Early Access Review
As a big fan of the anime series myself, I gave this a shot in CBT. None the less, I wasn't impressed.

Hit detection is god awful, hitboxes are god awful as well. The gameplay feels more akin to Blacklight Retribution than Call of Duty or Combat Arms.

(I do hate blacklight though, so that was bad for me.)

And the lack of graphical options. Hell, I couldn't even find an FOV slider.
While it is early access, I don't think people would understand. They had their first beta test months back, and the hit detection feels like it's 30 tick or even lower.


So is this game decent? It's decent, like a five out of ten mediocre at best decent. It won't live up to the popular shooters like CSGO; and if you want to compare this to other F2P games because its free, it won't love up to ijji-era AvA.

I'd play this game more but they'll have to fix the glaring issues first.


This game, as a big fan of the entire series (Watched the entire damn thing), I feel like this game is not worthy of the Ghost in the Shell title.

Me and Tachikuddles will be sure to bring up the hit registry to Neople!

Thanks for following up with us!

I will continue to play and at least see the game until release. It's fun but, I feel like the hit registry issues takes away from the core gameplay.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts - it's important for us to get as much feedback as possible, especially during Early Access period when we can really make a lot of changes before launch. We're super comitted to adding content that really ties into the Ghost in the Shell universe and offers an awesome experience to the GitS fanbase.

We hope to be able to address some of the concerns you mentioned, thanks for your feedback!

Hi, Operative. Thanks for giving First Assault a shot and providing your feedback. The developers at Neople are open to applying an FOV slider. Let us know how we can improve the game to make you feel more immersed in the world of Stand Alone Complex.
