Freedom requires firepower. And boy am I free.

The Company pays a fair wage for honest, hard work. Plus, it's always hiring so you can always meet new work friends for a pint in the after hours.

As of right now, wait for a suspect AI update. They're all terminators that don't know fear, are willing to die over nothing and are willing to kill for less. Move too fast? Shot through wall because they can hear you. Move too slow? Head eyes the moment you make contact.

Another warehouse full to the brim with old Mosin-Nagant rifles has been found by a local notary, who has been handing them out like Halloween candy to bush-dwelling locals called Stalkers.

I spent 43 hours being reminded why I don't like hero shooters.

Awaiting optimization updates. I should be able to run the game but it stutters like mad. Seems fun, been hearing good things. Long load times, game starts out loud as all hell and runs poorly for now. Will update review after some bug patching.

From the go-to DayZ for a lower end computer to just another Roblox shooter. Not into it anymore, but if you like Phantom Forces this is for you.

Take the downvote with a grain of salt. I, personally, think the game is a great idea but a bit too ambitious for its time. The combat feels heavy, too heavy. Guns are not 30 pounds, they don't move as if they are 30 pounds. That, and the AI seems to be a bit too dumb. It seems like the game is too reliant on jumpscares that are downplayed by the fact I can roam everywhere with a 12 gauge at face level. I love the idea and can admire the gritty combat. But for me it seems too barebones.

Fun. Hard, but fun. Battlefield Hardcore, but better.

Prepare to be frustrated to tears while you try to imagine that you're having fun. Start your character over until you're broke and only have trash I could build in my garage to play with. Or hop into quickplay and throw skill-based matchmaking in the toilet. The choice is yours, how many hours will you never get back?
Edit: I still haven't figured that last part out.
