Pure love and nostalgia.

I see a lot of potential in this game and want to emphasize the positives rather than write a negative review that might discourage future attempts. The art style and overall theme are fantastic, and I appreciate how some genuine space missions have been incorporated into the game with fun twists. While I’ve heard it described as great in its own right, I initially felt let down by the story, especially after playing titles like Skyrim and Mass Effect. I expected a richer narrative and instead found a plot that felt less developed.

Many side quests have intriguing concepts, like xeno and mech warfare, but the atmosphere could be more intense and the storylines expanded. It reminds me of Skyrim's Stormcloak vs. Imperial conflict, where the grand scale of the war isn’t fully realized in gameplay. Despite having invested many hours, I’ve yet to encounter a mech in a mission, which feels surprising given their prominence in the lore.

Overall, I love the direction it’s headed but feel the execution could be improved. I’m optimistic that the modding community will help fill in the story gaps, and I’m excited to see what the upcoming DLC will bring!

Good game all around. Remake looks beautiful <3.

One of the best "party" games to play with friends. Its a lot like the board game Mafia or the G-mod game mode TTT.

The game offers a slower, more tactical experience, blending elements comparable to Battlefield 4 and Insurgency Sandstorm. Overall, it's a great "realistic" hierarchy MilSim shooter that requires excellent communication, coordination, and role-playing (Squad Leader, Rifleman, Medic, Grenadier, etc.).

If you're new to MilSim games, this is a perfect introduction. It offers a way to pick up basic military lingo without diving straight into the complexity of ARMA. The gunplay is sharp, and the suppression mechanics enhance the immersion.

There is something about running around New York as an operator taking out radical extremist groups. I wish I could return and play this game at its peak now that I understand statistics.
