There is a TL;DR (too long, didn't read) at the end of each paragraph.

The Game *campaign*:
starts off pretty good. Small tutorial basically tells you to take your guys, move them forward, kill stuff. easy matches no problem until right around mission 7 - 8 regardless of whether it's a story mission or the random missions, ♥♥♥♥ goes to hell way too quick. You go from: Oh hey, this is easy im having a good time to: wait what the ♥♥♥♥? Why can't I kill one building? Why is everything dying? I built everything or upgraded everything and im still getting pushed through? The difficulty goes from 1 to 100 way too quick. Some missions, if you don't build PERFECTLY or follow a strict guideline you WILL fail. Some of the alien mutations become WAY too hard to fight. It would probably be better if you gained Build Points over time, or if they gave you more for doing certain things, but overall this game sucks. There's no difficulty settings, and some missions litterlly depend on RNG. Whether or not the AI wants to send massive amounts of aliens to kill you, or just sit back and wait while you slowly struggle to kill the bases. Whether they get insane defensive mutations, or just ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ones like visible landmines that any solider can destroy at any time.
TL;DR:
- Campaign goes from easy to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ crazy way too fast -
- No difficulty settings -
- No room for error -
- not enough resources -

The Units Part 1:
Starts off with rifflemen, which can take care of pretty much everything unless there is a giant swarm of somekind, and not so great against buildings (turrets). The shotgun guys come in on mission two, which makes crowd control SO much better and a lot more fun, but in the same match you notice something that will cause you immediate brain sufferage, Turrets. High range and damage, never miss. But here's the thing. They Also do damage over time AND SLOW DOWN your units movement speed.
TL;DR
- Fun early game crowd control units -
- ♥♥♥♥ turrets -

Upgrades part 1:
At this point you're probably thinking, well how bad could it be? first mission *mission two* with turrets, I only lost a guy or two, and i get infinite respawns without consequences, it's fine. The game brings you to your first screen in-between missions where you can buy upgrades. The Very first thing I notice? "Single Mission Exhaustible Powerup" I'm like wait, the first thing I can afford is something that ISN'T permanent? Not only that but I have to rebuy it regardless or whether or not i pass or fail the mission? (these upgrades also cost more over time - like say if you have an upgrade to start the match with 1 shotgun guy who replaces a riflemen, but you don;t buy it, the price of said powerup increases mission affter mission. Starting cost is 2800, but near the end of the campaign, these one mission use powerups costs over $40000) The second thing in he menu that you can buy costs almost twice as much as what you can afford, which is a decent upgrade. allows you to build portable healing devices. But still, no artillery units.
TL;DR
- Single Mission Powerups that cost more over time and can only be used once - (THIS ♥♥♥♥ SHOULD NOT HAPPEN IN VIDEO GAMES)
- No artillery units -

Mission 3 (Upgrades part 1.5):
Seriously, they could have just put this in the previous mission. They introduce the first ability to destroy buildings, the "launch rocket" ability. Able to be used by any soldier. You have a certain amount of ammo (10) these rockets cost 2 ammo each. One is enough to kill a turret, and ammo can resupply over time OR you can grab ammo crates lying around. Not much I can complain about with this one. The range isn't OP, you still get hit at-least once or twice before using it. My complaint about this comes at LATER levels of the game where the rockets become almost useless, especially when enemy bases developpe certain mutations like shields. We get more one mission upgrades and one more permanent one, again, costing almost twice as much as what we currently earned,
TL;DR
- Introducing rocket launch -
- more one mission buffs -

The game goes on repeating this cycle, over and over. with little variation to units and upgrades. The difficulty however changes drastically. The aliens get stronger and stronger, their bases are more and more defended, while you get little ot not resources to compensate. At this point the game introduces "mutation" as I previously mentionned earlier. Which as I can observe, the aliens gain bonuses from what you destroy (♥♥♥♥♥♥ right?) The more buildings and nests you destroy the STRONGER the ENEMY gets! What the ♥♥♥♥ kind of sense does that make?
TL;DR
- Mutations: You're playing good? Having a good mission? let me fix that.

To bring this whiny post to a close, this game has GREAT potential. It has AMAZING potential. but somet hings need to be either reworked or changed. Simple as that. The upgrades are ♥♥♥♥, you need better late game tank units.
