Why the bad reviews?
whats the deal with this game?

In here you will get the in-game currency to upgrade your weapons and buy new tiers including premium currency. Premium currency has no use for now depending on how much you have. The only things you can buy with the premium currency is the FOUNDERS PACK - SUPPORT FRAGLAB TRINKET - SUPPORT FRAGLAB PATCH which basically is a 'donation' type of thing that supports Frag Lab. Nothing else and nothing more.

Another thing the season pass is giving you by simply playing and grinding our game is cosmetics, a season XP boost in the season pass, some skins, and other items. You can find that out yourself.

When doing tasks and expeditions you can achieve blueprints and these blueprints can be used to craft a modification. Modifications grant you 'skins' for weapons even weapons you do not own yet. If you get lucky by receiving, let's say legendary skin. You 'could' have a bit of an advantage. Let's say, 20% quicker aiming for example.

So, to keep it as short as possible. There is no P2W system nor will there be. It only depends on the player playing and grinding the game, finishing tasks, and expeditions. Want a bit more cosmetics, currency, and others? Then buy the season pass which is optional.

With all of this being said, let's stay relevant to the topic of the thread and enjoy Shatterline.

This game deserves every bad review it gets.

It's not fun to be dying every 100 milliseconds to toxic players with custom loadouts while newer players are stuck with ♥♥♥♥ gear... and have microtransactions pushed down our throats with no guarantee that we'll even be able to play the game 10 years from now since it's a "live service" model piece of ♥♥♥♥.

Toxic players and custom loadouts? How do you know, that the people you are dying to are toxic? There is no /all chat. If you had the brains yourself, you could/would customize your own loadout.

New player stuck with ♥♥♥♥ gear? Well that statement alone tells me you're dog water at the game and completely ignorant.

"No guarantee to play the game the next 10 years.." Yeah there is no guarantee of that with any game MissIgnorant.

No, he's not done being a ♥♥♥.

You are expecting too much from games... the game is amaizing and great alternative to Apex and cod...

Quake 3 is far better than this ♥♥♥♥.

No, she's right. The community is toxic. You are a great example of that.

You'd rather stomp on new players rather than play with people of your own skill level, also while abusing your "META" loadout when a new player can't use other guns let alone any attachments.

Also since this is a "Game As A Service" it is true that there is no guarantee that you'll be able to still play the game 10 years from now. The servers could shut down, and nobody would be able to play because this game has no offline mode or even the ability to self host your own servers to play with friends.

im just thinking logically dude, fact of the matter is that there are going to be some games that don't work in certain situations for example I can't play Destiny 2 because for whatever reason it crashes my internet within 2 minutes of launching the game, the game itself isnt bad i just have ♥♥♥♥ internet. also im literally just giving my feedback and poking holes in nonsensical logic for instance pointing out the game isnt pay to win when the only things you can pay real money for don't give you any advantage over anyone else makes it not pay to win and even if you count that as being a fanboy like so what? is it wrong to want a game to succeed or poke holes in haters logic
Many people are having this issue, and we're talking about SHATTERLINE, not another game with more gear to handle like D2 does with events, weapons, armor, abilities, loading different Guardians, etc. I'm certain there are more people like you, just like the other person, of whom you said "Sounds like a you problem", when it isn't.

I see the pay to win thing brought up a lot. While this game does not have pay to win aspects at the moment. It does worry me alot that there are skins to guns that give noticeable and gameplay influencing buffs to weapons. While you can't buy the skins now, who is to say it won't happen down the road. The system is there and it really feels like all they would have to do is flip a switch on and gradually start introducing paid weapon skins with effects. If they don't do that then its not pay to win, but the second they start selling any of those skins then yes the gasme does start entering the pay to win territory as the raw skill of someone becomes less of a factor. That is my main concern when it comes to skins that have actual weapon effect buffs as its such an easy system to easily turn pay to win. Additionally, the idea that weapon skins are less grinding to get and more of rng to get is also a bit rough.

While i do agree with you one point i see people making a mistake is that modifications are not skins, there is alot of skins that only change the apperance, the modficiations change the weapon stats and appearence, making it look different.

I know the difference between modifications and skins. There are actual skins that change both the appearance of the gun outside of adding modification while adding buffs to the weapons stats or building upon a certain mechanic of the weapon.

Come to SEA servers, then. For me PvP turned out unplayable (although I haven't tried a TYO only server yet, last time I was connected to Singapore so that one is my fault in part).
Nothing like being instantly spawn-lasered across the whole map in the escort mission by some twit who turned bolt-action sniper into pretty much an LMG.

This dude is one of the dumbest people alive. In no way that could be interpreted by anyone under any circumstances can this game be considered p2w, there is literally nothing you can buy in the cash shop aside from 2 skins, the battle pass and a trinket.
