Disappointment of the year goes to...

[BubbaLovesYa-TTV]

...Gray Zone Warfare!!

I'm very disappointed. I really wanted some fresh air in the extraction shooter genre and a true Tarkov competitor but it isn't looking good.

- Loot is insanely boring.

- Performance is ridiculously awful because of undisableable settings.

- No way to change factions so if your friend joins a different faction by accident you're screwed.

- AI is ridiculously dumb.

- Teamkilling has no punishment which makes aforementioned faction system just pointless and a hassle

- Walking simulator to even see another player which makes the dumb AI even more of an issue as they're not fun to fight

- Frequent crashes.

- Bipolar and non-sensical mantling and climbing systems that have no logic to them, leaving you to mantle some walls but not mantle others that are the same if not lower height.

- No simple QoL like toggle ADS or Sprint

You might say that this is silly given the game is in beta, but this is a borderline unacceptable release state. What's even more concerning is I watched gameplay 4 MONTHS ago where content creators pointed out many of these problems and the devs never fixed it. It seems like they just don't care or have no sense. The added fact that there's extra editions of the game so early makes me really skeptical and cynical about the future of the game and the dev team behind it.

This game need a lot more time in the oven, not worth for now. Performence and enemy AI should be their priority. Imagine thinking it's okay to play a first person shooter with 60fps on 2024 with frame generations increasing input lag. YIKES!

Russia's fault

Yes. I want my money back. Happy that I just bought the 35€ Version...

Watch out you're going to incite the "60 FPS is enough for a PvP shooter!!" crowd. (Which is extra funny since many people can't get 60)

I 100% agree with your comment about needing more time in the oven. It's shocking how many games I've seen release just 6 months too early and die because of it. I would imagine the CEO or whoever was responsible for releasing the game has a lot of yes men surrounding him or the studio was in financial trouble and they needed a surge of income.

60fps performance is ok if you are a console peasant, to me a shooter should AT LEAST aim for average 100fps to be enjoyable

That is what made me request refund right now.

Disappointment of the year or scam of the year? You be the judge.

[Denizen]

I said this exact thing while I was playing.

Hot. Garbage.

[DarK]

I wish I could say that I feel sorry for the ones that got the supporter edition. But I can't. God must love i****s.

[RaidenFury]

For being mixed, it sure seems like there's a lot of people defending a clearly broken, and not even EA ready title. Much cope.

Overhyped~

Its literally in early access. Anyone with a brain knows the game is far from finished when they made the purchase. Buying it now means youre playtesting it lol

Everyone here is saying it wasn't even early access ready? Or did you just not read before throwing yourself infront of the line of fire?

Charging money to play test is ethically wrong. There should be a lawsuit against this behavior. It's only going to get worse as players keep forking over money blindly and then justifying it by saying "it's early access!"

That's a pretty ridiculous statement considering Steam's early access program has brought us some amazing games.
