Looks very dull and boring, is it true?

[Onion Powder]

Do i got it all wrong watching these gameplay videos that really make the game look really slow paced and kinda dull or is the gameplay really slow, im not expecting CoD style gameplay but it seems like you walk for 20 mins, shoot 4-5 unintelligent NPC's loot 2 boxes then do it all over again? Someone with 6-10 + hours should comment and let me know it its all really like this, or it just seems that way in videos.

It's not CoD. If you're not into slow paced tactical battles(checking corners, clearing houses room by room, looking for food/water/medical/gear/etc), then it's not for you.

This isn't a battle royale, you're meant to take your time. In the outer easy zones, the NPCs are sparse, but they'll react to gunfire; the closer you get to the medium/hard areas, they have better weapons, armor and are in greater numbers.

Most of what you're seeing are most likely the easier enemies in the starting zones, which are meant to give you time to learn the game before you branch out into the harder areas with much more enemy density.

I know its not supposed to be like cod, hense the reason i stated that in my post lol, but thank you for the rest of the information, I like tactical shooters, adds a nice steady pace, but it really seems slower than it should be, I hope the update these NPC's and make them a bit more intelligent that what I have seen. I take starting areas into consideration, but they should still be intelligent.

I think they're kinda testing what the engine can do under load from the community; and after they start optimizing it more they'll be able to really get the NPCs where they need to be. I'm ok with enemies being more aware and reacting better; but I don't want NPCs that can see me from 100yards away and then snipe me before I know they were even there.

The game is highly detailed, you're taking your time and checking pixels; and you can't have an NPC that is reacting to you at the speed of a computer, while your brain is deciding whether that's a branch in the shade of a tree, or if you're looking at an NPC.

I'll take AI enemies that don't react in a split second and give me time to react, than NPCs that roll up mag dumping at my face because it's in their programming to instantly recognize me as 'enemy player = kill." =p

Good point, well said

stay miles away , very bad performance and server problems , bots are unkillable and hard to spot , they can one tap you from 200m away , there is zero loot so once your out of ammo or heals your ♥♥♥♥♥ and you have to run for miles for not losing your equipment , i mean maybe whit friends its worth but solo is horrible , plus the game is full of players whit supporter edition that don't have to worry about loot and they can carry everything everytime , i mean even if the performance were good this game is not worth , is made only for teams whit supporter edition and 3.000$ pc. I mean if they hit you multiple times you have to waste all the heals for recover and you lose a lot of time only for that , but the main problem is that there is no loot in the houses so you will find only useless drinks or small bags , if there was more useful loot maybe was another story but in the end is made only for the supporter edition owners. (p2w) and i m not talking about pvp , i m talking about easier missions in pve , even for that good luck whit standard edition and if you play alone , you will notice everything i said here.

You don't need to play for 10 hours to answer your question about how far you have to travel. There are spots all over the map with AI. From towns, to random houses.. to hidden spots and military areas. Your tasks will keep you in the action.

If you decide to run through the forest and avoid any landmark on the map, then it will be very quiet for you. Also, it can be very slow paced. When AI is functioning properly, sprinting through the streets will get you killed VERY quickly.

Think of it like Ready Or Not, but in a large persistent map.

[Black Rain]

Just watch Shroud play, its a boring walking sim with a beautiful jungle and dumb AI oh and currently heli campers lol.

This is an extreme exaggeration.

I have yet to be one tapped from 200m away. They most certainly are not 'unkillable'. Though, they can be spongy, due to server performance.

You do not have to run for miles unless you run out into the middle of the jungle. And there's no point in doing that. LZ's keep you close to the big POI's.

Supporter edition only gives you more storage. That's it. The items can be lost easily, and those items aren't even that good. It's not P2W at all. That makes no sense.

But yes, it does require a better PC. It's 2024, and every year it will get harder and harder to play games with your potato PC. Eventually, you will need to upgrade. The biggest issue is that it's EA Alpha. They need some time to optimize and Nvidia still needs to put out a driver for it.

Give it some time.

LoL i bet i have a better pc than you , i m not talking about fps i can get easly 150+ if i lower settings , the problem is the server , the bots , the zero loot , and idiots like you. Btw it will die soon if they don't fix and update it , becouse really is made only for teams whit supporter edition , not for solo and standard edition players.

How am I an idiot? Just because I'm responding to you? Did I hurt your feelings?

Get a helmet.

Games in early alpha are going to need time to be optimized. They will need time to fix the launch bugs.

The supporter pack doesn't make it P2W. Sure, you get a bigger storage. That's it. You still have the same ability to make money as anyone who spent more money. You are just making things up.

Any game that allows players to team up will be more difficult when you are solo. Good job, you figured it out. Maybe you should stick to PvE.

Thank you gentlemen

[[MNI] Kisune]

One more thing to add maybe since a lot of people were quite surprised bye it
This game Handles Health quite different then most Games
Basicaly you have around 4 different Health pools (3 for Organs and then Blood)
organs die Easilie if hit but Blood is quite a lot (You can kinda think of it like Blood being your healt for the entire mission while Organs are what kills you in 1 firefight)
AI works the same way so if you dont hit The organs they can take a lot of Bullets meanwhile 1 or 2 hits to Organs and they drop right away

Just as a Example of how Huge the Blood Pool is I had a Fight where i rounded a Corner and Accidentaly aggroes a good chunk of the Starting town before
So had around 14 enemys suddenly spot me and had probably roughly 20 hits and while i did have to med up (Stopping bleeding mostly) my blood was still at halfway or so afterwards

[Dr.Skitters]

If you enjoy Arma youll love this when you can actually get good servers

[GerthQuake]

Yes it is.

If you don't like head-shotting an AI multiple times - only for him to turn 120 degrees and facetap you, this game isn't for you.

It's a f*cking dumpsterfire.

[Mindr0x]

I always laugh when seeing people play this like Ready or Not, being all slow and tactical as if the game is that hardcore. I literally just run and gun it like a CoD campaign and have no problems finishing whatever tasks I might be on.

I'm like 99% sure that they had a release date for this summer originally (or atleast a couple months from now), until Tarkovs Unheard edition nonsense happened and they tried to capitalise on that. The game will probably be good in around 3-4 years, but not anytime soon.
