How's the game actually?

[Artrysa]

So a bunch of people are saying it's dead, a scam, whatever. But what is it actually like? Is it playable? Does it work well? Is there a healthy playerbase and good server connections? If the game is fun I don't care that it won't get new updates, not everything has to be live service.
So, what's it actually like?

my fault, not the first page, the first 3 fxcking pages.

Yeah it plays fine, but you're asking to get ripped off. If you play NATO servers, you could ~maybe~ find one full-ish game during peak hours. If you're based in SEA or anywhere else, the playerbase is effectively 0.

In NA where I played, there was one non-official server left. It's a heavily left wing server themed around sexual innuendo, where you'll see non-stop messages from trans, furry, non-binary, etc talking about their bodily functions. But if you mention that you voted Trump or feel off-put by the 24/7 LGBT stuff, you catch a quick permaban and the mods will gaslight you with accusations of using racist slurs (even though they can't point out a single slur you ever said). Even on the official servers, the devs set up a ban bot to whittle down the playerbase if they say mean words while shooting human characters in the face. The last time a dev communicated with us here on Steam, it was to make a fake accusation of being a pedophile against one of their own customers.

If that all sounds good to you, hop on in. The water's cold!

artrysa the game plays well and there are enough things to try out , as for servers there are two main live ones the NA and EU from official and some other community servers which are half filled most times , always at any hour at least 1 server is 250/250 so depending on your location the lag might be bearable. in april 6 2025 it will be 365 days since last update , personally i do believe they will update the game at some point. for chatting and politics look above , NA sever chat is like that while EU chat is not used like that 90% of time.

edit: as a non fps gamer that wanted to pick up a chill fps game i picked this and dont regret it. 500h.

my fault king you right buy the game and its skin packs bro, goated game I was actually lying earlier completely disregard my previous posts, go give the developers some money, maybe they will release an update for the first time since 2023!

It was an amazing game, it had so much potential, but the devs abandoned it. There are some pretty big gameplay issues, like ridiculously unbalanced armor/guns, and weird hitboxes. So, even if you wanted to get a dying game, there are some bugs that make it near-unplayable.

What guns are unbalanced? Everyones gun selections tends to be very diverse. Unless you're talking about guns being severely underpowered, which if that's a dealbreaker for you sure, but it's a fairly small portion of them.

Also the hitboxes are fine.

Uh... I think that's what is implied when I say they're unbalanced, yeah?

The hitboxes absolutely suck.

Oh yeah my fault, you would've said that they were overbalanced if you were talking about them being overpowered, right. No but a few guns being underpowered is really a non issue, just don't use them. The vast majority are balanced perfectly and provide their own unique advantages depending on your playstyle.

I play with a ton of people that nolife this game, and looking at chat, I have never seen or heard of a complaint about hitboxes. Nor have I experienced them myself, aside from invalids I get once every like 4 hours when I play NA (again. non issue).

No I would not have. "Overbalanced" is not even a word in this context.

That is wildly inaccurate lol.

The same bug every 4 hours is a terrible reoccurring issue. They should have remediated that MONTHS ago. I experienced problems way more than that, also.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

That's not a bug, that's a side effect of the majority of hitreg systems out there. Besides, in those 4 hours, conservatively, I'm getting about 400 kills, MAYBE losing out on one due to networking, in the already rare case that I'm playing on NA, yeah, is a non issue, bug or not.

Hitreg not working like it should, aka a bugged hitreg, aka a bug.

Something makes me think you don't actually know how hitreg systems work.

Right. And in your online shooter games that you develop you just let every hit go through, as long as the client tells you that it did, right? You wouldn't want bugs in your hitreg.

It is painfully obvious that you have no idea what you're talking about. 10 seconds on reddit and you would exceed the knowledge you have about hitreg.
