Fighting a boss over and over, because of a bad load out is not fun. I stopped playing when the game was doing the same thing over and over. Moreover, the game keeps crashing, and I have to redo an hours worth of mission again. No thanks, waste of $60.

Early Access Review
This game is just okay, IMO. The game does look great, the intro mission is really cool and creepy, but then meh... The controls are not super responsive, at least they were not for me. The crouch button was delayed, and when I would go to grab a ladder or rope I would miss and have to hit 'f' again if I didn't get grabbed first (I always was grabbed first before making it back up). Also, I don't like that once you get caught you just have to spectate until the end of the game. Yes, you can be rescued by a teammate, but I am often just left to wander around until they run to freedom. Next, if you are not playing with friends the "fun" factor is hit or miss. Sometimes the group is cool, and other times everyone just goes off on their own and no one really cares what happens. Also, there are often very few hosts to join, and I have been kicked a few times because they were friends and didn't want any outsiders. The last thing I didn't like was the missions get repetitive after a while. Yes, you do different search missions, but its really just the same thing each time. I'm either looking for cryptograms or looking for evidence / missing friend. So, while the game is not terrible, it's not great either and hopefully, it will be improved upon as they progress.

Na, this game looked cool, but it is ridiculously hard... I can get down to 12 and then it gets way harder than it needs too. I gave up after three hours of play on one damn level..

I played this game twice (almost) I stoped after 40 mins the first run and did a playthrough on the second, by only using the axe. I really enjoyed the game. The story was interesting (not original, but interesting in a video game), the game looks really good, and the playstyle was engaging but not to much of a hand hold. You need to think a little to get through the game. Moreover, the game is only about an hour long (per Alex and my experience).

My biggest issue with the game is the hitbox. If you are shooting or swining the axe you have to time it just right. The guns will sometimes miss no matter if you are dead on acurate (neither you or the monster are moving), and the axe will miss if you just swing wildly. I died a few times because my axe would not connect with the creature. However, its not so bad that I wouldn't play it again, I would. I want to do a nightmare run in the furture, but for the value this is a must play.

I fell in love with this game, but it took time. At first this game seems overly complicated. However it does get better, by better I mean amazing.

I've only ever played as Vanu so I'm biased but you can pick from two other unique factions. Each faction has strength and weaknesses. When you first log in you get a basic run down of the pros of that faction , so there is help in that regard.

The customization is great, and you get six or seven player types (medic, infiltrator, etc) plus several ground and air vehicles to choose from (all can be customized). Plus your faction pays you certs every min so you can load out in a vehicle or Max about every 5 mins.

The game looks amazing and the immersion is excellent. From the sound of crickets at night to the roar of aircraft overhead, this game gets intense.

Speaking of intense, the battles (good battles) can be down right nerve wrecking. Hundreds of fighters, tanks moving across the battle zone air craft raining bombs and bullets flashes of rounds from every direction, it can leave you exhausted after two or three long sessions.

The game is also good about giving you good starter weapons. You earn certs for upgrades by kills, controlling points, overtaking bases etc. as you earn these certs (different from pay you get from your faction for vehicles and maxes) you can upgrade abilities, weapons. You can customize your character to excel at different things. Maybe you want to focus on taking out enemy vehicles, or you want to mow down hoards of other enemy - you choose...

In my opinion this is the best mmo/fps out. Nothing compares to the massive maps (four or five continents) with snow, jungle, desert, and a multitude of bases. The mount of weapon and character customization options. The ranking system is fun and keeps you going, along with rankings and ribbons, and xp... Also it's free!!! I still can't believe it's free.

So it took time but I love this game and have stopped playing anything else. This is however not a perfect game. There are log-on issues occasionally, glitches (after I play as a Max and go back to infiltrator my infiltrator no longer cloaks) but overall it is 100% worth the investment of time. Also spend time on watching videos about how to play. YouTube or in your player load-out screen they have basic training tutorials. So get out there, have fun and play with friends or just join a squad and work together ( this is key).

Its a good concept for the Mafia Series. However, with the obvious mist step with releasing this game at a "peasants" 30fps; it was an omen to what was to come. The game looks a lot better after the patch. However, it is very buggy, and freezing in combat or emptying an entire clip into an enemy, only to have him kill you with one shot is not my idea of fun. It seems that a AAA game would be better equipped to handle the power of PC, but this game seems to have a difficult time and likes to crash, or glitch out while playing.

Additionally, it is kind of boring. I mean after the story line is done the game just becomes mundane. I played 8 hrs. and I'm done. It will now sit and collect "dust" until I get around to deleting the game from my SSD.
