Lemme edit this review, in light of some recent events. Squad has a great foundation and a ton of potential to be the best mil-sim experience out there. Perhaps it's lacking in some ways compared to arma, but they're really the only two at this level in the genre.

HOWEVER: Last year, OWI, the developers, replaced their CEO with Vlad Ceraldi who is quite the businessman, very successful in creating mobile games as well as taking investments from TENCENT, a Chinese-based publisher who also focuses on mobile games.

Squad, as I said, has great potential, and has already hosted some of my fondest gaming memories, but adding emotes will be the first step in a long downward spiral. The end of which, will be a game that is not worth my time or yours, let alone our money. Let's hope the devs backstep and focus on improving the game and adding relevant content.

Right now? The game is in a good place, but I will not recommend because I don't like the direction it's going.
