its boring, just because it goes for free every year doesn't mean its worth it

unfinished story

This game is incredibly over rated, it captivates you at first enough to get you past the playtime that you cant refund the game, but only 10 hours into the game I am already incredibly bored after just one play through, the gameplay loop is very repetitive and the mechanics are much more simply than they look, the starting base barely matters besides the screen you will be forced to look for hours because it doesnt matter where you place anything, despite the looks of it having holes and such implying you should think about it when in reality everything functions the exact same regardless of location, you will never have to fight enemies in your base, instead there is just a flat chance of being "raided" every night and losing items through a text event. I'm sure this game looked good when it first released as there wasnt really any "anti war" games back then, I know that a lot of people think so highly of this game because of its "anti war" themes rather than the actual gameplay, but the game barely even depicts actual war, you'll never see any actual battles besides the ones between your solo character when scavenging and very basic npcs with gameplay more fitting of a mobile game, you'll just be told that houses are being shelled and the military is committing atrocities but you'll never see it, its only depicted through walls of text, which there are very few of, so you'll be seeing the same events over and over again completely destroying the immersion. It feels much less like an active warzone and more like a generic zombie survival/abandoned city setting.
Overall the game feels unfinished and lacking content, normally this kind of game would have plenty of mods to fix that but there are not any real game changers beyond difficulty modifiers, if you like replay value you'll find things boring very quickly, if you value story and themes you'll be blue balled because there is no story or lore to be found.

Best unfinished game ever

Red sun, red sun over paradise
Red sun, red sun over paradise
Golden rays of the glorious sunshine
Sending down such a blood-red light
Now, the animals slowly retreat to the shadows, out of sight
Arid winds blow across the mountains
Giving flight to the birds of prey
In the distance machines come to transform Eden, day by day
Only love is with us now
Something warm and pure
Find the peace within ourselves
No need for a cure
When the wind is slow, when the fire's hot
The vulture waits to see what rots
Oh, how pretty, all the scenery
This is nature's sacrifice
When the air blows through with a brisk attack
The reptile tail ripped from its back
When the sun sets
We will not forget the red sun over paradise
Red sun

Great game

I can't say that this game doesn't push mircotransactions but it is a very fun game. After you get past the beginning stage (level 10) the game does get a bit grindy, but at least the grinding is done by winning matches. The match making can sometimes by a bit bad though.

This game is great, orginal, stratedgy and fun. However it has a lot of flaws and was lacking content. So what did the devs do they fixed the game AS A PAID DLC and from then on, they haven't touched the game for 2 years we were expecting there to be a full, complete game by now but no. This is game is complete waste of time the devs just grabbed our money and ran off and now they are working on other games when this one is still broken as hell. I've lost all faith.

We were promised a complete game uber, this game was a waste of my money.

11/10

11/10 does have some metas but overall its a really good game
