[edit3] Additional 354 hours played. Breakers has tightened up the ping limits so now less popular parts of the world like oceania are literally dead. Most of us are VPN'ing to get games. This causes issues since the game has ♥♥♥♥ netcode.

But crossplay is on the horizon. There is a slight chance the game will improve if it gets here, but they keep making the game worse the older it gets. All new content is still added to the game gacha pool. I'm still missing some major game changing skills, most banners I'm pulling are giving me full 10 pull dupes. There is still no pity system, they have only recently made more rare pulls give more spirits for the trouble.

The way they're going, Crossplay will happen but matchmaking will limit people per console.

[edit2] Why yes Steam, I have played 155 additional hours and would love to edit my review

THEY AIN'T DONE ♥♥♥♥

[edit] Season 2 has added a ton of quality of life fixes and has stopped you from being able to play raider except via the exclusive queue. People have earned 30 priority trying the raider flex queue so that's 30 survivor games played because it wasn't time to have a raider match. For comparisons sake, if you lived somewhere where EVERYONE was trying to play raider, to do weekly challenges which still happen and still want raider progress, you would need 8 at worst, only going higher due unforseeable luck.

Congratulations, you added a ton of new players joining the selfish queue that needs to be the smaller queue and pissed off everyone else who was willing to play this game at playercounts of 100 and were willing to share the raider spot while doing so. Also, since we can't play in lobbies with friends while being raider, all the matches I played with a friend last hight has done nothing to get me closer to playing a raider game. Just about ready to stop playing this game.

[Original Review]

Fantastic core of a game surrounded by practices that look worse than they are.

Has a battlepass, only one track everyone gets access to. Can pay for tiers using tokens if you can't wait.

Has a gacha system to earn new skills and characters, you get 10 free rolls to start with, and I got 2 dupes within those 8 rolls. You'd be a fool to pay for more rolls with those odds of getting dupes.

Only objective reason not to play is if you want to exclusively play Raider. Game uses a priority system so everyone gets a turn, and it weighs its weekly battlepass challenges such that it wants everyone to play both roles, survivor weighted more of course.

This game also isn't for you if you just want to be Goku and destroy Cell. Charge lets you fight the raider for a time, but you don't have the energy to solo the raider. Even if you wish for Ultimate Charge you will lose 1v1 assuming a competent Raider. This is a team game that has an emphasis on dogpiling on the raider at some point.

Now they're starting to get random mid-season banners, hold off on trying to get all the unlocks at the start of the game, use the banner that has the current special drops. You will fill your survivor inventory fast enough and there is no dupe prevention even with 10 draws.
