Early Access Review
Day 1 review
So I have played just over 5 hrs of this game, its pretty fun and fast paced.

Skills
The special skills when used properly are really cool, you earn points by getting kills, capturing points, etc 200 points and you can use you 1st tier skill, 400 points unlocks tier 2. Tier 2 skill range from getting an extra rocket, to invisibility for team mates in the vicinity. having a group of people invisible should grant some epic tactical advantage but it just doesn't, people just run off and do their thing and it feels weirdly gimmicky.

Weapons
Standard FPS weapons nothing new or existing here, you start with 3 weapons an SMG, An Assault rifle, and a sniper. the hit box detection seems very random sometimes you unload an entire clip into someone only to have them turn around and kill you in one or two shots. the bullets don't even spray that much they just don't hit.

Maps
The maps are limited both in size and in number, the spawn points are awful and predictable you frequently spawn in the open while the enemy has cover. there seems to be some sort of free run system that allows you to jump over boxes and through windows... sometimes, random things you can jump over others things that you want to climb and jump over are impossible for no reason. there is also no advantage to doing it, not slow-mo or anything and you can just as easily crouch jump for the same effect.

Characters
This is one of the best bits of the game, each characters has their own skill, and they have the original voice actors. The whole cast of Section 9 is there. The characters models look great too.

UI
The UI is clunky, and I am having issues wading through the menus and sub menus, they are nicely themed in G.I.T.S style and I like them, but they really REALLY need to be refined and streamlined.

GamePlay
Gameplay is quick and fast-paced, and if not for the RNG bullets it would be fun, unfortunately because everything moves so fast there is little need for team work, in some regards it feels like a CS clone, an unpolished clone.

Final thoughts
I really like this game, or rather what it could be, it needs a lot of polish and rebalancing, it needs something to keep people playing, you level up, you rank up your guns and unlock parts and mods but it all seems so pointless, currently I am level 6 it took me 5 hrs to get there and I have only unlocked one more gun, which feels same as the lower tier counter part.
