TLDR: the game has a lot to offer that other tactical shooters don't have, but it has slow updates and can still improve in certain things. However, its uniqueness makes it appealing.

This game's sandbox and customization are its greatest strengths, but that is it for me. The main appeal that this game has for me is that it is a sandbox game, unlike other tactical shooters such as Ready or Not, Zero Hour, or Insurgency Sandstorm.

The customization for this game is the best you will likely get with this genre if you include character and weapon customization. Compared to Zero Hour and Ready or Not, the weapon customization is much more in-depth and has many more choices than the games mentioned earlier.

The maps for this game are what make this game, and they are large, allowing for engagements from long to short range; however, the CQC situations in this game aren't as good compared to games such as Zero Hour or Ready or Not, which is understandable as those games are solely CQC.

The gunplay and feeling are fine; I would place it below Ready or Not and Insurgency Sandstorm and above Zero Hour, with the gunplay feeling slightly clunky compared to the games above it.

The atmosphere and graphics for this game are pretty good. The A.I. is mid(note: I'm writing this before update 1033, where A.I. is to be improved); it is okay as of the moment, but enemies feel basic(they feel like gmod enemies, imo).

Single-player is not where this game shines; maps are often too large to enjoy as a single-player, and A.I. can kill you quickly(as expected, though). With the lack of something like A.I. squadmates or a story, there isn't much going for it(I'm pretty sure they're going to add bot squad members, but I don't think anytime soon). Multiplayer, however, is where this game shines through, whether it be co-op or PVP (I don't spend a lot of time in PVP, though). The Ground Branch multiplayer experience with others is the main reason I play this game, as it can be either casual or sweaty. In co-op specifically, the ability to change the difficulty of the bots assists with tailoring your experience; PVP is dependent on the people(of course), but again, I need to play more of it to say anything.

I'm writing this review before the release of update 1033, which could shift my perspective(such as in A.I. and gunplay), but I have no plans to update my review unless I feel I need to change the points I made.

$60 update

tbh i liked ds2 more

I absolutely love this game, but at it's current state I can't say it's worth buying except for the campaign.

my friends don't like me anymore

i spent money on this. And it was well worth it.

it's a problem when i get more enjoyment from among us' battle pass rather than halos; but yet, i still felt more joy progression-wise in among us compared to this game.

i just finished my first playthrough. amazing for being free.

i can't even load in. poggers.

i like the game.
