An amazing game with decent progression, But whoever made the end game missions is a madman and I wish the absolute worst upon them. The further you get into the map the more bullet sponge the AIs become which half don't make sense some enemies will just eat bullets and you'll die from a few, the main story missions will also make you want to pull your hair out unless you're literally a god of a player and do everything perfectly you'll be doing parkour or fighting op bosses and some missions if you die you'll straight up lose everything not binded to your character and even if your bag drops on the ground there is a chance it'll morph into the ground or wall and you can't even see or pick your stuff up. The PVP is half baked also there is almost no benefit to killing players as their barter items are not usable to craft your own equipment you can only sell them and get ripped off by the NPC vendors or try and auction their items back to them and the loot that does drop is readily available from the stores for cheap all you're doing is holding back eachothers progression. Most your deaths will probably be from the cancer story missions unless you're really bad or unlucky in PVP/PVE scenarios, the progression in crafting isn't bad until you get end game they put a cap on one of the resources you'll need end game that you can only get from weekly or one daily challenge which is kinda good so people don't just rush through the game and get bored but also sucks for people who can't grind everyday they should of just increased the cost of the resource and added more ways to obtain it not from crafting which you'll probably have it all done before you can even craft it as the hideout resource requirements are a bit ridiculous, that being said they done the hideout ina better way then tarkov did in my opinion. They also need more servers I live in eastern Canada and the lowest my ping will be is 70-80ms which is cancer in PVP and in general you'll feel a delay in everything you do unless you happen to live next to the only or few NA servers, I've also seen people complain in the reviews saying this game is pay to win I don't think so the few things you can buy like skipping battlepass levels which costs up to 800 USD which i doubt many people are doing and even the stuff you can get from the battlepass are on par with the craftable equipment you can get just by playing and the few guns you can buy with money are actually dogwater you'll get better stuff in no time so its not worth that either. Although I do have a lot of problems with how the game works I do still recommend it if you like stalker lore and PVP/PVE looter shooters for a free game its definitely worth trying mainly with friends if you can a lot of the players are helpful to one another if you're on the same faction that is.
