No one reads my reviews any ways.

Gameplay: Fun
Visuals: It's 2024, visuals are good.
Controls: They are crisp.
Replay ability: It's a looter shooter, 3rd person, survival game. It's got everything from casual elements to Grind it out and be Epic. I've got almost 200 hours in. I would say it's Replayable. hahaha.

It's fun Single player and with your friends. You can even allow others to build on your territory to help you get buffs for machinery.
All in All. It's a fun Game. Plus, It's free. If you want to buy the cosmetics and stuff go for it. If not, you're not missing anything.
You're friends and even build your house for you using purchased cosmetics.

My only big complaints are: The Deviants at the house don't need collision physics. Cause they push you around while you are trying to do things in your territory. The purchasable cosmetics are limited and rather blah at the moment. You can't change from Male to Female in appearance once you've started. So you have to create another character if you don't like your look. Oh, and your purchased stuff is server and character bound. So that sucks. Otherwise, the game itself is very enjoyable. I recommend it.

The Servers are better and getting in to play is smooth at the moment. The game is a sheer pleasure to play. It is the Starship Troopers game that we all needed. It's silly fun and super addictive. The things that happen while playing with friends and strangers is brilliant. Keep up the fantastic work. This game is Brilliant.

It's just fun. The characters are cute and hilarious. The game play is simple and addictive. I fully recommend it.

I've beat the story. Which is a cool Story. Rather cheesy but 80's action movie tropey. The kombat is decent and fun. I get they are trying to do something new with the Franchise but Honestly, Not a fan. The Kameo thing isn't worth it. I prefer my Original Characters. The new Character Models all look the Same. They don't feel independent.
I was hoping the Van Damme thing would be more of an impact but it still Says Johny Cage for everything. It's just lacking. The visuals are pretty. Kinda Too friendly and pretty. At the moment I honestly can't recommend this game.
Also the Persistent Online status for EVERYTHING, IS GARBAGE!!!!. I don't play online, I don't battle online, I don't do the online for this game. Let me not be connected to ONLINE for EVERYTHING. Invasion needs to be ONLINE????
Anyways. If you have MK11 go back to it till they get this fleshed out more.

Graphics, very nice.
Controls, butter smooth.
Audio, high quality.
Replayability, Very High.
Team work, Much needed and highly entertaining.

Overall, This game has been a blast. It's ability to make you want to come back for more, is very refreshing.

I'm not the best player so I get killed by Player Characters often but I've also been able to return the favor. The joy of teamwork and missions and accomplishment in this game has been wickedly fun and entertaining.

The Warzone 2.0 parts of the game are totally worth playing. I'm a fan of DMZ myself.

The MW2 Campaign is FANTASTIC. The story, the immersion, the suspense, the action all hit on high levels and it's like playing your favorite military action movie. Granted the campaign costs money to purchase but it's worth the price in the end.

This has been a fun experience. I didn't think I was going to like it but I do and even my friends who don't play these kinds of games are having a blast.

I have 1 request though. Make DMZ allowable for 4 man teams to start OR allow your clans to drop in as 3 man teams and join the same server to link up and party together.

Massive complaint. Steam Servers crash or drop and you get kicked from the game and LOSE ALL YOUR STUFF. That's not cool.

Only played solo so far. Also a reminder this is Early Access. Getting use to the controls didn't take to long but I had to look in the options to learn. This is a Tactical Shooter and you have to have patience and take your time. So far with only 3 hours of gameplay into it, I'm enjoying the level of immersion that I'm getting. I like that it's PVE and NOT PVP. I like the amount of detail that is in the game so far and hope to see it only get better. They do have warnings when you are messing with the graphical options to let you know it may make your experience not as enjoyable as it could be, which I appreciate. So I am tinkering with that to see what my rig can handle. The Bot AI partners aren't that bad. They take orders well. Some of the animations are a bit off. Like telling a guy to lockpick a door and he's in the middle of the room on his knee and lockpicking the air or getting the option to kick a door open and when you press your action key to perform said action you are to far away and just miss all together. I would like a little more intel before going into a mission. Like if it's going to be night time or foggy or something along those lines. Now that stuff might be there and I haven't noticed it but making sure you have the right gear for the job would be a big help in that department.

As of now I am enjoying my experience with this game and I hope they keep making it better. Can't wait to see if I can talk my buddies into it eventually and see how immersive that feels.

Single player works great. Now the multiplayer sucks. I can freeroam with no issues. The instant I start doing a online story mission or any mission in online that involves multiple players to play it. I get through the cut scene and into the game play and then disconnect. I've port forwarded, I've shut off firewall and antivirus, I've changed my DNS and I've done lots of other crap. I've played through the rockstar launcher and now through steam and it hasn't changed a thing. This game has been out for years and it's the ONLY game in my library that does this. It get a disconnect error of Ox21002001, saying that my internet speed is not consistant. Yet my internet speed is 400+mb/s and my ping is 30 at average. My friends have no issues with gaming online yet for some reason rockstar won't check to see if the issue is on their end for me. Sorry but if this is the only game in my library that can't stay connected to a fast connection and I've done everything but a clean boot of my pc to make sure their game works. Then the problem is on there end. I don't recommend RDR2 Online and I'm kinda getting sick and tired of the way they treat their customers as cash cows.

If anyone has any ideas let me know.

This game has been a blast with friends. Haven't had much in the way of solo play so can't comment there. I have had one weird thing happen. Randomly I will log in and sometimes immediately and other times hours into game play, my game will become over taken with blackness. It will start as a spot and then it will take over the entirety of my view accept for my hud. Not sure what is happening so I just restart and rejoin the game and everything is fine. Until it randomly does it again. No clue what is up with that.

So I'm really enjoying being able to play co-op multiplayer with my friends. Granted it's only a skirmish style mode but it's still fun. WE have had some fatal errors and have had to save and then reload to continue but it's still been fun none the less. The game plays interesting and easy to pick up. The Runes/Blessings and getting to unleash Ragnarok on your enemies is freaking sweet. I've just really enjoyed this game. I hope we get more maps and more large scale maps. I can't wait to see all that the full game will bring. Thank you and please keep updating this game. It's just fun.

Editing post. So since my fps issues. I have figured them out and I needed to play through xbox app for a while. The seemed to fix the issues. The game is fun and feels like Combat Evolved. Which is a great thing. Still not happy that everything is hidden behind a pay wall aka BattlePass. Which in all honesty is a load of horse pucky. I want to want to continue playing this game and I am getting my friends and family into playing it as well. I just don't feel that the extremely limited options for customization for free is worth it and having earned and unlocked things to have them locked behind a pay wall upsets me. The Battlepass/Coin purchase dynamic in all honesty sours me on the game and I feel like i won't be playing long if it continues. I put a thumbs up to recommend this game because it's worth the play but that may change come actual release time if the pay wall stays the way it is.
