At the current state I can't recommend the game.
- The loadout manager for the game is awful, you have to manually add magazines and grenades at the weapon mods station,
- you have to pick a gun from a gun rack
- The gun state persists from the lobby to the mission, so if you have an empty chamber for some reason you find yourself with an empty chamber in the mission with the enemy instantly shooting at you in worst case
- while realism is fun and cool having to manually hit the bolt release with a weird key press combination is just... "eh"
- Having the colour options for your vests and trousers etc as separate entries in the menu just bloats it to ad nauseam and makes it obnoxious to find something.
- Character breaking his wrist when holding the weapon in a low or high ready
- escape is not the "back button" in all menus but sometimes Esc, sometimes F, sometimes none of the above... UI hell
- Escape opens the Lobby menu but doesn't pause the game in single player
- Enemies seem to quickly spot one no matter if day or night or through bushes (I do have a screenshot for a case like this)
- I feel like you overall don't get much feedback on what's going on
- Realisms seems to be made through "leaving away information or HUD" which kinda misses, that in "real life" you get feedback from your gun or can quickly check settings in a tacticle way which you don't get here. For example I press G to pull out a grenade and I have no clue if I actually have a grenade in my hands now without looking all the way down or when I am ready.
- I wish I could put "optics switching" on the mousewheel like in Ground Branch but no, I can't, I have to use capslock or another key.
The gun customisation is pretty nice with lots of options but I feel like the UI is letting it down
Gunplay does feel good
The review seems overly negative but I really hope the dev keeps going and sees this as feedback to continue improving it
