SCP: 5K

Played a lot a pirated copy, bought the omni edition to thank the devs

Played this game for a little bit! Gotten this game a long while ago before many of the major changes and I can say there are some notes to be made! Pros: > Gameplay is relatively smooth and when on DirectX 11, it is very stable and relatively wonderful. > While some sections are quite short, Chapter 2 & 3 for the Area-12 Campaign have been good experiences, albeit relatively short and not as fun when repeating it. > NSIS-4 Mission is amazing, the story telling and visuals are something I am very excited for in future developments of the game! > Weapon selection and realism is solid and really good choices! Cons: > Chapter 1 is almost entirely good, however, when arriving to the Parking Garage with the Gas Pump section, I find this section rather frustrating and unfun when solo'ing. While it is much easier with teammates, the solo experience up to this point is difficult due to lack of any real powerful weapons to use against the Hound-Type enemies. These enemies are bullet sponges and can take an entire mag to the head to bring just one down. While also dealing 1/3 of your HP in dmg. This isn't entirely problematic outside of the Gas Pump Level, but when arriving to this level, it becomes increasingly difficult due to the constant spawning of these hounds in such large quantities and lack of any strong weapon to really beat them (outside the VSS & Mossbergs found in the level & armoury). This level almost FORCES the player to use the Mossberg shotgun to deal any meaningful damage to the hounds w/o mag dumping. The best way to fix or address this in a gameplay perspective is either reducing the number of hounds that spawn and increase their spawn time to give players on solo a more respectful chance to actually beat the level, or provide stronger weapons in the armoury aside from pistols and the Mossbergs. > There ARE points in the game where the in-game physics do 'break', causing the player to phase into the floor or enemies spawn into the floor and shoot at the player. (This has occurred twice for me only for the NSIS-4 Level). I figure these are basic bugs and thus not particularly a majour gripe with me for the overall game. Overall: The game is solid and very fun to play with friends or solo on your first proper experiences with the game! The gun selection is varied and diverse and the environments look wonderful, and some mechanics are actually quite fun to use. Though with some balancing issues and gameplay problems in Chapter 1 Parking Garage, the game is still going very well, even in early access. So would I recommend this game? I absolutely would, it is a fun experience though not exactly repeatable. I hope for the best and hope I can do more to help provide more clear details to help improve the game!
