The experience feels similar to combining TF2 and Counter Strike but with a unique twist. It lacks precise aiming and quick kills, offering a more traditional shooting vibe reminiscent of older titles. If you enjoy Wolfenstein Enemy Territory or Unreal Tournament, this one might suit you. The game features a merc system acting like classes, each with distinct skills—like Sawbonez providing healing med packs and reviving allies, or Nader deploying a grenade launcher for damage. A loadout card system shapes your character's perks and equipment choices.
Gameplay runs smoothly on compatible hardware: a 4690k processor and 750 Ti with maxed settings gives you 60-80 frames. It works best on AMD systems with a 2 GB VRAM from Kepler or higher, which most modern CPUs handle. For optimal performance, use a 800 dpi monitor, aim for 7 inches or more per frame, and disable mouse acceleration.
Tips include using the M4 for consistent fire, focusing shots only when enemies are close enough to tackle, and adjusting settings accordingly. Save your credits wisely—purchase mercs after testing them in the free rotation. The top picks I’d suggest are Proxy, Nader, and Sawbonez.
As for a free-to-play feel, most core mechanics let you earn everything without spending money. Only mercs cost real currency, but you’ll usually find several free options available at once. For a taste of how it plays in competitive matches, check out a live stream or community guide.
Isn't promoting against the CoC? Also, the game doesn't seem great—tried it.
He is examining a game and recommending it to the audience since he really enjoyed it. If he were promoting his own version by urging people to try it immediately, that would be marketing. But this isn’t the case here.
I already had access before the closed beta. From the start, there’s a concern that few people will play this game. I believe this is because the merc system feels quite odd. You pick a merc, then decide on its loadout? Plus, you can’t really tweak your own loadouts or mercs.
