What players say
85% of 9,596 reviews are positive · 86% of 325 in the last 30 days
Players most often praise firearm handling, granular movement controls, and detailed weapon customization. Common complaints focus on erratic AI that rushes, ignores players, or shoots through cover, as well as sparse maps and limited content. Solo-focused players also say the large maps and lack of friendly AI squadmates make missions overly difficult.
