Still processing here over 3 hours worth of Gameplay I streamed tonight, flew by they is so much to learn and do its madness. best of all the community seem decent so far in my early amount of game time.

A mate was telling me about this. Sounds like it could be fun.
If it was free I'd probably try it, but not paying £13.50 for it.

£13.50 is a fair price and they is well enough game time here to make that very worth it..
Honestly £13.50 quid its hardly breaking the bank! Ok even if you didnt like it you get two hours steam game time for refund anyways.

How many players per server?

120 is the max I seen so far

seems so slow

ive done 2 hours... ill sleep on it, then decide if i want it or not

I only just started learning about creating all the weapons and vehicles.

Tonight is the first time I played with a group of friends and I after say the game has become even more enjoyable.
Teaming up and going out doing weapons runs for the front line.
Then going on a epic shoot out to take over a enemy FOB just pure fun.

Try and team up guys

Am loving it even more I play, I learned a lot last night, ranking system, Clans, Building, How best to destroy things.

The in game Voice chat is also Proximity so you can hear the enemy talking
Me and my mate decided we go beyond enemy line and we got quite far, found a base and the gate was locked! Started talking in game "saying why isn't this gate opening" Lool They end up opening the Gate and we ran in It was so bloody cool moment One of them had to be there moments.

Actually enjoying it atm... probably as i was part of a huge front that was back and forth non stop. Did grunt work for a while, then played medic as we had a last stand at Hopes Causeway iirc, somehow fending off a tank and waves of men. I can see this being a game where if you are with a group of friends/regulars, that it would be amazing to play and a huge timesink.

Yeah it defo does depend on the group of people and friends to make the game more enjoyable.
