    Crytek’s managed to craft a palpably tense and terrifying shooter that’s equal parts survival and competition, but it still needs to solve the problems of players exploiting the system by camping on escape routes, an unreliable AI, and other, basic performance issues. [Early Access Score = 75]

    I’m not in for the long-haul, but I’m pleased to have a game where escape isn’t just a booby prize. And one with yet another terrifying spider.

I've been playing FPS games for a quarter of a century, and the gunplay is just crap. This is aggravated by the fact that there's no practice mode, permadeath is enforced, and you will be paired against max-level players regardless of your skill.

    Oh, and want to solo? You'll be put in a match against teams.

This game is a massive joke. There is no way this should be for sale. It's simply not worth any money. If you are able to survive through the crashes and bugs and disconnects and server outages, you feel lucky - the game completion rate is about 50%. The game has been out for over a month to paying Steam users and Crytek has not released one single patch that improves stability. They instead opted to take everyones money and not address the issues. Sad. it had potential. Refunded and will never play again. Avoid at all costs.… Full Review »
