I've played this game a TON since the end of 2025, at first figuring it was just an off-shoot of DarkRP with dystopian undertones but something felt fishy from the get-go. Don't get me wrong, I actually... fell in love with it? I took everything in stride that happened in-game, from crap tier players to sadists trying to ruin your fun, you keep going, but it turns out all the community complaints about the game having biased mods and devs that simply do not care about the player, and there being a small clique of individuals ''shadow governing'' without even being devs are starting to be apparent due to how they're censoring every bit of critique. Game changes made are far in and between and often result in breaking the game and making the experience more and more miserable. I understand some suffering but it feels like a bad meme at this point. There is a very serious underlying ''issue'' that I will mention now in an edit because one of the developers (Aaron) is trying to besmirch me - apparently a member of their dev team was caught soliciting minors (apparently a community manager - some say Aaron himself, check the reviews) or in the very least justifying or celebrating thi…2 found this helpful
The devs hate the fans. DO NOT BUY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE1 found this helpful
DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY UNTIL THEY FIX THIS ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ GAME. Developers will do anything but actually fix/improve existing problems and will add new half-baked mechanics and content instead. The game has been out for a year and they can't even manage to do metalworks right, every patch that "fixes" stealing just doesn't. This game is actual misery (and not in the appealing way, or the map) Metalworks rework? Just sit in the furnace and take it! Or limitbait! Better yet, you can stand on people's heads to force them to crouch! or, get this, quenching metal causes it to just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ be void to the stealing system, meaning anyone can just snatch it. And that's not to mention the cyte baiting. Wanna mine on Nightmare? Nope! someone's guarding the door! Wanna make metal bars? Nope! someone's sitting in the furnace, or there's a cop hugging you waiting to shoot the ♥♥♥♥ out of you when you hit them on accident. The only consistent way to get cytes hasn't worked since launch and it makes this game a pain in the ass to play. The mechanics that allow you punish stealing players doesn't even work either! Someone snatch your bars? Well, you can kill them without losing cytes, but yo…
Absolutely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with 0 admin support on public servers... 100% cannot recommend this game less.
very interesting game fun with friends but servers are mostly empty sad sad the big guy is scary
The latest update brought it back to a nice fun playable state, i heavily recommend it to anyone who wants that nice half life 2 type dystopian experience.
