Gray Zone

I love RTS games, and this is quite a fun one to play! It's one of these games I couldn't stop playing. I was enjoying myself through the first few missions, when all of the sudden, one of the main characters got stuck on a wall. I had to continue the mission without him, but at the end of the mission, I found out he needed to talk to someone to complete the mission. Oh well, I can't continue - unless I restart the entire level back from scratch. I tried reloading from a saved game, but now the character has disappeared from the map. He still shows in the HUD, but when you move to his supposed location, he's not in the map, and if I select him, the game says nothing is selected. Either way I cannot finish the mission and continue the game. There are also the path finding issues, where we can assign units to shortcuts, but part of the group stays behind and won't move. You have to undo the group and redo it, as many times as it takes for the group to move all units again, which is very frustrating. Oh, and there are pickups you cannot pick. Sometimes you can grab them, sometimes you can't. Too bad if they are part of the mission, for then you are screwed. I figured that if you clic…

Understand I don't much like these sort of games and yet this game is kinda amazing...Don't really understand negative reviews or relative lack of interest. The price point is very reasonable and its on sale now - there are even cheaper steam keys out there if you look! While I didnt have any major bugs myself devs have also begun some bug fixing and Q&L that has definitely bettered this game. The story (writing) and voice acting is way better than it has any right being at this price point the gameplay is actually solid and can be addictive - (see my playtime) meant to try it for an hour or so and couldn't put it down when I started playing. Only on fourth mission/map now (I played slow so I didn't lose any units on hard) but would recommend for those who have an interest in rts/rpg tactical shooters with stealth mechanics.(I actually tend to hate stealth but can tolerate it here due to commendable design). Btw units at least early have their own portrait and personality not baldurs gate level but its a nice immersive touch that its not all just soldier one or soldier two. The game play is surprisingly deep and tactical and very punchy, the sound...what the hell?? The ind…

Well, after last updates game seems playable soo.

[h2]Gray Zone[/h2] [h1]Me When RTS Games 😅[/h1] Before even saying anything related to the game, I just want to admit something. So, I hate playing RTS Games. I’ve probably tried like only 1 or 2 titles from this genre till now. This means that I obviously have no knowledge on how such games function. But yes, I will be trying my best to review this game with whatever I know about and I promise not to be biased since I technically hate games from this genre. At least I am honest about this. Gray Zone has been in early access ever since April 2020. They finally released the “Final Version” of this game in December 2022, more than 2 years later. They needed this long since the game was apparently a bug haven before. I am glad they were able to resolve all these issues while adding more content! Let’s just jump right into the review. [h1]About This Game [/h1] [h2]Storyline [/h2] I was taken aback by how good this game’s plot actually is. I didn’t think RTS games come with a good storyline since they would mostly be gameplay-centered. As of now, they released only one chapter. According to the game’s store page’s description, they have planned to release a total of 4 chapters. I…

There's a lot of promise here but maybe RTS just isn't for me. I love the Mimimi formula for stealth strategy games but this just feels like it has no direction and thus offers nothing. The entire tactical formula seems to 1) try to stealth which never works, 2) take cover in a shootout, and 3) spam heal packs. Until you run into a situation that that doesn't work, which I have. I wish I understood the game better because I feel like I'd enjoy it if had just a slightly different design.
