Fun with friends

Most realistic physics and movement I've seen in a VR game to date. Extremely fun, with endless (and often hilarious) ways to defeat your enemies. A must-have for VR owners :)

Best VR game on the market.

Before I start: I know this game is very, very new, and that I'm sure that there will be many updates in the future that may fix the problems I am currently having with this game. However, this review will be less for people wanting to purchase it, and more for the developer/s that created it.

To start this review off, I'd like to say that the idea for this game is absolutely fascinating. I love the concept of skydiving into a crazy warzone with a group of friends, searching for resources, and fighting against a horde of other people to try to be the top survivors in the Battleground. The music is nice, the setting (itself) is great, and the various different cosmetic items are refreshing.

However, when it comes to execution and performance, this game is practically unplayable in its current state. Constant FPS drops (usually happens right when I see another player), various glitches (such as running yourself over), and a world that is so unbelievably large that it slows down the game to render objects that are just a couple feet in front of your character. No matter how low I put the display settings in the menu, the FPS and rendering problems still remain. I cannot tell you how frustrating it is to see that the game isn't any more playable on "Very low" settings than it is in "Ultra" settings. I have a very compatable computer, and it is almost equal to that of the reccomended requirements. No matter how good your PC is, IT WILL STILL HAVE TROUBLE RUNNING THIS GAME. This game often has crashed my computer, causing me to restart it (everytime it crashes). This game is very, very difficult to play when your FPS drops to about 1 everytime you encounter another person on the battleground. It isn't enjoyable to know that it is basically impossible to be the last man standing.

I would rant more, but this review is getting repetitive. My advice to anyone thinking about buying this game:

Do NOT buy it...

...yet.

Give it some time first, there is a LOT to be updated and done, and I hope that the developer/s find a way to fix every single last one of these problems. Until then, I'll be keeping this review as a "Do not buy". I think I would really enjoy this game (if it would run smoothly enough for me to actually play it)!

This game is awesome. I feel like it is highly under rated, but it is extremely fun and provides hours upon hours of entertianment. If you're scared at first, just remember: you'll get stronger, better, faster. Just keep playing untik you can kill a petty volitile with one hit. Good night, good luck!

This is a game that has lasted a long while. I've played it for over eight years, and have found it entertaining for the majority of that time. It's got everything you need for a F2P - Comp, fun characters, casual mode, cosmetics, UNUSUAL cosmetics, golden weapons, a market to sell them on... and the list continues. However, it seems that Valve can tend to forget about the greatness of this game and the community that backs it. Lately, their recent updates to the game have been downright poor and dissapointing. Instead of making new, exciting content that a player looks forward to all year, they recycle old Scream Fortress maps (which is fine), but they don't add anything new that makes me want to rush home, hop on to TF2 immediately with all of my friends, and have a blast like we used to have some 2-3 years ago. I still have hope for this game, we just need to see that hope and determination fuel the ingenuity of the TF2 Valve team to get this game back up on its feet and running again. Overall, this game is one of my favorites of all time, and has given me many, many fond memories of which I wish I could relive all over again. If you're new to the game, get ready for several years of fun with friends. Have fun!
