Can't recommend this game due to either Behavior Interactive forcing the devs to quit working on the game, or the devs themselves just giving up on working on the game. No more updates? This game was a gem, but being a technically dead product just makes it impossible to recommend. What is currently there is great, don't get me wrong, the game is fantastic, but my point stands.

Great social deduction game, super deep and very high skill ceiling. Learning curve is fairly extreme. If anybody is having issues with queue times or not being able to find games, try All-Any. This is likely the most popular game-mode due to the unpredictability of the game.

Idk why but I can't find this hunter in my hunter list now. I even typed her name in the search to recruit and she's just not here. Not sure what's going on there.

I simply can't recommend this DLC. The base game was great before this release, went to hell, has now been patched to an at least playable state, but still many bugs and issues are present. Luckily, these are mostly tied to just the DLC now instead of the base game itself too. I wouldn't recommend this DLC to veterans or new players alike as it simply, in my opinion, makes the experience worse or at best doesn't add enough content to warrant the price tag.

The map design is great, the music is great, Seeker is a cool character with some interesting mechanics, but the items and the enemy types and the bugs are just abysmal.

This game is fundamentally designed, from the foundation all the way up, to milk the player-base. I love Bethesda games, but whatever THIS is, is NOT a Bethesda game. This is a greedy corporate cash grab intentionally designed to be a miserable experience UNLESS you pay for the conveniences that are locked behind a paywall.

It plays exactly like Fallout 4, but it's just generally more subpar in most categories. Even on a private server the game just feels kinda meh because you know everything is designed to be annoying without paying for it... not to mention you have to pay $10 a month for a private server. The game plays like a singleplayer game but with random multiplayer interactions that can range from pvp engagements or high level players giving you a bunch of random stuff.

The game itself is quite beautiful and it is fun, when you aren't dealing with inventory issues (due to not paying), or noticing all the cash grabby related content being shoved in your face. If you can avoid that (which is impossible) then sure, the game is fun and enjoyable. But again, it's just fallout 4 but with microtransactions and what-not. I love fallout 4, I still play it to this day. I was hoping '76 would be as enjoyable but it's just not.
It's similar to RDR2o.. you can just feel that the game plays differently and it's designed in such a way that makes it feel kind of miserable to play. With RDR2o, again, the game is fun, but the gameplay loop is ruined by greed and microtransactions.

Edit 10/16/2024: The UI is finally actually kind of decent now. Crytek is listening, believe it or not! Thank god lol

Sometime around september idk, when Mammon's Gulch came out: The "modernized" UI is genuinely so horrible. Who genuinely at Crytek was thinking, "Man, let's make our players have to navigate ten windows just to get their loadout instead of 2 windows, that sounds fun.. also make it go back to the lobby every time they pick an item so they have to keep navigating different windows."

Do you guys not play your own game? At least play test it or something??

Yes.

Very good RTS. Reminds me of old-school RTS similar to Age of Mythology. If you enjoyed AoM, you'll enjoy this. It's pretty much the same game, just graphically updated to modern standards, added stone as a resource for defenses, and overall more user-friendly when it comes to user-interface, information given during matches, game-modes, etc.

Also, obviously, it's based on real empires throughout history, not mythological gods and the like.

One of the best RTS games of all time. Period.

Another gem of a game with a ton of potential. Lost to time, it seems. Unfortunate. The game is far too crashy, buggy, and un-optimized now adays. Though, it kind of was back in the days when this game was flourishing.. at least it was being updated and issues were being addressed.

TL;DR: Game is abandoned and slowly becoming more unstable and unplayable as time progresses.
