If you enjoy the likes of RO2/RS, or are otherwise interested in a relatively authentic Vietnam MP tactical shooter, sure. Get it on discount.

The developers have apparently moved on, with a final patch coming sometime in the future, apparently having been delayed due to covid. The game still has some outstanding issues and server owners in particular seem quite disgruntled, which is bad news for the playerbase's sustainability.

The standard of teamwork amongst the community usually amounts to the commander endlessly telling his team to get into cap in an increasingly frustrated and/or bored tone. There are few who actively coordinate within their squads and those around them. If you're a machinegunner and ask for ammo, if someone's close they'll usually sort you out. SLs will put up arty marks and commanders generally will use their call-ins, so not much different from RO2 onwards.

The biggest issue for me however is technical. For whatever reason, 3rd-person gunshots that are less than 50m away seem a lot quieter, instead of louder than those at distance as you might imagine they'd be. Not sure if it's just some bad juju on my end or if it's an intended function of the game, but it ♥♥♥♥♥ me hard.
I've had the same issue with two different motherboards and two different pairs of headphones. It was an issue when I first got the game, and still is now.
