First of all to truly understand the advancement/progress of this series comparing to A2/A3 you should of at least have 500 hours in one of the ARMA series games, in MY OPINION

This Reforger is absolutely GREAT! I think that this is what we all ARMA fanboys been dreaming, first of all the smoothness is just great, comparing it to A3/A2 I can finally say that this feels like a 2020+ game, the new mechanics I find interesting but surely need more work especially in the inventory part of the game.

I understand that this is a WIP for the game and the price might not be justified for most BUT, what he have now already exceeds some of ARMA fanboys expectations of the ARMA series and if ARMA 4 is truly based on the REFORGER that we're all going to have a good time when it finally comes out.

Pro:

+ Graphics just beautiful (once again directly comparing it to A2/A3) and truly a step up with the new engine.
+ Animations it just feels smooth and how it should be especially for the vehicle part, sure a few tweaks here and there maybe more recoil for the weapons but these things are just a few patches away.
+ AI behaviour a giant leap forward of what A2/A3 has offered and now you feel you have a fighting chance in solo/SP play against AI's and not getting sniped 2 km's away
+ The new inventory/gear system in which you can access each pouch and move pouches around for your load bearing system is really a step forward yet the inventory seems a bit weird to access around
+ many more features that you can discover while playing.
+ PERFORMANCE wise this pre alpha/early access whatever you want to call it gave me more FPS than the other ARMA series in certain environments

Cons:

- Inventory is kinda weird and needs some more worked put in
- Currently some problems with the multiplayer part on the quality of playing part as well as it is very confusing on how you create a private server(we used to have a button in the past for that)
- I've received maybe 1 or 2 crashed during my playtime but still this was expected
- Lack of content and here i'm only talking on the vehicles and air assets I know that we will get more as the game advances.... but still maybe a few more vehicles could of been already done for this stage of the game in my opinion.

In the current state of the game and taking into considerations that the game is in a Alpha/early access/showcase whatever I would definitely recommend this game and I would score it at 8.5/10 for this stage of the game.

Updates: updates are pretty slow, unfortunately the community left reforger, kinda unpopulated right now
