Early Access Review
What can I say about The Culling?

As It's my first BR type game I can safely say I've had more good times in this game than bad ones. I've throughly enjoyed really tense melee duels only to have my kill stolen by someone hiding in a bush with a bow and then have him come and teach me a lesson in pain.
The game actually requires you to think. Is looting that building someone's already in a good idea? Likelhood is they're already better geared...
Do I join in on that fight going on over the river there or do I wait and take advantage of the one who survives??
Do I call in my airdrop now with so many still alive and risk being exposed???

PROS:
Simple combat that ranges from close combat, bow use, gunplay and even trapping people and explosive use
Beautiful to look at
Nice map - Hopefully they add more, perhaps an urban based one?
Nice array of weapons
Great potential!

CONS:
LAG! For the love of god I've been murdered so many times by someone who seems to be able to teleport around me and slap me around.
Combat! It needs work
Balancing is an issue, but It's in Alpha so hopefully they'll work out the kinks
Useless perks - Plenty!

For those looking for a quick fix, this might be your game. It's nerve wracking, exciting and frustrating. Short matches ensure you're always close to a bit of action and some solid choices will make sure you survive.

Good luck! You're gonna need it.
