The art style is also insane imo, very unique and fun! Footage was great btw, supplemented well with that you were talking about

[@DeathBySadness]

Isn’t it? Loved the style as well. I’m also very glad you think so as well :) thank you

[@riotfist9747]

😂 looks like every Korean game ever

[@sh0nuff526]

A tactical shooter where the bullets go straight?? Incredible.

[@alansaab2222]

hahaha. . so true. hahaha

[@Unitxry]

😂

[@bean-charlieartz3138]

This actually looks good

[@CashySwanson]

Looks like it might be able to be a good contender, I'll be happy to keep up on it

[@nimblemonster]

I think I played a couple matches with you lol, absolutely agree with the video. While I play a lot of valorant this game feels like it allows for more creativity with playstyles which is just such good fun

[@DeathBySadness]

Now wouldn’t that be crazy 😂 lol Definitely will be playing more today and hopefully I see you there haha

[@superman1875]

Was impressed how well it ran but no mouse atm so I tried controller and it was hard to get the feel right especially in ads. I found better ones but it still needs tweaking I think

[@DeathBySadness]

See I’m a controller player and I heard that an Xbox controller works with this but I haven’t tried. Truly I think games like these need to sadly be played with MNK so I have to suffer as well since I know the controller will make it way to sensitive lol

[@superman1875]

@@DeathBySadness that’s what I used and spent a couple full matches of tdm trying to tweak the settings lol. I think you’re right though, game itself seems like it runs well and can be lots of fun

[@TheChrisLouis]

Are the characters unique in any way besides how they look or are they just generic?

[@DeathBySadness]

They all have their own abilities

[@issslink]

Wait, guns that actually work? Where the fuck do i sign up?

[@Legend77700]

Art style is … interesting

[@Prof.Albusdumbledore]

I really hope it comes to ps5

[@MrMister681]

Looks like a weird combination of CS/Valorant + CoD + Friends VS Friends. COULD get the Valorant audience since I don't really wanna play it with their spyware anticheat, but I'm not sure for how long it'll last. I do really like how you get fighting game health bars at the 1v1 at the very least lol.

[@DeathBySadness]

100% that’s a valid combination lol The 1v1 has to be my favorite part

[@mikeschultz5551]

I'd like to see a deeper dive once you've had some time in the game

[@DeathBySadness]

Will do :)

[@Lillukiee]

Good video would have liked to see you get some kills so I could see the time to kill

[@DeathBySadness]

Got more clips coming soon that actually show me getting kills 😂

[@grenadesniper5576]

Ttk is about .2 seconds to 3 seconds, duels don't last long at all

[@ooooswain]

It's like the sprint does absolutely nothing. Walking and sprinting moves forward at the same pace.

[@taintedazazel7238]

Also try friends vs friends

[@i_Like_Goya]

been playing it game looks really good feels more like apex legends and valorand but i think game runs slow not as fast as xdefiant or etc

[@DeathBySadness]

For sure, it’s one of those games that you have to change your play style completely but I’m here for it.

[@i_Like_Goya]

@@DeathBySadness exactly me too can't wait

[@salena8273]

Finding the right controller sensitivity is a pain

[@superman1875]

Soooooo bad lol I was super impressed by everything except that especially since the guns kick and recoil a lot

[@BraidedWALLACE]

Custom aim on scope settings. Took me a min to fine tune it. Still need work from Dev side though..

[@Algrandius777]

Not a big fan of this genre tbh, the design looks solid though, hope it translates well when the full product comes out

[@cradle4life663]

The movement looks so slow though. Other than that looks amazing.

[@callmera0uf560]

Great review as always! i have a question tho, how do you feel about the performance because i doubt my gtx 1050ti can run it.

[@DeathBySadness]

@@callmera0uf560 thank you! As far as the 1050ti being able to run it, I think it might struggle to keep up to be honest. But it would definitely still be possible if you tone down the graphics to low.

[@TheAstriix]

For those who enjoy it I’m happy for you but the restricted basic movement in shooters kills games for me

[@dnotube1361]

it looks good but alot of people are just shitting on valorant because they couldnt get mechanics down

[@itsmejamesss]

its definitely a west taiwan game

[@ScottieTheFox]

they literally just stole the card system from Friends vs Friends, an indie game released just last year

[@DeathBySadness]

I’m gonna have to look into this, second comment about this game haha

[@Mark-ie1go]

The gunplay feels weird to me. It feels like it's having an identity crisis over being realistic or arcadey. And a lot of the characters are very over-sexualized, which I know is always going to be a given but this game does it badly. But, I do feel there's potential with this game. Idk, guess we'll see

[@DeathBySadness]

I can respect your thoughts, I mean for me valorant is weird but this game isn’t, lol weird. I know. As far the over sexualization? Not too sure about that, I mean in games like these you’ll usually see maybe a woman who’s bustier than normal or something like that but the only one that I feel like you can make an argument about is Serket. But I don’t think this game is close to over sexualization like I can say some other games are but I respect that as well. I also do think this game has something going on for them but only time will tell.

[@Mark-ie1go]

@@DeathBySadness Yeah, I understand valorant being strange, but I feel the gunplay in that game is consistently “tactical.” This game feels to me like you took siege’s gunplay and made the ttk way higher. There is always the chance that I need more time with the game. And as for the sexualization that is something I’ve always been more sensitive to, and I was likely just surprised by the sand lady’s clothing. That sort of thing is a general slight trend in modern gaming, so I guess I can’t knock them too much for it. But I am cautiously optimistic about the game, but idk how I feel about it. The gameplay just feels off to me - but again, I’ve only had a few hours with the game

[@DeathBySadness]

@@Mark-ie1go I see what you mean tbh, and yeah that trend is becoming popular lol but I respect you for that. Give it more time and come back and tell me your future thoughts please!

[@Mark-ie1go]

@@DeathBySadness Will do! Nice video btw!

[@CoolJoshido212]

oversexualised how? cause of midriff?

[@THawkMedia]

Art style is great but WHY THE HELL IS THIS A SEARCH AND DESTROY GAME.

[@TrizollinTehWorld]

They have tdm

[@g3ng4rb0i3]

"Plays alot like valorant" ya u lost me on that one

[@DeathBySadness]

@@g3ng4rb0i3 hey lol I’m not a valorant fan as well, trust me. But when I say this game captivated my attention unlike Valorant could, I mean it haha.

[@henryiam4677]

didnt really break it down....

[@issslink]

It's a first impression of an alpha, what you want him to break down his own thoughts?
