This might be a rental for me because it looks too similar in style to The Division. I liked the plot but I’m not into playing the same thing over and over again trying to farm better weapons/shields/etc. I also thought The Division’s PVP was really bad and see the same happening here. Coop would probably be a lot of fun though.
I saw Neebs Gaming’s recent video of this game and it put me off completely. To me the game looks terrible. I’m sure the open beta will confirm my suspicion.
It’s not like the division at all; you pop someone in the head they drop. No loot simulator here just standard progression (e.g. Complete this mission unlocks this gun which you can pickup prior and use). It’s all on you. Think of it as a Choose your adventure in an open world. Main Story is Drug Cartel controls the country and military; you are spec ops that work with the rebels (or not directly; your choice e.g. Request arty support etc but you do support them) to destroy them from within, by brute force or let them fight between themselves and kill each other off.
I’ve got it pre-loaded, and am looking forward to giving it a shot. I’m kinda half and half as to what I think so far, but I haven’t played it yet, so I don’t really have a solid opinion yet.
