what's the point?
i started with a friend recently and we got a base going and we played for 3 days amassing supplies to try to learn ONE blueprint (still like 12 blueprints from learning how to make a revolver or anything useful) and everybody on the server has helicopters and AKs and bombs. i played til 2AM last night and nearly learned my first blueprint and then I wake up this morning to two sheet metal doors with code locks just gone (blown up I guess?) and new locks and i'm locked out of my house. we built 4 bases over the last 3 days and i checked all 4 last night. this morning ALL 4 ARE GONE AND DESTROYED. in 10 hours while i slept. lost everything for 3 days of playing (like 12 hours) and i'm back to square one with literally no recourse. i still know ZERO blueprints and i'm shit all in the world. if this game expects me to grind out another 12 hours to maybe learn how to make a hammer i'll never use you've got to be fucking kidding me. been trying to play this game for 2 weeks and the server is gonna wipe soon and everybody has guns and i still can't understand how to make even a bean grenade or a hammer out of scrap. this is absolutely ridiculous.
is this a game or a career?
does this game just hate it's players? how do you catch up to people who have AKs and shit when I can't even build a hammer? what the fuck? this has got to be the worst game i've ever played by an insane margin. apparently sleeping in real life means you lose everything. how is this fun? i just want even a tiny chance at success but i'm playing against people who have teams of 10 people building massive castles with bombs and guns and fucking AIR SUPPORT while i'm naked with a rock barely able to build a couple shacks for bases. holy shit it's infuriating the lack of respect this game has for the time i've invested. like, the developers shit on me for wanting to play their game. feels like they want me to fuck all the way off and never play this game so i guess i'll take the hint.
this is a game made by people who live on their computers for people who shit in their own pants so they can game longer.
fuck allllll the way off with this shit. deleting this garbage.
it's a Bad Game from a game mechanics standpoint but it's also very badly programmed from what i can tell. like i said in another comment it's the worst running game on my ps4 by a large margin, it crashes a lot and is super laggy and drops frames constantly (hilarious from a game that expects you to literally sleep with the game on so you can react at a moment's notice). like, i have literally nothing good to say about it that can't be said about another, better game. the more i've thought about it over the past 2 days the more i've realized it's a game that brings out the worst in people and rewards you for going through that hellish experience with exactly nothing. i know it might seem hyperbolic but i'm still on my 'this game is abusive to it's customer base' train on this one because it feels like you're paying to be punched in the face repeatedly. i'm not here to kink shame but that's not my vibe.
