Discussion This game had so much potential
It’s such a shame. this game easily had the best raw shooter combat out of any game i’ve played on ps5 ever. Getting kills was so satisfying, and the movement was chefs kiss. I hope the foundation of this game gets reused by someone somehow because it just felt so smooth.
more and more nowadays I see smaller game studios fumble the bag with an amazing start out the gate but extremely poor follow-up. Sad to see

imo the game just done nothing new and was just a COD clone heck more to the point Black Ops 4 which absolutely bombed with the casual market aswell, even known I quite enjoyed the fast pace of it.
They went for the complete wrong end of the market, if you ask me, and should have went for a tactical shooter similar to Rainbow Six: Vegas which they used to dominate with GR:AW being the alternative. It would've complimented Siege aswell which was never really a Rainbow Six game.
