## What is Planet Protect Squad PvP & PvE?

This is a beginning of the invasion.
We don't know where they came from - from the deeps of the space, or from another dimension. All we know - they did not come with peace.
Huge extraterrestrial spaceships just appeared on the Earth's orbit. First they destroyed all the major military bases, then they started to search something in various corners of the planet.
They used battle machines and strange mutant creatures to attack us. Then it became worse - they started to turn our people into their weapon.
Earth Protect Squad is our last hope. Small military organisation was created to face the alien threat. We have everything to fight - highly-trained soldiers, lot of modern weapons, and the latest technologies, like battle bots and force fields in our arsenal.
We have armory lab to modify our weapons and get tactical advantage - you can easilly change your scope, or barrel attachment, or even ammo type before the mission.
We need to find out what they are looking for. We need to learn how to fight them and defend our home.

### 4/5 — Good game

*2026-02-08, version 1.21*

I love the game, I just wish it had different base boss variations and more variety of enemies.

### 3/5 — Eliminen a los Hackers:(

*2025-12-01, version 1.21*

Por favor eliminen a esos molestos hackers si es que se puede hacer algo 😫 son molestos y no dejan jugar en paz

### 4/5 — Can you do this

*2025-09-21, version 1.20*

Can you make the character not cost real money

### 1/5 — Update: the campaign works now, fixed, but still problems…

*2025-08-13, version 1.20*

Broken Mp7 does no damage, mag dump does not kill anything. Does 10 damage on a monster or player with like 5000 health, very stupid. 2. Bullets sponges everywhere, i had to spam and hit a human bot target for 1000 heath: 5 grenades and after they had one heath, I have to mag dump 30 rounds into its face before the bot dies, meanwhile they can two shot kill anyone. The freking programer skipped good ai tactics and replaced it with stupid bullet sponges. 3. The respawn timer on pvp is 0 seconds, allowing teammates to help other team win, by rushing the other team without respawn pause. Raging and frag feeding. Add respawn timer to 6 seconds!

### 1/5 — Update Broke game: Single campaign will not start

*2025-07-28*

Lame game!
1.Now the single campaign is broken does not start when press “start”.

2. Broken Mp7 does no damage, mag dump does not kill anything. Does 10 damage on a monster or player with like 5000 health, very stupid.

3. Bullets sponges everywhere, i had to spam and hit a human bot target for 1000 heath: 5 grenades and after they had one heath, I have to mag dump 30 rounds into its face before the bot dies, meanwhile they can two shot kill anyone.

### 5/5 — 金策チベット周回ゲー

*2025-05-29, version 1.18*

これ以上でも以下でもない、でも面白いよ

### 5/5 — Love the game!!

*2025-05-03, version 1.18*

Update!! Add new guns and characters we need more skins and weapons developers… I spend real money with you guys !!! I love you!!

### 1/5 — StillBroken:Mp7 DPS magdump no damage

*2025-04-28, version 1.18*

Id rather pay money for a quality game, then to be stuck with limited selection free Apple’s communist bad quality games. I want a game like this but without the bad balancing ruining a good game. 
😠 It has been YEARS and each update makes this game worse. Invasion spawns endless monsters, and there is only about 120 ammo, dropped prize ammo despawns in 9 seconds, while monsters keep spawning. By the time you kill the babysitting monster- the ammo is gone. I had to kill 500+ before beating a round.
 
😣👉 Mp7 can’t kill even a 20hp bot on full accuracy. If this developer thinks human head should survive 22 rounds of SMG, than he should try shooting himself in the head… go ahead developer, try it yourself. 
 
[]😖 Bad balance Why does a gold locked 30cal or 50bmg Hmg or Lmg take 120 rounds to the head, kill a person- While my free grenade or rocket can kill 4 people in one hit?! 

[]😤 Now the new update forces view bob hit shakes to disorient the user eyes. Wow idiotic! And the sniper HUD features are gone. The single campaign has bugged menu now. 
 
[]😡 Bots entering to fill ragequiters on pvp, are so aggressive they sabotage their own team by mindlessly running into the enemy, to give enemy frags. So you could be top player against real players, and have no deaths and 20 kills, but still LOSE! Because the bots don’t care but ruin the match with idiotic Leonid tactics.

 []🤬 Recap: Id rather pay money for a quality game, then to be stuck with limited selection free Apple’s communist bad quality games. I want a game like this but without the bad balancing ruining a good game.

### 1/5 — perdi mi progreso

*2025-04-12, version 1.18*

llevaba dias jugando y hoy ingreso al juego y no tenia nada. literalmente inicie el juego de nuevo

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2025-03-24, version 1.18*

I've been playing this game for three years, and only now I've encountered bugs and glitches.

First thing was that it partially wiped out my progress, I had to grind once again for all my characters, skins, drones, and grenades; except for the ones I paid.

Then the abilities is completely bugged. The button displaying the ability is gone in game.

The minimap was also glitched, with the texture of the map sticking out of the perimeter of the circle.

There are more bugs, such as map related glitches, as well as the world map display- showing the texture as a huge grey rectangle.

Then there were also glitches with the servers, where I could not join other players.

Thank you for understanding and taking a time to read my review. I look forward to a bug fix. Thank you once again.
