### 1/5 — Issue

*2022-08-28, version 1.1.3*

Does not load through the loading screen when you open the game. I’ve tried everything. Deleting and downloading again. Just waiting to see if it loads. And it does nothing. Waited two hours to see if it would load, and it never did. I use an iPhone 11 so I don’t see why there would be any issues with it. Please fix it. Or tell me what I’m doing wrong. Thanks.

Please make it open world

### 5/5 — Disregard the other persons review

*2018-04-07, version 1.1.3*

The person that left a lengthy review wants a game that won’t work on a mobile platform simply due to capacity restrictions. The pc version is 50gb and change. Unless you have the 128gb or 256gb version of a iOS device it won’t happen. Not to mention how much would be needed to run that. Yes it’s a iOS version. But that’s it. They’re not going to do a 50 dollar mobile game of it. Because cryengine does not run on mobile. Simple as that. For graphics in this game they’re in par with the first and a little bit of the second game in the series. There are physics bugs. One I’ve seen is if you shoot someone and it’s the last one and it’s near a previous corpse you’ll see him skyrocket into the air and come back down. Gameplay is not dependent on buying things if you don’t want to spend money. After the first act money picks up quite quickly. I was able to get the xm8 aw50 and the last pistol whose name escapes me at this time. All by act 3. You also don’t have to do micro transactions if you don’t want to. Just have to wait a certain amount of time and if you need a slomo or spot all targets you can try getting it done without it or wait until you get it. This took me maybe a month and a half without spending money to complete mostly due to first week release date issues there were. If you want something different that actually has a good control scheme this one does work. What Whatshisnuts above wants a full fledged game like the third game in the series but that’s not going to happen for obvious reasons. If you want something that’s mindless this would work. Better then some of the other free ones that are out there.

### 5/5 — Dear creators plz read this ideas for game and the PROBLEMS FOR THE GAME THAT NEED TO BE FIXED

*2017-12-17, version 1.1.3*

Ideas needed for the game

-add multiplayer

On the ninth sniper mission for Tibet when says prevent the execution by killing the gunners what happened is this I kill the two gunners with a headshot but on the third I am at him with the red circle when you aim and shoot him with a headshot but he doesn't die so plz fix this for me

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2017-09-30, version 1.1.3*

Having been having a blast aiming down sights on this game. Love the different stages and tackling them as assault or as a sniper. Lots of people don’t get the title but it’s the way you take on the mission. Either as a sniper a ghost or a warrior. Great job ci keep up the good work.

### 4/5 — Fix
