### 3/5 — Falta de equilíbrio

*2026-08-28*

Te colocam pra jogar contra oponentes com armas muito mais fortes. Fica sem graça.

### 2/5 — Mr

*2026-08-18, version 2.16.10*

The miss matching is unreal, you’ll be level 2/3 and taking on guys much more powerful than you.
It’s extremely expensive, basically a cash racket, no little kids can afford to play this game.

### 3/5 — Pay 2 Win Frustration

*2026-07-27*

Dieses spiel hat potenzial, es läuft flüssig und alles fühlt sich gut und Intuitiv an. Leider verblasst das sofort wenn man gegen richtige Spieler spielt. Es hat viel Pay 2 Win. Ich hab nicht so viel gespielt weil ich irgendwann wirklich Frustriert war, aber ich hab mich immer umderpowerd gefühlt, egal was ich gemacht hab nichts hat sich gut angefüllt, ich hab nichts im Kampf beitragen können weil ich gefühlt nur mit Wasserpistolen auf Gegner geschossen hat. Es hat gute Konzepte aber man ist immer frustriert, weil selbst Waffen die einen Stern besser sind als deine dich in einem 1 gegen 1 immer töten. Man steht nur als Nebenfigur da und wird erschossen während man in dem deathscreen immer warten muss nur um direkt getötet wird. Man kann nur Pay too win Player überfahren das ist der einzige Weg sie zu töten. Wenn das ein Story Shooter oder ein ein single player Game wäre dann wäre es geil, aber so hat man keinen spaß im spiel.

### 2/5 — So much potential

*2026-07-03, version 2.15.1*

This game has the potential to be amazing. The pay to win in this game is the worst I’ve ever experienced. Be ready to spend thousands of dollars to get to upper ranking. It’s impossible to progress unless all of your gear/characters are maxed. They could easily just make it so that cosmetics cost $ and progress is earned.

### 2/5 — This game dying, killed by greed

*2026-07-02, version 2.15.0*

The community is rapidly falling apart, the game is a ghost town half the time, so you have to play with a mix of boys and real players, which often results in lopsided matches. Absurdly imbalanced. Don’t fall into the trap of paying for anything - it’s not worth it’s only a matter of time before they nerf what you bought. May not be pay to play, but it is functionally pay to win, with some obviously spending thousands to purchase and mod nearly invincible operators and weapons the moment they are released. This was once an amazing game, ruined by over-the-top greed of the developer.

### 4/5 — Cool

*2026-06-29, version 2.14.10*

Fix matchmaking beside good game play to me !

### 1/5 — Apollon

*2026-06-18, version 2.14.10*

Un nerf him the cool thing about him is that he can jump in the air, but why is he so vulnerable to get shot out of the air? No other player in the game is Nerf like that it’s unusual. return him to normal.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time and money

*2026-06-05, version 2.14.0*

No matter how much you played you gonna have a couple of overpaid player that will make your life, not easy the time and effort to develop one item of a character takes forever and then you get a decent load you have a moron, teammate cheering the top

### 1/5 — It was good in the first version

*2026-06-04*

The game was great in its first version (it had a different name back then). It was balanced, fun, and everyone could enjoy it, from beginners to veterans.

This version is terrible. It has become a pay-to-win game where only people who spend money can succeed. You end up playing against players who buy overpowered weapons. The game is neither balanced nor fair, and after a while it becomes very discouraging. The only thing it does is frustrate you.

I played the first version a lot and came back to try this one. However, I’m going to uninstall it because it’s a waste of time. It’s not worth it. You’re better off playing PUBG or Free Fire

### 1/5 — Для конченых

*2026-05-29, version 2.13.10*

Кто и создавал такие

### 1/5 — Lo peor del juego ….

*2026-05-17, version 2.13.1*

No me gusta porque está como en 3 persona , y para empezar está bien raro , porque nadamas giró la cámara y no se puede , y se auto dispara , me gustaría que estuviera como en 1 persona .

### 4/5 — Gameplay good but pay to win

*2026-05-14, version 2.13.1*

I love this game but come on it’s so ptw my highest opp in star 4 and I play max opps with dumb op weapons that 2 shot u honestly give cheaper prices and fix matchmaking

### 2/5 — N

*2026-05-14, version 2.13.1*

I get kicked out of the game right in the middle of playing and it always seems to be when I’m doing good about to win the match then boom a whole minute goes by on a 3:30 min match smh … I’ve spent money on this game now I can’t even get into it

### 1/5 — Pay to win

*2026-05-13, version 2.13.1*

This literally pay to win game. They scammed with just one grenade cost around 99.99 pound. What a fkin joke

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-05-09, version 2.13.1*

Tutorial is way too long and it has fake good reviews probably make the tutorial optional

### 1/5 — The developers are money hungry

*2026-05-08, version 2.13.1*

I came back not too long to find out that getting coins are harder almost impossible for you to upgrade to a certain level without paying 
You all are going to d** in h** for this bs

### 1/5 — Extortion

*2026-08-30, version 2.16.10*

Don’t even think about installing this game. The developers are incredibly greedy, and the sole purpose of this product seems to be to squeeze as much money out of you as possible.

No matter how much you upgrade your character and weapons, you’ll constantly be matched against players who are far stronger than you, clearly pushing you to pay, pay, and pay again.

This game isn’t about having fun. It’s about getting as much money out of you as possible.

### 1/5 — Tempo de procura de partida pessimo

*2026-08-24*

A cada dia que se passa jogar esse jogo fica mais difícil, não pela experiência, mais pela demora de carregamento de partida. Ficar esperando mais de 2 minutos a toda partida é frustrante, dá a dia q se passa tá pior.

### 1/5 — It doesn’t pair up the players at the same level

*2026-08-22, version 2.16.10*

At first it’s cool but then it starts putting you with players far above you league pairing is a big issue in this game you will start to hate the game

### 1/5 — Scam ALERT!!!!

*2026-08-21, version 2.16.10*

I bought the bow and arrow weapon. Maxed it out. And they updated the game and now it’s useless. I used to be able to shoot fast with it but the game has the worlds weakest servers that shooting fast crashes the game. So they sent out an update and now it shoot SUPER SLOW. So many people wasted their money. Every update is a sign that someone was playing too good and needed to be stopped. So a weapon is weaker, a dodge function is slower, movement and fire rates are slower. If you get good at the game they will start closing your app at vital times. Freezing and lagging you out. This game is evil and used to be fun but a scam now. The developers kids start loosing they change the game play so they can win. Soon this will be a fn RPGame😒

### 1/5 — Beware of this game

*2026-08-10, version 2.16.0*

Played this game since before covid. Back then it was great. Fair matches. Straightforward upgrades and reasonable prices. 

It’s become the opposite. What’s most disturbing is the ways the game makes have shifted updates. 

If you buy a weapon or a player, and spend money upgrading it, you will soon find they made it obsolete. A weapon designed to do something specific all of the sudden can’t. Had I known they would be doing this I wouldn’t have spent any money. 

The point being to force you to either spend more money to buy new equipment or simply start losing just about every game you play. 

Not just because your equipment is useless, but they pair you with AI players that run around in circles and refuse to fight together, forcing you to do all the work yourself. And it will be you against the whole other team.

I just lost 15 games in a row. 15. I never lost this many times before. 

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS GAME. you will get scammed.

### 1/5 — Unplayable while free to play

*2026-07-27, version 2.16.0*

The game is too pay to win now and in the past the game was way better and also it’s unfair having 3 star guns and facing people who have max star guns trash now days never playing until issue fixed

### 1/5 — This sucks

*2026-07-26, version 2.16.0*

Came back to this stupid game and it keeps telling me that I cannot connect to the servers. I’ve reset my phone, reset network settings, tried to update the app and reached out to support but have gotten NOTHING. THIS SUCKS.

### 1/5 — Rigged

*2026-06-29, version 2.15.0*

Strange how they have a 4.7 star review even with all the negative reviews

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2026-06-23, version 2.14.10*

You have to play to play, to many created teams jumping servers to win. Gets boring. Don’t waste your $$$ on any game. Read a book.

### 5/5 — Equipment

*2026-07-22, version 2.16.0*

I have to state this is a good game app to experience, there was a review about matchmaking & I agree 100% just tweak where the high end expert players are evenly matched & those in the lesser tier same. My MAJOR issue is the equipment is extremely difficult to achieve unless I purchase them to compete fairly, a player would have to invest months to upgrade their gear unless again I purchase the items. I get $ needs to be made but this dose create a problem.  Love this game & TY for all fairness

### 5/5 — Best game

*2026-06-29, version 2.15.0*

This game like crack🤣…. I love it

### 5/5 — Game is the best I have

*2026-06-04, version 2.14.0*

This game might be a little advanced for some people but is a really great game. If you are looking for something to do in your free time this is the game to go with. There are so many fun characters and modes you can play in. The only two things I would like in the game is a little more in the shop that I don’t have to pay for with real money. Also you need to fix the matchmaking, I started the game a bit ago and I’m playing probably people that are 10 times better than me, I either win by a ton or lose by a ton. But overall a really amazing game.

### 5/5 — This Game I good but bad

*2026-05-19, version 2.13.10*

If you are not a pay to win player the game sucks you can’t get a kill , you’re super slow , and most games are against super op ai that acts like players . The whole time you’re going against a super bot lobby , I have legendary Charon  and even at his base he is weak let alone his weapons .can you guys have some empathy and add a ranked game mode based on k.d/stars of operator and weapons , I shouldn’t be fighting level five opponents when my operator is only 2 or 3 .like I said earlier this game is to much pay to win it takes the fun outta the game o remember when I first play it was fun you could have a good match with any operator now it’s like you have to be maxed out to get a simple kill let alone you trying to kill multiple enemies , everyone spams gas grenades and dropping drone bombs to the point you can’t leave spawn . I understand there will be op players but why do I face them with such low level operator ??? Please add a accurate rank system

### 5/5 — THIS GAME IS AWESOME

*2026-05-07, version 2.13.1*

*2026-04-01, version 2.12.0*
