125 hours and i've not seen everything. 20 dollars? well worth the price for one of the hardest platformers i've ever played. Love it so much!

Alright, I am amending my review. Game is worth it if you're a furry and want a shooter that's decent.

The game has been receiving updates every two weeks, roughly. Each one has had small balance tweaks, either to a Character, or guns. Often there's performance fixes and bug fixes as well.

Language issues in menu might be that there's one english speaking dev, though they might be looking into working on that going forward by possibly hiring a team, which would be a nice QoL.

There's still some people who have complaints about gunplay. I'm not a fan of how most guns "need" mods to feel decent, BUT the devs give you exp items by daily tasks so you can easily level up to get the mods you need, so I don't think this is a true issue.

Devs also seem to be eager for feedback of concerns regarding overpowered/underpowered guns and characters, both in surveys and Discord.

Low player population means that sometimes you get into one sided games, particularly if people leave during matchmaking. This actually should be fixed during an update that just got pushed today! But i've not tested it to see if this fixed the whole "i'm the only player on my team" issue.

I complained about the whole "there's only reskins for free currency, and paid skins are all that's offered otherwise". turns out some of the locked skins are offered for maxing out the EXP for a character. Further, they just offered a limited time event to get an all-black skin for the Bear, Vladimir, which actually looks awesome. So ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ are being added to the game, not just paid ones!


-All of this means i'm actually optimistic for this game !

-Some performance issues are already fixed by a performance update! So it's worth giving it a try now, for sure.



---- ORIGINAL REVIEW BELOW, leaving it up for transparency
I desperately want to like this game. I really do.

But playing this game feels like a chore.

Weapons have incredibly high recoil, virtually mandating that you level up the weapon or use them point blank to be effective. That's fine, achievements hand out exp items like candy.

They also hand out Beast coins like candy, which are worthless because only one cosmetic uses them.

Every other cosmetic requires around 10-15 bucks which feels like an insult on a 15 dollar game.

Speaking of, the game runs terribly. Animations don't play smoothly, and even on your own character, the fur is low-poly, and even your own clothes are really low detailed, even on high quality. Enemy players teleport around, making it incredibly difficult to hit shots with burst/dmr weapons, and even tracking weapons (AR/SMG) tend to be difficult, making the most consistent character the wolf so that you gain truesight and just snipe when it's safe to peak.


All of this combined makes this feel like "Furry bait", instead of a game made by passionate developers.

Now, i realize a few things. First, the game just started a new season, causing my brother to gift me this game. I'm not familiar with any communication from the devs, and can ONLY speak on the game's CURRENT state.

CURRENTLY, i find the game's poor netcode to be terrible, leading to many fights being unpredictable and just making the game feel "bad to play". And i also find it just sad that the entire rest of the lobby just "skates" around and has broken animations, since if someone is a furry, they likely want to actually LOOK at the other players, not just watch someone teleporting around and animate at ~5fps, when the game itself moves at ~60fps.

Since many cosmetics are either unobtainable or paid only, this makes the entire thing feel like furry bait, then left to be abandoned once the money dries up. And that's something that i find distasteful.

game is solid. I really do enjoy it. But the community is toxic. You die? teammate says GG. Teammate doesn't get the role they wanted? they don't queue dodge because that would get a temporary ban, instead they just throw the match, either running straight into enemy turret or just sit in spawn, at the keyboard but refusing to play. Stay away if you value your sanity.

Shockingly complex extraction shooter. 400 hours in, and i'm still learning new things about the game, and the devs have continuously supported the game. battlepass can be bought with ingame currency (10 bucks, but refunds 7 bucks worth of currency if you complete the battlepass), which makes it really rewarding.

Devs update game on a 3 month cycle, with PVP getting updates inbetween those patches. If something is overpowered, good luck seeing it get fixed in any reasonable timeframe (stasis took almost a year before it was brought in line)

Game stability is decreasing over time, with updates frequently being followed by extended downtime. This can take down the game during events, with no compensation for said downtime in a game that costs me 100 per year to play. Other games compensate for extended downtime, but not this one?

Probably a good game. Veteran player syndrome is in effect, but i can't stay away forever, so it's probably fine.

Amazing game, combat is deep. Well worth the purchase, esp since GamersGate is currently selling it for 15 bucks. Best played with Jolly Cooperation.

This is one game that I looked forwards to. I eagerly waited for its release, I rejoyced when I found out it would be F2P. But as of now, I will be uninstalling this game. Why?

Frankly, it is too punishing for a newcomer. I can't seem to hit anything, I don't think there is ping compensation and the opponents teleport all over the place (and this is with high fps speeds). When I do hit things, I get torn to pieces. My Time to Kill is less than a second, yet I can hit someone (and hear the hit sound) yet seem to deal no damage. In addition, either I am seemingly the worst player in Gunz2, or there is no substantial matchmaker. I can't seem to survive at all, and the Gunfighter esque character keeps stunlocking me with those grenades. I find the game exceedingly painful, and just can't stand the continuous punishment while ingame.
