Wow soooo bad
Sucks worse after update! I didn’t think that was even possible! Gave up and deleted this total sewage waste of a game!!!!!!!!!!!!
Balls
Game never loads. Get stuck in loading screen every time
Matchup tweak needed
Could be a really great game but the league should be power based not trophy based. I won so much I’m now being punished for not paying by being forced to play with people with triple my health and double my power. I would love to give a better rating for a fun game but the league system is currently trash!
This game is ridiculous
I had a streak 11 I died and then I died I died. I died. I died. Every person in this game just pay for a dumb shooting game. I mean it’s just a shooting game. I can’t believe people spend 100 of dollars I mean it is some dumb shooting game then you’ll say don’t say stuff like that to me. All I want you to do is make this game better. that is literally the one thing I wanted for this game.

This game sucks
Pay to win
The league makes it much worse because the matches technically crank the sbmm, every player will somehow have way better equipment than you and the only way you can upgrade your equipment is paying real money and don’t get me started on the amount of pop ups there is on this game…
Controller worked until last update!
Pay to win. Not cool. Not cool at all. Especially after spending a gang scratch! 🤬
Not balanced
There is currently no balance to the game and it remains a pay to win situation. Unlike cod or games of the sort where you can only gain advantages from time. Guns like the mini gun and skins and supers of the wolf are fully pay to win and have no real draw back.
Needs Changes
The matchmaking needs to change. Split out the people that grind out leveling up from those that paid to level up. It wouldn’t be hard since you can remove ads with a purchase.
Arena pass is very pay-to-play incentivized. Why not let someone who completed every level/tier start over or at least increase the reward.
I get you gotta make money but leveling the playing field would go a long way.

Pay to win
The game is fun, but unless you’re willing to pay real money, you will take forever to progress and you get put into matches with people who have so much health but one shot you, because they payed their way up. I think there should be purchasable items but not things like over powered weapons and items. Makes the game terrible, I’m actually shocked this game has a high rating.
Pay To Win
Unless you are willing to pay, the match making isn’t fair. You could be level 10 with a level 50 player so naturally you will lose. The amount of ads they push and the fact you won’t go any higher proves it’s a pay to win game. Needs much better match making!
Didn’t get what I paid for
Bought a gun that was supposed to be fully equipped as a deal and I’ll I got was the base gun.
Purchases
Careful with purchases on this App. Charged x2 but only received 1x credit. Has happened multiple times.
Purely Pay to Win
Sad really, game is fun but the only way to get good stuff and increase survivability in gameplay is to spend money…and for that I’m out!!
Special modes
Get rid of heist, control point is the only special mode that’s good and the fact it’s only one every other day, sucks!
Wont let you play unless you purchase something
Forced you to buy something or you simply won’t be able to play
Dumbest bugs
Literally the worst bugs ever in this game!! Literally can’t even play it at all!! It just has a purchase pop up and no matter how many times you click X to close it, it just won’t go away!! Stuck on the same page like that X button don’t even exist
Predatory
After opening the app I’m stuck on daily offers that I can not by pass unless I spend money. Meaning I can’t access the game unless I pay money on daily deals. 👎🏾
Ok let’s be real this time
I actually genuinely used to like this game, to the point where I made a suggestion to add the Gun Game mode because I really loved this, but now it is nothing but a way to frustrate me.
First, the matchmaking isn’t good at all because I ALWAYS join people who have much higher and more advanced equipment than I do, where they abuse that Kamikaze armor where they kill me with very little effort after I struggled to kill them.
And I PAID money in this game out of desperation to actually meet people who are within my level, but the problem still persists. What’s the point of paying money in this game if your day keeps getting ruined by these high-levels EVERYDAY non-stop. Or this is just a cashgrab to make me keep spending?
This game was fun at first but now, I really don’t like it.
Second, the bots (who are supposed to lighten the game and make the game less intense than it already is) are EXTREMELY AGGRESSIVE, where they can easily kill me across wide maps like Memphis and they never miss a shot. It’s easy to say that they are much harder to kill than average players, especially if they have high-level equipment. And this isn’t a fast paced shooter like Call of Duty, so these bots really give us a hard time.
Third, I get killed at times, the problem is, I sometimes don’t know how I got killed, it happens randomly a lot where I just find myself dead with no real information on how I got killed.
This game was fun, but not anymore.

Very good want cheaper prices
The game is extremely fun exciting and fast pace. I like the auto aim shooting aspect. Were you merely have to look at your opponent to take them down I do have some issues with some of the packs like the lucky pack gives you 1000 gems but something that’s five dollars gives you 1000 gems as well compared to like a 1 to 2 the two dollar chest doesn’t make any sense. I would like to see more five dollar deals that range from 1500 to 2000 gems to make it easier to level up otherwise very fun and I will keep playing it.
plz
plz add controller support
Greed
You can only be good if you spend money. So I deleted it
I love the game but.!?…..
I don’t like how I spent 200 diamonds that I watch agonizing videos and played hours of game play to buy your character cartel and now I have to buy him again please look into it I really love the game and will love to keep enjoying it.!?😖
Zero
Used to be fun. Now as soon as you open it, you’re stuck with a pop up of an in game purchase & the X in the corner is conveniently disabled and doesn’t work. However, the purchase button works just fine 🤣
I’ve closed the app and reopened, same thing happened. What a joke LOL forcing people to pay in order to play is wild.

Skill based
This game would be more fun if everyone is within the same level for guns, armor, etc. I’m lvl 30 and I’m going up against lvl 70-80! Not fair and it makes it less enjoyable
Pay to win
Just a battle of who pays the most to win and believe me they want you to spend ALOT….
Stupid
The game puts me in the mind of T3 Arena first couple games when you start as fun and then after you level up a couple levels, you shoot them more than you should have to and then they turn around and shoot you once or twice and you’re dead just like T3 Arena I will not support this game
It sucks for all of us players
This is a great example of how this game works. Lie and steal right in front of your face by Nerfing weapons and characters. Not adding anything new to the game. And trying to change all the little details in which they should be putting out some more maps and actually listening to the players that are giving them feedback. yet we have another cut and paste “NEW” season, From the developers of this game. It actually blows my mind how fun this game used to be and these last six months, it has done nothing but Straight snowballed to……..
Teams
The worst matchmaking I’ve ever seen in a game.
Matches are so one sided.
Matches are so one sided.
Great game. Except this one thing which kills it.
Game is fun and fast.
$9.99 a WEEK? For premium?! A month, I understand. You don’t offer that. Just $9.99 a week.
Will give you a proper rating when you realize how silly that is.

Not a bad game
The only reason why (I could play before) is because it won’t load, I waited for 20 minutes and it didn’t load :( pls fix your servers
Pay to win
This game is fun except for them constantly throwing “buy this” in your face every minute. And it’s the most pay to win game I’ve ever seen. Like spend real money to get the best gear, if you don’t then you get alright gear and never enough money to upgrade it. Was fun for a bit..
Fun for a day but its super pay to win
You get power gapped extremely quick. I did had fun until that point! But now i literally can’t kill anyone
Shooter!
Good game foreal
Support controllers!
I love this game and it would be so much more amazing if you guys support controllers like the backbone.
Pay to win beats skill
I am incredibly good at this game, I mean, I wreck most players that are stronger than me and the ones weaker are destroyed and it’s fun but like I just see these guys with the craziest gear and I see people with so much health they’re like invincible, it’s not even cool, you should be placed in matches by your gear and health, maybe even by money spent or something cause some people just have not that many trophies and they’re really tough.
4.9 are you serious!!
I don’t know how this game got a 4.9 stars this game is a for sure pay to win game!! At first it was fun but when u get to higher you have to really spent some money!!
