Completed: Gray Zone Warfare
Wednesday, August 21. 2024
I love gaming. I've played all kinds of video games nearly my entire life.
Recently, I've been playing Gray Zone Warfare.
After 200+ hours, final mission is finally completed!
The last mission is brutal. The mission is to go to three worst possible places, locate and bring back mission items in each. To make things even more difficult, you don't simply sneak in/out, there is a minimum kill count that has to be completed at the worst possible locations. Brutal!
This immensly difficult and realistic game is a Escape from Tarkov -clone. In this game there are three factions of PMC and the idea is not to "escape". Your faction's home base is safe, base cannot be raided by other players. According to game studio, the idea is geared towards co-op, leave base to complete a mission -style rather than player vs. player. Both game modes exist. You absolutely can play a lone wolf game too, but given the punishing nature of this game where a single shot by enemy can kill you on the spot, having more eyes to spot enemies and more firepower to kill enemies makes avoiding death so much easier.
One last noteworthy thing is: There's going to be ~6 month cycle in the game. Everything will be wiped clean. All players are back to level 1 with not much gear in their lockers. At the time of writing, first (public) wipe is about to happen soon. That way those experienced players who have been playing this early-access game as it was made publicly available @ Steam won't necessarily benefit against newer players.
I cannot wait for the next version! We'll get day/night cycle and more missions and ... oh yes!
