It's a great game, even better with a solid group. Probably one of the best releases of the year.

- There is friendly fire 100%. That includes your team, the turrets you may drop can insta-kill you, the little bots you can get to help you can kill you. There are a lot of frustrating deaths because of this. YOU don't make a mistake, the turret just turns to shoot something and shoots you. The bot helper "guard dog" also has what I consider a major flaw/bug where if it is aiming downhill it WILL sweep across you and kill you. It also includes when someone sits their 10 yo kid at the PC and they are dropping bombs on your or aggro'ing everything on the map.
- There are bugs, some major, that have been in the game since launch while the devs are about to release their third "premium" content add-on. Fire damage over time only works for the host. The automatons can shoot you and detect you through rocks, hills or mountains. Matchmaking fails or crashes the game at times. Certain weapons being used in multiplayer can crash everyone's game.
- There are conflicts with play style at higher levels. Some people are farming the materials for upgrades, so they want to run off solo and collect stuff. Others are done, or don't care, about the upgrades and want people to stay together to fight. Since barely anyone uses a mic, you are expected to just understand what they expect at times in randoms.
- The dev team seems to be a little lost on the idea of allowing solo play or not. This weeks they just upped the spawns and enemies by 50% for solo players. They describe this as a "fix" even though the game had been like it was since launch. This impacts even the "easy" missions. Basically it seems to increase difficulty by 2 tiers. Don't believe the Youtube videos of people playing tier 9 solo.... it requires constantly running from everything and even the most popular Youtuber that posts solo runs admitted most people will not find it a fun way to play.
- Lastly, it is repetitive. Be ready to kill the same enemies, on similar landscapes every single mission. There is no story, no background. Just go in, kill these things, evac.
Sorry for the rant, but the game has enough cheerleaders and a lot of people do like it enough to overlook some really glaring issues. Honestly, it should be in early access right now until they can decide on how to balance things and work out the laundry list of known issues. The devs are gearing up now based on the 750k+ launch numbers, while the player count this week has dropped to under 100k. Still great numbers, but every week is seeing 25-50k drop off.
Even with the various bugs and a few game mechanics not working properly, it's been worth it at every stage since release. The gameplay experience itself makes it worth it (if you're into hoard shooter coop games and/or the starship troopers vibe).
Currently there was a rebalance patch and despite an overwhelming amount of buffs, the fact that a few OP weapons were nerfed seems to really sting those that are really dead set on one loadout and aren't big on experimenting with different builds. I guarantee as a new player, you're not going to think "wow I sure wish this is OP", nor are you even going to notice that the weapons that were nerfed even had any history behind it. There was the same backlash the first round of nerfs and despite the intense backlash, everyone forgot about it in a week because the complete weapon and stratagem is very expansive and almost every single option on the list is viable if thought is put into what you pick. I'd probably say only the minefields are still useless with the latest patch.
You could easily spec out a Intel Arc 310 system for: $30 ram, $95 i3-12100 cpu, $90 h610m mobo, $100 arc 310 gpu, $20 128gb storage, $36 case, $45 500w psu. I think that's everything. That's $416. I think some people used integrated graphics, so maybe you could roll the cost of the GPU into a better processor. You can use un-activated Windows for free. You could probably get 30 fps on low. It's not particularly powerful, though.
This is all assuming the arc gpu can even run it (Looks like Reddit people run it using 770 and the 310 is faster than 1050 ti). As another comment said, if you're able to spend $700, you'll get a WAYY faster system.

A friend bought the game for me since I built him a PC. Not even two weeks later and we stopped playing it. It's fun at first but it's buggy and there's no campaign or other types of gameplay. It's just fight, go back to ship, fight, go back to ship. Nothing to really play towards and frustratingly buggy as is.
I used to use them but swapped to gg.deals (if PC only). AKS is showing a lot of non pc results when I searched HD2, a listing for access go a Steam Account with HD2, and no listing for HD2 Super Citizen separately. On mobile, there's also a long list of filtering I have to scroll past to get to the results. I think gg.deals is better, you may need to change the settings on the site to display gray market sellers though as by default it may be disabled.
Not true anymore.

Sounds counterintuitive, but I find difficulty 7 easier and much more enjoyable than 6. 8 and 9 are just chaos and there's no avoiding it.
Honestly the chaos can be fun too. I've got a 75 but the best way I can describe it is Rambo 4-6 but you have to play like it is a Metal Gear game.
