I'd honestly rather have this be a gothic successor than some online survival blah blah but it could have some potential. The char creation video is pretty great, and showcases a surprising amount of actual game mechanics.

I like it how the game has a stat for the number of teeth you have left. Also, the autistic approach towards stats and gunplay gets my seal of approval.
The devs seem to be aware (at least to some degree) of the crap that's infesting the other games in this genre, which actually gives me hope for a quality product.
Animations for instance, your typical crafting+sandbox+survival cancer combo usually moves like something pulled out of an anus.
Here, while still not 100% fluid, it looks miles ahead. The inertia effects while running and parkour is looking really great.

What I am not too keen about are the wallhack skills, here's hoping they balance it somehow. Other than that, it's commendable that in game character skill appears to > twitch skill.

I'm not a big fan of the whole battle royale spiel (although the devs swear it's not your typical BR, yeah yeah, right...), but what caught my attention in the steam FAQs
is that single player content is a possibility as well as local servers where you set all the rules.

Damn, I thought it's going to be a game about British delinquents akin to Bully, except in a penitentiary...

Going by the first round of reviews this is a massive fail. People report a shitting and pissing simulator with numerous technical problems and very little content.

I dunno how that is surprising to anyone. It is always the same stuff at launch.

So far the main complaints are technical issues and "cheaters". Otherwise the game is way more feature rich than Dayz was/is.

Unfortunately those kinds of games are more entertaining for me to watch than to play myself. Hours of boredom and busywork punctuated by moments of extreme terror.

My team has the sexiest and deadliest waifus you can recruit.
Croteam's just doing the producing, the actual developers are some other Croatian studio, which may have been an offshoot from Croteam.
If it was a Croteam game it'd be using the Serious Engine, in any case.

Eh "another Croatian studio" ?! I am getting premonitions of another Spintires.

Putting the whole premise on a pissing and shitting simulator and John Dick jokes will get old after a few days, a crappy engine and outsourced development does not help either.

I predict this will be another major flop like the other games in this genre. For anyone just interested in the outdoor graphics, just get Arma 3 instead which is very mature now and not going away anytime soon.
