Community Insight:
Got this game when we heard the developer of Space Borders was making a new game. While very different from space borders, still a solid game that has kept us entertained for days. Keep doin what your doin.
We played this game in the previous version when it was called Triads and had a blast. Figured Id try to download the newer version of this game, but was disappointed to find out it crashes too easily. We worked toward getting the Battle Bus before doing the campaign, but now it crashes each time we start the mission Hold The Line. Id rate it 1/5 stars for that, but we still enjoyed the little bit of game we had.
Its 2023. How does any dev not know how to code controller support.
At the first look it seemed cheaply made, but after playing it for a while you realize how smooth the game is. We just have one question, how do we shoot the tank cannon.
Good game but too much crashing.
We played this game through and really enjoyed it. Nice take on the GTA feel without being a total clone. We liked the variety of vehicles, weapons, and troopers. We found the tutorial incomplete and misleading. We went through the tank mission without ever figuring out how to fire the main gun. Eventually we bought a tank and figured it out. The driving controls felt really awkward at first, but we got used to them. Flying is fun, and that was a nice compromise of complexity and automation. We bought a zeppelin, but we've never seen it. We don't know where to find it or how to summon it. The game did crash a couple of times. The small airport air taxi missions always crashed on us, and there were a couple of other less predictable crashes. Missions and side tasks were a lot of fun.
Edit 2: the recent update seemed to fix the big issues we've had with the game, and it ran smoothly all the way to an expected crash about an hour and a half later. Finally we can get back to crushing triads :) edit: we're using an ipad mini 4 with SD models and shadows disabled. A device reset did fix the issues, and surprisingly the game runs well afterwards with less hiccups. Thank you! :D here's our original review: this is our third time writing this up, ugh. This is a very fun gta/payback type game, with its own cool story and a variety of weapons and vehicles and whatnot. What sets it apart are the squad mechanics and city takeovers, at max difficulty it gets much harder to escape high level police encounters and triad swarms (have medics ready!). There are a good handful of bugs that break the game though. And they're REALLY annoying. Half of the time if you open the map (especially if you're in battle or in an area that uses lots of memory) the game crashes, editing your faction icon also makes the game crash, and driving on the freeway or in a town… You can fill in the rest. There's also this other bug in our gameplay, and it gives us a "Loading…" notification before crashing from seconds to a minute later. Now, though, we're having a fifth bug, and it's where the game crashes right when it loads a save file, or even when we enter the main menu first thing after loading the game. The game at this point is unplayable :( hopefully these bugs get resolved soon. A fun hidden gem of the app store this game is.
So pretty much, this game is amazing, we absolutely love it. However, recently when we have tried to enter the game it just closes it, same happens when we click on the Faction tab in the settings. Might have to do with the new update, not sure.
Can we have a update on the gangs like setting boundaries/ taxing other smaller gangs / generals that control cities for you but can rebel against you if you dont meet the demands of the city / and shoot on sight so less enemies free roam your blocks.
This is a top down GTA. Little repetitive but fun in little spurts.
We give you 3 star for you game.Because When we tap skip AD button.the is game freezes. So please Fix it right now. (R.we.P our English).
Let us know if that ever gets addressed.
Very fun open world game that scratches the top down shooter itch quite well. Feels a little bit like GTA, very few Ads, fun combat, and engaging progression with a lot of jobs to do and weapons/cars/upgrades to collect. Well worth playing.
