Also I'm going to add that it does spark interest in people. When the game came out none of my friends knew about it. When I spammed the invite button to invite all my friends into a party a bunch of them added the game to their wishlist.
Yes but that's not the problem, it certainly does spark a lot of interest but it doesn't keep them interested because of the lack of depth. You could argue that depth doesn't make a game fun, that may be true but it certainly does keep more people interested in it for much longer. ATM this game is pretty bare-bones in the amount of content it has. And yeah I know it's getting vehicles and possibly more stuff in the future, but the problem is that it doesn't have much now and when more stuff comes in I'll probably give it another shot and I'll probably like it a lot more. The amount of maps is pretty ok though, there is the variety in the types of maps I'll definitely give it that. But whenever I played the same map a few times it got boring really fast so yeah. Honestly I did expect a bit more from a $15 game that isn't even in early access.
But anyways if you and your friends like it that's perfectly fine, not trying to spoil your guy's fun or anything, just pointing out why I didn't like it too much.
