Crytek has made one of the best battle royale/survival pvp games ever.
This game is not for the casual cod players or apex legends players, no, this is a true thinking mans shooter where the reckless end up dead.
Perma death is a huge part of this game.
Before each match you hire a Hunter and equip him/her with weapons and tools to hunt contracts (monsters) in Louisiana swamps in the late 19th century.
If your hunter dies during the mission, he is gone for good along with everything you carried with you.
Up to eleven other hunters also hunt the contracts on the large maps (two maps at the time of this review, Lawson delta and Stillwater bayou).
You can go at it in solo, duo or trios, the first being the hardest because you face duo or trios by yourself.
If you succeed your mission, you level up your hunter and can add traits (perks) that make him better. Be it longer stamina, take more damage, bandage faster, steady aim or what ever traits you add, you will build a powerhouse of a Hunter (up to 15 slots of traits) for the next match. But it could all end if your hunter dies... and it's back to square one again.
I would like to add, to all you pve players, that you can play a whole match without meeting any other players. Also, Crytek recently added pve missions.
I will not go into details about monsters, contracts, hunters, weapons and traits and will let you experience it by yourself.
See you in the bayou, hunter.
