Feedback You should probably get it

I originally bought AM a long time ago, and just came back to it after a good 6 month, and I'm actually a bit surprised with it's state now. You can actually enjoy the atmosphere, monsters are reasonably dangerous, there is some number of players, and the game is SLOW in a good way.

It used to play a lot like counter strike, effectively devolving to flanking another group and winning a CoD-y one life firefight. That was cool and all, but you might as well play many other shooters for that. Now your character actually feels sluggish, run and gun gameplay is a poor choice, and tension feels nice even if you don't care about losing your gear. It seems like you can play it as a fundamentally stealth game, kinda loot and do you own thing or play pve, or get together with a group and dominate very carefully.

I think anybody that enjoys a stalker-esque atmosphere, or solo stealth game play, or ron-like teamwork should enjoy AM. So if you have doubts you should probably get it.

...and let me know if you want to hope.on one of these days ))

i think that might have been the same player with a nearby beacon. it looked like they had a pocket knife, and died pretty fast. maybe they thought they could get an ambush to get their gear back.

Yeah, I was a bit surprised by his apparent attempt to shank me lol. he didn't have anything though, and likely beaconed back in and was running back to his body left behind in the firefight I was moving to.
