What players say
Players who loved Battlefield Heroes find a faithful, fun successor, but a thin player base and a shallow long-term progression leave many wishing for more.
Most reviewers recommend the game and say it captures the feel of Battlefield Heroes: cartoonish vehicles and infantry, quick arcade matches, and a relaxed pace that suits a short session after work. Many players enjoy the varied classes, tank and plane combat, and the bot matches that let them play alone. The main complaint is the small player base: many reviewers say lobbies are often filled with bots, and some say they cannot find human opponents at all. Some reviewers also want free-to-play with cosmetics to draw more people in, while others say a paid model suits the game better. Some players report cheating and toxic behaviour, and a few criticise the lack of unlocks, weapon choice and maps. Reviews from the early access period are the ones we read, and the picture is consistently positive but cautious about the game's future.
Praised
- Battlefield Heroes feel
Reviewers say the cartoonish style, vehicles and arcade pace recall the original Battlefield Heroes closely.
Many players - Relaxed, fun arcade play
Players call the matches fun, goofy and low-stress, good for casual sessions and for playing with friends or family.
Many players - Vehicles and classes
Reviewers enjoy tanks, planes and the distinct classes, such as recon with throwing knives and the gunner's rocket jump.
Some players - Active developers
Players praise frequent updates, fixes and responsiveness to community feedback from the small team.
Some players
Criticised
- Too few real players
Reviewers say the player base is tiny, so lobbies are often full of bots and the game feels empty.
Many players - Thin progression
Players find there are no unlocks, abilities or weapon progression, so after a few hours little long-term goal remains.
Some players - Cheaters and toxic players
Reviewers report cheating, bug abuse and toxic behaviour, plus bad-faith players who can kick or ban others from locally hosted servers.
Some players - Recent changes and server model
Reviewers criticise camera removal, vanishing maps, and peer-to-peer servers that lag, plus a hat-focused economy.
Some players
- Who it suits
- Fans of Battlefield Heroes and players wanting a casual, cartoonish shooter for short sessions, especially against bots.
- Who should skip it
- Players who need a busy online scene or long-term unlocks should skip it for now, as many matches are bot-filled.
Short vs. long playtime: Players with over 100 hours mostly praise the community and updates, while those with fewer hours more often complain about empty lobbies and thin progression.
