It's okay. The newest game mode is fun. However, for a company like Remedy that is all about storytelling, this game falls short in that area. I think L4D2 style campaigns would be perfect for this game. Traveling longer distances in the oldest house, lore scattered in the levels, etc.

Make no mistake, FBC: Firebreak is a GREAT multiplayer experience. While some would say there isn't enough content for hundreds of hours of gameplay, it isn't meant to compete with the Fortnites of the world for your time. Instead, it offers a tightly packaged, fast-paced cooperative experience designed for you and your friends to dip back into every few months. It isn't your traditional "live service" game, either: while there won't be a steady stream of new content each month, it also doesn't have any microtransactions. The "battle pass" system it does use cannot be bought with money and isn't time-exclusive. Personally, I find this approach much more consumer-friendly and ethical, without the manufactured fo-mo of live service games designed to trap players into frequent, repeating gameplay cycles. If you enjoy fast co-op gameplay and emergent, immersive-sim-style environmental mechanics (i.e. the interaction of elements and physics for unexpected results), this is a must try. Not to mention its set in the fantastic, one-of-a-kind world of Control and Alan Wake! Lastly, check out the online communities (such as Discord and Reddit) to find groups to play with. While this can be solo'd (and is actually quite fun, still), and while it does have a matchmaking service, nothing beats preformed groups.

Summary: FBC Firebreak is an immensely underrated PvE, objective-focused FPS that is dangerously overpriced and nearly dead, but undoubtedly still solid. $15 seems like the sweet spot in my opinion, but keep in mind that I paid about $23 during its last major sale--I personally feel I got my money's worth. I just so happened to give it a try, liked it, then loved it. An absolute must is at least one friend to play with due to low player counts, but the game still offers a memorable challenge if played alone. The ideal and intended experience is with three players. I managed to 100% the achievements of the game in about 30-35 hours. By my estimate, unlocking all in-game content could take about 40-50, which can be shortened if you play on higher difficulties and in parties. Bottom line, I do think this experience is worth having, but not at full price. Wait for a sale or price drop on this one. ----- I'm in a unique situation when it comes to FBC: Firebreak. For one, I wasn't actually a Control fan (when I purchased the game), but am a Remedy fan; and for two, I don't have too much experience with the objective-based PvE genre. Ironically, the closest I can come to experience with that is offered in Evil Dead: The Game, so I suppose I have a bit of a history with dying multiplayer games. That being said, though, I was having a bit of an FPS marathon on my PC and decided to give FBCF a try since it was on sale. I liked it, joining a game with two other players and sticking with them, completing various missions for about four hours. This was before voice chat, but they did what they could in-game to show me the ropes as I figured out how to use my Splash Kit to put out fires, heal my teammates, and even debuff my enemies. Eventually, though, one player left, then the other, and after being satisfied with that first session, I turned the game off for the day. I did not expect to come back time after time again, learning, improving, and enjoying more and more of the game each and every time I played. After nearly 30 hours of gameplay, I am, at the time of writing, a level 40 and am one achievement away from 100% completion. This game is going to be in my memory for a long time. I absolutely adore just about everything in it, whether it be the badass soundtrack that increases in intensity the higher your difficulty level, the hilariously casual and everyday voicelines from the "volunteer" player characters, the synergies with the three Crisis Kits and status effects, and, of course, the banter between Jerry and Hank in the menus. I also adore the "handmade" armor styles of the main protagonists, as well as the "DIY" nature of so many of the weapons and gadgets. There's a great deal of perk variety, as well, with some giving you some really cool effects, such as being able to remove harmful status effects by jumping repeatedly, as well as the ability to upgrade your perks to "Resonant" status, meaning your perk's effects will be given to all nearby teammates. Unfortunately, for a lot of people, paying $40 for Remedy's first multiplayer outing, especially in an industry with so many F2P live-service games, is an incredibly hard ask, and I understand that. Even at the sale price I purchased the game at, I still think it will be too high for most people. There simply aren't enough levels, weapons, gadgets, or even customization options -- at least not yet -- to justify that price. Essentially, I believe Remedy was banking on the support of the playerbase at the door, not over time, and while it may have worked for games like Helldivers 2, it unfortunately didn't work for this one, probably due to the lack of common features other games have, like voice chat (which was added in the most recent update). But a Concord this game is absolutely not. There is incredible love and care in every nook and cranny of this experience, and now that the game has voice chat, us veterans can do a lot of good shaping up new volunteers as they (hopefully) come in and join us in our never-ending war with the Hiss. I know that Remedy is planning on completing everything they had originally mentioned in their original roadmap despite the dramatic underperformance of this game, and I'm all here for it. For their first multiplayer outing, I'm absolutely stunned and can't wait to see what they bring next. Hopefully I'll see some more people out there soon to help us clean House. Just, uh... try not to price it so high next time, okay Remedy? ^^"

If you played or heard things before the Breakpoint update, then you need to try it now. It's much better, everything is way better; alternative mission objectives, 6 new weapons, gun mods, increased hiss health, great new level, and a rogue like game mode coming in a month alongside voice chat. I still wouldn't say it's worth 40$ yet. But 25 or below is a solid price when the game's on sale and to be fair they're not stopping on the updates and say this recent one is the first of many.

Remedy you guys need to realize if you aren’t making a live service game with extensive content support, $40 just isn’t the right price tag. Even if that is the case, this game still launched in a very weird state. First it does not have basic social features like text and voice chat. Sure you can get buddies in discord and what not to have fun, but bro you charge people 40 freaking DOLLARS. Something like that is expected. Second it has only three kits, and the game design entirely revolve around people using three separate kits together. If you try to play duo or alone, you simply will not have a good time. I have less problem with there are only five maps, but three kits to play with probably only one additional kit each season is some wild decision. Third, tutorial is absolutely garbage. Yesterday’s update have improved things a bit, especially the progression system, but the tutorial still doesn’t teach many things the game has. For instance, how do you combine the use of electricity and water? Knocking enemies off the bridge with the water kit? Kill the sticky notes faster? There’s not even a tutorial level that teaches the the basics of the basics. I really enjoy the game and see its potential, but I agree with the sentiment that Remedy could have done better despite this is their first time developing a COOP game. It is good to see them trying new ideas, however there are so many things about this game that seems not flushed out. I hope they really learn from this experience to develop something better in the future. Only consider buying this when you have another two buddies that are cool with jumping into the chaos of Control Universe, and buy it at a super low discount, which is likely going to happen very soon considering how poorly it has sold so far.
