I’ve been playing for a few days and I have progressed fairly enough and I personally have not experienced a single bug or crash. *I am not saying that to discredit the ones saying so, I’m just disclaiming I have not experienced anything*. The game itself is fairly unique in a lot of ways while also being similar to other games. If you liked stuff lien epic 7 then you should feel right at home with this. This game also lends more playtime and things to do than games like Arterygear which falls short on more than one thing(unfortunately). It’s free, try it out. I definitely recommend it for sure as I think it’s one of the best gatcha games I’ve played recently for mobile. But if you are worried about possibly having corrupt saved and such then you *should not spend money on this game**. If you still may be worried then try and come back later this year. Also as someone who has experience in many gatcha games, this game does not seem to be P2W at all ? From other things I’ve seen and only playing for a week I have not seen anything that would point to that ? Starting to feel like the reviews saying that are from people who don’t know/want to grind. You know what you are getting into with these games and grinding is something you have to do. I’m Not paying a penny for this game and I still find it enjoyable. I have a IPhone 13 Pro Max that’s only a few months old just for reference. I don’t know if it’s device driven or something else that’s causing other people’ issues. I hope they can fix it though because seeing alot of bug reports will push anyone away. But for what the game is, pull rates and gameplay, definitely solid.

Really unfortunate but I’m back now and have noticed a lot of new content. Wish I never left! I wish this game and game company the best and I hope they prosper. One of my favorite gachas for sure! I love this game so much. I’ve played it for 2+ years now and would say this is a top 3 gacha game. I’ve played so many games and this one really stuck with me. I love the story, characters, combat, all the different/diverse missions. Obtaining gear is the name of the game and is crucial to being successful. Obtaining gear isn’t easy but it’s not hard either. There is a good amount to be obtained but to roll the exact stats you want can be a little hard and like every other gacha you need to pray to the RNG gods. But all in all this game has a great community, seems like the devs have a passion for the game and listen to the community. They have a roadmap for future content which is nice to see what’s upcoming every month…

TDLR: Definite recommend- simple (don’t really have to use your brain that much) strategy, great graphics, good characters & backstory, and intriguing story. Also Korean. I genuinely did enjoy playing the game, experiencing the story, the characters, and the combat. The only problem is, I played everything I’m fairly sure I could’ve and I’m not a very patient man so of course- I uninstalled to go download something else on my phone. I would come back if they added more story bits but personally it was a one and done deal. For those wanting to play I’d definitely recommend this game, great fun, nice time spender. You don’t have to pay to play/win, and it uses strategy (unless you filled your squad with overpowered units) to win the game, although it’s not Arknights kind of strategy I still do enjoy the simple strategy thing it has. (Soldier/mech-only squad viable when??)

Its been a while since then and I must say that I genuinely enjoyed the game and events. However I noticed several p2w aspects that ruins the game for me. A new counter character is released one after another by the next week or so and its incredibly infuriating because of the lack of gems that we get from just playing, I don't want to have to spend so much money just to get one character that I want and the amount of money required to spend for skins is ridiculous, I know you need to make money but come on now this seems like over doing it. Lastly I want to talk about the horrendous storage issue. Every time the game needs to update i get an error that claims that the game cannot update due to insufficient storage even though i have mote than enough storage, because of this annoying issue it prevents me from opening and playing the game. At this rate I'm tired of storage issues. Like how much storage is required for an update? Its completely ridiculous to have to put up with such a turn-off from a pretty good game. please fix the storage issue.

Is there anyway from the dev team you can see what happened? I hope you can see the selection history because she is not in my collection. I really hope this can be fixed because I really do enjoy the game but I feel like I was definitely wronged. I only have one anniversary ticket and I never got my unit and it really killed my motivation for the game. I just hope I can get her back or be able to make the same selection again after working so hard to get it. Thank you

The UI is Atrocious I’m not a new player I’ve played for a about a year and I had trouble navigating through it. If an experienced player can’t navigate through it new players won’t even be able to play. The hololive collab is a joke trying to get the free skin will take ages you might as well buy the skin instead. That’s how everything is now. It will take ages to get anything. Now loot is harder than ever to get. Now that Japan is merged with us pvp is a mess with pay to win players from Japan. They are ahead of us with units, updates. Skill is out the window now in pvp just spend some money. Overall the game was downgraded from being somewhat free to play to now only being able to get everything within the next year or of course spend money to speed it up or get what you want. The story is sub par with predictable plot twists. It felt like every chapter had plot twists and it became very predictable in my opinion. Game got worse and very unrewarding

I have never played a more mentally draining pvp game than this. Do not believe the role advantage / disadvantage in this game. The meta gear is so strong that disadvantaged units can kill their opposing role in one shot. There is no balance. You win if you camp better than your opponent unless you are facing a rush comp, then you just make sure they can’t break your defense. You got the most recent broken awaken unit? Just play protect that unit, camp, and you win if they stay alive. Warning: DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR MENTAL SANITY. Also don’t bother sending tickets to support unless it’s about spending cash on the game; they don’t care and throw your ticket in the trash. They refuse to fix any of the bugs unless most people can’t play the game. You’re one of the few who can’t play? Good luck getting them to help you. The community discord offers far more help. Don’t waste your time on this game.

I love much of what the game has to offer. However, lately I’ve been experiencing consistent crashes which is completely ruining my experience. This mostly occurs as I navigate through menus. The game would just freeze then take me back a few seconds before. You can’t even imagine how annoying this is when managing your inventory. Even when I do summons the game would freeze then take me to the menu screen. The summon still is counted for, but I wouldn’t know what I got. Also during PvP, when picking your load out it would freeze in the middle of your selection and place you at your previous load out. It’s becoming unbearable at this point. Not sure if the Counterside community ever addressed this but I hope the developers can fix this issue.

Thanks for the game tho Update: the gameplay is actually a bit more hard to do and I’m on episode 9.5 I like the challenge honestly they found a way to bring me back which I enjoy lots and the fact I got a new awakened unit too soo thanks very much for the game I really enjoy it that’s why I updated it to 5 stars

I love the character design. The story is the best part to me though as I’ve enjoyed the replacer syndicate arc. Now onto the problems. The difficulty spikes on certain missions are out of hand and infuriating. My level 100 characters are being beat by level 80-90 characters quickly….that's ridiculous. The end game is so predatory and p2w that there’s no way i could recommend this to anyone that isn’t willing to spend hundreds of dollars in this game. Character pull rates are atrocious as well. Hopefully things will change and become better and more enjoyable (I doubt it) but if the game continues to stay the way it is now, I’ll definitely stop playing and tell all of my other friends to stop as well.
