It is unfortunate that this game just doesn't work on my computer. I play Contractors regularly using Air Link on my Quest 3 with little to no issues. But this game refuses to even open for me. When I hit play, the Anti Cheat pop up shows up and loads into a black screen. While the game opens and displays on my monitor, it just boots me back to the Oculus menu showing nothing but a Unreal logo. I understand that the game is in Alpha, so I hope this gets fixed, but for now I suggest holding out on this one, because it does actually look good.

(Exfil zone review) When you come from Ghosts of tabor and play this game you realise that this game is so much better then Tabor. Tabor used to be very good in its prime but unfortunately they killed it off by adding DLC's and buggy updates that completely ruined the feel of the game and the Immersion. When you play this game it may not have the *best* graphics (They're still totally alright) These devs know that the mechanics, performance, and gameplay is all its about for this game. I havent ran into a single cheater in this game (Yet) with my 70 hours of time on it and I have all traders at lv 3. The game sounds time consuming but a good day on this game will knit you lv 2 on two traders. The game is extremely generous with its starting loot and overall finding loot which I believe is amazing for new players. I will admit that bosses like the Metro boss and Mall boss spawn WAYYY too frequently allowing players to gear up on lv 5 - 6 gear too quickly. But I have no other issues for this game and I believe this game is worth a shot

Fantastic game, one of my favorites, actually. Tons of players on the extraction portion of the game and therefore can't talk about the battle royale. Easily one of the best VR games on the market rn.

If you're looking for VR Tarkov, This is it. Everything that you could want in an extraction shooter is in the exfil zone mode, plus it has a battle royale (if you actually want that kind of thing).

Doesnt deserve the recently mixed reviews, game has only gotten better with frequent updates, and is still only in ALPHA. Unbelievably fun and addictive gameplay loop thats only going to get better in April.

Absolutely - the PVPVE Exfil Zone is awesome - It's not perfect but it feels pretty well polishes considering its still in Alpha.

Fun extraction shooter. Its more of an extraction shooter first PVP second, where Tabor is more PVP first extraction shooter second. The SCAVs are so much better in this game and the Maps are way more varied, and much bigger. The mechanics: Looting, quests, available gear, attachable weapons, sights, etc are just way more varied and detailed. The trade off is slightly lower end graphics. So if you prefer the better game experience over Graphics this is your game. The devs have already added so much into Exfil Zone since it went live in Dec i'm only expecting good things in the future. Note: Review based entirely on the Exfil shooter experience, I have not played the battle royale. Exfil is more my speed. Also making the comparison with 270 hours into Tabor.

Very addicting. Systems are fleshed out, tasks feel realistically achievable, gun play feels smooth and realistic but not too overly realistic where you might as well just enlist in the military and do it IRL. All three maps are good Metro is fantastic for CQB and general PvP, Dam is by far the best for loot and Suburbs is an alright map kind of mid IMO. AI Scavs in this game are actually a challenge and not just Gmod player model statues with guns and Scav runs on Dam are probably my favorite part of the game (PLEASE DO NOT SHOOT SCAVS OR OTHER PLAYER SCAVS WHILE YOU ARE ON A SCAV RUN FOR THE LOVE OF GOD). As someone who immigrated from Tabor I will say as much as I didnt want to admit it at first Exfill is the better VR Extract Shooter as of writing this. Theres easily 90% less jank, tasks are actually realistic to do and accomplish in a reasonable amount of time for those of us that actually know what having a life outside of gaming is like and the BAGS OML so much better than Tabor you can actually put things in a bag like what the entire purpose of having a backpack is for and you can fit so much more in so much less. A mid-upper mid tier backpack can fit just as much as a ragnar could from Tabor. Keys/Vaults in Exfill are much more diverse and numerous than in Tabor and IMO just all around better. The movement system is great especially for those who can utilize it but even at its best its much more grounded than something like COD where everybody is role playing a Rabbit so it doesnt really cause an issue. Cons: Its rough out here for a solo player, doable yes, but this late into wipe everyone is kitted and the amount of duos i run into is insane. Even if i myself am kitted theres only so much one man can do. I dont think this is an issue that can, or rather should be fixed its just more of something youll just have to deal with. The food and hunger system while good is really annoying and not even close to being realistic i can understand water draining fast but I shouldnt have to eat a 5 course meal every 10 minutes. There are a few major bugs that i have lost a depressing amount of good loot too the main one being items just falling through the floor or just straight up disappearing. This is 100% the biggest issue the game faces right now and needs to be fixed ASAP as i personally encounter the bug in at least 15-20% of my raids. The learning curve - theres a hell of a lot more to this game than something like Tabor so be prepared. I personally took about 25 hours until i felt like i was getting the hang of it and 40+ hours until i felt really comfortable. This isnt really an issue but more of just something to be prepared for. Grenades - oh boy - the grenade spam is real. I wont rant about this too much but i really think at the bare minimum grenades need to be put in rarer loot tables because i STG i find more grenades than food and water in raid and grenades in this game are devastating. Whether you are in full boss armor or in your birthday suit, doesnt matter the grenade will mess up your day. Theres some other minor issues i have with the game but arent really worth mentioning and are probably more of a skill issue if were being honest. All in all this game is great especially at a modest $20 and even if you are a die hard Tabor fan i think youll enjoy this game because for me personally, its everything i hoped Tabor would be and its as close to a genuine VR Tarkov as we currently have right now and im pumped to see what comes in the Beta and beyond for this game.

I'm begging for this game to get a PVE for Exfil Zone, not only will it kill Ghost Of Tabor, but it'll bring in a much more casual audience even tho its still kinda brutal to fight the AI. While the PVP is great and fun, there are people out there that are insanely cracked, that it kinda stops players like me from wanting to keep playing, you can only do so many naked runs before you just get tired because like, you don't really get much.
