Ballistics are comically unrealistic for a game that tries to seem realistic. Like I just shot an elk at 400yds and got a whole two inches of penetration with the highest penetration round. Barely poked a lung. (30-06 still has the muzzle energy of a 30-30 at the muzzle at 400yds (still more than twice the speed of sound). Shotguns are completely broken,...

Rushed indeed. The positional audio is still bad. Vehicle physics are still broken, and the animal AI still needs a lot of work. I honestly don't understand why the developers rushed to release version 1.0. In Early Access, major bugs and unfinished systems are understandable—that's part of what Early Access is for. But once you release the game as...
Update: The Devs said in their last update they are working on paid DLC alongside trying to fix the bugs that are breaking the game and making it unplayable and frustrating for players.
