There are still problems
What do players think of the update? The community is divided over the update and the changes it brings. There are still technical issues such as lags. For some, the update cannot be installed at all. In particular, repair costs and weapon balancing are criticized.
Chinaski_the_HATER comments on Reddit: “Repair costs are now incredibly high. All the weapons are ruined, and I see no new content.”
Others do not see it quite so critically and are happy about the update.
leokinss says: “I am very grateful for the update. However, I am struggling with performance issues.”
Nitebot explains: “This looks like a very interesting update. There are bug fixes and much more – that’s good.”
What has the update brought? So far, the Phoenix update for the online shooter Ironsight has not been as successful as hoped. The developers still have a lot of work ahead. However, they have rekindled interest in the shooter. Even players who stopped months ago want to take a look at Ironsight again.
Will the developers succeed in making Ironsight a sort of free Call of Duty now?
