Worth the Hype? Incursion Red River PVE Extraction Shooter 

Some of yall don’t understand what pre-alpha is and it shows. Tons of potential here and for $13? No brainer

Reall enjoying it for the relative low price. Reminds me of the old ghost recons and R6 terrorist hunt. Glad we finally have a PVE option for this genre, my reflexes aren't like they use to be in the 90s.

Let me think.. $250 for the new Tarkov edition or.. $16.99 and groceries?

Been playing this for a bit and it has been a blast with friends! However, I do want to pinpoint a few things: Weapon Customization on the old version, Project Quarantine, felt much more extense than it is now. I also find it somewhat counter-intuitive that you must inspect the weapon before you are able to change parts like stocks, grips and dust covers. Arena Breakout does it simple with a Gunsmith menu. But regardless, it feels nice converting AKs from Polymer furniture to Wooden furniture. The map itself feels tiny, but there is plenty of room for Sniping / Recon along the Quarry and different tactics as well. It looks tiny, but it’s a nice playground for those Ghost Recon Wildlands moments. I also saw a comment on guns looking too clean. I am hoping that with the durability spec on weapons as you use them and extract with them, they also get more worn. Because if anything, it might hint at jams like in Far Cry 2. Plus, this is just for $13? I am sold.

am okay with small maps (thats how tarkov strted it) since big maps can cause fps-optemization issues, sticking with small maps is the way to do it, at least until they have a stable version of the game

very good summary, thank you!

Potential but a lot of things are needed to make this great. Factions need more info. I have no idea what levels I’m at. Main base should have mannequins to store personal gear. My bags take up so much space in the stash so this would make a nice addition. Customise the mission parameters, like AI difficulty, number of bots, what faction the bots come from.

Dangit I waited to watch this and should've watched it as soon as I saw it 😂 Maybe next time haha

This is a wholesome review, one of the best out there :] GJ.

They lazyness in todays games created a new standard for AI. they just spawn and roam but they have no purpose and they don't do anything. They game is already PvE only, so why not create quests with actual scripted AI that react to you and respond to the quest and try to prevent you from completing it? the primitive Tarkov quest formula of "go there, fetch that, mark this" is so old. what happened to actual missions that effect the game world?

As a dude who havent played a single second or tarkov, this might be a decent alternative for me. I think i will pick this up

It’s funny the free extraction shooter games like Arena breakout and Lost light have AI that are really made well. Some of them even collect loot from fallen players or just other loot. I’m surprised how free game have better AI than the ones that we pay for.

Thanks for the Key dude, really appreciate it and your content!

Thanks for the key! Appreciated!

Funny enough, another content creator claimed that the current map is "too big" and the devs biting off more than they can chew... Honestly, I think we can all agree that this game is rough but what keeps me interested personally is the fact that the devs have been pretty proactive with hotfixes, addressing concerns, and embracing the criticism. Something I can't say with every other early access title as of late. Their recent Q&A just made me excited for what is to come.

You can actually have the AI hunt you down if one fires a shot, if you have the custom difficulty, you can boost how far they see you and how far they will go to find you, max the follow and boost up the vision abit and they will be hard and immersive like that.

For its price atm yes it worth it. :D

Something like arma reforger ai would be sweet, but I love this game.

i did a couple of game and i have to say that im really enjoing that. it have to improve a several aspects but ehy, its 13€/$, for the experience that offers and the content that will be released in future, (there is a roadmap of 2024) i think it's worth.

There is one HUGE difference from this and TARKOV... NO HACKERS !!!!

Great game and its in early stages, I enjoy playing it and the price is affordable, I have only had it a couple of weeks and there are regular updates and new stuff. Give it time.

I'm liking the idea of this game

I just can't get over the disparity between gear and setting. This is basically a Russia vs. USA scenario that somehow takes place in Vietnam. BTR-82As everywhere, AK-74s everywhere, TIGRs everywhere. NOT a single Vietnamese weapon or map asset, not a single Chinese weapon or map asset. Why have it take place in VN in the first place?! It is also very discouraging that the dev plans to release only 1 (one!) more map during the next 12 months. If anything a game like that needs a lot of maps to keep things fresh.

I have only played 2 raids and the 1st one I spawned and was immediately head shot, than the 2nd one I got shot through a wall. Had zero idea where the guy was. I’m going to try and restart my account to get guns back

16.99. That's all I need to know. And it's not in full release yet. I'll give them time, but I already bought it.

after the implosion that was tarkov today(technically yesterday as of writing this) this game will probably replace tarkov for me and FOR ONLY 17$! (not another 100$ or 250$ for a new player

How do i get night vision in game? I need it

For the price. Its a good game. Im enjoying it. Ready or not sucks. I got fedup of getting 0.01 sec head shotted the moment an ai opens a door.

From developer via STEAM... Why Early Access? “Incursion Red River was released as a demo in 2023 to let everyone know that a co-op extraction shooter was being made. Now, we’re at a point where we’re ready for mass player feedback and playtesting. Having the community be a part of the game’s development is something we’ve always wanted. We will be able to see the game's direction unfold, listen to feedback, and ensure the game is fun, polished, and bug-free as possible before it fully launches.”

i hope the game succeeds but i just dont see it living too long when gray zone warfare is coming out and is practically the same game but 10x better

No. I have a 4070ti i9 14900kf and put settings to low and ones I try to load the game in it freezes my pc

My concern has been the same with these types of games.. the AI. It's been too long where I've seen a tactical shooter with good AI, like the game FEAR you mentioned in the video. So far maybe Ready or Not has achieved some level of it (if you ignore their aimbot and aggressiveness), but I only say that because other tac shooters have very basic AI and never really improve from there. We're in 2024, games have had massive improvements in graphics but AI development felt like it hasn't moved at all.

I’m enjoying it 🤷🏻‍♂️

Can we get an ak74m drum mag?

Does this play on steam deck yet?

Game shows good potential, the real question is, will it reach it? Or will it be Ubisoft'd?

Hey nice review. Can you get more keys?!

Smaller Tarkov without cheaters Im in probably in the next year. if we have content.

How do you rotate items in inventory?

Does it look like Gray Zone?

whoa! how do you check the mag?

Aby other? Grayzone 😂

Bro why tf didn’t this game come out on console like its on steam deck with controller keybinds I don’t get it and the steam deck doesn’t even give you 120 fps at 4k but console does and it didn’t come out for console shit is wack

game needs alot of work (its pre alpha) ya cant shoot through windows. which is really lame. not finding meds is another issue. some of those ai will one tap you worse than a few patches ago in tarkov. also the AI really want some water lol. so far no eating or drinking and you just sell everything you find. I assume that will be change later

refunded after 10 mins

Nah performance even on a 4080 is shit

I don't like how the guns look way too clean for an extraction shooter. Guns should be worn down and look like they have been used before like in stalker. Atleast the gunplay is better then road to vodensky. In RTV the gunplay is horrible and the AI is ridiculous.

Def not that great, but it's great for $13! I do not like how moidawg or whatever is completely shitting on every new and old game that's like this. Very odd strategy.

Definitely not worth all the hype or the price

This game is terrible even for an alpha you basically see all the content in an hour , also i hate lazy textures and the ceilings are the floors in the buildings...

no content, going to be years before it's done. don't waste your money.

no pvp....snooze fest
