Good game that needs a Solo balance ASAP (hat-tip to Devs for mapping this)
At the outset, I’m a fan of the Dev and the Publisher. Kudos to the devs for building this and incorporating feedback. I have been trying Rogue Point for around 4 hours now. With all games, I test the game on: 1) keyboard/mouse, 2) Controllers (Ps5 and Xbox) wired to PC. I gauge FPS/shooter games based on how well balanced they are for Solos. (I play Solos v Squad mostly).
Most Crucial Feedback
Game balance for Solos: The final extract helo AI PvE is the killer for solos. I did not manage to extract successfully even once (I’m fairly skilled). Suggest that the devs consider: a) Either increasing the starting cash to bulk up on armour/meds/bullets; or b) Reducing AI PvE number for Solo players. This has already been noted by the Devs. This is a #1 priority to drive Player Engagement.
Server: I’m unable to find a squad on auto-fill to play games. I only got one game with 1 fellow player.
Game mechanics
Hat-tip to the map design and layout. Perhaps some visual cues may be added in game (compass color ping, or direction indicator) but are not a dealbreaker as the maps are fairly easy to remember.
Kudos to the visuals. I’m on a low-end GPU (2050 laptop gpu on a desktop rig) and was able to run the game with no lags, no latency/ping spike/game crash for the entire 4 hours duration. Bullet effects and headshots are rad!
Weapon progression is thankfully not linked to Extraction Consequence mechanics (failed exfil and you lose weapon/inventory).

Pistol gun balance: the pistol needs 8 headshots to kill a PvE. Give the beginners a buff, my dev mates, will you!

Some bugs:
Refill Ammo does nothing.
Dead-drop also does nothing.
When players join on Public games, I’m unable to add them as friends.
I’m on 3050* laptop gpu.

For your first point solo has issues with half the weapon in the game. I would recommend either the late game shotguns or the ARs. Extraction zones in general need a rebalance since they are balanced around 4 players. I have soloed around 4 runs and have found myself looking for weird spots to camp. Which the finale i just camp in the far wall in the pool that is next where the maintenance room is it makes it bearable.
Your second point the game has 170 players at the time of posting this. Most are either in premade squads or solo.
