Standoff 2 Reviews

by Tbkayal

I recently downloaded a mobile game called "Standoff 2" and it was a complete disaster. The game promised intense first-person shooter action, but it failed to deliver on every level. First of all, the graphics were terrible. The characters and environments looked like they were from a game made in the early 2000s. The controls were clunky and unresponsive, making it difficult to even aim and shoot accurately. The gameplay itself was boring and repetitive. It felt like I was just doing the same thing over and over again, with no real sense of progression or accomplishment. The weapons were also unbalanced, with some being overpowered and others being completely useless. To make matters worse, the game was full of bugs and glitches. I experienced frequent crashes and freezes, which made it impossible to play for more than a few minutes at a time. The matchmaking system was also terrible, often pairing me with players who were either way too good or way too bad. Overall, Standoff 2 was a huge disappointment. The game had so much potential, but it fell short in every aspect. I would not recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and engaging first-person shooter game on mobile.

The game is pretty amazing I only have a few complaints not enough updates to guns, maps, skins, and game modes. The gameplay is really good I just wish they had it so you didn’t slow down when you got shot I feel like that kinda ruined the game a little because you can’t get out of bad situations anymore and it’s more whoever hits a shot first wins. Also snipers are kinda to over powered when it comes to no scopes like I shouldn’t be hitting 90 percent of my no scopes at any range idk also degal needs and tec 9 both need a little buff I find that I end up choosing the starter pistol more often or the p350 over them. Audio is another issue sometimes I can hear people from across the map and sometimes I can’t hear them when there on the other side of the wall (I know slow walking cancels noise but that’s now what I’m talking about)OHHHH and the ranked system is horrible there needs to be some major changes to it because if I go against someone one rank lower then I can’t lose a single round and I don’t even know what rank they are but I shouldn’t be punished for going against them and get all my mmr stolen and it shouldn’t go round by round either it should just be whatever team wins or loses yk they could make it if you win against a higher ranking team you gain more but you shouldn’t lose more for losing

Honestly I like the game and the gunplay is satisfying and rewarding to get good at but the game has very obvious problems. Every game you get into there is going to be an insanely good player who always uses the ak/M4 and rarely the awm. It doesn’t matter the game mode or the map. I often find myself get into the supposedly casual tdm game mode and then quickly have my fun ruined because a group of ak pub stompers is spawn trapping. Spawn trapping is far to easy to do and don’t even get me started on arcade mode spawns(I’ve literally spawned in the same spot as an enemy at the same time). Defuse mode is fun but it gets stressful especially when you lose the first round because anything that isn’t an assault rifle is basically useless unless you get the drop on the enemy. Smgs are so useless in fact I am so used to not using them so I put a shot into someone’s head and then turn away thinking the fight is over just to be punished and see that I only dealt 80 damage. Another reason smgs are unreliable is because I often find myself shooting at some one a decent distance away and I put 6 shots into them just for them to get a lucky headshot with an ak/M4 and after all those shots I dealt 60 damage while they dealt 119. In the end the game is fun but the balancing isn’t the greatest and it basically cuts the content in half because you can’t have fun using other weapons because they’re out classed.

The game could’ve been one of my favorite mobile game, but it got a lot of optimization bugs, for example it can lag and sometimes people will see you 2 seconds before you see them, also the game doesn’t run smooth, another example I can play PUBG with max graphics and it would never lag it would always run smooth and never have reconnects issue, same goes with codm, so the problem is the game not my internet. I also understand that the other companies are bigger and have better tools. The other problem is the rank even tho the answer to have rank matches is to switch regions, but I know that my region have enough people to have rank matches, the problem is that the game won’t match up, I’m on the eastern US server and I know more than 20 people that try to play rank at the same time in that region, but it just won’t match up. Also switching region is a disadvantage since the game doesn’t run smooth.

Please fix this error, whenever a competitive match has been found whether it’s competitive or allies there are times when everyone votes but then the timer still counts down and then it stays at 0. When i relog into the game it keeps saying i have reconnection issues and i should reconnect to the game even though there was no game. Also, theres a bug where I don’t get my level up reward after a match, and other times I get nothing at all even after being the mvp of arms race or finishing it, in which you always get a “well played.” This reward system bug happened twice now and has yet to be fixed. Also fix the box rarities, it is essentially impossible to even get anything better than a rare or epic (which getting epics is already almost impossible and rares are one in 40 boxes). Its understandable you want to earn revenue from your game but having a 90% common drop 9% uncommon and the rest 1% for the boxes is irritating for many free to play players.

To be honest this is one of the best FPS game. The graphics are great. Even though I see glitches and bugs within the game it runs smooth. Ok here are some bugs and glitches, sometimes I see glitches in the walls and automatically get kicked out. Watching ads to earn C coins is also a bug sometimes you don't get your c coins I have to rewatch ads 1-2 and I'm not an ad person. The wallbang. It’s ok to have some wallbang (shooting through walls) sometimes it can get annoying. Because you can get shoot and don't know how. In some maps you can get shoot through the wooden walls. It gets annoying after. but other than that, I love the new maps. After games, it can be a rip-off. For example, you can do 60-70 kills and get a well-played: 10 C coins. But other than this I love the game. I like how when you die it shows you where you died so you won't think people are hacking or shows. I love the new skins and new maps! And I love the new weapons it’s well made! I hope you can fix the bugs and glitches. (sorry for my bad grammar lol)

While an otherwise good game, one flaw I’ve found is the reward system. After complete info a match, you are rewarded with an amount of silver, which can be used to buy crates, to open and get skins. However, this system is broken, as only the top performers will be guaranteed silver, and otherwise you can get silver after a match with luck, or by leveling up. Except even if you’re the top performer, you aren’t guaranteed the biggest amount of silver. You can spend 10 minutes in a game, be top of the leaderboard, and only get 5 silver, when you need 100 for a crate. Only other problem is connectivity issue, you can full buy in a round, lose connection for half a second and then you get to spectate for the round, for example.

The game is fun but it has to things to work on, first there is like know way to get a knife if you don’t pay for the game, it’s not a pay to win but you can get good skins only if you pay, even from the pass you can’t get goof stuff, and second the matchmaking, I am so tired of getting put into a team of straight bots that can’t play at all and play against people that play like every day, like I played a game right before this and I got 23 kills and my other teammates literally got like 3 kills and 23 kills each not even joking, like they die every round and it’s makes it so hard to enjoy the game, but over all like the game like the graphics and the maps but just a tip, if you could make a map almost the same as dust 2 from CsGO that would be big.

So I have been playing this game for almost 2 years now, I have collected many rare skins and I have finally got a rare sticker. I have thousands of kills and I think I am really good at the game. But I logged in today to find that I have been banned... it did not tell me why it just said I was banned. Now after seeing this I was furious that all of my data is now gone, the. I began to wonder why I was banned, then I remembered my last game, I was doing a sniper only challenge and got 60 kills, I think some poor sport reported me for cheating. I can’t believe that stand odd 2 would just ban me without any evidence of me cheating(I did not cheat I swear) . I would like for them to give me my account back because I have dedicated countless hours to this game.

this game is really really fun! I play it competitively and it’s a really good competitive shooter on mobile but I wish there were some things added. This game really needs bigger and more maps. I feel like especially on sandstone, the minute I start the round it just turns into a death match server. There is no strategy at all. They need to make more maps and make them bigger with more places to go. This would make the game really competitive and allow for awesome Strategies. 2. I wish we had more guns/ equipment in the game. I feel like we need more rifles and pistols. We only have 3 rifles for both sides and I feel like the game would be better and the buying would be more diverse if we had 1 or 2 guns for both sides. 3. Weapon tuning. PLZ NERF THE FS AND THE TEC9 AND THE SHOTGUNS. THEY DO WAY TOO MUCH DAMAGE FOR PISTOLS AND THE SHOTGUNS HAVE INFINITE RANGE. PLZ NERF.

This game when you take the time to set up, has a really great control interface which I find rare in a lot of shooter games. It’s also not loaded with adds and I find the crate openings to be kinda fun. Matchmaking is quick and rewards a decent amount of XP. My only real concern is gun bloom. Even when doing a burst it is very difficult to keep control of the recoil. And even when your crosshairs on on the target the bullets don’t follow. My last problem with this game is no matter how many kills you get you can never get more than 30 coins and it doesn’t even seem based on kills which has me very confused and makes me take the game less seriously. Overall it’s a very fun game to play and can even be used as a 5 minute player since loading in this game is very fast and there’s no penalty for leaving a match

Quite a good game for mobile phones. The graphics are quite good even at medium settings, and at high settings they are absolutely gorgeous. Of course there are many more advantages. But there are also a lot of disadvantages. For example, it seems that there are problems with blocking accounts that have cheated. There are too many mistakes in blocking innocent users. Also, some part of the community spoils the entire impression of the game. We should at least block obscene language and so on. Of course, I understand that this is all difficult and you yourself must see these problems, and most likely are trying to solve them. :)

This is hands down the best game on mobile the graphics are awesome the skins are cool and the physics are great but the guns are... unbalanced. Sometimes I think the only reason people play terrorists is to us the AK-47. People abuse the gun for being inaccurate (which can give you an easy headshot) the gun has an extremely high damage output and a really fast reload. What im trying to say is nerf the ak. But if you don’t get this review then use the m16 to counter the weapon or just play terrorists. Other guns feel great but im gonna talk about guns that need buffs, the FAL would be a great gun if the reload didn’t take the earths revolution around the sun. the MP5 feels like a .22 instead of a 9MM and the fabM didn’t even make it through testing doing less damage then the m1014. What im saying is great game, guns need some fixing

by Ravager0999

Game is solid. I always get hit with two major bugs that are very annoying. At times the game audio is completely cut for the entire session I play. The audio only plays if I am actively holding my volume button, and even then it is choppy. Second bug is an infinite queue time that I can’t cancel. This bug lasts a few hours and does not stop. I do not get placed into a match no matter what. I tried switching modes and back to the mode I wanted to queue in but nothing changes. Worst part is I have to restart the game every time only to get hit with these bugs consistently. I tried everything from changing networks to updating my ingame settings but still no change.

Ik your going for the CSGo type of game and stuff, but my whole reason for playing shooter games are mostly for the character and gun customization. I think is cool to have your own character in their own type of look in like a rank like system. So when another play sees some one with a certain skin they’ll think “oh hes a old player” or “oh he got that skin from ranking up with this gun” to make the Skins fit the game better i think it would be a good idea to have like the Police side of Skins where theres certain police or FBI Outfits and Certain Terrorist side customization where they all keep the looks of those who are terrorist and stuff

Ok I love this game been here since year 2 but I have one major issue with the pass and competitive. My issue is I will sit here in que for almost an hour straight and still not get into a competitive mode. I’m sitting at gold 3 and can’t even play cause there’s just no lobbies or something cause I’m sitting here losing daily challenges or even uncompleted weekly challenges because I just can’t get in a game for competitive. The allies is fine I love that mode. But please what do I do I try other regions and still nothing and I’m tired of waiting hours just to play one game and not even get close to my challenge done it’s almost not worth it anymore cause I’m just wasting money on the pass. Please do something idk what just something this wait time is ridiculous. Besides all this I absolutely love this game one of the few games I get excited to hop on when I get home keep up the great work developers!

Ever since Critical Ops screwed up their game this has been the better game. One thing I really enjoy is the trade system and how you don’t have to sell an organ to buy 1 good skin. I can’t ignore that the balance of some guns are pretty bad like how all the ARs that can ADS have zero recoil, great ttk, and short reload time but almost every other gun is just worse overall. Even the deagle which is a pistol has a longer reload than these guns. The LMG is def annoying aswell. All of the ADS weapons need some nerfs except for snipers. Deagle needs a reload speed buff. I do have a lot of fun playing this game but for some reason I can’t seem to find any servers with people who speak English. Everyone speaks Russian or Spanish even tho I’m choosing US servers. Do they actually work or no? These are the only things holding it back from 5 stars for me. COD guns in a CS clone and language barriers. Other than these thing right here the game is very fun with very little lag unlike critical ops where it’s just lag simulator. Thanks for the game

I seriously don’t know how this game doesn’t get big attention like codm or pubgm , even though it’s not a battle royale game it’s really good for a shooter. The fact that it also makes me feel like i’m playing CSGO on my phone is what actually makes me rate this game a 5 , not only that but to the skins and the different maps even with the different gloves and knives and the amazing details you encounter throughout the game. I used to be a heavy standoff fan when the first standoff came out and it was a third person shooter only , That game was a little bit more funnier than this one but it def doesn’t hold up to the new and improved things you guys got going on , I spent $$$ on this game also because I really enjoy playing it. You don’t have to but it’s good for trying to get knives . I still don’t have one but soon i’ll have that mf 😂💙!

Helo nice job yet I was wonderingly if u could add more events like the critical ops cuz they have pretty good events but I like stand off more so I only play critical ops for events I think that’s what lacking in stand off I’m not saying it’s bad it’s good but more?ik ik ik don’t eat me I was just saying and btw nice job pretty sick game amazing skins guns map perfecto after the last update uh idk if it’s a big or what I changed my hud but after ending of that map I choose and wait after I joined the ct my hud turned into default for no reason after I got shocked I turned it back to my style after than again :l uhhh can u plz read and answer me cuz I did nothing between or reset to default tell me why I rly like to know why is it happening btw can’t wait for new season 😉p.s FOR ANYONE WHO IS READING MY BOREING COMMENT DOWNLOAD THIS GAME NOW

This game is amazing, a true mobile alternative to counter strike.
At first I was looking for another free time waster and found this game,”just another garbage mobile game full of ads” I thought. I was impressed, this game has virtually no ads, a full skin market, polished and balanced maps, and fun gameplay. There are some server connection issues and other minor bugs but for the most part I feel these can be easily fixed with tweaks and patches. If you enjoy CS or would to play it but don’t have access to a desktop, Standoff 2 is a great mobile counterpart. I especially love the the skins market, the fact that you don’t have to spend any money to start trading skins is amazing. You get free “boxes” for leveling up and you can buy boxes with coins you get for free at the end of every match. You CAN buy gold with money but it is unnecessary to get skins. I have enjoyed playing this game and I really hope you do too.

by MoistRooster

this game is great if you are looking for a skill based fps with good team based gameplay and good graphics. needed changes are some of the guns need buffs, because they cant compete with guns like the ak or m4. the guns i feel need a buff are the ump, mp5, mp7. pretty much all of the smgs. it would make the distinction of the guns more noticeable. another thing needing to be fixed is the ranked matchmaking. i could be sitting in queue for upwards to 10 mins and not find a game. or if i do by the time the game loads after sitting on a loading screen for several minutes there are not enough players because some people left. overall i feel the game is great but some changes could make it even better

Standoff creators; I really enjoy the game, I also think it is a great game to learn because it is pretty easy to learn the controls once you get used to it. Please take my thoughts and issues (listed below) to help make the game better and better! Hope the information helps other!! I highly recommend this game because it is easy to learn, is a FPS game, you will always be challenged by a different player in the game. (Creator of Standoff 2 I think a lot of people enjoyed the “interception” game mode, I had now issue finding a match for that. I start matchmaking and instantly it put me in a full match. So with that being said I was wondering if it was possible your team could put interception back into the game for a while?) I played this game mode a lot when you guys had “interception” in the game.

I rated you guys a 5 star earlier, but I am considering taking it down after trying to get into a RANKED MATCH. I waited 7:15 minutes for a singular game, and I had to cancel it was taking so long. I was just trying to play my calibration matches, but that is physically impossible considering the fact that I can’t even get into ONE SINGULAR MATCH. This game in general is good overall, but this one “small” slip-up is affecting the game overall. I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one with this issue, but I am one of the people who will tell you about this problem. If this gets fixed, I will rate you 5 stars again. For now though, I rate you guys a 2. It’s really sad to see such a beautiful game be ruined by a small mistake.

I’m desperately waiting for a counter strike mobile game. I play only one other like this. But this one has some crazy good response... wish the competitive was a little less toxic. But I understand the defensiveness. One of the few games I’m incredibly good at.. I feel confident I guess. If your a CSGO fan you’ll love this game it’s smooth controls are great but the 120 FPS could use work because the aim still feels like it’s on a pixel grid rather than smooth aim. Could be connection could be aim but my ping is 30+ average. Shows 119fps. Could use an in game report rather than discord report. Shouldn’t be hard to institute a file check after a suspicious amount of reports in a short amount of time.

I’m a counter strike player at heart and I’m not BSing anyone when I say it truly embodies cs’s intentions and game play. It’s a bit fast paced but I have a knack for mobile shooters and think this one is by far the best. You can get cases and skins without having to buy the coins with money but instead of ranking up in gameplay which is very nice to me who doesn’t want to spend cash on a mobile game. Lastly, the game doesn’t have a high percentage of competitive games so I’ve only been able to play one so far and I can’t get my rank, however, casual mode is still exciting and I get a lot of enjoyment playing this game. I can’t wait to see what they do in the next seasons!

by JawBIade

Hi, I haven’t made much reviews of any game pretty much but I’ve had standoff for almost 4 years already almost consistently I’ve been off for a while but I’m gonna start coming back. I mostly didn’t play bc I have a smaller phone now but I liked the game since I’ve downloaded it in 2020 and I got really at the game too. I’m really competitive this game also got me to learn of to play with three fingers which is like crazy good to up your skills on shooting game. Thanks for the game. There are some hackers but not crazy. Some people don’t even speak English but it’s find and pretty much after each game everyone says gg and you can also trash talk and do 1v1’s. Pretty fun game

by Tictac 999996

1 - The competitive when starting To play as a new player in truth this game Scares away new players who want to play Competitive Games take a long time to find they should remove the system of 10 games to have a range.
Also the ugly thing is that if in competitive a person does not enter the game They will take everyone out and it's time to play another game More That is very boring and scares people sometimes I close the game for that, they should do, if one player is missing Connect another like that It will not be necessary to restart and wait A lot

2- It's a very good game but I feel that Nobody or very few know the existence of this Game This game needs ADVERTISING ATTRACT NEW PEOPLE

by 4kwin

This game is amazing probably in my top five favorite mobile games it is definitely a nice change from college duty mobile which is also an amazing game him there are weapons that I would like to be added into the game but I’m not saying that the game is bad without them maybe you could add like a revolver maybe I mean that wouldn’t actually be a bad idea and kind of just more variety for the pistols because this is because all the pistols are kind of the same just like different sound effects but this game is completely amazing in my opinion five out of five stars it’s amazing I love it it’s fine it’s competitive but another thing that I would like to change is is that you can level up faster because I’ve been trying to get to rank five and it’s been taking me forever

by Shpicii

It’s an absolutely amazing game! I’ve been playing more than 800 hours but theres not everything good tho, FIRST the hitmarkers! They should be removed and replaced with blood cuz even if you hit the enemy most of the time it says “0 damage given”. SECOND, the 0.16 update, why make the m60 so accurate, all the kids use it on TDM and it’s annoying they just spray! Why decrease the TDM and ARCADE time?
I hope in the next update theres gonna me a lot more like: ADDING Trade so you can trade with you friends, please Standoff instead of making the game better you are just ruining it!

by A Wise Cat

Pretty cool game. I used to play this game in 2020 and it was very hard for me now Its not. I would give this game a six star if this game had these features:
1. Health regen. You don’t need to kill all the enemies when your health is at 2% for example. 2. Lower the gun damage. When a gun bullet hits you it’s a little too powerful and the health bar goes down too fast so why not lower the damage? 3. A hologram grenade. By using this grenade it will fool/trick the enemy that it’s you, when the gun bullet hits the hologram enemy it does ZERO damage and it does not collide with the hologram. The hologram should look like a terrorist holding an AKR on the T side and the hologram should look like a counter terrorist holding and M4A4 when on ct side. Thank.
