Disintegration Reviews
Disintegration is solid, but incredibly uninspired. The gravcycle and squad gameplay that defines it works when it’s allowed to, but it suffers due to slow pacing in single-player mode. Its multiplayer is also just that; serviceable.
Disintegration offers a mid-level gaming experience with poor story presentation below my expectations and unfulfilled gameplay of the RTS part of the game. The multiplayer part, which has a great potential, is spent due to the low number of customization options and low number of players.

With the multiplayer being DOA on PS4, at least, the game is left feeling oddly hallow at launch, but there’s enough campaign and replayability to hold the attention of players for 15-30 hours as you max out your squads level, abilities and track down each chapters secrets.
Disintegration held a lot of potential, and while its gravcycle is novel, the rest of the package doesn’t live up to the strategy it promises.
So, with its online multiplayer seemingly unable to get off the ground from the outset, Disintegration is only worth picking up at this point for its single-player campaign. With even that having its fair share of issues, however, it’s hard to recommended. There’s quite a bit to like, and the groundwork that has been laid would make for a great follow up with a better story and more strategic depth, but ultimately Disintegration feels like a hollow shell of what it could have been.
Unfortunately, Disintegration has not worked well in combining first-person shooter style with tactics and strategy.

Incorporating RTS-style unit management into a (somewhat) fast-paced first-person shooter seems like a jarring concept on paper, but V1 Interactive has delivered something that actually works quite well…on the surface
While some people will probably like Disintegration, it honestly doesn't have much going for it. It's a first-person shooter where you feel like that teammate that's there, but not really doing anything and a real-time strategy that is hard to control and doesn't give you very many options. Combine these with a story that relies on a cool premise to get past generic missions and you have an underwhelming experience. Online might be enough to save this long term or anyone looking for unique experience but for most people, you're probably going to just get frustrated.
There’s a lot of squandered potential in both this title and the franchise itself, and I hope that V1 Interactive is able to salvage this release in the weeks to come. Some much needed focus will greatly improve the package.
Disintegration's blend of FPS and RTS is an interesting one, but unfortunately it fails to fully deliver on both. It's a competent game and can be fun at times, but most of its mechanics fail to work in the simplest of ways. Maybe with a little, more time Disintegration could have been something special.
Studio founded by the co-creator of Halo brings an inventive squad shooter twist that doesn't quite hit the mark
Disintegration is built upon a fantastic concept and can be a blast at times, but there's always a frustrating issue or two around the corner that drags the experience down.
Disintegration is a unique game held back by oftentimes irritating and dull game design and a weak campaign. While practically everything about the world and gameplay is unlike anything I've played before, too little of it succeeds in being consistently enjoyable.
In an era where first person shooters continually push the envelope in terms of genre tropes, visuals and mechanics, Disintegration is a few years late and a few dollars short.
Issuing orders to your team is fun, but your movements are sluggish and the combat encounters are uninspired
Disintegration's single-player campaign has some novel ideas and its robot enemies die well, but it never achieves any tactical depth.
When combat is in full swing and every move you make is gold, Disintegration feels like an experience worth having. Unfortunately, some of the higher difficulties may fail to hold your interest as some missions can take quite a long time, and the combat can feel very repetitive, with encounters rehashing a lot of the same enemies and experiences.
Disintegration is a fresh concept that feels as though it was lost in time since the days of the OG Xbox but fails to stand out, especially with its multiplayer mode that simply isn't worth your time.
Disintegration has an interesting and innovative gameplay but it is not enough to support the whole weight of the game. It also has a repetitive campaign mode and a plot that goes nowhere. Online, which could be the most interesting mode, was born dead from the start. Still, a game to give a chance if we don't have something better to play

All in all, I’d say the multiplayer was fun and adds more unique gameplay elements the campaign was lacking. The only thing that holds Disintegration back is the lackluster story and repetitive combat. The game promises free and paid DLC content in the future, and hopefully that will improve the experience overall.
