LOTS of shrilling fun! :D But can we have corn please? Like, actual corn to sell? So I can open up a store selling nothing but corn called "The CornHub"? :b

And seriously: Best Free game for alone or with friends.

It would be SUCH a great game if it wasn't for MICROSOFT. Yes, Microsoft who demand you to log in in order to play the game, just so that is super bugged and you can infact, not log in at all. Same issues like in FH4 back then. I feel sorry for all the dedicated devs at the Forza team, Playground and Turn 10. But this is literally unplaypable.

The most stable Bethesda game on release I have ever seen without any sarcasm or irony. A great infectious universe with great NPCs and factions. Top notch level design as we are used to from Bethesda, the online argument the "closed levels narrow the free exploration" seem to be misassumptions from how the game actually works in this regard - the levels are still massive in size and content that I have been surprised positively like never before.

Great Job, Beth!

Hm, I suppose it's alright?

As someone who's been playing the Pre-EA F1 games, F1 23 is actually not as bad as I expected! A lot of room for improvement is still there, though. Maybe they want to peek at Forza-Games regarding customization, and incorporate the rules & regulations of the FIA more to properly integrate them. Cannot be you get disqualified for a legal tyre-strategy :')

Graphics are alright, though they need to work on a common issue of pixelized particles and horrible blurs still.

It's not worth the 70€, in my opinion. Maybe get it when it's on sale. 50€ is a worthy price regarding all the licenses.

Very recommended if you like racing a little more Arcadey. Enjoyed it so much I even got it a second time here on Steam :)

It is so heartbreaking:

It took me MONTHS of patience to even get the game starting after the support never replied on any of the mails about issues with the game, despite having the hardware requirements fulfilled. Finally at the main menu the game even further showed so heavy stability issues I couldn't get any far, independent from all the settings. Trying through the entire year with 2 lockdowns due to COVID-19 heavily with community support didn't get the game running at all.

The fact I payed money for METRO: EXODUS, but getting no replies from the publisher in any form, not even automated bots, shows me that, apart from the story I looked up on YouTube gameplays, it has no worth for ANY recommendation AT ALL.

Never have seen any developer giving so much zero Fs about anything. 60€, or whatever it was, I could have spend much wiser and I'm afraid that DEEP SILVER as well as 4A GAMES won't see any purchases of myself for a long time after this.
A real shame.

Have you ever dreamed of building yourself the cars of your dreams? Then AUTOMATION is exactly your game!

GRAPHICS (21/25)
The big OSD-icons and the main-menu theme firstly seem like you have purchased one of these 2nd class games, but as soo as you get into the editor, you will be convinced otherwise! Great graphics and textures in different environments with flawless light settings give this game something to show off - eventhough some objects sometimes make your life hard.

SOUND (20/25)
Not much to report here, since it's basicly a tycoon game, but it has a songtrack and sounds for certain equipments and the true music in the ear usually is the roaring engine, when you test it. Only thing we wished was maybe a bit of environmental background sounds here and then.

GAMEPLAY (19/25)
If you have as much knowledge about cars like a cow of legging eggs, you will have a tough time to get into the game, but it also will teach you a lot of basic things. The "key"-bindings are simple since you only need your mouse basicly and once you understood what you need to do, it will provide fun as well. The game isn't that stable though, especially if you dare to download community-content, but that's excusable.

CONTENT (25/25)
The game has different modes and gets updated regularly and if the ingame objects and cars aren't enough already, which provides by the way tons, you still can go into the Steam Workshop and look for more! The best feature most people will already know, is the export of your car to BEAMNG DRIVE.

SUM: 85 / 100
A very good game that is worth it's money and proofs to have further potential!

When the slavic potato interNIET strikes again, or there is just for a few seconds nothing to do, the funny FALLOUT SHELTER is your savior! A game, which made me love it first point straight on as a fan of the Fallout Universe, eventhough it certainly has it's ups and downs like every game.

GRAPHICS: (24/25)
I find it difficult to value this term, since it's not meant to be a laborious and realistic thing. It's all in the adorable comic style of the Vault Boy and all the Vault Tec drawings in Fallout games, which is a very neat one. It just fits like a fist on the eye or an ass on a pot and is well designed for all platforms!

SOUND: (21/25)
The exhilarating music is gloriously fitting to Fallout and each room provides you with it's own environmental atmosphere like you actually stand in it. The guns provide different sounds, partially even from Fallout 4 / Fallout 76, eventhough I'm having sometimes weird cuts in a few action sounds like error-barking dogs and glitching gunshots.

GAMEPLAY: (22/25)
The game get's explained in all the details you need and the control is primitevly easy, so you don't have to strain too much about the game. Perfect for little opportunities where you wait on your comrades getting online - if you have any comrades at all - eventhough sometimes the hitboxes for picking items and dwellers is a bit buggy. In general it makes a lot of fun, eventhough I'd wish myself more features actually and more exciting quests. The game runs mostly without issue, unlike most people would expect from Bethesda.

CONTENT: (22/25)
Everything from Fallout 3 and Fallout 4 seems to be included into this game in terms of legendary dwellers, outfits, weapons and a bit of story as well. For Fallout fans, the créme de la créme (or however to write that) and the whole idea I think is very creative and extraordinary. The only thing that runs out is the motivation, when there's nothing to do anymore and you have to wait hours until dwellers come home from a raid or improve their skills.

SUM: 89/100
A result that speaks for itself - it ain't a main-game thing that you play the entire day, but for peaking into it here and then while doing other things, it's perfect! I love it and it's for free as well, soooo very communistic ;)

It's always difficult to review these kinda games, especially when they are in Early Access - a lot of things will change I assume, and a few also have to, unfortunately - but all in all: BEAMNG DRIVE shows a lot of potential!

GRAPHICS: (24/25)
The game looks amazing, the textures are stunning, the objects fit into the world, lightning and shadowing is realistic and also the colors are matching. No complaints at all! A very solid base to build on.

SOUND: (21/25)
Soundwise it's also a very good expierence and provides you on most maps the feeling of actually beeing there, eventhough in terms of environmental sounds there is still a bit more to go I think ;)

GAMEPLAY: (15/25)
Well, where should I start? Despite me upgrading my PC hardware on way higher standards the loading screens and the spawning take forever and the game crashes more often than No Man's Sky and Fallout 76 together. But since it's in Early Access this is excusable.
The actual problem is, that the game doesn't provide you with any explanations and you have to discover everything yourself, which is a bit sad. That not only demotivates and takes away the fun, but also let's the game feel very "empty" and I think that led to a lot of folkes not recommending it, because they are overwhelmed by all the actual game.

CONTENT: (15/25)
The game bores out fast, if you don't have AUTOMATION to import your own cars and test those. There are few game-modes, but the game feels empty and the player feels lonely, despite beeing able to spawn AIs, which's behaviour is really hard to programme. I don't know the properties of the game-engine but I can imagine user-competitions and championships in here, because the game offers a lot of potential (-> Multiplayer ?).

SUM: 75/100
Since it's in Early Access, we only can wait and see what happens further to BEAMNG DRIVE, which I think deserves attention but also more work into content and stability. Whenever it gets an actual release, I will be there and check on it again!
