Avoided playing this game up until recently; but friends convinced me to try it.

As a background I put nearly 5000hrs into bc2, bf3/4, and 1.

Pros:
Graphics are good
Gunplay is alright
Decent amount of content

Cons:
Classes are neutered
UI is horrible
A battlepass in BF... Really
Game Balancing


Getting depressed knowing how good BF used to be.

At the monent we as gamers are just gettng into the games that are coming from last years e3. With all of the time waiting for those AAA games, i had the time to play some other games on the market. These games on steams were mainly early acsess games that were being worked on and attempting to show some promiss.

What we have here is one of the most creative games that i belive has hit the market in a long time. as a matter of fact i cant belive that no one have done this yet. This game is called space engineers and with the 33 hours i have put into this game from when i got it ...... i got to say it is refreshing.

Survival Mode- at the begining of this mode you can chose to set of a situation such as a crashed ship or a lone platform and all the way to being just you and the astroids. Just like other games with survival your tast is very simple just mine rocks and ore to build yourself a base or even your very own ship. Building is what this game is based of, making the best base with the best defence and offense. And just like ship building it is also up to you what your ship looks like and if it is better for mining or fending off other people and astroids showers.

Creative- Unlike survival this mode is fun for messing around in with friend, like building ships that are all weapons and attacking each other like a bunch of luniticks. This mode is also good for making up designs for survival making sure that they work to your exact standerds.

Physics- Just like space there is no gravity. Be carefull and use it to your advantage.

Graphics- Great for the most part, some textures look a little fuzzy up close but good for the most part.

Bugs- Only bug i can think of that i have seen was my monitor going black for a few seconds when moving fast. other than that they are no major bugs.

What i think need to be added in the future- Bigger Worlds, Enemies, Random Ship crashes (rare), Food and Water System, Air System for enclosed areas, Areas you can remove your suit, Faster weilding, and lastly this one may be outher but what about having huge servers with large amounts of space for everybody and also posibly having explorable planets. (i relize that last one may be out there, but hey its an idea)

Overall Score (1 being worst) (10 being best)
Gameplay 8/10
Graphics 9/10
Gamemodes 7/10
Physics 10/10 Overall Score 8.5/10

(All of this is my personal opinion)

All i need to say about this game is that if you are willing to play hours and hours of it then make sure you prepare for some strong "Feels" and moments that make you want to throw you computer out the window. That being said this game is quite great for a Alpha, due to the fact that in my time i only managed to see on bug and that is one were a player dies and there body twerks as if they were taken over by Miley Cyrus. Now lets get into what the game is really about, Rust is a surviaval game mixed with many features like base building and crafting . While playing Rust i got a huge vibe that this game was made by the shadows of Minecraft and Dayz, which is a good thing because both are popular and have a huge fan base. Another feature are the many guns that the game has that are all craftable with blueprints that are found in many places such as boxes and zombies. Due to the fact that there are guns you should asume that there will be players shooting other players and there is no better immersion than someone with the best gear shooting at you with all of you, and with all of yoiur loot you want to get to safety, but at the same time bring a sad ending to you hunters life and taking there loot. One side not is that the game is very easy to learn the curves and if you ever run into someone you still have the chance to shoot them due to the fact that guns behave like no other game and it is imposible to have 100% accuracy, but i would tell you to say friendly but it is your choice :). Now lets get to the pros and cons.

Pros
-Immersion
-Base Building
-Addicting Gameplay
-The felling of "Just one more Hour"

Cons
- Some bugs (points not taken away due to Alpha)
- No way to protect new spawns because they have a rock and others have assult rifles

Score 85/100 (can't wait to see what this game brings)
