I had my doubts that I would like this game (especially knowing it was a static map). However, this game is just different enough from Factorio to be interesting and it is gorgeous. The map is huge and I haven't felt like I ran out of places to explore. You can tell it's still in Beta, especially in multiplayer (lots of desyncs). But, it's still worth playing before release.

Edit: After another 100+ hours of game on another area of the map. My review still stands. Multiplayer is still buggy, the game is still engaging and gorgeous, and each content update brings a whole new level of gameplay and a new reason to start a new game.

Edit: After almost 600 hours total, I can say without a doubt this is my favorite factory game. Still buggy, but still being updated constantly. The unofficial modding community also adds a lot of flavor to the game!
