The only thing I can remember from this lack-of-updates games is that Chucklefish intensifying his chuckles as he runs away with my money.

Don't ever touch early access, kids.

The original SSZ and Infinity looked pretty nice graphics wise. This so-called "Director's Cut" has upped textures... but at a steep cost: lack of shadows - which actually turns this down to looking like a mid-era PS3/XBox 360 game unfortunately. And well, that's what this company has built it from: the consoles.

Now the Born Ready is dead - it's devs moved to another project (who are shilling it on the discussion board) - shadows coming "soon" is no more. Apparently the graphics dev for it had quit the company in the summer.

You get all the DLC, including the Marauder which was promised to be exclusive to Kickstater backers (hah), but unfortunately these suits are unlocked deep into the game.

That being said, it's a decent game for three bucks. I want to go back to the original SSZ, but the gameplay in this version has been tweaked for the better. Difficulty was kinda gruesome in the original - that was fixed.

Can I recommend it? It's hard - but at the price of $19.99. ($3 are for the owners of the original SSZ) Definitely not. Lower than $10? Probably. But I definitely won't be supporting any of these hacks in their future endeavors.

Oh yeah, and they turned all Strike Suits into ducks.
Ef that.

Show me your wares please.

Edit: With the new 2.5 patch - it's been getting better. I can actually use my HOTAS Warthog joystick now! Compared to the bull that it was in 1.0. The joy of having your throttle device having a button that states "AUTOPILOT ENGAGE/DISENGAGE" and binding your autopilot ingame to that...

The game still needs tons of work - but it's been improving. The general feel of the X series is now there - but it still lacks good empire building... and multiple ships.

Still not recommended as of October. Let's see how 3.0 is.
