Since this is still in development there are some game-breaking bugs (server just stopping, lag spikes, map not updating etc), and some huge problems for new players entering a world run by others (host quitting, joining during winter or joining a long time after others; no flint! etc). But the FUN factor of this game is tremendous - trying to survive with strangers or friends. It catches the fun exploration and survival feel of the single player game and just adds tons of nice interactions with other players. Definitively gonna be a great game in the end! Get it!

By the way: for completely new players it might be handy to play some single player first because it is gonna be harsh to survive with other players and not knowing how to pitch in... Also, use the wiki online to know your recipes!
