I play WoW a lot and love the dungeon running all day as a healer, that is not possible in this game, you can only do 2-3 a day before the game stops you.

For a HEALER people saying "oh just do other content until you can do them again" is not an option i love healing dungeons with small groups for the challenge of it and can't do that in this game.

Sadly i'm level 31 and only found this out just now, had i known before hand i wouldn't have even bothered getting the game.

I hope this changes so people can run dungeons for FUN instead of being told "oh i'm sorry you have had too much fun go play another game for 24 hours until you can do dungeons again."

Will not be recommending this game until this has changed. Even tho i badly want to as the content has been fun until now.

LOVING this game,

At first i was worried when i heard they were doing districts instead of separate housing for like 10-20 people i was worried they were moving away from a survival game and more towards the social side of things however after playing my 5.1 hours so far i am impressed how they have managed to merge both survival and social problems in a new and interesting way that really fun to try and balance.
I haven't completed the game so far but i am loving it so far and can't wait to see how the game unlocks even further.
Well done makers of Frostpunk 2.

@ 8 hours in on the dot WOW i won't spoil anything but just WOW my mind was blown away as much as the biting cold, this game defo deserves an award for gameplay mechanics. LOVING IT!

@ 25.1 Hours in, well i stayed awake til 5am playing because i couldn't pull myself away, It's one of those games that just keeps adding more layers of goodness and getting better and better as time goes on. had to restart once because i was kicked out during a storm but other than that its been super fun. totally worth the price and i bought the delux edition !

@34.9 hours in, still loving the game having alot of fun with it and can't seem to put it down. i hope my review has helped someone buy the game as for me it has just been a fantastic ride.

I Was happily playing this game for many hours with friends and now just like no man sky Sony walks in with ill advised ideas about how gaming should be done, all the while stood back in agog of whats happening because they don't see a problem.

Absolutely ridiculous behaviour that has ruined a community of plays, if i could refund the game i would just to spite them as they have done to EVERYONE in the community.

Edit that have undone that terrible decision so they now get a positive.

LOVE this game, Seriously good game to play, I think the first time I played this game I was up to about 4 am before I noticed the time. everything from the electricity system to the research is well thought out and exciting. I enjoy starting again and trying out all the different ship designs i can come up with and the new content. 10/10

SOOOOOOOOOO much fun, I mean really plenty of endgame content plenty of content overall and they keep adding to it aswell, I would be happy buying the game at full price.

So i saw this game just as it patched V60.18 and i have to say it is amazing starts like a colony builder but grows into a city builder with all of the balancing and juggling you have to do in the game it is AWESOME, Coal is like diamonds in this game so it feels as most industry's use it in large quantity's so be aware of this and plan forward, There are graphs upon graphs in this game and all of them are useful to help you get what your colony needs so use them wisely. not all races like each other so be careful who you let in and oh yeah the tutorial atm isn't fantastic so until it is updated don't expect it to teach you everything, instead look at the beginner guides on youtube. oh and if you click your population tab then clock on the bar under food you will see EVEN MORE options including changing how much food they eat and in the equipment tab how many clothes they wear, both of which make them happy.

Not really a review as more of a tips line but still very good game oh and at current time i have put 94 hours into it in one week.

Still one of my all time Favourite games to play and each update makes the game not only different in a good way but ends up with me starting again just to try out everything new and fantastic, i can't wait for version 65 to come out.

606 hours in and it is the BEST Zombie apocalypse game i have ever played, Mega amounts of crafting options, from building water barrels to barricading windows and building stairs, by golly the mods are also awesome hundreds of mods that people have worked on to enhance the already amazing game play.

The only problem i can see is when the multiplayer is back me and my friends are going to have arguments over what mods to use and what ones should be banned because there too powerful.

Oh we play the game on stupid hard mode, zombie count is normal but after day 60 turns into INSANE, every bit of loot is on extremely rare making it so hard to find things you need. we use a mod called More Traits so we could start the game with injury's and a broken leg, just to make the beginning more interesting.

@ 136.1 hours in i highly recommend this game for single player and multiplayer, although it is in early access it is one of the better games i have seen that's still in progress as bugs are few and far between and the content takes at least 100 hours to complete unmodded. Mods are available in vast quantities and really do add to the game overall.

The only bug me and my friends found was whoever joins the host after about 2-4 hours tends to come out of sync with each other but can be fixed with a simple rehost of the game.

It's kinda of like Factorio with the complexcity of the game and what you have to do but with fantastic graphics, I can see that it is a game i will keep coming back to play for many years to come.

The game is in early access and I have played 188 hours at the time of this review.

I own and have played nearly 300 games on steam quite a few of those were in early access and I have to say that this is one of the best early access games I have played, Tools are given to the community to customize anything from how much health you get per level point put into health to how many resources you get from a tree you chop down basically making it so you can customise the game to be played the way YOU want to play it, you can have the game as an easy to live in city builder with nice looking dinos or with a mod here and there have the island be a hell hole where a level 1500 T-rex is a nightmare god of the dinosaurs who will one shot you.

I have a small server run on my own computer that me and my friends play on, building our empire across the land and collecting every dino we can see like were playing the adult version of pokemon. Although the game may be “ early access “ it’s more like a beta with new additions to the game being made on a regular basis the will literality make you go “ ooOOOoo “.

I’ve had a lot of fun and even if I could possibly get bored I could just add a few mods to the game and it is immediately and different animal and game changer.

Thank you to the Ark Survival Evolved team for making my time off work so enjoyable.
