Long forgot about this game waiting for polish and updates. Checked back and see it's had nothing done for years so for anyone looking into it the game appears to be abandoned.

After I posted this the game had an update, lol. But I have not been able to check it out yet so not changing this yet.

I'm not super big into leaving reviews but I have enjoyed the game a ton and now that sony has pulled back on it's PSN account linking I think it's time to leave positive reviews to make up for those leaving negative ones for that reason and forgetting to change them.

I've decided to update my review to negative, like many other players. Initially, this game was an absolute blast—I enjoyed it immensely with friends. However, none of my friends play anymore, and even I've lost interest. The constant nerfs have drained the fun out of the game, leading to a frustrating experience where everyone ends up using the same gear, only for it to get nerfed again.

The chaotic fun that made this game special is gone. Instead of blanket nerfs, consider offering difficulty options where players can choose to lower weapon damage or raise enemy health in exchange for bonuses. This would allow people to pick out challenges rather than just nerfing everything.

Updating it back to recommended as I came back and found all the rebuffed weapons and changes to be a great, positive change to the game. I look forward to the next faction to drop in and fight a new set of enemies.

It's Rimworld it takes a while to get used to, fun game and good mod community. About time I made a short review gibing it the Emikol seal of approval.

I don't have a ton of playtime in this game as of this but I have been having a blast. I have not had this much fun playing a new game like this is ages and would recommend it for anyone that's bored and needs some goofy fun in their life.

While I have been enjoying the large scale of things there are many issues with the game such as a ton of game breaking bugs, lack of some content and a whole lot of things that can frustrate players.

I went into this not being a big Battlefield fan outside of playing BF1 so I don't have the same views as a lot of older series players. But at this moment I cannot recommend this game until they fix a large chunk of the issues. I have seen many on the list of 'to be fixed' so that's a good start. I look forward to a point I can change this review to recommended.

NTF's now and content was removed at it's release (voice lines)

Unless you plan to use the ash character model this DLC is not worth the buy as the perks for ash are about useless or hard to trigger the effects (Mettle of man) after it was nerfed into never being used.

Just got over 1k hours in the game and still play it on and off. It's like anything else competitive you'll have good games, bad games, lag games, horrible matchmaking, long wait times in lobbies with dedicated servers to play killer and balance issues. However if you can look past those happening now and then at it's core it's still a fun game once you get a feel for it and it's better played with friends than trying the solo adventure.

I can no longer in good will recommend this game in it's current state of patch 4.5.0 I actually don't mind the new UI or the animations that much though they are a bit 'clunky' and the camera drop with the character feels odd or annoying to me. The big issues with the game is the ranking system is garbage and has been for over a year, the survivor wait time in groups is super long due to what I imagine is a lack of people willing to play killer. (Killer wait times are very short so to me that means it must be an imbalance with no incentive to play killer and deal with most games being a SWF)

No one I know asked or wanted a UI or animation update but I get it things need to change over time to make the game better but I feel like this is not what they wanted. More so that it seems like killers can now lunge and hit people from super far away and while lag and other issues I've never found myself saying "wow that hit?" as much as I do right now.

Overall I'd avoid this game for now it's well know the devs of the game do not listen to player feedback.

Game has had a number of updates and fixes to a lot of issues however on a high skill level play it's still unbalanced.. Given I don't think there would ever be a way to balance it to a way that would make everyone happy for the upper hour/tier players such as myself. That being said I will not change my review to recommend the game to newer players there are just too many things to learn in this game to be considered 'good' at it. The game has come a long way from it's release in 2016 some good, lots of bad and some 'wtf why do that?' but in the end it's still fun to play with friends but don't bother if you're going to play it solo.

Game has had a ton of changes more or less for the better. Lots of balance issues are a thing and there are still issues but a game like this will always have balance issues. Be nice if like dbd mobile we got new modes and more cosmetics for stuff, unique or skin specific mori's are a good start.

Tribes Ascend was an awesome game. I was playing it long before it made it's way onto steam but sadly Hi-Rez has decided to quit updating it in favor of Smite as I assume they figured they can make more money off that game instead. Although this game was free to play or as some say "Pay 2 Win" I'd have to disagree with the later part as the game required a good bit of fps skill to play and someone that just bought all the equipment could still be stomped on by a more skilled player.

But with the game long out of date and less than 150 players active I'll have to sadly say I would not recommend trying it out now as you would have missed the "glory days"
