Early Access Review
Was stalking a base owned by these 4 guys, hiding by their entrance observing their comings and goings. At last I decide to go for it and as one of them exits the front door I try to run inside. But I am too late and he manages to close the door in front of me. A frantic gunfight ensues. Both of us in a panic we manage to empty several magazines at point-blank range with our fully automatic rifles before I barely manage to kill him dead. As he is waiting to respawn he says softly over voicechat "You are so dead..."
I run back to my base to prepare for the assault and before long they besiege me, build some fortifications close to my entrance and take turns potshotting me through my windows. After a while of this they return home, no doubt planning further actions. A day goes by and I log in again only to find my base has been the victim of a failed c4 raid where they managed to blow up my stairs, barring their further progress into my magnificent fortress. From my roof I see their second attempt; a skybridge from which they were hoping to hop onto my unprotected roof. This too failed, but their skybridge is still there and it goes all the way up to my property line. I build my own skybridge over to it, jump on it, parkour my way on top of their walls and through unbelievable luck find a way into the center of their base.
I take EVERYTHING: carparts, refined ores, guns, 10 drills and more. I open every door to the fortress, which I now own, and I leave a single drill running at the very top of their base. The server will wipe in 1 day, so now I'm logging in every once in a while just to see if they have noticed my incursion yet.
This was pure satisfaction. Truly, the best thing in life is to crush your enemies and see them driven before you.

Pros:
- Resource gathering is pretty decent. Most things will not require an inordinate time investment to procure, but it still feels like an achievement when I upgrade my gear or expand my base.
- I like the stylized graphics a lot, and it runs smoothly even on my non-game laptop.
- Weather is fine. I've managed to hide from players in dust-storms more than once.
- Simple yet rewarding crafting system.
- Potentially thrilling encounter every time you run into another player. Slowly backing away with your gun trained on someone you ran into in the desert is fun because it feels like a genuinely risky situation.
- Addictive gameplay.

Cons:
- Not enough content, but new content is apparently getting added quite frequently.
- Official servers are laggy.
- Resources spawn at fixed locations. If you live in a certain area, you will more than likely find yourself traversing the same old route again and again because you know where resources spawn.
- On laggy servers resources take time to load, this is perhaps my biggest annoyance so far.
- Raiding is very difficult because c4 takes a long time to get and it is very easy to build a base which would require a lot of c4 to breach, making raiding almost impossible against allmost all decent bases.
