When Premiere pro is tweaking, this usually works better with older or more obscure formats and works flawlessly for basic editing.

Avoid this game like the plague.

It hasn't been a year since the release of MW2 and they are already planning new ways to charge full price for yet another unfinished and soulless game. Despite the flaws of MW 2019 it was actually a solid game and worthwhile experience. I had a lot of fun playing Search and Destroy with my friends and revisiting some of the classic maps I haven't played on in years. It seemed that Call of Duty was getting a competent reboot, with a decent map pool and an upgraded engine, however every proceeding release seemed to ♥♥♥♥ the bed. I was really hoping Infinity Ward would pull through for the series yet again, but MW2 has proven to be a massive disappointment; from its terrible map design, unfinished tacked on gamemodes, horrible weapon balancing, and downright broken matchmaking system this game is simply unenjoyable. MW2 is a massive step backwards from MW 2019, and the responsible parties are going to charge the community full price for a "new" game rather than committing to fixing the game that people purchased less than a year ago.

It's really pathetic and disappointing to see all the parties involved devolving back to shiesty behaviors that stigmatized this series to begin with. Literally all anybody wants is a decent Call of Duty that has a clear direction and at least two to three years of a solid experience they can share with their friends.

My expectations were low, but holy ♥♥♥♥ did I get ripped off lol.

Yes, but the community is extremely cringey and lame. Be ready for people arguing about trans ♥♥♥♥ in the chat and getting kicked from official servers for actually playing the objective.

Marauders takes place in some WW2 inspired dystopian future. The gear and weapons are all inspired by the 1940's European front, so many of the weapons at the players disposal are Stens, Mp40's, Thompsons, and various iconic weapons from that time period. The characters and environments are largely analog inspired science fiction; drawing influence from the likes of Star Wars and Alien. What the game lacks in lore it makes up for in its atmospheric environments. The locations themselves tell a story.

The raids begin with players navigating their spaceships around asteroid infested colonies. They load onto these large space colonies in search of valuable loot and in the promise of completing trader missions. Players will be blasting prisoners, raiders, security forces, SAS special forces, and other players in order to score and survive. Each raid is set with a time limit players have to escape and in order to keep any of the loot you find you must successfully extract. You can load into raids with up to four of your friends and the party will load onto the party leaders ship. Players have unlimited "Rustbucket" ships, but there are a few different classes of ships and weaponry to load them up with. You complete trader missions in order to unlock upgrades to your ships, weapons, gear, and cosmetics. There are four factions that will sell the player different loot. There is a simple crafting system in which players can scrap weapons and equipment for parts that are used for crafting recipes. There is a leveling system that the player will need to excel in order to unlock more recipes and cosmetics. Once you cap out your rank, you can prestige your account, which resets your character to zero but nets the player special tokens they can only acquire by resetting.

The game-play is very similar to Escape From Tarkov, but it is a much more casual experience. Many of the mechanics from EFT are present, but much of the micromanaging aspects are not. Admittedly, there is a certain layer of depth missing currently from the game. These systems in my opinion are "good enough"; the game does a lot of things, but it does not excel in anyone area. The weapon mechanics are basic, the health management system is basic, the inventory management is basic, the AI is basic, and the trading system is basic. This can actually lend itself favorably to the game though, as it doesn't take long at all to get somewhat established, and even with a pistol you are a massive threat to geared players. I believe that these systems don't need an overhaul, but just some basic polishing. I believe the developers ought to focus primarily on loading the game up with content. The game-play loop is very fun, the maps are fun to navigate, and the mechanics are easy to pick up. A simple recipe that can actually lead to hours of fun.

Overall, I do recommend Marauders, however I will admit that for $30 there is a substantial lack of content. There is always a risk involved in investing in Early Access games, but if you are looking for a looter shooter that is easy to pick up and casually play, this game is definitely what you are looking for. I find that EFT has such a large skill curve and skill ceiling that many people, including myself, do not have a lot time for. This definitely scratches that itch.

Beat it on Uber difficulty, it was very fun and worth the 6 dollars I paid.

Does the game feel gimicky and at times uninspired?
Yes.
Are there blatant flaws?
Yes.
Is it often times repetative?
Sure.
Though the following above may be true, I still reccomend on one condition: you are a fan of the graphic novel. As a game this is an obvious cash grab and I can't reccomend to someone looking for an "Arkham Knigt" experience. To those who have read the graphic novel I without a doubt reccomend this. The fan service of seeing Knight Owl and Rorschach work together to beat the ♥♥♥♥ out of the top-knotts, mercs, and cops alone is engaging. The cutscenes are done a style that resembles the graphic novel and the events of this game take place before that of the novel. So if you've been wanting to witness the duo work together before the forcibly retire, I say pick it up.

It's good, buy it.

Silly indie game done right. This game is stupid but it sure is a good time with friends to just mess around on and shoot up some zombie swine.

Addictive little arcade game. Galaga with extra steps. It's a good time, give a shot.
