    Insane. This was one of those games that I thought will stay in EA forever. How long has it been, like 12 years?

        Or to bump up the price by twenty bucks. And it still won’t be finished, either - stuff like the story and bandits will come in future updates after 1.0.

    Feel like this is one of those games that’s super fun but flawed to a point you can’t fix it. Like the last time I played without any cheesy strats, I found myself not wanting to build anymore because the exploders would destroy everything so building a base was pointless.

    We’d just find a random gas station or something and just remove any way the dudes could climb up. It’s fun for a bit but after a while you’re just shooting fish in a barrel.

      Doesnt help that the combat is unresponsive and janky as fuck anyway, so playing without cheese is an excercise of frustration.

    Alpha to Bet…Full release! Yeah that’s exactly how development goes! I played it 8 ish years ago and have like 600 hours in it. I still follow the release changelogs it and played it here and there but it’s still 100% in Alpha. I feel they ran or are running out of money and by releasing it and increasing price will let them get free advertisement and therefore sales. Is it a bad game? No, just needs tons more work.

    This game has been in Early Access so long it’s lost all meaning. Good for the devs, I guess, to continue to put time and energy into the game for so long.

    Lol, comments off on the youtube video…cowards.

    I have hundreds of hours into this game, but man did this dev team wear me down and out. The constant, huge game changing development is the reason this has taken over 10 years to get to this point. Someone needed a bit better of exploration in their direction when they started.

    Oh wow. I remember a friend being into this forever ago. Had no idea it was still in early access. That’s nuts!

    I wish they would bring back the game settings that gave us the major customizations.

    I remember spending my last free summer playing this. Was 2016 and joined a server and even became mod. It’s been 7 years now, finally leaving the EA lol
