Didn't hear about this game until today, but it looks really cool! Full game's not out yet but there's a demo up which I plan to try out with some friends when they're available.

According to some reports on ProtonDB it works great on Linux too, which is good news for me.

What's your first impressions?

It was ok. It felt like it needed something. The basic ship was clunky feeling to fly and the weapons felt mediocre. The enemies didn't feel fun to fight either. But it was fun with my friends. But I think that was spending time with them more than the game was. I walked away from the game not disliking it, but not having any particular interest in playing any more of it.

Fair. Tried it and ai hear you. Not the same level as darktide but I'd say it's still pretty fun

Yeah I was playing with my buddies and it was really fun piloting and our duct tape ship

Edit oressed send too early: but yeah we were tying to get into the closed betas with no luck

Dog fighting could be improved but I’m assuming that’s cus we only have access to the starter ship. You can dodge snipers if you ascend or descend then go in the opposite way while rolling, and the lock on if they’re infront of you if you roll and boost past them so they go over you, then boost forward the outrun then

Oh nice, demo holds up then?

[–] FlihpFlorp@lemm.ee 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

From what we’ve played yeah. It’s got a few problems here and there but that’s why it’s a beta

[–] _hovi_@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Nice, excited to try it

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Added to my wishlist, thanks :)

From the videos I've seen I'm interested Unfortunately I'm only on XBSX so I'll have to keep my fingers crossed that they bring it to consoles. They said that they are going to buy will be day and date or later on?

[–] _hovi_@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Not sure about console releases, cross play would be sick tho

[–] Tolstoy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

On the official website there is a link to the Xbox store... So yeah

[–] MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.social 1 points 2 weeks ago

That's good to hear. Hopefully the demo makes it to consoles as well.
