Should I buy this?

[Bubs]

It looks interesting, but I don't want another Carrier Command Gaea Mission if ya know what I'm sayin.

What's it like?

[Τhe Rolling Cheese Wheel]

Just look at the forum, the current consensus is a solid no.

[Skeletor]

definately a resounding NO. This game has no performance optimization and even if your pc meets the spec, odds on the game will just stutter and jar and run at 1 - 2 FPS which is unplayable garbage.

Try the free demo.
It's a good game. Latest patches improved the performance a lot.

[Marek Rosa]

Yeah, you can try the demo and make your own opinion http://www.minerwars.com/Downloads.aspx

This game is a simplistic space shooter. You can't build anything, there is no Trading Hub and all you do is vendor junk and (otherwise functionless) ore to an automated vending machine. This game doesn't even come close to the developer hype and deserves to be pulled from the Steam Store.

The flak is so bad the developers even did a forum lock as damage limitation!

As I posted on the MW official forums:


"Awesome idea. Failed execution.

It seems there are so many bugs with this game, I can't even be bothered to report them all.
I regret having spent money on an unfinished product such as this.
Anyone out there thinking to buy this game, wait for atleast 6 months.

As a graphic designer & video game developer I have an advice for you guys:
please have some sort of production standards/quality control established before releasing anything..."

[Sabberschlonz]

Da Bubs is asking to buy the game or not.
Well, some people have troubles with the game, others not
I like it, because I had no problems and I dont care about the DRM.
And as everybody who wants to see, you can see that they are fixing bugs neary every day, so its getting better .... if you have some problems.
Dont forget, this is a small company and deserves some credits ....
What I really, really dont like about games is, if they have the &/(//&% Games for Windows live, thats a real ç%&/() ....

Go on, get it and have fun

If you do end up buying it, I will await your post of disappointment.

@cheese: And the rest of people won't await your trolling posts, because their are all over the place, all the time.

Hey cheese guy, what is up with you?
I guess you are just a single person in the pile of brainless people on the internet who dont have the brain capabillity of handleing this game and its functionallity. Also you should mind that its a game in a BETA STATE, wich means its not finished.
Also I havent had any problems myself with the demo of the game with my 16 GB of RAM in my computer, so if you got 16 GB of RAM, then buy this game.

Dumbest thing I've read all day.

If the game is indeed in beta, then the store page should indicate that it is, the current store page does not indicate that this game is in beta.

I play games that will make your head explode, ever heard of uplink and A.I. war? Yeah you probably haven't seeing how you play casual civilization V and this rubbish called Miner Wars 2081.

[evstream]

It's not BETA.
It has a BETA branch with experimental features, same as many other games.
Both the production branch and the Beta branch by now work fine and with fine performance, after many patches.
Even on a system with so little as 3 (three) Gb RAM as mine.

Hey your demo crashed out on me. I changed the high to normal in demo and was able to play. Game looks good.
