I love the idea of this to death but in order to get an even acceptable ending you have to go through a process of secret hunting and passcode entering so tedious sounding that I can't even bear the thought of getting through to the end

A work of postmodern ironic genius

This series was getting gradually better until this absolute garbage fire of a game hit the store. The story is nonsensical, every character is stilted and frustrating in ways far beyond the prior entries in this series, and good lord, the game is completely BROKEN. We have had to restart multiple times due to players losing control of their characters in walking sections, or the camera, or both. We have had cutscenes not play and characters disappeared, and in the greatest sin of all for a game like this, we've had characters die *due* to bugs. This was a very, very easy game for Supermassive to at least do acceptably, and this is not their first time doing multiplayer games, but for this to be the most broken disaster of them all is an extraordinary feat.

Roomerang is love, Roomerang is life

As is to be expected from a Frontier game, this is simply not good enough for a licensed product and not good enough for any price point, let alone what it's being sold for. Tyre management is fundamentally broken, with the game making up temperature stats on the spot to fit its scripted narrative. Financial management is nonexistent (another Frontier staple), as the poorest team on the grid I can afford literally any facility upgrade and driver I could ever want. To call the AI "AI" would be to give it too much credit - it is pre-determined and scripted. Frontier bragged about getting real driver radio voice lines, a superfluous feature that nobody asked for, and still botched it, you'll hear every line a driver has in two races, and some of them are just incorrect. Development time was spent on this instead of the simulation, which was instead made up at the last minute under the guise of potentially being able to fool the gullible for half a season. You fooled me again, Frontier! Hopefully for the last time.

Ultimate gigalatifi simulator

Firaxis find new incredible ways to break their game every single month, and are content on their final update being shockingly crash-filled with AI that was completely broken by *one line of code*, causing them to prioritise science so much that they neglect everything else in the empire. Kind of pathetic

Brilliant local multiplayer game. This deserves a lot more attention than it's getting

I, too, have misgivings about this game's price, as do many others, and I don't really feel like I need to go into detail. But it's counteracted by the fact that, in my opinion, this game is a modern multiplayer *masterpiece*.
