Trying to fill FTL's shoes is too big a task. It's not as good a game. I've just devoured it whole, though, and enjoyed it on its own merits.
The entire concept of a convoy is exactly what you described... vulnerable high value targets protected by low value but heavily armed guards. When attacking a convoy the goal isn't to kill the guards it is to kill the high value target. In World War 2 when a convoy was attacked the success of the attack wasn't measured in how many destroyers were sunk but how many cargo ships and tons of materials were destroyed.
Honestly, I feel that this game requires as much - if not more - skill than FTL. You have to micromanage your movements to place your cars strategically in order to defend your MCV -and- avoid crashing or getting directly hit with missiles.
@pyropie Star Wars KOTORII has gotten just as many updates recently. It should be Early Access by your logic, yet it came out... how many years ago? The devs added content and then fixed a few bugs that leaked through. The same thing happens to ALL games. You're just looking to nitpick and even the people on your side disagree with your points.
FTL is entirely luck-based. You have good luck, you win, you have bad luck, you lose. Skill affects this very little.
I even enjoyed the palpable irony of fanboys criticizing your comparisons to FTL and "bias" while not observing their own bias and failure to acknowledge the fact that the game description itself sparked the FTL comparisons.
@pyropie, your "logic" notwithstanding, if the game is clearly unfinished, it should have been left in Early Access and they should have worked on it for another few months.
Releasing an Early Access game to official circulation with a ton of bugs in it is a count against it, not a count in its favour.
The EA label warns people to expect issues while an official release should have those issues largely taken care of.
Prematurely pulling said warning label is a betrayal of consumer confidence which wil generate some negative reviews.
You are simply going to have to deal with that fact.
I wont bother checking out this game till its on a serious sale.
And if a game is painful for the first couple of hours, THATS A PROBLEM.
Once you stop being 15 you really cant deal with games that are a slog unless they are rewarding,
If you disagree, great. But for me and the gaming community the whole thing has just felt like a large case of "buyer beware."
