Early Access Review
Robocraft: Build, Drive, Fight.
Robocraft is an early access game where you build your own robots in your garage.
You will build your insane robot, test it and eventually fight with it in battles.
I've played this game for a while, and at some point they changed the whole tier-system.. which is in my opinion both interesting as well as kind of sad.
Basically you would start with your white blocks which were the lowest ranking of all blocks, you earned tech points which you could use to unlock other kinds of blocks, they changed it so you unlock blocks by leveling - which is great.
They also changed the block types, so that the main blocks are all the same rank but can be colored. Which wasn't possible before, because for example a orange block had a different ranking compared to a red block.
This made building quite interesting compared to today - where you have to place blocks in a different way to reinforce them against stronger robots.

Even though at first I thought it was a stupid thing, I do - these days - still like to play Robocraft, and I adapted to the new system.

So that's the history I got to tell you..
In general Robocraft is an amazing game.

- Building robots and improving them is a really fun part of the game, and eventually when you enter a battle (the waiting time is really short most times) you will feel great when you are able to destroy every other robot in your way.
There are different builds popular from time to time, so one week you see a lot of flyers and you can make a AA-robot, the other week they are building something completely different!

- The battles are interesting as well, you can choose between team deathmatch, the Pit (which is FFA), and Battle Mode.
There is also a ranked mode, but the game mode is the same as Battle Mode - but it's called Battle Arena.

- There is a variety of weapons you can use, for example - SMG's, Rail cannons, Plasma cannons, Medic guns, Aeroflaks, Missle launchers. - and the last two have been added recently, so I am expecting more to come.

However, even though the game has it's cool features there are also some things they need to improve..
I will name some of the things I think need to improve, and I found someone on the internet who uses the username WinterDryad who also started a topic about this some time ago.
I will copy some of hes ideas:

Game Chat: True, Robocraft has many alternative chats, but it is also a fast paced game and you don’t really have the chance when game finishes to say to your enemy “hey you were really good, want to play next one together?”.
Post game lobby is really needed… and maybe starting the game with a generic interface that includes a big communication panel instead of the garage is a good idea too.


I totally agree with this guy, there is a great way to impove the game by adding a post game lobby/chat.
This way, people can interact with each other. For example I could compliment someone because they have a really cool robot, or congratulate the enemy team for winning.
Currently (16/02/2016) this is not possible yet, which is sad. I would really love to see this changed.

Party: It would also be really nice if it would be possible for players to queue up with friends, for example being able to have a team with you and your friends instead of just a few (you need premium for extra slots).

Votekick: Would also be a really nice feature to get rid of annoying players who ruin your game.

Even though there are things Robocraft developers at Freejam need to work on, I think its a really nice game already, because keep in mind guys: it's still an early access game. So they are still working on it and inventing stuff.

I really do recommend this game for everybody who likes to invent their own robot and fight with it!

The best simulation game ever!

I played this game before it came on Steam, and I really love it!
So I tought I should make a review because people need to know the hard truth about this game.

First of all, let's take a look at the graphics..
The game looks like some kind of a cartoon, which makes it really cool.
I shouldn't have done it in any other way, it just made so unique.

Than we got the possibilities.
This game has an enormous amount of modifications you can add to your game, by easily dragging into a folder..
With the mods your game get so much more intresting to play, with a million possibilities.
Even without modifications the game is still amazing to play, with many things to discover.
There is even a multiplayer modification which, of course, makes it posible to play together with friends, or just random people, and it's soo cool!

The developers of the game are amazing too, they listen to their players and add suggestions to the game.
Or sometimes add stuff to the game that has been inspired by amazing modifications.

You can easily play this game the whole day without noticing the time flying, every time your ship crashes you are challenged to make a ship that actually can fly to the moon, and if it doesn't work you try again, and again and you guessed it AGAIN!
Some people maybe think this is annoying but I think it's a good side of the game, instead of beating the game easily, you are challenged every time, in this way to get more into the game and learn more and more about real life space missions.

You even got different things to do, you can do training missions or other kind of missions.
You can start a carreer, play in sandbox-mode or even play in science mode, which makes it possible to both do research on planets for science points, and make ships using all the parts u want without unlocking them.

You can go to soo many different planets, which are made so cool.
They all got things like drag and stuff based on real planets, however some are changed a bit because it's still a game.
For example, taking of at Kerbin - Earth requires you to have a ship with quite some power, while taking off at the Moon is much easier because of the gravity.

There probably are some bad sides of the game, but I actually didn't discover those yet.
However if you are using modifications they may sometimes don't work quite well together and sometimes make your game suddenly crash. - But this isn't the fault of the developers so don't blame them.

If you want to see someone else's perspective of the game you should check out some other reviews, but my advice is to really buy this game if you like the things you see.
I would also recommend to watch some gameplays on YouTube, and maybe if you want you should search the internet for Kerbal Space Program Mods to see what kind of modifications you could add to your game when you bought it.

I will definitly keep playing this game for a long time and if I needed to give this game a mark, it would absolutly get a 10/10!

"Arma 3, definitely one of the best games I've ever played!"

Next to the game "Assassins Creed III" is "Arma 3" truly one of the best games I've ever played, and it is definitely worth the money!
It has a lot of features and a huge amount of possibility's.
I've played it for almost 70.0 hours now, and I only played in the editor for now, I didn't even started the campaign yet.

First I thought that there whould be a huge difference between Arma 2 and Arma 3, but besides the grahpics (which are amazing) and the campaign, the game is almost the same as it's previous version.
However the makers of Arma 3 did a great job by improving all the gameplay experiences and possibility's,

Some changes between Arma 2 and Arma 3:
- Customise your weapons.
- Customise your player, like changing clothes and more.
- Submarine and swimming underwater/diving suits.
- Amazing improved graphics.

But there are also some dissapointing things,
In Arma 3 I really missed some airplanes and ships.
However, I'm using some modifications right now like the "USS Nimitz" and the "F/A-18 Super Hornet".
Those modifications really make the game more than perfect.

A game like Arma 3 for just €44,99,- is just amazing, and will never be a waste of money, and time.
It really one of the best games ever made, and you won't have much problems while playing.

10/10, AMAZING GAME!
