Rebel Galaxy Outlaw Crap

[Ankido]

The fact it's not on steam really irks me. It's one of the worse games I've played. The game is on SUPER HARD right off the bat. You are pinned against 5 pirate ships every single time while you sit in a crap space garbage ship. It's nothing but constant death with minimum money profit. It's full of frustration and bad mechanics. You will find yourself lost in first person mode, and confused in 3rd. It's not a game that is meant for space RPG or what the hell they call it. It should be a rogue like. I wish I could get my money back. Rebel Galaxy hands down out shines Outlaw. It's like they downgraded their game.

So you are completely unbiased then.

I have to disagree with Ankido. RGO is massively a better game than the first game is. I'm not sure how Ankido is having such a hard time, is he taking on missions that are to much for the garbage truck? Stick with mild/low missions till you can upgrade to a better ship. But then again, if he is some how getting himself lost in first/third person, then that is a much bigger issue and is probably why he is dying.

Sorry, but this seems more like not a game design issue, but a player issue, simply put this is not the kind of game for Ankido unless he is willing to learn to play this kind of game.

The first decent response in this thread, thank you Eisberg.

For those of us who are on the fence for buying RGO, I would expect to see better responses from those who have played it. And if Ankido has a response to your post, I would enjoy reading more as to why it sucks.

There is no replay value hence the price of the game. Rebel Galaxy was good but I expected better and bigger. You start off in a truck and it's headache after headache. Mining is boring and it's all a rehash of Rebel Galaxy without the naval combat. Space is my thing and RGO has 0% replay value. If there was replay value to the game, it would be $59.95. After so much hair pulling and countless hours of boring mining I finally got everything I needed. The story is lame and the game is done without being done. Great graphics and sound and the game play is so so. I expected more.

The space combat is fun. Really fun.
I love to boost and turn of the dampers and drift past those big CAP ships shooting off their
missile launchers and cannons.

I love the freedom of going place to place answered distress calls and picking up valuable cargo and saving traders.

I like taking out the pirate lords in a huge battles around a station with lases and missiles flying everywhere.

I love that its not super easy and you actually need to learn flying and battle tactics.

OH and did I mention the best space combat since.. those old school space games of the past.

The biggest thing about RGO (based on what I've heard) that irks me is the lack of ships. Coming from Rebel Galaxy, which had, if memory serves, around 15-20 ships, to RGO with under 10, just feels lackluster. I think I remember reading somewhere on Twitter that Double-Damage was looking into adding more to fix that issue, but as of right now I'm probably doing to just continue waiting out the year-long exclusivity deal and see if it improves by the time it comes to Steam, or by the time it hits Console.

and how many of those ships did you use?

People forget that most of the ships in games are minor boosts.. so people would jump ahead several ships at a time using a fraction of the ships that were available.

It's like in EVE where you used the first hauler till you trained up to the last one in the line, same with frigates... ooh we got six types of frigates but I'm going to use the starter till I can fly this one.

[WillieSea]

To chime in for how many ships did I use in RG? Very few.
But the point is, I used ships other people skipped because of how they play the game is different than how I play the game. And those people used ships I skipped because they liked them better.

So I feel the point is, more ships means more people can play the game the way they want, rather than being pigeon holed into a certain ship.

He is an obvious troll end of story he was never going to get any decent replies to that post. The fact he got one is a lot more than he deserves.

A troll because he does not share your views on the game?

Being on the fence, I saw the replies as being trolls to a personal argument as to why the game was not very good yet. If people can't reply to a post with a proper reply, then why reply at all. It certainly does not help the discussion.

After I replied, I did see some responses from people who have played the game and liked it. I take the positive and negative and weight those arguments against which way I will go.

[ULTRA]

Lol at the perverts still defending RGO, go make out with Tim Sweeney and get off Steam

[Nats]

This whole Steam forum is just full of filth no wonder people are going over the Epic
