Is the game boring to anyone else?
The gameplay loop is boring me. same missions. same weapons. progression is painfully slow. been playing all day. hasnt really been fun. if i could upgrade my guns or get faster reload or something, then maybe. however, it might just not be for me.

I don't blame you for your opinion, I just don't agree with you.

I'd say it's all sorts of things, including broken, but boring was not one of the words. But we all have our opinions, bless you.

i disagree on basically every criticism you have but the game is pretty one dimensional and youve seen it all by this point. if youre not impressed, refund while you can
the game is fun. all 10 people who have successfully played it hold this opinion.

I find the game loop to be ok, But everything else is boring:
- all armor sets are copy-pasted, heavy/medium is not working at all
- guns are unbalanced: only 1 viable option the rest is trash that requires 2K+ medals to unlock
- upgrades are lazily done: collect 100 same items in the same looking places to reduce orbital strikes cooldown by 10%
- no variety in enemies, if you played each race at lvl 7+ difficulty - you have seen all enemies this game has to offer

Imagine if the progression was faster. There's not much to unlock to begin with and you'd be even more bored after you quickly unlocked everything.

Do you play with other people and friends? That's what the game is all about and what makes it so fun to play

imagine guns were balanced/ armor was working and not copy-pasted - people would get satisfaction and not dissapointment from unlocking stuff

really the game isnt being played unless y0u are at max difficulty and stressing ab0ut every single acti0n y0u are taking

the fine line between a h0rrible death and winning s0 hard it l00ks like y0u are in a m0vie is what captures me

the well layered mechanics ar0und acti0ns like the fl0aty aiming 0r interacting with 0bjectives add a layer 0f authenticity that n0t a l0t 0f 0ther games pr0vide

y0u feel like y0u are in a real space war but realistically war isnt all that variable

find where y0ur enemies are massing 0r making weap0ns and destr0y them all

the game and its 0bjectives are difficult en0ugh t0 keep s0me0ne like me dr0pping 0ver and 0ver again because it just "feels g00d" t0 0verc0me these 0bstacles again and again

Nah. I never get tired of calling in explosive air strikes. Especially when a large group of enemies go BOOM.

Hello I'm a big gamer and I feel the same way with this game, I played for 19+ hours on this game and so far everything I play I get borde more and more. I played many games but never lose interestelar fast. I play with friends, we demolish the monsters and exfil fast but the rewards and customization is so low and I would love some attachments, I would like some skins for guns. The game for me is a meh.

I somewhat agree, though not for any of the listed reasons in this thread. I spent thousands of hours playing the original because I adored seeing myself improve with each game. By the end having become so knowledgeable about the enemy ai that I could use it to my advantage to dominate even the highest of difficulties with nothing but a pistol.

It's quite empowering to know that you can hold your own without having to rely on any stratagems.

With the release of the sequel, and from currently having invested a hundred hours in it, it seems that a lot of the badassery comes from relying on meta stratagsm builds, or running away all the time. With a lot of emphasis on coop, you'll find your biggest chance to survive is to stick with your team and coordinate with them to take out threats preemptively.

That's fine, it's a good game to be played with friends. I was just more so hoping for more opportunities to shine on your own out in the field. Though the game is still being updated, so maybe with time we'll start becoming less reliant on stratagems and have them be more convinience-based rather than a necessity.
Yes, I don’t know how this game is as popular as it is. To me it’s painfully boring and feels utterly pointless.
