First Sony threatened to kill the game, we fought back but as the game is still blocked in 177 contries and we never got the cape AH promised us, we lost this battle.

Next AH balancing philosophy was: nerf everything players use to force players to use other weapons, we fought back and the CEO stepped down to give us an update with no nerfs and it made the game fun again, we won this battle.

Next AH attempted to re-nerf most of our armory, the community quickly reminded them of the consiquenses of that action, and AH then buffed and tweaked nearly everything over the next 60 days. We won this battle.

we are 2-1, the game is good now and dare i say, more fun than ever, but we must not fall into complacentsy, the ever-watchfull eyes of the community will keep AH in check.

Don't play it yet. the game shows promise but it desperately needs more content and a few tweaks.
ok so with my limited playtime take this review with a grain of salt.
the iron sights are nigh impossible to use, it could just be my inability to hold a virtual firearm straight but the bullets seemed to spawn from an odd angle on the weapon making it curve upwards to the right, just enough to offset iron sights but wouldnt be noticed otherwise.

the detection for grabbing and placing barricades needs work, you need the perfect angle to grab or place them but its always towards the centre of the object, boards should be grabbable on the entire object, and placing should detect if your aiming at the top or bottom placeable location not just the centre, also why cant i smack the zombie with the board?

weapons have no collision, the zombie should not be able to walk right through the barrel of a rifle, either push it aside or push it back towards you, or make it act as a solid wall because holding a zombie hostage at the end of a sniper barrel would be funny.

zombies can sometimes spawn inside you if your in a small room (it happened twice while i was in the snipers room in the pub), this is a problem for obvious reasons.

Why are zombies allowed to climb sheer walls? why cant i climb anything? why don't hordes trip when getting pushed up stairs? why can't i close or open doors on rooms i can already enter? why do zombies always spawn close to you once you've "started the horde"? whats the point of a sniper if the zombies always spawn close to you? why can't i hit zombies with my fists or any object other than melee weapons and kicks?
its the small details that matter, add enough details on solid core mechanics and a game will thrive, bonus if you don't say all the small details you add, rewarding curiosity with small details keeps players coming back for more.

now i must mention the combat is pretty good if you don't use iron sights, the map is decently big (but since zombies spawn close to you you'll never see it all unless you deliberately explore), the controls are easy to understand and use, monthly updates are always a good sign.

all in all its got a ways to go but its got the potential to get it there, it's worth buying to support the devs but id wait a few months before playing.

Have you ever wanted to try fencing or just mess around with swords? if so this game is for you.
Have you ever wanted to throw fireballs or lightning from your hands? if so this game is for you.
Have you ever wanted to parkour around a medieval fortress? if so this game is for you.
Is all of the above weapons/ magic/ activities to basic for you? if so try out some of the mods,
want 300 more weapons? want to visit places from games or movies in 3D? do you want to become a jedi? or maybe you want to shoot some peasants or knights with a glock? well guess what there's mods that let those dreams become vertuality for you to experience.

ok, now for the catch 22, prepare for your pc to either: catch fire, explode, crash, freeze (not literally), scream in pain and or have many more side effects if it does not have better than average components.

Overall i would say this is without a doubt one of the best VR games out there, definitely worth full price.

Personal notes and comments:
One of The best spaceship builder games out there, ive played this game since version 0.13.0 (for reference this was before it came to steam and can be considered the "open alpha") which is a long time, however this game does take alot of time to play, but if you want to build your dream spaceship and combat enemy spaceships i highly recommend getting it, its also extremely fun to play with friends roving the galaxy as a fleet or going battle royale style.
oh and theres mining too, being able to build your ship from nothing but raw resources you mine and smelt is a truly satisfying feeling, or you could just build a massive storage/mining ship and clear a system for an easy 4-5 million credits (note that mining does take a while so it might be easy but its not fast).

overall if you've got a few days to burn and you want a good space builder i would grab this because you will get your money's worth and maybe more, I personally play alone (forever alone guy here...) but the few times i played with a couple of strangers who convinced me to join them i genuinely had an amazing time (and i wish they didnt drop off the face of the planet those 100+ days ago...).

So get out there captain, discover the stars, build the greatest spaceship you can imagine and Conquer the Galaxy!
