Outpost: Infinity Siege

很失望

i really should stop buying abandonware ...

Recommended for people who want a FPS tower defense game, but it is a game that is half completed. You can see there's a lot of passion behind the game with all the cut scenes and attention to detail. But it's very clear they abandoned this game to go develop the sequel. Maybe it's for the best... But watch this space, if they decide to do a more complete job with Outpost 2 this is a series to watch out for.

Sadly this was not the game I hoped it would be. I was hoping to simply have a tower defense game where one would accumulate resources during battle and continue to upgrade the outpost during the pauses between waves or between stages. Instead, we got this piece of polished crap. Before knowing what the game was like, I was so excited to get this game because it looked like it was going to scratch all the itches I had. It looks beautiful, but it's execution is just lousy. Talk about bait and switch. There's so much boring, dull time spent gathering crap all over separate maps, that are separate from the outpost battle map, to bring them back to your base to build and upgrade your outpost. That's too slow, boring and tedious for me. I'll never buy a game early any more. I've done it handful of times and been burned almost every time. I'm going to let any new game cook for half a year before I buy them any more, because developers and publishers over promise and under deliver all to often any more. They do this either through showing you more bells and whistles during early game previews (I'm looking at you Watch Dogs - Ubisoft), or they show you such little of their game (like in this game's case), that you think you're sure what you're getting only to be totally lied to. I try to play a game to see if it will get better and push past the initial hurdles to get into the great bits, but sadly there were no great bits in this game, other than what was in your face from the start, pretty graphics. I spent too many hours (15.5 at the time of this writing) to be able to refund it. Now that this game has been all but abandoned, I warn people, stay away from it or really do your homework before deciding to get it and wait for it to go on sale. This one's a hard and sad NO for me.

Habe mir das Spiel vor ein paar tagen geholt, sehr günstig. heute ist mir aufgefallen dass es 2024 veröffentlicht wurde, was leider auch erklärt dass kein einziges MP game gefunden wird. es fehlt wie andere schon schreiben einiges, vorallem die ki der gegner...ist sehr lahm.... performancemäßig geht es zwar aber könnte doch noch updates gebraucht die wohl nicht mehr kommen... ich werde mal weiter machen bis es endgültig keinen spaß mehr macht...empfehlen kann man es so nicht

echt schlecht! Einführung in das Spiel ist absolut unzureichend, die Bauhinweise sind mangelhaft, Tranzportmöglichkeiten von Ressourcen usw fast nicht vorhanden oder zu tragende Teile einfach zu groß. Da kommen overpowered troops u du kannst mit deinen drei MGs nichts machen. Also Einführung fehlt irgendwie vollständig. U nur youtube schauen um was zu verstehen ist nicht die Lösung.

It has potential but doesn't quite live up to it ! The thing is, the idea is good, it's just not quite right : - Killing evil AI aliens doesn't have any impact, they just disapear without any sound, even shooting isn't that satisfying - The voice acting is bad - It might be me, but the UI is quite confusing, I'm not sure what to do - I felt quite limited in what I could do in my Outpost - I really didn't get the whole "exploration" phases, I feel like they should have focused a 100% on the Outpost part of the game instead of trying to add content to it Overall, I would'nt say it's bad, but it's far from what it could be. I would gladly try it aging if an Outpost 2 comes out ! :-)
