Stars Reach

lol!

Having alot of fun!

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ (3/5 Stars - Jetzt kaufen und in der Zukunft Spielspaß haben) Kurz gesagt: Stars Reach ist kein fertig poliertes Spiel; es ist ein Meisterwerk-Konzept in Spielform. Die Ambitionen und die Kernmechaniken sind unfassbar gut – der Aufbau der Welt, die Physik und das soziale System sind bahnbrechend. Aktuell ist es ein riesiger roher Diamant, der dringend poliert werden muss, aber sein Potenzial rechtfertigt den Kauf. 🛠️ Aktuelle Mängel (Was fehlt noch) Aufgrund des enormen Ambitionsumfangs gibt es aktuell einige Mängel, an die der Entwicklung arbeiten muss: - Inventar-Chaos: Das Ressourcenmanagement ist derzeit ein Albtraum. Ein grundlegendes Überarbeiten der Rohstofflagerung ist dringend nötig. (mit "merge all" hat man schon direkt reagiert, aber da fehlt noch mehr beim Ressourcenmanagement) -Fehlende Leitplanken: Das Spiel setzt zu viel Vorwissen voraus. Die Einarbeitung neuer Systeme oder des Lernens der Regeln sollte durch besseres In-Game-Guidance unterstützt werden. Ich habe vieles erst durch Try & Error und mühsames fummeln herausgefunden. - Technische Optimierung: Insbesondere das Kampfsystem wirkt noch zu roh. Man merkt an manchen Stellen, dass das Backend und Gameplay noch Optimierung braucht. (im jetzigen Zustand ist es okay, aber nicht perfekt) 🌟 Die Meilensteine (Was dieses Spiel einzigartig macht) Diese Punkte heben Stars Reach - für mich - von jedem anderen Game des Genres ab: - Persistent World: Das Beste an Stars Reach ist die echte, nicht instanziierte Welt. Das Gefühl, in einer gemeinsamen, belebten Welt mit anderen Spielern zu existieren, ist für mich das größte. - Homesteads (Grundstücke) & Gemeinschaft: Die Verwaltung von Homesteads fördert echte Gruppen-Kollaboration und gibt dem Spieler ein emotionales Ankergefühl, das in vielen modernen MMOs fehlt. - Umwelt-Realismus: Die Kombination aus terraformierbaren Planeten und realistischer Physik (wie das Zusammenbrechen von Sand oder das gezielte Graben nach Erz) ist phänomenal immersiv und macht das Entdecken einzigartig. - Die Vision: Selbst die geplanten Systeme wie das politische System zeigen, dass das Spiel im obersten Liga spielt (will). 🚀 Fazit und Kaufempfehlung Man spürt die enormen Meilensteine, die hier gesetzt werden. Es ist ein Spiel mit einer unfassbaren Vision. Ich gebe daher trotz der aktuellen Mängel ein großes Daumen hoch. Man muss dieses Spiel unterstützen, damit diese bahnbrechende Mechanik nicht untergeht. Es ist keine Kaufempfehlung für ein perfektes Spielerlebnis, sondern eine Investition in eine tolle Zukunft.

I don't know what part of "Early" people don't understand about Early Access. It's not a finished product. I realize many developers use it as a way to dump a trash product on the market to make a quick buck, but that is not what these devs are doing. They are already addressing performance issues. Until you get some big numbers of players hammering your servers, you can't really know what is going to happen, and Steam helps with that big time in Early Access. The days of waiting years and years for a "finished" mmorpg are all but over with. Most game companies are not willing to take the risk. That leaves it up to indie devs to fill that gap. All the spoiled brats that do nothing but try to review bomb everything because they didn't get enough hugs as children make my tush tired. I have a significant investment in this game. Yep, I put my money into something I thought would eventually be good. I did so knowing the risks. The $30 for EA is a teeny tiny drop in the bucket compared to what kickstarters provided. We aren't gullible. We aren't stupid. We know the risks. We just wear grown up pants and invest in things that we think could be fun. I wish people would grow up, but unfortunately, it seems that way too many people 40 and under just refuse to mature.

Despite the 0 day bugs, dev team has been relentless in squashing bugs quickly and at the same time fixing features to allow continued player progress. Excited to see how this accelerated patch schedule continues to fix things and update systems. Personally have had no issues since playing for 8 hours.

I would not advise purchasing the game unless you are fully aware of the status of the current version of the game. If you just want to support a unique game's development go for it. It was not ready to be in EA but it appears they were running out of options, I am not a fan of the lowest priced option being 30$ due to the expectations people will have for paying that much. The game is still in alpha status and has a lot of work to be done. That being said they have been adding content as fast as they can and the concept of the game is one of a kind, they have taken a lot of risks to try and provide something that is not another cookie cutter MMO, it will provide physics that no MMO has ever attempted and social mechanics that make working with strangers beneficial for both people involved. Advanced crafting where the same tool can be made with a variety of different materials and have different stats. And a lot of skills with no rigid class systems among many other features. I am rooting for this game and its vision.

Hello to all of you out there. I have been a backer for this game through KS and a fan of Raph Koster since original UO. To date in the EA version I have 37 hours into the game play and I am having a blast. I realize there are a lot of negative comments and people have a right to feel frustrated, but with that said, we need to be aware that EA games often have bugs and server issues. That while it can lead to frustration and a potential urge to rage quit, you may be missing out on an opportunity of a life time. Some of the games this genius has had a part in, left imprints that cannot be satisfied by other games. Ultima Online and Star Wars Galaxies are one such reason I continue to play in the EA. I can honestly say in my 40 years of online game play, some of the features in this game are reminiscent of some of the great old games. Where communities come together with shared purpose and a love for adventure. So while you are waiting for the bug fixes, or the releases you are looking for then go find yourself a good group, share laughter at some of the silly things that happen with the bugs (I mean come on, spawning in as a pile of stick, to funny) and have a measure of patience. Oh and take screenshots, if you don't have them if never happened. *grins* This game I believe will fill out beautifully, explore, meet people, dive for cover when storms hit and don't try to pet the tigers. I hope to see you all in game! Oh and don't forget to say hi to the Horizon Initiative and stay safe out there!

Ok. I'll cut to the chase. Even though this is early access, its more akin to an early beta/ late alpha. That being said, the vision for this game is fantastic and it does shine through the moment you start participating in the game as part of a community. Which makes sense for what the developers of this game have envisioned. An entirely community driven sci fi MMO. If you want a taste of the vision that the developers (whom I may add have been extremely transparent and responsive to the community) have for this game, $30 is not a bad price tag to get in early, make your mark, help out the developers, and support the remainder of the polish and development of this game. Again, I reiterate, this game currently is FAR more enjoyable with a community working towards a goal. However, if you are looking for a full fleshed out game loop and the ability to grind and progress akin to a traditional modern MMO, then $30 may be better spent elsewhere.
