Don't, it have only 3 maps, 3 missions with a boss, it doesn't have enough to play more them a few hours, also, it is all made in Unreal 5, using most pre-made asserts and without any optimization
If you get more than just a few hours, you have been lollygagging. when it ended? I was just shocked that it was already over.... tiny bit of confusion and then shock It just isn't worth the time or money. And those are the only two measurements I use for anything Personally? This is a beta level game so far. What this game should have been, can be? Yea... it feels like this is a beta.
@@Falcon0BR But by the time it comes to steam they've had time to add more and bugfix - and if they haven't that's them done. The only thing I like about Epic - other people paying for my improved game 😁
It should really be a point of pride for splat how efficiently he can convey whether or not a game is right for you anyone who wouldnt be interested dosnt have to watch more than the intro to know it. Truely a sign of a skilled communicator that cares about not wasting his communities time which is especially apreciated since thats literally the whole point of what he does. TLDR: Love how efficiently you give the info to "decide if its something we want to pass on " so that it gets smoothly into the "why we should be interested in it"❤
Agreed. Telling us its Epic store was all I needed to know. I will not ever give that company a red cent of my money. Reviews of games on that store is a waste of my time to watch.
Yeah. Generally, I don't stick around for 90% of the videos after the first couple of minutes. Most of these indie games especially the fantasy-based ones are about as noxious to me as chlorine gas. Although I will put on his vids to fall asleep to even the ones, I've given the 4-minute jettison. From what I've learned there are different sides to this guy's RUclips persona. Sometimes he's pretty entertaining and other times he's about as delightful as a hypothermia inducing wet blanket. But all the same most times I'll give most of his videos a go if the game looks sympathetic to my likings.
I get that the AI voice gen is in-keeping with the setting/story but beeps and boops with sub-titles would have been preferable to this. Cool concept though!
Or do the Star Wars thing and have the main character make beeps while the other character understands you and can speak, so you can have your voiced exposition without giving the main character a voice that doesn't really fit.
It's hard to read text while doing things in game, meaning getting into combat with a bot beeping at you and having to read how to do certain things or getting exposition without stopping the game or freezing the game with a tutorial or cutscene can detract from pacing and enjoyment.
@@ohnoitisnt666 steam is just somehow vastly superior to every aspect to epic, dawg. Epic has almost 90% less features that steam has for the last 2 decades
@@ohnoitisnt666 they also burnt alot of good will by trying to force kickstarter games to be exclusive on epic for the first year pissing off backers that where expecting to get it on steam
this game looks better than alot of recent games from big studios so i wont mind tossing a thirty at them, do hope to see the mod community get behind them if allowed
Wasnt that Epic store supposed to be cheaper due to its 12% cut and all? Didnt we listen to Sweeny go on endlessly how they would be able to pass on the savings. Lies of another billionaire. Reviewing games on this store is a waste of your time.
I was hoping for a longer game with progression to various chassis, hovertanks, tracked, walkers etc. By the sounds of it that's not likely to be the case unless the progression's very fast.
Looks like a very solid foundation. Almost made me consider buying it on EGS, but 30€ for a 6h game is still asking a bit much. Hope they can build onto that and add more content for an eventual Steam release.
This reminds me of the Mad Max game that came out a few years ago, where your ride is the main way you interact with the world. Upgrading your armor, utility tools, engine, etc. I loved the vehicle combat so this looks perfect for me.
Open World Post Apocalyptic "Tank RPG" ... Ex Machina/Hard Truck Apocalypse, is that you again? I thought we agreed to stop meeting each other every 3 years. Edit: though I guess Mechanoids(and even Vangers) are better comparisons here?
Thatk you for bringing this game to my attention Splatsy! Hope I will remember it when it gets some more content. The scavenging and combat seems to be a promising base for great game
after finishing this amazing game i very sad. sad because it's such an amazing game but it's too short :( i wish you could go and upgrade your tank to Medium/heavy eventually, sadly it's only a light tank to the end.
Seeing something new from another store doesn't change the fact that it's a good game! This looks like a futuristic version World of Tanks and I can scrap stuff on the go.
This would be awesome if it had more like a 20-25 hour campaign instead of just 6. Although, if they make one or two solid expansions, that would be good.
He’s doing just fine. The point of these videos isn’t perfect or even competent gameplay but to simply preview it for interested parties. This isn’t a walkthrough, guide, or “let’s play”. It’s effectively free advertisement for devs (at least, I’m assuming most don’t sponsor his videos). In fact, the more imperfectly he plays, the more certain viewers will want to get the game for themselves. “I can do better” is a strong marketing force.
This is kind of like a game I've wanted for a while: A Diablo-like, but with a mech, tank, drone, etc. I really like how you attach your gear too. Seems like the game is barebones, but hopefully gets expanded upon (and gets a Steam release).
100% agree. The game looks really good. I like the graphics, the post apocalypse theme is cool and it's RPG style I love most anyway, today $30 it's OK but 6 hour game play is not much for me.. Probably hours
this would be a cool squad based BR (I don't really like BR's thb) but as a little 4-5 man squad i can imagine how fun something like that would be if done right. Edit: also you are in a light tank that has heavy plates that's why you are so quick
how's it hovering? I'd guess magnetic repulsion of some kind vs the magnetic field of the planets core, multiple adjustments per second etc 🤔 loving the "hello my name is" sticker 🤗 nice little touch - cheers for the play thru Splat 🖖
Open world custom tanks? YES PLEASE. Can't wait for it to show up on Steam.
this right here !

Ah yes, the thrill of sweet-talking. Works in every occasion.
20:00 the size of those dragon teeth has terrifying implications
The Ratte Tank
@@murkythreat Well they have hover tanks so perhaps a Hover Tatte with plasma caster.
The 'landship' you start in must have been only midway up the food chain.
41:45 that crator too
I get that the AI voice gen is in-keeping with the setting/story but beeps and boops with sub-titles would have been preferable to this. Cool concept though!
I can hear the gen 19 year-old in his voice
Or do the Star Wars thing and have the main character make beeps while the other character understands you and can speak, so you can have your voiced exposition without giving the main character a voice that doesn't really fit.
I mean the issue is they are writing speech emphatically for the robots whilst using a AI voice thing that can't do proper inflection.
It's hard to read text while doing things in game, meaning getting into combat with a bot beeping at you and having to read how to do certain things or getting exposition without stopping the game or freezing the game with a tutorial or cutscene can detract from pacing and enjoyment.
@@bewawolf19 imho the fact its written without robot slang and uses human slang really kills it for me
Looks cool, but my epic store allergy is still strong. Thanks for the vid Splat :)
Looks cool but I will definitely wait for it to come to Steam.
30 bucks and its on epic...def wait for it to come out on steam.
Why not wait for GOG release?
Also. What’s the problem with EPIC?

"Everything on me hurts..." As a 40-something veteran, I feel that.
40 confirmed, my upper back is made of gravel.

I had a friend in high school who looked like Meatloaf in his Bat Out of Hell phase, and he was often called Tankhead :D
This game gives me the "Hard Truck: Apocalypse" vibes.
Cant wait to try it out.
that was a pretty good concept for a game but sadly poorly executed as a storyline
30$ / 6hrs is a deal breaker. If it was 15$ and on steam they would make a TON more money. It's pretty astounding.
Regardless, the game looks cool.

I was thinking pacific drive
Name of the game?
@@mikowi01 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mad_Max_(2015_video_game)
That game is awesome
This tickles me in a special kind of way, thanks for sharing.
For some reason, the game "Tiny Tank" springs to mind watching this.
I am very eager to see this hit Steam. A little expensive but hopefully by the time it hits Steam there will be more to it.
What a cool concept, snagging parts from defeated enemies is neat.
This game reminds me of Pacific Drive. Art style of the UI , the layout when you build and the textures. Even the text font, i think.
yes, the more action version
Open World
Post Apocalyptic
"Tank RPG"
...
Ex Machina/Hard Truck Apocalypse, is that you again? I thought we agreed to stop meeting each other every 3 years.
Edit: though I guess Mechanoids(and even Vangers) are better comparisons here?
You reminded me of great time spent in Hard Truck Apocalypse. What a gem!
Thatk you for bringing this game to my attention Splatsy!
Hope I will remember it when it gets some more content.
The scavenging and combat seems to be a promising base for great game
after finishing this amazing game i very sad. sad because it's such an amazing game but it's too short :(
i wish you could go and upgrade your tank to Medium/heavy eventually, sadly it's only a light tank to the end.
What? Seriously? There is only the light tank? Okay, definitely not going to buy this on Epic. Waiting for Steam.
The joy splat had playing this made me giggle like a little boy as he dakka'd his way into the game.
bruh this is peak splattercat, awesome game too, i hope you had fun man
Damn this would be an instant buy for me on steam or gog. Sucks I'll have to wait a whole year. You better do a follow up video when it does!
I'll also be waiting patiently for this on Steam, but hey, at least we'll have more missions and features available by the time it hits Steam.
that's such a cool idea for a game
Will play this once it's done. There's definitely something here.
“Poptart on people” never not a single time have I ever used Poptart as verb
"Its on Epic" Left you a like and clicked away.
You fucked the algorithm. :D
Yup. Same here
Same. Lol
Same
Question; why are people not liking epic?
Seeing something new from another store doesn't change the fact that it's a good game! This looks like a futuristic version World of Tanks and I can scrap stuff on the go.
I'll be keeping an eye out for this one.
Attach a "I Break For Nobody" sign to the rear and call my tank "Dark Helmet" sounds like the right thing to do in this game.
Thank you, I was eye balling this yesterday while collecting the free game of the day, nice to get a good peek at how it plays.
Sounds like a fun concept. Hopefully it becomes a full game someday.
I'll play this if it comes to steam,
I just love that Whitaker and Cyril are voiced by the same guys that did Garrus and Admiral Hackett in Mass Effect.
When he squeals after getting the LMG is so wholesome
Only 3 missions and you need to finish them in one run to beat the game. Not much content and really buggy.
good to know hopefully they add more content before or if it comes to steam, seems pricey for that much content
I was excited, then i saw the epic games link, and whlep guess i am going to wait on this.
Yeah I'll wait for gog too.
Cyril sounds like Lance Henriksen. I've seen enough horror movies to know this bodes trouble.
It is good to watch you enjoying the game.
Really excited to buy this on not Epic!
Looking really cool and fun waiting for a steam release.
This actually looks like a pretty cool game. It's a shame it's only on epic. If it were on steam I would play it.
The opening looks like high production value
I LOVED Hard Truck back in the day and they've never made a game like it since, this seems to be about as close as you can get.
What a weird and interesting game. Very original concept
This would be awesome if it had more like a 20-25 hour campaign instead of just 6. Although, if they make one or two solid expansions, that would be good.
ngl if this wasnt on epic i would have already picked it up
Splatter's first encounter, lack of reading, and wasting finite machine gun ammo made me feel bad. Letting us down there Splat!

Trust your instincts Splat, I've never associated with anyone named Cyril that didn't stick (metaphorical)knives into me :P

I really like how you attach your gear too. Seems like the game is barebones, but hopefully gets expanded upon (and gets a Steam release).
9:22 I genuinely exploded on that joke. That was probably the best situational ass joke I've ever heard.
I'm waiting for the steam release. Beautiful game. Needs more content.
I did not know I needed a dope 3d realtime cogmind, but here we are.
Looks neat. It's going on the list
super cool game... I like when you have a nice variety of genres. Ive gotten a few games this year after watching you play.
I am not a Tank sorta guy but this looks really cool.
oh boy, this reminds of a game I played like 20 years ago. It was called Recoil. Good times^^
Absolutely fantastic design work.
Was looking for something fresh to play, thx mate
Gives me strong Pacific Drive vibes but with Mad Max
I swear I've seen the art for this floating around for like 5yrs on DA and Artstation.
Nice early preview. Not sure i will remember it when it release next year.
"Im exited to becoming one with an abrams" ... "aaaw dude?"
I didn’t expect to like this as much as I do. But gonna have to wait till it’s off epic tho
The only Cyril I've ever known is Cyril Sneer, and he definitely wasn't trust worthy. Just ask the good folks of Evergreen Forest!
Shame about epic, looks fun.
I swear this reminds me of the Java game Bubble Tanks 😅
I look forward to Epic giving this to me for free one day.
It reminded me of a game i played long ago, "Hard Truck Apocalypse".
Thanks Splatter
Another W for gaming
100% agree. The game looks really good. I like the graphics, the post apocalypse theme is cool and it's RPG style I love most anyway, today $30 it's OK but 6 hour game play is not much for me.. Probably hours
This game looks real awesome, not getting Epic store to play it though
Love the flying horseshoe crab!
This looks rad AF. Hopefully my ageing laptop can manage to play it....
If they put it on free Epic day tomorrow, plenty of people will play it hahaha
Reminds me of an old Dreamcast game called Wild Metal. With one of the aliens from the Spielberg movie "Batteries Not Included".
Looks super cool, makes you think on the fly
30 dollars, epic store, AI slop gen VA (likely visuals and writing too)
Oh yeah, this one stays in The Pile where it belongs for that last one alone.
Yeah, the dialogue reeks of being written by ChatGPT
This is different. Love it.
This looks amazing already. Santa Plz!
Like an open world Blaster Master. Neat.
looks pretty cool, will probably buy on steam
37:30 - oooofffft, savalged an armored motor that was 100%.....
This looks amazing
I appreciate you not supporting epic, splat, mans respect for that one.
"That way you can kinda poptart on people"- Mechwarrior found
This is a VERY cool idea. I almost wish isn't wasn't open world and more like missions you go in to do. This is good though,
This game looks really cool.
this would be a cool squad based BR (I don't really like BR's thb) but as a little 4-5 man squad i can imagine how fun something like that would be if done right.
Edit: also you are in a light tank that has heavy plates that's why you are so quick
Oh wonderful, another nifty looking game that I'm never going to play because of epic
the one that is shown here i feel its less tank more of AFV (Armoured Fighting Vehicle)
hopefully there will be an actual tank build later
It's like Rooikat deathmatch, really digging it, but it needs more hulls, from the models out in the world, I think they're gonna get them eventually.
This looks super cool.
how's it hovering? I'd guess magnetic repulsion of some kind vs the magnetic field of the planets core, multiple adjustments per second etc 🤔 loving the "hello my name is" sticker 🤗 nice little touch - cheers for the play thru Splat 🖖

looks fun . hope they get it to steam soon
This looks like it would be fun on steam deck.
Maybe someday
Very nice game idea and graphic 👌
