I have an AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 8-core cpu, AMD RX 7600, and 32 GB of 4800 ram. My pc literally was a budget gaming PC that cost around 1k, yet, apparently, I'm somehow getting better fps on high (around 90-100 95% of the time) than a bunch of people with 2-3k gaming PCs on low. I'm going to call bull on that. Y'all need to fix yo dang PCs.

Game runs great for me, plays great, is a ton of fun. I'm having a blast with it. Definitely recommend.

Get your boots back on the ground, Helldivers, this Major Order has a part two. Fight for our fellow divers in the 177 countries that can't join us here.

Not great at writing reviews, but I will say "Rock n' Stone."

Early Access Review
Currently, I'm 13 hours into this game and have a steam engine, 3 cars, the max amount of extensions currently, and 3 Rofleemos. Just using those to give you a sense of my progress. I've spend the last 10 hours hoping the game would progress in some interesting way. Well, the game did progress, but only into being more tedious.

I was hoping for the resource collection to improve past manual collection, but it never did. I looked online to see what it happens, and it never does. Resource collection is the backbone of the entire game. You need resources to build up your train, to make armor and equipment, to make more ammo so you don't have to rely on ammo drops. The game is either going to be a constant stop and go mess or you collect all you can before getting to the next station, where you spend the next 30+ minutes breaking your flow.

That being said, without automated resource collection, that just leads me to playing the game at the slowest speed possible, making everything drag out and making the game less fun while I frantically dash about my train while trying to collect all the good things I can, and that stopped being fun after about 2 stations of doing it, especially once you have to protect the train from hazards. That just means you either need to stop collecting and focus on taking care of the mines or have even more stop and go gameplay.

The Rofleemos are cute, but they are really just simple modifiers in the form of plushies. I was really hoping that they could be a simple form of automation, like you could tell one to work at a smelter and it would smelt scrap till you have X iron/copper, then you could have one that you tell to make things like bolts and gears while a third one builds and repairs things on the wagon you assign it to that. It could be a different solution to the resources problem, because crafting takes time, and this could take the time out of it so you don't have to spend all that time doing it yourself when you get to the next station.

Everything else in the game is fine for the most part. I can't really talk much about the gunplay that much because I got really lucky on the slots and got 2 jackpots, which made my gun super powerful and made combat a joke.
