    Obviously, Whoever Jared is hasn't actually played the game. I payed $50 and have 2 months free game time. It's $10 a month to play after that. So, his only complaint after which, he rated it a 0 is a lie. You get two months free when you purchase it at full price. Now, the MMO content is a lot of fun.

You can create anything from the clothes you wear to the modifications of the guns that can be created. The PvP is a blast, and I keep coming back for more... and I've been playing for over a month. I don't really feel as if I'm grinding for levels, as I do with other MMOs, but my character is advancing and becoming better. I honestly think this is one of the best games I have played in a long time. I have only come along two problems with the game, one of which the developers can do nothing about, and that is a bunch of whiny people playing the game. The only real complaint I have come across is that I think a passive skill shouldn't have to be equipped, but I guess that's arguable. Anyway, there's tons of stuff to be crafted, a persistent Auction House with fluctuating prices, and tons of Third Person Shooter action to be had... All for $50 for two months of free play online and only $10 thereafter. What more can you ask for?… Expand

    This game has loads of potential and a very fun and addicting combat system. The interface between the city/lobby and the action is smooth and things look great. I have to comment on "Jared J," who gave the game a 0 because he never learned to read. The 1st 2 months do not cost 19.99. The first 2 months are free, and included in the price of the game, which is now like 30-40 bucks. After This game has loads of potential and a very fun and addicting combat system.

Strong game with a good future.… Expand

    This game is definatly on my list, the reason I give it a 10/10 without even playing is the fact that the videos and comments are exeptional and this game deserves what it gets although I found that the only thing wrong is paying monthly but then again, a lot of good games don't come free.

    This game is -not- as awful as most folks say it is. Yes, it's a little tough to get into. Yes, the devs put it out there with a downright hubristic money-making scheme. No, it's not worth paying full-price plus subscription PLUS cash shop money.

Yes, it's a little tough to get into. Yes, the devs put it out there with a downright hubristic money-making scheme. No, it's not worth paying full-price plus subscription PLUS cash shop money. I think that this game's major downfall is that they tried to pull too much cash out of a notoriously tightwaddy community; PC gamers don't like paying for things they could have for free, and in CrimeCraft's case, the game was not compelling enough to make a real impact on gamers' wallets. It is, however, going free to play. This, I believe, will be a major turning point for CrimeCraft; I hope they pull things up again, as they certainly deserve a shot at getting along now that they've realized their most crippling mistake.… Expand

    The controls of this game are pretty easy to get used to. The graphics are unreal and the ammount of weapons is a definite plus. Shooting and player movement is excellent. Forming your gang is an easy process, and communicaiton within the game is great. I am kicking my brother's butt every day, HAHA. I think he's about to leave my gang and create his own. Definetely worth every penny.

    Games pretty tight. Controls are solid. Feeling like I'm a little weak but i got a few levels between me and the guys I'm fightin so it's cool. Looks promising.

    I was hesitant to pick up this game at first, but I found that it is really a very fun and enjoyable experience. There is much to do in "Sunrise City" nd a lot of the people that were playing in the game were older, instead of the typical snot-nosed tweens that love to play 1st/3rd person games, swearing and calling people names.

I liked the fact that CrimeCraft seems to have drawn an older crowd. I also think that the graphics in the game are top noihe for a PC game. Granted the specs to run the game are high, the fact that the characters are all dynamically lit and run around the environment so smoothly is really cool. I was happy to pick up CrimeCraft and I'm excited to see what they do with the game over the next two months. If dramatic improvements are made during the two months trial period that comes with the game, I'll be playing this one for a long time.… Expand

    I bought this game, and while loading, read up on some reviews, finding most of them to be very negative. After playing the game I can tell that all of the negative comments I read so far were seemed untrue.. The graphics are exceptional, and the gameplay is great. PvP is awesome, and even PvE is cool, which is saying a lot, cause I hate playing bots, but the AI is actually pretty good.

Customization is definitely there and extensive, and they've even been adding things steadily. At this point I believe that negative reviews come from people that have never played the game. Guys that like action and tough fight should definitely buy it and play it now. Join the fun!… Expand

    OK, First off this is a game for SHOOTER fans who are looking for a bit more than the run and gun shooter. This is not a game for the WOW crowd or any other standard MMORPG player. Now with that out of the way, Crime Craft is a very solid game that offers just the right amounts of RPG but doesnt sacrafice the Shooter aspect of the game.

Now with that out of the way, Crime Craft is a very solid game that offers just the right amounts of RPG but doesnt sacrafice the Shooter aspect of the game. Anyone who has ever played DEUS EX will have a soft spot for this game. Being that this game is in its infancy it is expected that the game will have growing pains but this game plays so well and has so much potential for expansion that any complaints are minor in nature. Bottom line is that the success of this game will rest heavily in getting people to play it and then to support this game with alot of Downloadable Content.… Expand

    The standard PvP gameplay can be a lot of fun, and the RPG elements are better than expected. But much of what is offered is available in most shooters with free multiplayer.

    There are fun moments to be had, but it feels like a combination of different games forced together. There isn't anything terribly unique about it, and frankly, it really needs more game play content outside of the instances.

    You'd think that a "persistent world next-gen shooter" would have a persistent world. What you get instead is a static universe filled with traditional non-player character vendors, crafting facilities, auction houses, and a distinct lack of adventure.
