    A better Mass Effect Andromeda than Mass Effect Andromeda was. If Mass Effect were written by someone in the 90s who loved 80s action movies and REALLY loved Mad Max. It's cheesy, in a fun way to me but to each their own, but it has fun abilities and shooting. Love the equipment system and the ease of modding items already in the game. Will be even better when cross-play gets fixed. TheA better Mass Effect Andromeda than Mass Effect Andromeda was.

    Ao jogar a BETA a primeira coisa que pude perceber foi a rasa criação de personagens, onde traz pouquíssimas variedades de personalização, mas esse era o menor dos problemas até aquele momento.

    Outriders chegou no Xbox Game Pass já em seu dia de lançamento fazendo assim com que a demanda pelo jogo fosse muito maior que o planejado, isso ocasionou (e ainda ocasiona) muitos problemas em seus servidores, fazendo com que muitos jogadores não consigam nem se conectar, já que sem conectar no servidor não poderá jogar!

    Algo que percebi ao decorrer do jogo é que os efeitos sonoros ao utilizar os poderes especiais são um pouco exagerado no volume, mostrando que sua mixagem de áudio não é uma das melhores já que algumas cutscenes em um personagem específico também é possível perceber esse problema.

    Porém não podemos deixar de elogiar a PeopleCanFly em alguns quesitos como por exemplo o combate do jogo, os cenários que ao decorrer do jogo pode se perceber que é muito mais do que “arenas de paintball” e o conteúdo do jogo, que mesmo após terminar ainda terá muito a se fazer em Outriders.    … Expand

    Don't believe the naysayers. Outriders is a very enjoyable game. Shame on Square Enix for treating it like a second-class release. But what's good about Outriders manages to shine through anyway.

In cui impressionerete il vostro alterego in cui c’è una minaccia da potere sconfiggere e molto altro ancora. è uno sparatutto GdR con trama in cui i giocatori si metteranno nei panni di un Outrider, ovvero l’ultima speranza della razza umana, e saranno intrappolati su Enoch, un pianeta pericoloso e selvaggio.

    Il gioco Lo ho giocai su PC,X-CLOUD e Google Stadia,
    Cosa vi posso dire si che e un gioco fatto molto bene stilisticamente parlando anche dal Doppiaggio non è male ma purtroppo non è tutto rosa e fiori, in quanto dalla mia prova che lo ho giocai ho avuto problemi sia il bilanciamento di livello difficoltà che potete scegliere ma il gioco è puntato in Coop e dovete giocare in cooperativa, ma è possiible farlo anche da soli il gioco ma dovete abbassare certe volte il livello di difficoltà per andare avanti perché più va avanti poi diventa complesso riguardante molti nemici sia su schermi, e poi boss molto ostici da sconfiggere molto altro.
    Demo su PC tramite XCLOUD

    Il livello di abilità come sistema di raffinazione non è male in cui il giocatore può decidere diverse classi e in cui varia il propio gameplay di gioco ed punta alle esigenze del giocatore, purtroppo è presente anche il sistema delle microtransazioni ma facilitano solo il gioco fino ad un certo punto per le armi leggendarie e altro.
    Giocato su XCLOUD

    Al livello Tecnico cosa vi posso dire è stupendo ricco di dettaglio il gioco è stato fatto con Unreal Engine 4 e in base alla piattaforme ho riscontrato pochi bug sulle collisioni e altro ma sto che il team di sviluppo lo sta correggendo in corsa per dare un’ottima esperienza l’utente su questo meraviglioso titolo, il frame rate oscilla dai 60FPS ma certe volte cala quando ci sono situazioni disparate ma rimane comunque stabile sia in 1080p e 4K su Stadia che è stato il mio banco di prova anche su Xbox tramite Xcloud si comportava molto bene anche se la connessione non era abbastanza fluida ho riscontrato pochi lag.

    La differenza tra queste tre piattaforme quale la più vincitore secondo te?

    Allora e una scelta tra il giocatore per chi non avesse Stadia può giocarlo direttamente su PC attraverso GeForce Now in streaming, se desiderate giocarlo su Console potete acquistarlo normalmente oppure per chi ha Il gamepass lo trova all’interno compreso XCLOUD per giocarlo con vostri amici Xbox e PC, poi se avete Stadia potete giocarlo tranquillamente.

    E pensato per qualsiasi esigente di pubblico ma per me la versione che rimane la migliore se volete è stadia non abbiate problemi di framerate oppure di connessione che non ho riscontrato problemi come GeForceNow e Xcloud anceh se e beta fanno un loro lavoro ma Stadia è stata la pionerre del settore ed funziona perfettamente.    … Expand

    *) Lots of bugs: Sometimes one cannot run, cannot revive other players, etc
    *) Enemies often appear out of nowhere when one goes into an empty looking part of the current battle zone
    *) The game has lots of invisible walls - in 2021... *sigh*
    *) Running back to a restock oftentimes triggers a "do not leave your allies" or "do not lead enemies to your allies" message + countdown, which either resets the encounter or teleports you right next to a powerful boss enemy
    *) Interface is clonky
    *) Graphics quality is uneven and not always AAA
    *) Path indicator does not always work, and sometimes sends you to the wrong location

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Let's get this out of the way. Outriders isn't a bad game. It's foundations are solid. But there's quite a lot of issues with the game and playability. But there's issues with the story as well.

    Let's start with issues.
    - There's plenty of bugs. From graphical bugs (most consistent one I've seen is hair "clipping" through helmets) to gameplay bugs (especially tied to the cover system). There's also a bug on some skill activations that locks your character into a slow walk animation where the only resolution is to exit and relaunch the game.
    - Game crashes ae random and intermittent. Often tied to cutscenes or interactions.
    - Shoddy servers. So this game gives us the age old lesson in what happens when you have an always online game and servers not setup for the demand. In this case constant disconnect, inability to pause, random jittery issues.
    - Game balancing, the game quickly progresses you through "world tiers" which is it's difficulty levels. It's clearly not balanced around single player and more balanced around multiplayer and co-op. Early in the game I ran into a battle where I simply could not win due to the games mechanics and setup. What's worse is like many looter shooter games (division, destiny, anthem etc) it gives players abilities. These abilities are how you heal in the game to keep fighting and do damage. But the abilities themselves are simply lack luster and fail to deliver.

    Story:
    The story is probably the worst part of the game because it simply makes no sense when you think about it for more then two seconds.

    Humanity realized Earth was going into a state of upheaval where the entire planet was having severe seismic activity. This was going to render Earth uninhabitable in a century. Out of all the proposed solutions the game mentions we follow the Flores a space ship designed to take humans to a new planet "Enoch" to become a new home.

    You play as an "Outrider" (que the reference to the games title) supposedly the best humanity has to offer in almost every field! Except you're not. The intro to the game explicitly states you aren't an actual outrider. You're one in name only. See the game describes in great detail that the actual Outriders were all killed when the caval ship that was supposed to scout ahead of the Flores had an accident and was lost in Earth orbit. So who are the actual outriders? Random mercenaries chosen and given the title.

    The game keeps referring to you throughout the story as an "outrider" as if it has some significant importance but so far it amounts to a title only. Also everyone hates you because the planet is a death trap and why would the Outriders allow anyone to land? Except they didn't. One of the heads of the expedition forced the landing and murdered most of the Outriders, the rest of them died off doing what they were supposed to be doing and exploring.

    After the start of the game you become what's called an "altered" or near immortal human with crazy powers caused by the planets weird storms. While this does cause people to be in awe of your character the Outrider moniker does not. Honestly I'm not sure what their plan is for the story here but in regards to the Outrider title it's stupid.

    Beyond that to facilitate the combat they talk about a 31 year war inside a single valley on the planet between the remaining 500,000 survivors who were marooned on the planet. It also goes on to talk about how due to the storms they lost all their technology. So for 31 years a half million people have been consistently murdering each other with little food and no technology. Yet there's gun galore and other technology. The setting doesn't make sense. Also you're allies hate you the second you wake up even though they put you in cryo. Like you even had a choice in the matter.

    The game actively tells you not to care about anything in the game. It's the opposite of good writing.    … Expand

    It's a pretty basic arena looter shooter style so don't expect an open world ala The Division and don't expect either fights in open zones. Let's say it's like Gears 5 without the open world but with loot.

    The routine is divided as follow : you are teleported in a zone where you have to run to the next arena to fight enemies. After that, you go to the next arena. Little to explore, no differents paths, just corridors empty of enemies to walk you to the next arena. The side missions are locked behind doors and opening them will "loading screen" you to another zone where you will have to repeat the game routine. It's as basic as it sounds.
    About the gameplay, this is good while not perfect (the cover system can quickly lead you to a undeserved death because of its magnet feature) but the game suffers from balancing issues.
    In the same level difficulty (aka world tier), you will be able to kill a giant arachnide "souls" boss at your first try but you will struggle against enemy captains and die several times. But overall it's okay.

    The loot is abundant and really interesting, even in low tier you will have to experiment your build, change attributes, craft and modify items, etc... This is for me where the game shines the most.

    In conclusion, Outriders is a slighty above average game, though it is really overpriced (€60) for the basic arena encounters it has to offer..    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Outriders tries to cut out it's own little piece of the looter shooter genre, instead of being just another Destiny copy it takes some risks with the formula overall with varying success. First thing I'd say is I do not think Outriders should be classified into the same broad range as other looter shooters, if anything I would call it a strange new mix of Diablo Shooter. Loot comes at you fast and furious, while most of it is generally useless you can disassemble both weapons and armor for mods that can be then placed on other pieces. At the same time you are given a small indicator on items that shows if you already own said mods and can just outright sell for "scrap", the in universe stand in for money. One of the main areas Outriders falls short is giving the player the option to focus on run and gun shooting or stick to cover. While the game gives you the option to stick to cover Gears of War style it doesn't do a great job in making it a fun experience. Most enemies will lob some type of grenade to chase you from cover or just suicide flank you making the run and gun style of shooting much more appealing and seemingly the overall meta. When I initially played the open beta for Outriders I wasn't thrilled with the story we were allowed to see nor the early class skills in general and I was hesitant at best to give this game a try. But boredom won out and I jumped in, short of early server issues and a few bugs my personal experience is Outriders ran well enough. Story wise early it is a bit hit or miss and the ending kinda hits it's mark. There are a few story beats where I was super into the mystery and others are was perplexed why that was their answer for the way events happened. Classes are a weak point early but slowly build into a strength the higher you level, allowing you to tailor a class more towards your liking. Weapons and armor are easily customizable, some armor looks great and others looks like they don't fit the universe at all. It's mainly about finding the look of armor you want, get the highest end version of it and mod it to your liking. This game is far more casual than some others in that aspect, in Outriders you probably only have to spent a few days at most to get the gear you want while other games time lock you trying to do so. Outriders end game is called "Expeditions" and is a solo or group race against time to recover crashed supply pods. While it is easier in a group some aspects of this mode were overlooked, such as solo players not getting any extra time to complete and not getting a single res like the group mode. While this mode can become a challenge higher up you go in it's levels it will still give you some rewards for failure so at least if you die solo or fail as a group you do get some reward instead of just wasted time. Overall the community as a whole is good, the Devastator class as of this review is highly lacking in end game desirability as groups prefer high end damage over a meaty tank class.

    Overall I enjoyed the game, it doesn't take any radical next steps for the genre and makes some aspects of it more casual player friendly while allowing enough end game replay ability now for it to be fun. Decent story, decently fun but lacking variety side quests, fast loot progression, scaling difficulty and good enough end game for now. Outriders is a solid game that doesn't blow down the doors of a genre but with enough support may have a decent shelf life in the market.

    -------EDIT 4/10/2021-------

    Altered my original score of a 8 down to a 5. Big brain devs panicked over some classes out preforming others and subsequently flailed around in the darkness and nerfed basically everything to hell. Instead of selective nerfs and buffs to help bring some classes down and others up just a bit they basically killed all high end builds that were clearing content too fast and moved the timed gated end game goal post to make it virtually impossible on higher levels solo and in groups a times. Not only did the "over preforming" classes take massive damage and survivability hit the lower end classes also took the same hit. So the meta builds are still the meta, the crap classes and still crap and no one is having fun trying to hit a insane time limit on end game content. Until People Can Fly gets their heads out of their asses and fixes this plus a whole new full inventory wipe bug. AVOID OUTRIDERS.    … Expand

    The game has potential if it actually loaded every time or didn't crash. The game needs more diversity in tactics. It feels repetitive after a while. The game play is fun. The maps are pretty (BUT narrow) The story is a little confusing. If they fix some simple issues I'd rate it a 7 or even 8 because I love coop games

    + Somewhat interesting world
    + Semi-deep class customization, though as always i hate meta builds being mandatory

    Negatives:
    - Cringeworthy dialogue (either be serious or comedic and not both), story that goes nowhere (the
    ending was a joke) and characters who cant stop talking, runing any sense of atmosphere on an
    alien world.
    - Very much wasted potential concerning the world and setting in general (i.e. reusing models for
    bosses, especially for the hunting missions where the monsters are supposed to be named
    individual beasts that you even bring back as a trophy, but then they all are just normal boss
    monsters in different colors, very dissapointing)( Alien natives, that end up as cannon fooder, with
    no background, no "alien" culture, no special traits beside one different captain.)( All factions use
    the same army tactics/units, even the aliens. Basically just different skins)
    - Always-Online which i will never stop hating
    - An insane amount of bugs. Lightning glitches, not properly functioning gear or passives, game
    crashing on startup and so on.
    - Somewhat weak feeling abilities.

    Again, i had fun with the game. But you can make anything fun with friends, so i dont want to use that argument. My main feeling with this game would be disapointed.

    Игра позиционировала как онлайн шутер, но онлайн не работает! Тебя постоянно выкидывает (ладно есть предупреждение об этом для консолей, забавно).

    Es un juego que no tiene nada, lo único que sabe hacer bien es que te apetezca seguir jugando un poco de manera compulsiva, y lo hace bien, en cambio otros lo hacen con pases de batalla que debes completar para recuperar la inversión.

La sensación al jugar, a pesar de sus carencias, resulta mucho más agradable que el Gears 5. Lo podría comparar en eso de que apetezca seguir jugándolo a un Assassins Creed, pero infinitamente más feo, con un mundo y un diseño muy poco trabajados, aunque aquí la sensación de progresión se siente más por ser más lineal que un Assassins Creed que juega a distraerte por todas partes. Viendo la reacción de Square Enix a las ventas recomiendo pasar de este y esperar a un Outriders 2. [Hablo desde una experiencia puramente SINGLE PLAYER. ]… Expand

    Outriders guarantees an enjoyable evening with friends. We had lots of fun clearing out stage after stage, gathering loot, upgrading our gear and improving our builds so they complement each other perfectly. The final score would have been higher if it weren’t for tons of technical issues we had to deal with. [06/2021, p.28]

    Killing everything that moves with bullets and magic while enjoying picturesque alien vistas is good enough for 20 hours (30, if you’re into Expeditions), but don’t expect anything more substantial out of Outriders.

    Gears of War meets Destiny… and the end result is mediocre. Take away the "coolness" of playing a gun totting superhero, and all you are left with is basically one more generic looter shooter, that doesn't manage to impress, neither with its repetitive gameplay, nor with its boring story and world building. Add to that a couple of technical and network issues, and you are in for a - pricey - treat.
