    es un buen juego multiplayer, jugar el modo campaña de 3 es una experiencia muy buena, los gráficos son muy buenos.
    Lo que se noto bajo es la calidad de la historia, y algunos bugs que se van encontrando mientras realizamos la campaña...

    Outriders is much like other games throughout history that launched early on in a console's lifespan but weren't considered system sellers.

It's a fairly mediocre game that gives you something to play on your shiny new console until a killer first-party game or the next big installment in an established AAA franchise drops. It's also a game that requires you to invest some time into it before you 'get to the good part' and can actually see its appeal.

    There are a couple of hurdles that players will have to overcome before they can really extract some decent entertainment from Outriders. First, you will need to play until about level 10. This will get you access to your class skills as well as get you into the skill tree. Before that level, the game feels like a cover shooter with a gimmick...which it is, but you can't appreciate the gimmick without some time invested. It's a poor design decision and only the first of several.

    Second, you will need to "unlearn" what you know about similar games. Outriders will be accused of copying from The Division and Gears of War, but if you play this game like those other two, you will find that the game is both difficult and unrewarding. It is actually better to play aggressively, chasing enemies down, firing off your abilities, swapping out weapons, and only using cover to reload your weapons or wait out a skill cooldown. Playing conservatively as you might in the Division will only lead to frustration as enemies swarm over you.

    The game requires an online connection, I imagine primarily to keep cheaters at bay. However, there is no competitive mode, only co-op. The game offers four classes, but parties are limited to only three players, another odd choice.

    Fast travel is available, though it is very clunky. There are hub areas scattered about, and you can fast-travel to points you have previously unlocked. However, this is limited to your immediate area. For some reason, for example, you cannot travel from the field in the first zone to the third hub area, or a field in the fourth zone. You must return to the hubs, and inter-hub travel is only available there. From the hubs, you have to fast-travel AGAIN to field locations near whatever hub you are in. Maybe there is a technical reason for this but it still comes off as very odd.

    I didn't find the story compelling in the slightest. The premise is a little interesting, but then it's handled in a way that either expects you to know what's going on without any background, or be interested in the missing details enough that you want to progress the story or side missions.

    Graphics are certainly not next-gen. There's not much difference between PS5 Outriders and something from the PS3/Xbox 360 era. I was a little miffed to see so much clipping on various models, both characters and the environment. At this stage of video gaming, it just seems lazy.

    Barring all this, the game does have some interesting gameplay. Finding a good combination of skills and weapon types can be compelling, though, due to the always-online nature of the game, you can't pause mid-battle to swap out from your inventory. The game continues to be 'live' even when in the menus, so if you enter a battle with the wrong gear/skills, you will likely have to die in order to try again. The loot system is fun, allowing you to modify existing gear in a number of interesting ways, using several types of resources.

    Overall, it's not a great experience but it's not total garbage. If you are willing to invest some time, you will likely get some entertainment out of the game, at least until the next big thing comes along.    … Expand

    For me this game could have been a 9/10 but I'm going to have to give it a 6 because of specific reasons.

    First you should know that I'm on PSN and have reached World Tier 15 and also about to complete the Challenge Trials. Throughout my whole experience in the campaign I was under the impression that raising World Tiers would improve my chances in getting legendary drops, and as well be the core area where I could keep raising my weapon levels and continue farming. I always considered the Time Trials in Challenge Tier to be more of a side thing, something you do to test your builds but not be the main area to where you farm.

    After completing the story in WT15 and also helping other friends reach WT15, meaning I put in around an extra 15 hours in the campaign while playing in WT15, I only found 1 legendary drop. The rest of the legendaries I received in the campaign were all put behind a quest wall, meaning that they are guaranteed if you follow certain side missions, like completing all the hunts, bounties, and collecting souvenirs. I thought for a minute that yes if I continue going up WT I will finally start seeing Legendary drops like in my other favorite looter games, Diablo Series and Borderlands, but that hope never came to be realized. I had 1 legendary drop after endless hours in the campaign to soon realize that when it comes to legendary items Outriders is more like Destiny than my favorite looter games. After finishing the campaign in WT15 I was able to reach CT12 in just 2 hours, but then the repetitiveness and lack of maps got boring pretty fast. It reminds me a lot of Destiny in that aspect. I want to start other classes but knowing what the end game is like, and knowing that there is no incentive in the campaign anymore I just don't feel as excited or motivated to do it. Returnal is coming out soon so now I have my sights on other games.

    I resent the players who just sped through the game in WT7 to reach Challenge trials, who just grinded hours on CT to increase their legendary drops. I stopped playing destiny because of those type of repetitive trial grinds where you can't move around the world and traverse around the environments for legendary drops. I also resent that all the time I put into World Tier farming was basically a pointless endeavor, and now it feels like I wasted my time. My biggest question is why is there a cap in World Tier when the campaign world is so much more vast, with better designed maps and more side missions. The campaign as whole is ten times more diverse than time trials (Challenge Tier).

    To me Challenge trial is a gimmick you see in live service games, but People Can Fly specifically mentioned that this is not a live service game. So what is the catch? Why don't they want to give incentive to loot hunters to appreciate their campaign and side missions and level up their World Tier? Why did they design their game with two seperate looting systems which make their campaign World Tiers irrelevant to the core mechanic for legendary hunting and gear leveling.

    I hope one day they realize that the only way to make the game complete as a whole is to raise the World Tier Cap to 20, and make the Time Trial challenges a place to test your gear, not a place to find and level your gear. If anything Outriders should give players the option to grind the campaign or challenge trials.

    Capping the World Tier to 15 and lowering the legendary drop rate to a near 0% lowers all incentive to appreciate the campaign and side missions. There is literally no reason for loot hunters to care about the campaign, which in my opinion has better map designs than Challenge trials.

    Other than this I thought the game was really good, and I love all the classes and the gameplay is fantastic. Too bad, that they didn't grasp on what makes looter games great, such as other of the greatest hits. By the time I finished games in Diablo and Borderlands I would be swimming in legendaries and experimenting endlessly with my builds. In Outriders it feels like a grind and I don't think I want to keep putting in the time to reach that level of desired experimentation. I need 2 more trophies for my platinum and after that I think I'm going to put the game in the shelf (figuratively speaking since I'm all digital)

    PS. I don't think it should be a standard for developers to release games with so many bugs and issues. This is not something we should accept. So I'm lowering my score to a 6. Still it could have been a 9/10    … Expand

    Welcome to the worst character customisation from the previous or new generation of game consoles. I think they spent 20 minutes on these options, plus if you don't like what you picked, it's fine; sometimes you change race during cutscenes. A bug that hasn't been seen since the Age of Conan MMO.

I think they spent 20 minutes on these options, plus if you don't like what you picked, it's fine; sometimes you change race during cutscenes. A bug that hasn't been seen since the Age of Conan MMO.

    For some reason the radar is on the top left, which i can't think of any game that's ever done that. I mean it just looks terrible being there instead of top right.

    Graphically it's a mixed bag - the game looks better during cutscenes than what you actually play - it's a little jarring and certainly not as seamless as they intended.

    It can look pretty, and sometimes really good but other times it's drab, worn and you can tell a lot of environment parts were reused. For an open-world game, you'd get that but for an instanced game where each area is separate - it feels rushed.

    open every chest because in some areas the masses of ammo boxes and loot boxes look the same. Seriously... hell take the first real area when they give you a sniper rifle. Speaking of...

    Draw distance. When using a sniper rifle this is ridiculously bad, i thought i had loaded up Brute Force for the original xbox. The powers are interesting, the classes as well.. but the shooting, the shooting doesn't feel good. Destiny (say what you want about Bungies inability to tell a story) but the gameplay is fast, fluid and fun.

    This gameplay doesn't know whether to be slow, fast or fluid and mixes them up with weird results. It's not a pleasant experience. But like bad shooters of old you get used to it the more you play as you kill the walking, sometimes exploding for no reason, pinatas for loot.

    Story wise, it feels like they mixed mass effect andromeda with killzone and a spice of bulletstorm (they did make that one) - it's very genetic; being violent for violent sake (expect a lot of enemy bodies exploding in blood). You can tell why it's not a "Live Service" as they'd be heavily criticised. As it is, it kinda works as a co op but the game play; AI, Cover system all feels like it's a decade old. And that's not a compliment.

    I honestly think they're trying to make a niche between borderlands and Destiny/The Division etc. Although never of those were quite as linear as this game, hell even in the camp area which is large there's people blocking off passageways etc until "you're ready" to progress there, even if it's all instanced (worse than the city in anthem).

    turn off motion blur in the settings. And no there's no way to move the radar to the top right where it belongs.. the world tier is a nice idea but nothing we haven't seen in diablo, warhammer etc

    For a new game, it feels aged. It's just average; average shooter, average story... just.. meh. 6/10. A rushed ill thought out co op shooter - fun with friends drinking. but very 2010

    hold X to pay respects. Retro is in fashion after all, and this offers nothing new. I'm just glad i got the Xbox Game Pass 3 months for £1. Oh look my character went from black to white, and now i think he's hispanic... should have named him Michael    … Expand

    The game mimics alot of other always online live-service type games, with The Division taking the most of its base data from. Its an over-the-shoulder 3rd person shooter with RPG mechanics and based almost entirely on loot grinding. However the game also tries to sway towards the opposite end of the spectrum by forgoing the usual open world map associated with these games and opting for smaller levels with an extremely tight focus on what each part of the map is meant for at the end of the day. It doesnt really work as well as it could have, since the map is pretty bad, especially since theres no freaking compus on the mini map which still drives me insane. And each map is very similar. Once you leave the forest areas you come to the desert areas and so on.
    Gameplay is at least enjoyable for the most part. Each class is pretty fun but you're really doing yourself a disservice if you dont at least try to get your class to level 10ish as thats when alot of the fun mechanics of the game finally start to open up. Problem is, at the end of the day, there's just not alot to do here. I personally got 1 character to finish the story and the end game is just grinding the same old dungeons over and over again. There's not alot here to keep me going to grind out loot and continue with the slog that all these live service games end up becoming in the end.
    I personally like these 3rd person style shooters like this, but there's not enough here to keep me going for very long. All the issues with it being always online and the servers being down quite often for a game that very clearly could have been done offline is always baffling to me. This feels like the very definition of a B tier game to me. There's some fun to be had but alot of weird and off putting things keep it from being any higher and will keep me from continuing to play it long term.    … Expand

    Just be aware that the gameplay is focused on you moving all the time and using your abilities every time, playing it using cover will get you killed quite fast.
    It is that type of game with a huge amount of loot, making you spend more time than you want in the menus analyzing statuses. The menus are copied from Destiny, so you have a boring cursor making everything slow in the consoles
    The graphics does not feel like last gen, until you find the correct HDR configuration (and the game does not help you to reach it) everything is very bland.
    The story is boring and forgettable, saying more than this is saying more than the story.
    The sound of the weapons and abilities is cool, I don't recall if the game has any music in it.

    Earth dead, colonize new world, superpowers. The story is barely serviceable, but its there and its decent enough. If you were expecting GoW Judgement or Bulletstorm levels of entertaining from People Can Fly, its not here.

    The shooty stuff is good, the weapons (mostly) are useful and pack an ever increasing punch. The cover mechanics are nowhere near as responsive for a studio that made a Gears game, often times your character will go zipping off at an odd angle. Sometimes hits don't register. Lots of weird little things.

    There's 2 major issues (for me) that killed this game:

    1) Lazy programming.
    - Enemy AI has 2 (and only 2) behaviors: Enemy shoots with pinpoint accuracy from 10 miles away
    - Or more often, every single enemy on screen rushes you at the same time. I mean they all want to have their gun barrels touching your cheek. It completely destroys any ebb and flow to combat.

    2) Cover mechanics and boss encounters are broken.
    - Often times all a boss has to do is swing their hand/claw at you. It doesn't matter if it actually hits you, because you'll take damage anyways. Even if you're a mile away.
    - Their special attack goes through cover, destroying the whole point of cover (we're talking stone pillars 10 feet thick). Again, destroys any ebb and flow that the combat could have had.

    Combine those two flaws together. Then imagine that literally EVERY enemy in the game can match your speed. You cannot out run them, regardless of who/what it is. Every enemy runs at the same speed. YOUR SPEED.

    You can't outrun them, they ALL want to be in your personal space, they never miss, they don't have cooldowns and they toss grenades like confetti. I can't imagine this would be fun with friends.

    PROS:
    - 4k/60 on PS5
    - Guns are diverse enough to be interesting
    - Mod system is robust enough
    - Abilities are interesting for the most part

    CONS:
    - Graphics are decidedly last gen. Its not bad. Its not great either.
    - Trash story, uninteresting characters, cringy Pandora-like aliens (who live in Pueblo style houses lol)
    - Lazy programming/enemy AI
    - Boss encounters vary wildly depending on how broken they are mechanically
    - Most of the game design is extremely generic until the last 2-3 areas
    - No scaling for solo players, be warned.
    - Level scaling is broken, being one level under an enemy can mean thousands of hit point/health points below an enemy.
    - No matchmaking for endgame activities, you can "matchmake" to join other peoples parties, but they're currently booting players at the end of a run to keep the rewards for themselves. Good job, PCF.
    - Fade out and fade in, for every interaction, every 5 seconds. WTH???
    - Boss powers (and sometimes bullets) go through walls, making cover pointless.
    - Lots of odd glitches, cover system is garbage (This studio made GoW Judgement BTW), bullets and sniper fire go through walls/cover. Lots of bugs and jank.

    I regret this purchase. Wait for a good sale (or rent on Game Pass if that's your thing), its not worth $60 in its current state. Probably never will be, it's problems are in the foundation of this game.    … Expand

The one area where it really differentiates itself is in having the most clichéd plots and the most hackneyed dialogue I can remember, combined with impressively awful voice acting for most roles. Really not worth the effort of battling through the server issues, I would have preferred paying for a Bulletstorm DLC really.… Expand

    The game is actually good, but the game crashes and disconnects make it unplayable. No offline single player and always on compulsion have let the fun of the game fall into a deep hole. If you have time to play, you can't do it.

    Кооп на соньке (час до коопа), тормоза когда Сони хост или слабый проц. Игромеханически кооп устроен по уникальным коллекционным предметам, по уникальным у каждого лутам, но с общими квестовыми предметами и целями. Вплоть до побочных разговоров. Потому не смейте без коопа поднимать квестовые вещи иначе можете запороть ачивку другу.

    Кооп система голосований, 2 против одного - доминирование. Отложить.

    Черные экраны. Пример с мостом. или пролазать сквозь горы. С интерфейсом. Интерфейс без ссд. Затухание, растухание звука. Только под пиво или если вы очень устали вам это не будет бесить.
    пропадающий звук и потом появляющийся при заходе в интерфейс

    Вначале чувствуется Пафос пипл Кен Флай. Но главный герой серая размазня, а не суровый мужик. В итоге, пафосная история не работает, потому что ей не хватает харизматического героя.

    Есть пару юморных сцен в духе студии и они смотрятся хорошо.

    В игре всё происходит очень быстро и вы входите в темп боя так, чтобы между боями было мало перерыва, а перерыв нужен то чтобы собрать секретки и ресурсы.

    Чтобы быстро обозреть локацию глазами разработчики запретили в игре прыгать. Таким образом вы как крот смотрите только вниз.

    Сама стрельба сделана в виде губок, играя троём я бывало просто всаживал по 3-4 обоймы пулемета, Карл в врага чтобы его убить. Мини боссы вообще без реакции, удобно для снайперов. У остальных голова дёргается, будто с них конфеты можно выбить

    Импакта от попадания в части тела нет. А бонус всего 20-25% критического урона (не шанса, урона). Хотя это качается и оружием и бронёй и способностями.

    кстати способности на броне, оружии и вашего класса легко перекачиваются. Что-то бесплатно, а что-то платно.

    Использовать способности весело. В игре есть совершенно разных класса и у каждого 3 специализации которые отличаются пассивками. Например я играл за и у меня был вариант играть с дробовиком и ближним боем или штурмовой винтовой и усилением патронов.

    Итоги:
    Игра не для одного игрока.

    Это не игра уровня пипл Кен Флай. Это нишевый продукт от них для коопа.
    Отсутствие прыжков, картонная физика, Подзагрузки - а значит гигантские проблемы с оптимизацией. Но тут даже трупы исчезают и нет крови и крутых отражений на земле, а анимации взяты тупо с прошлых игр. Что тут не так?
    Но что в ней хорошего: вы играли в коопные игры? Что в них главное? Треш и угар серьезного Сэма, круши и ломай и мочи? может с вызовом как ремнант?    … Expand

Specially when I crash down like a meteor and turn 15 enemies into a pile of grinded meat. The end game is really fun as well. The expeditions are made so they connect really good to the story.

    An extremely bland looter and shooter. Nothing too great to write home about, feels more of a poorly done clone of others mixed together. Story dragged on, weapons got stale.

    Not the worst game out tbere, would recommend to play with friends when the game goes on sale. Gave 5/10 for uninspired gameplay, but reasonable considering the conditions.

RedDead 2 draws me in to the story and the graphics would make Ansel Adams hang up his photography career and sell shoes instead... this title does none of that. The loot/gear systems feels eerily like Anthem... (most disappointing game ever... so far) which is particularly disturbing. Really not a good sign at first blush. They say they're patching and updating blah blah blah but Anthem's dev's said that for a year before we finally got the "yeah, just kidding. We're abandoning this project" announcement... Outriders has some good foundations and there's potential here... but it feels like yet another instance of the Dev's trying hard to meet a release date and bypassing a whole lot of Quality Assurance testing to hit that date just to satisfy the investors.

    A generic game, it is a mixture of things that worked in other games, but used in a sloppy way in Outriders. A cover system taken directly from Gears of War, but without the intuition adopted by its predecessor, its loot mechanics are similar to Destiny's, only unfinished! It is a great addition to the Game Pass, but it does not pay off the investment in other platforms!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm a looter shooter fan. I enjoyed Destiny 2 a bit, Division was pretty ok, and I'm getting into Borderlands 2. That said, Outriders is not great. The graphics range from serviceable, to absolutely laughable, the grass looks like **** the character models aren't good, but the effects look great, especially the fire. I can excuse graphics if the gameplay is good. It's the worst part. The prologue is horrendous, it starts with you just walking! WALKING?! After a few cutscenes we're put into a tutorial, the first thing we're told is to take cover. Most people will tell you "Do not play it like a cover-shooter, it's for the enemies, the BRAINDEAD enemies". After killing a few idiots. We can run. yay. So after continuing the story, we're put into a tutorial that "emphasizes" the importance of rolling. They give us an enemy that does no damage at all... I should mention the game at this point is laughably easy, it does get harder later on, but that does not excuse the laziness of this tutorial, and the entire prologue at that point. So we kill the animal and move on. Then we reach the first combat encounter. Now, I need to mention this. It takes over a minute for the enemies to kill you standing out in the open... What the **** In the later world tiers cover is gonna be important because you'll be taking excessive damage, AND THE GAME ALLOWS YOU TO STAND OUT IN THE OPEN WITH YOUR DICK FLYING AROUND. My god, what were they thinking here? Now the A.I... No one at People Can Fly took a single lesson from Halo, or any other shooters with good A.I? Because the enemies don't behave in any interesting way. They just stand out in the open begging for you to end them, that's understandable. Let's jump from the prologue to the point where you're impaled with a spear and are allowed to pick a class. I chose devastator for anyone asking. The abilities are really cool, I've seen other classes with their own cool abilities. There's great stuff here, Gravity Slam is probably my favorite, as it serves for being a quick escape, and allows you to go to another section of the fight in an instant. My praise ends here unfortunately. The quests are same **** different area. Clear it out, turn it in. No interesting set pieces, or any fun combat encounters. Because when you progress world tiers, enemies deal more damage, and become bullet sponges. However, the A.I is still just as bad as in Tier 1. So not much has changed, has it? No. I won't touch on the story or the characters. I simply don't really care about it that much. Like it or hate it, good for you. Love this game? I'm happy for you. I can't stop you from enjoying something. But I personally do not like this game. Square Enix, please publish something that isn't a looter. First it was Avengers. Now this. Hey, Outriders is not nearly as bad as that game. So it's a step in the right direction nonetheless.… Expand

Finally, the cover system is broken or People Can Fly didn't intend for this to be a cover based game until later in more than a few seconds. Not because enemies are flanking or charging, but because they can hit through the cover, and not just a little bit either. It took me until about half way through the campaign before I realized that I did not particularly enjoy my time with the game.… Expand

    Overtooled, underthought, poorly made gameplay. Not one class feels fun to play with; there is too much nonsense on screen, everything is shrunk down to barely able to see (seriously, I can't even see the targeting reticle, and I have 20/20 vision), and every fight is the same thing.

    I'm supposed to believe humanity killed earth, went to another planet to start over with half a million humans, and within 30 years just decided to kill each other. What am I supposed to be doing here? There's what, maybe 2-3 million humans now, and they're killing each other, and I'm killing them. What am I fighting for? What's the point?

    The player character is a doofus, with awful one-liners. He's "altered" and immortal, which means he's basically a guardian knockoff.

    The game is really excited to use the "F" word (shared this way, so I don't get flagged or something).

    Class abilities are poor and unfun, gunplay has no impact, and every enemy is a bullet sponge. I think people are desperate for something to do. Don't waste your money on this. It's even ugly to look at. Just drab disparate brown areas that are poorly lit.

    There are better games to play, don't waste your time with this.

    * After spending about 10 hours with this, I feel comfortable suggesting you don't waste your time with this. The plot is miserable; combat never feels good, I mean at all. Every battle consists of enemies lobbing grenades at your location, dropping grenades when they are defeated, and WAY too many enemies to deal with every time. It's not a "Challenge" to swam the player with 20-30 mobs at once and then in waves.

    I am honestly confused by the people enjoying this. I have to assume most people playing this are Destiny 2/The Division/Warframe players. How can you find any enjoyment with this game when it's inferior to every one of those I just mentioned in terms of gameplay.

For example, playing old God of War games on low difficulty, a player could never touch counter mechanic and beat the game. But if you want to beat the game on the two hardest mechanics you have to learn to counter every enemies moves. Fun, rewarding, deeper game play with increased difficulty.

    Comparing Outriders to that. We find that harder difficulty in Outriders, you simply abuse the bad AI, lure one, two, or three of the strongest enemies away. Use broken unbalanced abilities like Gravity run to become invulnerable while you wait out the timer on you bullet shield abilities. And just rise and repeat until the enemies with ungodly amounts of health are dead. You use 2 or 3 moves. You do nothing fun or active. And it takes 15min or so because the enemies are literally of a bullet sponge nature so disgusting I would have to reclassify the enemies as bullet black holes. In short UNBALANCED. And seemingly UNTESTED.

    For an example I timed how long it takes to beat the last boss with a pretty decent lvl 30 character, and it is around 45min. And this gets worse if you didn't spec your character to fight that boss specifically. And what do you do for 45min? The same exact thing OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER. It is so mind numbingly stupid it is hard to believe anyone wrote off on this game.

    I could of on and on on why this game is worth at most $20. But just believe the bad reviews on this one. It isn't ready, it isn't balanced or tested. It isn't good at all. I honestly thing it probably can't be fixed either, as the core is just boring.

    Conclusion: STAY AWAY    … Expand

Story is meh and character acting comical at times. I think they have the demo and the free x games pass to ensure they get fan boys supporting it to counter any negative views. For me it is not worth the asking price. It they are giving it free to x games pass then they may as well sell it at half the asking price.

    To deal with the elephant in the room,Yes the servers are a mess at the moment but the devs have constantly been working to repair them and have communicated a lot with the community so that wont be factored into the review because EVERY SINGLE online game has this problem even years after being out.

    Gameplay - The combat is some of the most fun ive ever had in a video game.It starts off super slow because you dont have a build,but once you actually hit end game and can put together a build..the game really opens up. The game doesnt even want you to use cover because of the health gain system.The reviews that state that are because they are trash at the game..Nothing more satisfying then mowing down 200 guys within 30 seconds in a flaming pile of bloody mess.

    Story - It was actually pretty good for what it was.It had some twists and turns,and really felt like what you were doing was making a difference.Then of course the huge plot twist at the end is just fantastic.Sure the characters can seem a bit meh,but i loved every single character in the game.

    The voice acting is decent,the music is pretty stellar,and the guns feel really good to use.

    End game is where you actually get to play.The expeditions are a blast but i wish they were longer and more open.The gearing system is really good,and the variety of enemies is top nothc (unlike other games like this i.e Destiny,The Division)

    Overall dont listen to the bad reviews..they are a bunch of man children upset that the game had day 1 issues with servers (someone never played diablo 3 or destiny or the division or any online game ever made)    … Expand

I'm seriously dismayed as to why anyone would think that this is better than bleow average...and that's giving it more credit than it deserves. Push aside the server issues at the moment...hopefully they get resolved soon...there are way too many unecessary little scenes...like opening a door makes you wait and watch a little scene of you opening the door. You can't play more than a moments without needing to load something...which take a while. Several times my skills simply stopped working....they were charges...and you could see the little tile animation that I was trying to engage it....but nothing happens...so as a technomancer/support role...I have no skills and could contribute only some marginal firepower for the entire battle. IT's unacceptable how badly tested (if tested at all) this game was. It's simply no ready for primetime. Even if everything gets magically fixed...the story is not engaging and just meh. Feels like a poor adaptation of gears of war.

If you are looking for stability and fun. This. Is. Not.Before leaving this review I played through the entire campaign, 50/50 solo/co-op. If you are looking for a game that takes things to the next level, this isn't it. If you are looking for the LOOTER SHOOTER of the new age, this isn't it. If you are looking for diverse enemies, captivating gunplay, and abilities, well this isn't it. If you are looking for stability and fun. This. Is. Not. It.

    If you are looking for bullet sponge enemies that rival the division, this is for you. If you are looking for the same enemies, just reskinned, this is for you. If you are looking to throw feathers at your enemies while they hurl bricks at you with a precision that has the U.S. military looking into what training they received, this is for you. If you are looking for bland "powers", recycled guns, garbage scaling, and a metric ton of game-breaking glitches and server instability inspired by great games of the past like Anthem then this is the game for you!

    Outriders 100% anthemed itself. The story, if you could call it that, is underwhelming with characters as forgettable as everything they taught me in school. No one has any weight. When people die it's like "yeah ok who are you again?". The graphics are ok but nothing really special. The world is 90% the same everywhere you go with nothing really visually enthralling. A whole lot of nothing everywhere you look. The humor and edgy dark lines delivered throughout this sham had me rolling my eyes and pleading with whoever I was actually able to play with to just skip this cut scene. Sound is inconsistent and cuts out quite frequently along with the guaranteed inevitable "lost connection" screen you will see.

    Enemies that should be a threat early on aren't and when you get to late game (where you should be feeling a challenge but also powerful), you are often getting your head introduced to your butt. No, you're not really all that powerful, actually, you're as threatening to the enemy endgame scaling as butter is to a hot knife, you're the butter. You need to rely on RNGesus and pray for god rolls on any and everything you're using otherwise it's one or two hits and you are dead.

    There is cover in this game, but don't go thinking it's for you, it's for the enemy. The cover that is not for you, lets them shoot you aggressively and kill you aggressively. Now not only do they absolutely abuse cover, enough to warrant an investigation, but it appears that they were raised by the cover and have a special bond with it. You as the invader have threatened their cover so they seek to protect it from you by sniping or grenading the enjoyment out of you and whoever else thinks they have a snowball's chance in hell of hiding behind that particular object. It should be noted that they have also been blessed with the ability to reverse uno any damage you deal upon them. Some would say this is due to poor servers or your poor connection, but honestly who cares if you have a 250mbs connection, it's your fault anyway.

    Let's talk a little about healing. There are no health packs, and while there are some okay-ish skills to help you heal the main emphasis on doing so is to "PlAy AgReSsIvLy". Yeah, go run-in with your nerf guns blazing if you want a quick death reset. By doing damage with a certain skill or shooting you "heal"... A very small amount, somewhat quickly, maybe... If the game feels like it. Healing is so pathetically slow that at the later tiers you can be ganked to death in less than a second. Literally stonewalled in place by a mob of copy/paste enemies on PCP who know where you are at all times and very much wish to unalive you and anyone trying to help you. Don't worry though as there is some light at the end of this tunnel, the super-diverse elite enemies almost always pick out one person on the team and ignore the others, so there's that.

    Once you beat the game that's it. You can redo some missions over or do horde mode expeditions that you need to complete in 14 min or less for actual good gear. Lol, good luck with that.

    Games nowadays are made half-hearted and rushed to be a quick money grab despite being a broken trainwreck with gameplay as appealing as lighting myself on fire and Outriders is no exception to this. Don't worry they sold it as the second coming of cyberpunk, and you, like me, were so thirsty for something to quench your desire for a good looter shooter that you looked for anything promising a good time. This game is a joke that no one is laughing at. Shame on them for releasing this broken mess of false promises, shame on me for being desperate enough to buy it. Rent it or borrow it from a mate if you can, not worth its weight in the fools gold it was painted with.    … Expand

    Now the latest patch instead of addressing the main issues the devs are more focused on nerfs seriously nerfs! For a PVE game a week into release! Who does that??

    So the latest patch has now nerfed a few things, claim to have fixed a lot of things but it's even more broken than before.
    All that loot you managed to get? Well here's a new one, latest patch has a high chance of wiping everything! Goodbye legendaries. Its happened to many including myself and the game still crashes.
    If you want a fun looter shooter go play Borderlands, this is not it.    … Expand

    We didn’t exactly see anything new in Outriders, to be honest. The game delivers a fair amount of content in terms of levels, weapons, or skills. However, from the gameplay point of view, it’s nothing more than meeting aliens, zombies and insurgents in paintball arenas for 15 straight hours, plus the expeditions.

    In two highly competitive genres, this crossbreed may go unnoticed, but its difficulty system should be taken into account. It’s advisable to embark on the campaign of this shooting RPG since Outriders offers tons of hours of fun, invites players to play with friends, and has appealing visuals. Fans of both RPGs and shooters can get a lot out of it, but they shouldn’t expect a revolutionary game, for it is a mixed bag of interesting features and cliches. Even though the journey is enjoyable, Outriders is neither a strong contender in the RPG elite nor in the shooting universe.

    Outriders is not a perfect game by any means. Its narrative, while containing some fun characters, feels somewhat underdeveloped. The conflict between the intended aggressive style of play and the omnipresent walls for cover lead to a strange kind of dissonance where the level design feels at odds with the most fun way of playing the game. The server issues are ongoing and can occasionally make the game inaccessible. The endgame is a lot of fun, but only if you’re playing in a group. When the experience is working well, it is a ton of fun shooting your way through hordes of enemies and marvelling at the latest rare gear. However, while the flaws do not ruin the experience, they are notable.
