Wait for performance patches. Right now FPS is all over the place.

Fun with friends

Steam awards told me to do it.

If you expected GRID from back in 2008 then you are in for a disappointing ride. This is a $15 game wrapped up neatly in a $60 package. All the great aspects of what made GRID 2008 great has been removed, and you have a very very limited amounts of tracks to drive with not a lot of vehicle options.

And even after you grinded out the money needed for that car you wanted, it's just going to force you to use your starter car in the newer races when you are in the same category line and sometimes you are lucky and you get to use your nice new fast car.

40min+ waiting times for queuing ourside the EU. Not worth it unless you stay in a first world. Thousands are shown as playing in the bracket you choose, but you just never get a game.

Was fun while it lasted. But it's a giant waste of time queuing with friends on local servers.

Edit: (1 month later) Turning this to a negative review until we get steam login back and bite rates are fixed.

For now I will recommend this game due to the fact that I have spent a couple hundred of hours in the game before the steam release.

BUT!
A big but to start. Don't expect this game to be like other fishing games you have played. You will sometimes go for hours catching very little fish, and other times the fish are just flying onto your bait.

The grind is intense and the little silver you make each day will be gobbled up by repair costs when you get to mid game (lvl 20+) and when you get end game reels you can kiss your silver goodbye forever thanks to the insane repair costs on the Mayor and Everest.

You will grind for weeks/months just to get 1 basic feeder setup that can handle bigger fish like carp and sturgeon, and you need 3 of them.

(As an extra bonus you get to wait hours (real time hours) without logging out of the game to repair a reel or rod or else the repair timer pauses)

As for premium currency (gold), even with the current 75% off sale it is still ludicrously expensive and the sale on premium still costs more than playing the biggest pay to play MMO's out there.

The forums are also a serious mess and headache to navigate since everything is thrown into the same title and you need to sift for hours to find people who are ignored asking legitimate questions about changes that were not stated in the patch notes. So rather just stick to steam discussion board.

So after all the hoohaa about my opinion. This game is still pretty enjoyable for loads of hours, it's only now thanks to the stupidly high repair costs on my big reels that I feel the fun is sucked out from constant stress about if I will be able to afford all the repairs, and how long I need to grind for silver to pay my repairs instead of just logging in and enjoying the game I spent hundreds of hours in to buy my good equipment.

Sure it's fun... after the 10 min loading in time and then 10 more minutes to change server again and again until you find a server with minimum A holes in it so you can at least try a mission before all the servers bomb out.

10/10 Loading screen simulator

Bring your friends for a fun filled night of telling everyone what ads you are seeing in the loading screen.

Dis kak!

2018 Update:

Dis nogsteeds kak

Stardew is love Stardew is life.

10/10

Would buy 3 copies again.

Still the best 2018.

No dedicated servers and the same graphics we had in Black Ops that came out in 2010.
One would think a rich franchise like COD would have enough pocket change by now to roll out dedicated servers.

Plays OK. Looks terrible. Lag like crazy when the host is not close to you.

For a AAA game trying to compete with current 2017 quality FPS shooters it's pretty much a joke.
