I regret my buy however I am choosing to stick around because the developer seems active... here is why i do not recommend in its current state

I have a perfectly fine rig I run ARMA 3 on top settings with great fps. So i found this game is impossible to go into late game. Basically I said whatever and went and had dinner and did a few things left the game running. I came back to roughly the same amount of population just tons of money and resources. however the game was so laggy at this point i couldnt run in 5x any more and basically the more you continue to expand your cities the less you are able to play....Up until i noticed the performance issue i loved the game seemed like banished 2

I will be watching closely for updates and if this is fixed i will come back and im sure put hundreds of hours into the game. please fix this

Okay so i have probably around 2000 hours maybe more, i played long long long before steam ever had anything to do with it and the developer was rather mysterious to most of us hed kinda dip in and out and we would always be wondering if he decided to leave it behind but it was always his return project and he didnt ask for pay but donations if you could. I was so happy when i returned from my 6 year hiatus from pc gaming to see it alive and strong and even on steam. i probably wont play it much on steam cause i find it hard to grasp gaming much anymore at the level i used to but this game lives on in my memories as one of the best games ive ever played. even back when it was bare bones and we had to report even the most minute of bugs and such to the forums and we knew by the time we came back round to the game it would likely have been fixed. its rare to find a game that continues development for decades and its so fun to look through all the updates. and see the stuff added. as small as it may seem to most these updates mean a lot to us who have long played the game.... i could describe it similar to knowing someone and seeing them go from infant to adult. Not knowing what to expect hoping for the best and checking in every now and then to see where its at.

all love to this game and developer. hope a new generation can enjoy this like we did back then

im enjoying it so far, though it still has a way to go before i can give a final verdict, i still want to see more content and such mainly mods are going to make this game like its predecessor... people will be playing it for a decade like they did warband

OH GOD, why would the developer ever remind me of that horrible george clooney movie with his name, however i am going to give this game a second go, played it years ago when i was super into another game and couldnt really focus or even bother with anything but. Soooooooo, creator your name is annoying, but I still wanna give this game a go.

As an officer in training i was hoping for something a little more, some game progression, skills and stats, some more unique interactions, I would have prefered the game more optimized as well, It runs like crap on my computer and its actually a top of the line alienware. SO i know its not me, its just the game and i think the main issue might be that I needed to drop some certain aspects but it just was a little difficult to enjoy when the lag died down a bit, If i could use my money for something id love that and if i could develop my status from a lower level officer to highest having officers at my command, It would also be nice if there were other officers in the game, rather than just calling one we should have others that could be closer to the call so they take it and you have to just provide backup, resulting in a non arrest and less points since it wasnt credited to you. We should have a better dispatcher that can update us on last known position, the plan of action, meaning they tell us how we should handle the situation for certain circumstances, for example we are chasing a joyrider and they have passengers, some "looking to be youth" so you cant shoot at the vehicle, cant run it off the road or put it in any great danger, having to call cps or something for the kids to be picked up. also backup when you are stopping a vehicle would be awesome, generally we arent allowed to engage in a heavy pursuit unless we have backup, generally we want 2 vehicles in use when we are neutralizing a suspect vehicle. Otherwise we generally follow them and call in state and county lines to continue the pursuit. However we will enact neutralization of a vehicle with passengers and sometimes children if we are in a highly populated area and passing through a lesser populated area, so as to maintain collateral damage, generally this will be an area under development, a small passing of fields, or rural roads, generally we arent comfortable with places that could seriously harm specific individuals, those individuals mainly are children, government and medical centers, and large population areas where its very easy to hit civilians, to which we are generally consented (willing and uncomfortable to do otherwise) to slow down and just maintain pursuit, we rarely attempt to stop someone by cockpit maneuver in a populated area or anywhere of high traffic like an interstate, generally we will maintain close distance, meaning we look for any chance to continue pursuit but we do not put lives in danger and generally doing so can end your chance of a tactical vehicle neutralization. We generally just keep a heli on until we can find their position and cut them off.

I am not sure what happened here but the game took over half an hour to load in after retrying several times, when i dropped everything to low which looked like a 90s graphic game it finally loaded in, when it did so it was choppy not actually letting me do anything, I can play and run arma 3 just fine which require high cpu and a strong graphic card, this game looked like maybe a simulated police version of gta vice city and would barely run, i requested a refund, wont be trying this ♥♥♥♥ again, i even downloaded it onto my super computer which i refuse to use due to a back problem but it ran slightly better at the same exact settings, not what i signed up for, done with this going to refund

Amazing game, teaches you more than any other game, if you ever heard someone say "its not rocket science" this game will make that phrase make sense.

Great game.... Just missing one thing

A MODDING COMMUNITY

This gametype is famous for its modding community, look at freelancer, ♥♥♥♥ is still running hot because new mods keep it going, Mods also breath new life into the game as you could make the solar systems look nice rather than dull and non distictive, with 50 hours in I feel there should be more content and modding would satisfy that. The developers though do not want to release tools to mod the game, i imagine they will in the future go ahead and release some tools but it seems like knowing this type of game and the community that follows it would want to use that population boost to get the game a bit more known and possibly forever added to the list of best space combat games.

Recommend it, worth every penny

First off, I'd like to state I have probably an additional 1000+ hours on this game from before my steam purchase, I had not seen this game for many years and when i found it, dived right back into it.

Okay so what gives this game some of its bad nanme is at first its hard to figure out exactly what to do, but after some time it becomes a lot of fun. Most people shy away when they cannot get more than 9 knights, but you REALLY dont hardly need that many. Its very easy to overcome the issues you get (too much land not enough marshalls, too many marshalls not enough merchants) Workshop does not work but there are some old mods that make the game better.

This is the ONLY grand strat ive ever come back to over and over. Worth every penny.

Yup, crash every time i try to get on, was waiting to refund it but a game released this bugged will need a few months to get into working order, gunna get bo3 till this ♥♥♥♥ is fixed
