This game makes you uninstall your friends.

If you like a cup of LIBER-TEA, step right up!

Turrets mean free haircuts. TREASON is a standard practice.

The game is riddled with bugs! Spread DEMOCRACY to squash them.

Don't worry about central heating in your home, HELLDIVERS has you covered.

If you want to improve your finger game, this is the one for you - The girlfriend will love you.

I missed the beta but I am glad to be playing it now.. not to mention, for free!

Win or loose, this game is the most fun I’ve ever had in a long time. The game looks outstanding and runs flawlessly. I would 100% recommend playing with friends but you really don’t have to.

Can’t climb the building because you are too fat? No problem! Bring the building down to you. 10/10

This game turned me Russian, and now I can now speak it in HD!

This game set my 3070 TI on fire and forced me to go church. I have no regrets!

'I Am Jesus Christ' is one of the best games I have ever played and it has converted me forever. I am no longer an atheist and instead I am gay for Jesus. Forever on my knees for that man, his touch is wonderful.

F**ked Joseph behind Mary's back and killed Staten in the meantime.

John the Baptist did crash my game however, so doesn't quite get a perfect score from me. 9/10

I can't stop meowing! D:

Lost my girlfriend, my job and all my free time. But at least I've still got my ♥♥♥♥ rock!

Toxic Community, I love it! Be prepared for this game to take over your life, but not your virginity.

While you are in your 24k queue on an EU server here's a guide on how to make pizza dough for a delicious pizza of your choice!

Ingredients:
500g '00' flour or plain flour, plus extra for dusting
1 tsp salt
½ tsp dried yeast (not fast-action)
400ml warm water
Oil, for greasing.

STEP 1
It’s easiest to make this in a standing mixer with a dough hook (otherwise mix it in a bowl and knead on your work surface). Put the flour and salt in the bowl and mix the yeast into the water. It’s always a good idea to wait 5 mins before using the liquid to see if the yeast is working – little bits will start to rise to the top and you’ll know it’s active.

STEP 2
Turn on the motor and pour in the liquid. Keep the speed on medium-high and it should come together as a ball. If the bottom is still sticking, tip in 1-2 tbsp of flour. Knead for 5-7 mins until the dough is shiny and it springs back when you press your finger into it. (If kneading by hand, it will take you about 10 mins.) Try not to add too much flour if you can. This is a slightly sticky dough, but that keeps it light and it rises beautifully.

STEP 3
Use oiled hands to remove the dough from the hook and bowl. Oil another bowl and place the dough in it. Turn it around so that it’s lightly coated in the oil. Cover tightly with cling film and then a tea towel. Place in a draught-free area that’s warm and leave until the dough has doubled in size. If it’s a hot day, it should only take 2 hrs to rise, but it could take 4 hrs if it’s cold. (If you don’t plan to use the dough for a day or two, place it in the fridge straight away; take it out 3-4 hrs before using. Punch it down first and bring it together on a floured surface.)

STEP 4
Divide the dough into 2 pieces for big pizzas or 4 for plate-sized ones, then shape into balls (see Shaping the dough in tips, below) – dust them in flour as they will be sticky. Keep them covered with a tea towel or cling film while you prepare the toppings. (you can also freeze them in sealed bags. Just thaw in the fridge on the day, then bring to room temperature 3 hrs before using.)

STEP 5
To shape the dough: If you want to get air pockets and a light but crisp dough, then don’t use a rolling pin. It flattens and pops the air bubbles. (Two days in the fridge will produce the most air bubbles – take it out three to four hours before using.) If your dough is at room temperature, you can use your fingers to gently stretch the dough out. Once it’s about 16cm, place the disc over the tops of your hands (not palm side) and use them to stretch it further, up to about 25cm. You can start pressing out the other discs, then wait to do the final bit when you’re ready to cook. Once you’ve mastered stretching the dough out, you can experiment with other shapes: rectangles, rounds or squares all look authentic.

STEP 6
To cook the pizza: An outdoor gas barbecue is best for controlling the temperature, but charcoal will give your pizza a more authentic, smoky flavour. For gas, turn the flames down to medium-low so that the bottom of the pizza doesn't burn. When cooking on a charcoal barbecue, let the coals turn grey before you pop on the pizza.

STEP 7
Place the pizza on a floured baking sheet (with no edge) or a pizza peel – this is a flat pizza paddle with a long handle, which makes it easier to get the dough on and off the grill. The flour will provide the 'wheels' for it to slide onto the grill – don’t use oil as it sticks more and won’t transfer as well.

STEP 8
Make sure the grill is hot and the flames have died back if cooking on charcoal. Slide the dough onto the grill, close the lid (if your barbecue has one) and give it three to four minutes. The dough will puff up; it's ready when the bottom has light brown stripes. Use tongs to pull the dough off and turn it upside down.

STEP 9
Assemble the pizza of your choice – see 'Goes well with', right, for topping suggestions. Remember that less is more, as the dough will stay crisper and the toppings will cook better.

STEP 10
Place the pizza back on the grill, uncooked-side down, and shut the lid. Give it another three to four minutes, then remove when the cheese is melted and the toppings are hot.

If your queue is still not over you may be obligated to go to the pub for a couple of hours!

If you are looking for an honest review and not something biased in order to conclude your decision on buying this game then you are in the right place!

From a player who downloaded the beta and hated it, I waited over a month before I went ahead and bought the full game. The more I watched gameplay the more I really wanted to give this game another chance and I honestly don't regret it one bit. The reason to why I think I hated the beta is because there wasn't much for me to do and it was quite broken already.

I'm at the point where I've played 100 hours now which is the point I usually say you know if you like a game or not. For me I truly believe there is a lot of potential, but if you are looking for something with a lot of depth in it's story and quest line definitely not for you. I'll go ahead and list some of the pros and cons because there is still a lot with this game that needs to be changed, worked on and added.

Pros:
- Crafting systems are quite unique and in depth, very easy to use and fun to level up in my opinion. There's a variety of different workstations for different professions in towns.
- Housing is quite creative, you can decorate your own space once buying the property, although it would be nice to see a few more different house designs.
- Sound design is something I've never seen to this level before, hearing the cracks of the trees as they fall around you in the world real time from other players. The sound of birds fluttering away, animals roaring and the sound of the pick-axe piercing the rock from across the field. I honestly rate the sound design as one of the best I've ever seen in any game.
- The world is beautiful, the sun rays shining through the tree branches as it sets. The moonlight reflecting off the water creating an earie atmosphere. Volumetric fog from the swamps setting a creepy tone. Almost reminds me of the Division graphics engine (not sure what engine it uses).
- A variety of dungeons to work through, every one being quite unique. Bosses also have mechanics, some being quite challenging involving team efforts.
- A good selection of different weapons to use, one for every play style at least without restrictions.
- Invasions & wars are quite fun and add a cool dynamic to the game because your area could be taken over any day.
- Weapon and player progression feels quite smooth, not too fast and not too slow.
- You don't have to just quest to level up, you get good experience through crafting and project boards.
- A variety of different armour pieces with a selection of different perks to build your own character dynamic.
- The ability to spec your character into gathering making it more profitable for yourself if you are dedicated.
- The map is quite big and the zones are vastly different in each area (I've still not been everywhere yet).
- Combat is fairly straight forward but works pretty well although I do have a couple of gripes which will be in the cons section.

Cons:
- Questing is quite shallow. Quests tend to be one of four different objectives and don't really have much meaning to them. It feels quite repetitive. Not to mention most the time its 'talk to one guy then run to the other side of the map to talk to another then return all the way back with no real meaning'.
- Economy isn't the best. I'm worried that if a server does start to die off it will heavily impact the player experience since settlements are heavily reliant on the economy and player interaction. What I mean by this is projects need to be started by the controlling company in a settlement to get higher tier workstations and if you don't have them you wont be able to craft anything you need.
- There are still a lot of bugs because its Amazons first MMO but they do tend to get patched quite quickly. The problem is a lot of the time key features will be disabled while they are sorted out.
- A shortage in enemy types.
- The fact that one person in the controlling company of a settlement has the ability to raise taxes to the highest level meaning this heavily impacts the player experience in a negative sense is dangerous and results in easy trolling.
- Corruptions around the map feel a bit meaningless.
- Combat sometimes feels clunky, you will get hit around and it feels like lag when its actually player collision.

Unfortunately I cant comment on the PvP as of yet due to not being at the correct level which I will add to the cons list. I find it quite sad that there isn't a mode for any level character to enter the PvP grounds. The only PvP I can get is the open world if the other person is flagged.

Overall New World has a lot of problems it needs to solve, but its also doing a lot of things right. There's HUGE potential for this game with upcoming expansions and so much they can do to add to this game. I do imagine this game to release as paid expansions due to it not being subscription based which I'm fine with, but for £45 I'm happy with this game!

IMPORTANT: I would like to say if you do buy this game, please take some time to choose the server & world set you want to play on as player counts will heavily affect your gameplay experience good and bad, and if you are playing with friends it will be best to pick the same faction although you don't have too.
