after buying and playing the game being hyped i want to say that its not going so well... currently the game is unstable i felt like getting 40 fps in a game even though my PC is made to have games be played on high settings. first time playing the game you get like a 1 minute gameplay to learn the game, felt quite rushed to me as i learned very little. There was also a quest to kill 5 enemies wich i did however even when they died their head still were moving looking like they were still alive..

After walking around the innards or the base it tells me to collect water by doing a quest because were low on it. so i decided to check a bit more only too realize i need even more water to unlock rig customization or even weapons.

Then we open the menu to select the quest and the map for it and boom we load in with no knowledge about the game. spawn in feel like i have 40-50 fps (not bad but still i like it smooth) start going towards the middle of the map were gunfire erupts and soldiers running around, also noticed a chopper that kept looking in the same direction while it was like teleporting rather behaving like a actual helicopter.

Running around the map and i somehow managed to get to the extraction site where another fight occurs. After waiting it out i sneak in and start escorting out untill a soldier runs back to me only to shoot while i tried shooting back but having a gun with 10 bullets is not going to kill it, so i died obviously.

Second time i head in again with this time i have 2 large mechs walking around. Plus i saw a tank wich in engaged in combat untill a few seconds it glichted and flew into the air. After that i explored the deeper area where theres alot of danger but i managed to loot some dead corpses and get some loot untill i got fired at again almost died but managed to kill my enemy and fleeing to somewhere safe.

After that i decided to try to get to extraction safely and extract. upon arriving soldiers spawn right in front of me and start shooting the other enemies at the extraction site where i then sneak my way in and extract but this time i try to hide wonder what happens next? i get killed by like a cyborg dog from behind and it wasnt just one it was a pack.

Now i shared my story i want to say that the maps look beautiful and the music is great however the AI sucks and gameplay does not feel great at the moment and offcourse the unstable frames.

I highly recommend waiting for updates and improvements.
I support the devs in their product but it seemed like it needed even way more play testing.
Also iam glad its 30 bucks and not some 60 bucks game

With currently 800 hours on this game i am happy to write a review (also because of the xp iam about to get from this review) . Factorio does not go on sale (maybe in the far future) however with how polished it is and never expierenced a bug in the game it is worth the full price.

Upon playing the game i was really confused as to what to do. Ive seen factorio gameplays and there is also a guide for most basic stuff like setting up power and explaining what each things does. Looking back at my first hours i was doing well but offcourse i was mostly handcrafting in a game where automation is key. I did watch some tutorials since i struggled going towards millitary and mostly chemical science. after learning more i was getting better at rescource distribution and ratio of how many machines is needed to craft a certain amount of the end product.

In the end the progress made allong the way to perfect my mistakes really was fun and still to this day am i changing my designs to be even more efficient. Onto graphics they look really good aswell as the little machines working, the details on them are also really cool dont forget sound is also amazing. I spend most of my time playing Factorio on my intel 5 laptop and all worked fine unless i made a large base or started a offensive with spidertrons in the late game. The soundtrack fit the game really well. The enemy bugs with 2 units types and 2 building types with the nest producing biter or spitter bug meanwhile you also have a worm that acts as a tower spitting acid on you. You have different ways to defend your factory starting with gun turrets eventually getting to laser, flamethrower, spidertron and artillery.

I highly do recommend this game obviously, once again worth the full price.

Also cant wait for the DLC. A bunch of new turrets, planets, enemies, soundtracks and many more will be coming.
Apologies if this was hard to read its just i was trying to make my first review on a awesome game :)
