6About Guns of Icarus Online
Guns of Icarus Online is the original PvP steampunk airship combat game that laid the groundwork for the expanded Guns of Icarus experience, Guns of Icarus Alliance. Slip the surly bonds of earth and take to the skies as a bold Captain, fearless Gunner, or cunning Engineer. Raising the stakes on team-based PvP combat with an emphasis on strategic competition and team play, Guns of Icarus Online is all about teamwork, tactics, and fast-paced action. With a good ship and the right crew, you can conquer the skies! A vivid steampunk world . Lumbering, heavily-armored airships bristling with guns patrol the skies above a land ravaged beyond repair by an out-of-control industrial revolution. . Build your own airship . Starting from a selection of basic hulls, players can mix and match hundreds of custom parts to create their own unique airship, then assemble a crew to fly it. . Your ship is your life . Your ship is your collective life bar - when the ship goes down, the crew goes down with it.

This review is long over-due
This review is long over-due Why Guns was worth a Try. It was a game of two halves, "lobby's of Icarus" and "Guns of Icarus". Both modes were worth playing. My hours consist of both modes, but mostly lobby There are 100's of customizations for the ships and your player from the workshop. Dyes & hats can be unlocked as you progress. Game modes; King Of The Hill, Crazy King, Death-Match. Guns of Icarus was the most socially intensive game out there. Where "Team-work was King and communication was key". GOIO Player-Base was Small and incredibly friendly. Some taught the "Scrubs" (new-players) as often as they could with no thanks. Roles are an Engineer (my main class), pilot or a gunner (least important class (imo) only needed for ammo and gun arc buffs) on-board any airship; from a Speedy Squid to the Slowest Pyramidion or the Multi-Manticore Hwacha Galleon. Doing Battle against other airships for control of resource points (Crazy King), or the total destruction of the enemy team in DeathMatch. It is brutal, there will be salt, you will have commands barked at you, it is nothing personal. "REPAIR the HULL!" But the Satisfaction Can always be heard come match end. A good Captain will always pass round the virtual Bottle of "Seppuku-Das Moonshine" comments in crew "how did we pull that off? That was F***** Amazing! Are common-place after a good match. Every match ends with "Good-Sportsmanship" the victors congratulate the losers and some of us offer a Rematch. Update: The best comment will be gifted a copy of Guns Of Icarus if you don't have it. or a little something something 3 copies gifted so Far. 1 more Collectors edition will be gifted 22nd December. 1 more copy gifted during the promotion.

How could I possibly summarise over 2000 hours of gameplay into a review?
How could I possibly summarise over 2000 hours of gameplay into a review? I think it's the teamwork aspect that creates the social aspect of this game that doesn't exist anywhere else along with the depth in strategy created by the ship designs that keep this game fresh. Also, the mine launcher. I'll try to remember to update this review when I hit 3000 hours.
