Deserts of Kharak is a well made sequel to Homeworld - tactic and RTS fans get their money's worth
Deserts of Kharak is a well made sequel to Homeworld - tactic and RTS fans get their money's worth. Since I was fortunate enough to participate in the beta test I have played long enough to give you my review. Story

Frustrating more than fun
((UPDATE: This bug has -apparently- been fixed finally according to todays patch notes, so I w ill consider changing this review once I can finally try the game again to beat it.)) I want to reccomend this game, ..But a year ago, I reported a major game breaking bug, that -several- people were encountering, Mission 4, If you kill a production unit, while it is just about, or even finishing a unit, it will create an un-killable unit, that you can not hurt, can not interact with, and your own vehicles can't run into it, -however- the game thinks it is alive, and therefore you -can not beat the mission- and yet, Here it is a year later, and apparently the bug was never fixed, and people are -still- encountering the very bug that I posted a year ago, even in the same place and circumstances..... So I think the company kind of sold this and then left it...without fixes to game breaking bugs. I have seen reports of similar bugs appearing also on MIssion 5, and other levels it seems.

The added Epic Online Service and forced online play have completely destroyed the game!
The added Epic Online Service and forced online play have completely destroyed the game! When I purchased this game, it didn't require an internet connection or any third-party services. Now, being offline renders it unplayable, and on top of that, it forces the download of a third-party service. This is a form of deception! I refuse to be held hostage by these unnecessary changes. The developers have completely disregarded the player base that built this game up, and it's a slap in the face of loyal fans. I demand the option to play offline, as I originally intended when I purchased this game. If this hateful behavior continues, count me out of any future releases from this developer. Shame on you for betraying your players' trust like this.
