Early Access Games

[something daft already!!]

Do you play them?

I accidentally bought one the other week, Assetto Corsa Competizione. I didn't realise at first it was on early access.

The game is playable with some tracks but there is no actual game there as such. You can do online races but I am finding my wheel is not supported and I cant set a deadzone for my xbox controller so it is pretty much unplayable. Steering is almost impossible and I just end up going to circles on the spot lol. I cant play this as it stands.

So my question is, do you feel that early access games worth the bother?

My experience says not.

Not sure, it's £30 so probably not.

 

[something daft already!!]

why did you pay £30 when its only £18 on cdkeys? even cheaper when I bought it, $19.

I did buy off CDkeys, I was just quoting the Steam price. I do usually feel slightly dirty when buying from them.

In VR it looks horrible and blocky. It's unplayable without a wheel and my wheel is not compatible. Hardly an auspicious start.

Yes I do but only if someone I know has personally recommended them.

If not then you should have checked youtube videos, etc.

Your own fault really.

I never thought otherwise but thanks for letting me know.

Nonsense bro. Check out the Rise of the Robots reviews for a nice sample of the bull-poo that used to go on.

95% from one Amiga magazine, 90% from another...... and 5% from the legendary Amiga Power. Guess which was most accurate?

Wow that was a dreadful "Game"
I remember it well.

You could also say that you don't eat raw chicken casserole, until it is fully cooked.

Pretty much the entire first and second seasons of Star Trek TNG were dreadful. It picked up in the third and forth then got poor again. Probably due to be watered down by DS9.
