Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
50 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you want to play this game alone with smaller vehicles, it's fantastic. 99% of the time, you can actually build anything you can think of because the sandbox building is so complex and deep.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I bought this game hoping for a cool co-op experience with friends, just like they promised in the trailers.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The learning curve is steep, and new players should expect to spend a significant amount of time learning how everything works.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game runs very well on older hardware and all other aspects (as in lighting, effects, etc) are really good.
