Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Optimization and graphics options are slightly lacking and my 1050 card can sometimes struggle, but such is expected in early access.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
It remains a quite pretty but is more like a technical demo or walking simulator than having much real gameplay.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Servers and matchmaking
Players who bring up Servers and matchmaking mostly praise it.
So if you dont know "what to do" you mostly end up exploring a bit or just wait in the base...or just log off and come back later if you play on a online community server (so yea, you learn also stuff if youre not playing if youre on a community server).

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
The simulated battles are the most exciting part but it doesn't mention you can play these co-op.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Optimization
Players who bring up Optimization mostly praise it.
-Poorly optimized explosion effects causing matches to grind to a halt regardless of computer specifications.
