Andromeda: Rebirth of Humanity

It has great potential, ftp and not ptw (unless you go hardcore PvP), but the UI is really poor. For instance: to see the list of your trades you have to click 1. storage - 2. any item - 3. open bazaar - 4. view my listings. (and that's assuming you're at the home page where you can even see the storage button). That's a 4 level tab tree. No game should have a 4 level tab tree. Worse yet, often when you finish a task on a window, but want to do something on the previous window, you have to close all the windows and then go back down the tab tree to that 3rd level window. It can be 5-6 clicks just to get back 1 window. Say you want to re-configure your 12 ship fleet each with 5-6 components and every time you change 1 component on 1 ship you have to click 4-5 times. 12x5x5 = 300 clicks! To the developer: All you really have to do to fix the UI is consolidate many of the windows and add a back and forward button like a web browser for navigating them. The back and forward button would be the best way to make it more user friendly without much programming. People dislike reading guides & wikis until after they have decided to regularly play the game and I didn't see a menu tree guide anyway. Back and forward buttons allow much easier learning of the windows. As it is, I had a very hard time remembering under which tab tree I saw a particular menu & once I found it I then had a hard time finding where I was before. Back and forward buttons would allow us to simply keep going back until we found it. We could then go forward to whatever we were doing before. The fewer mouse clicks a person has to do to accomplish a task, the better. Currently, the amount of information and usefulness for each window is simply too little so there are too many windows under 3+ levels of tab trees AND those tabs are not always in a row or column, sometimes they can be anywhere on the screen so it often forces us to move our cursor from one side of the screen to the other just to switch tabs. The game does have bugs too. I have a leader I spent a ton of experience on and she's lost in the ether - visible, but unusable. Edit: The developer fixed this bug at my request. Edit 2: The UI and combat is just too clunky and tedious for my taste so I uninstalled the game.

It's a fun 4x lite kind of game, I enjoy that theres enough to keep me occupied in setting up production and planets without becoming too overbearing or restrictive like stellaris. There is player market and looks like most things can be traded there or directly with a friend. The UI is pretty rough, for example the star map scrolls painfully slow and the missions that serve as a kind of tutorial should be placed front and center so dummies like me can't miss it. The combat is kind of simple, and I wish there was more interactivity or something to actually play with my friends instead of alongside them but it's free and I've enjoyed my time so far these are really the only complaints I have now. Also the dev seems to be really involved with the community and is very on top of fixing stuff, that's been a refreshing change from what I'm used to elsewhere.

this game has potential but in its current state its basically unplayable on an end game scale. massive game breaking bugs are a regular thing. there are no in game moderators what so ever so aside from automated suspensions for too many accounts there is virtually no check on the toxic behavior of the player base. pvp is drastically slanted to the defender and taking over a full system for a single person can take weeks and the defender can just instantly populate other planets. players can run full pvp fleets from a protected set of starter systems so there is no way to really cripple your opponents and the end game combat is lacking in any sort of diversity. maybe in a decade it will be playable but after over a thousand hours playing this game i must say that i am truly disappoint.

Game can not be played as is with the mechanics as is. Forces you to play pvp with a disproportionate gap in players. Community just waits for new players to do the work and then take it, all while you are trying to finish the plot.

I don't mind that the game takes a long time. I like games like this. Usually the queues continue to run while you sleep, but this game stops when you shut it off, so you have to leave it running while not much is going on. This is a good game, but I'm not going to burn out my computer for it.

Андромеда: Перерождение Человечества — ММОшка космическая. Игрушка чем-то похожа на возможное внебрачное дитё от Eve Online и Sin of a Solar Empire, только очень инди, выглядящая очень старо (и это не в плане закоса под ретро, а в плане устаревшего UI) при этом с сильно замороченными механиками, в которых углубляться и углубляться. Плюсы: ✓ механик довольно много, для гиков и любителей вникать в это дело. ✓ за деньги можно купить косметику, но вложить 100500 баксов и стать грозой сервера тут нельзя. Это радует, а то как ни запусти ныне что-то онлайновое, так везде рулят донаторы. ✓ разраб часто выпускает апдейты (на момент обзора). Минусы: − UI просто вырвиглазное. На это даже смотреть больно. − обратная сторона плюса с механиками. Их много, и надо довольно сильно вникать чтобы в них разобраться. − очень много гринда, очень… Как итог: тут нехватает среднего пальца для оценки. С одной стороны все не так плохо и разраб старается, с другой стороны игра ну очень нишевая. Да и на серверах есть по 10-15 человек, редко больше, что уже как бы намекает (хотя возможно я в другое время её не запускал, хз). В общем по своему интересный курьез, но рекомендовать не возьмусь. Как-то так. 5 перерождений из 10 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1276831459 [i]P.s: если этот обзор был для Вас полезен ставьте лайк, а также добавляйтесь в друзья и подписывайтесь на меня как куратора - [url=http://store.steampowered.com/curator/28776273/] Обзоры онлайн [/url][/i]

Game has potential;however, the UI in its current state is very difficult to use. There is no tutorial. The game is a long term builder and battler. Would love to see a better way to control your assets and potentially protect them for at least a week before being attacked by other, stronger players. Nature of the game as is.

Normally I used to complain about crowded UI with small text or controls... welll... this game exactly the opposite: damn big UI elements (probably due the mobile support), what is just as bad as the crowded UI screen - just in the opposite way. The game might be good (altough I saw nothing groundbreaking what I saw in other mobile games - build this, built that, wait for timers, wait for resource collection etc) - but usability is terrible, I gave up after 30 minutes. Message to the DEV: I think you should decide if you want to make a mobile game or a PC one and adjust the UI accordingly. Trying to satisfy both worlds with the same UI results bad experience on both platforms.
