Azulgar: Star Commanders

This is not a game. It is a unity tech demo with a 20 dollar price tag. I appreciate that they tried to do a complete reboot. I really do. Except that their 'updates' left it in a state where, basically, all you can do is fly around, smash into things, and respawn. No weapons. No enemies. no game. No regular developer updates. Until they get the actual basics working on this, it is vaporware. I have been patient. I understand 'early alpha'. I get that they tried to reboot. But right now, this 'game' should not even be on steam... It's a nothing with some pretty star graphics. If I could, I would demand my money back. It's not even in the barely-playable state that it was before the reboot.

Abandonware, do not buy. loaded up the game to play and instantly you click play, the game goes into a crashed loop. Checked the forum this has been known about for over a year, the developers fix isnt a patch to make the game playable but to give you a link to download files and then you have to find where to put them. This is unexceptable you have known about this problem for over a year. Patch the bloody game, How dare you charge £10 for this broken piece of ♥♥♥♥.

No communication with the Steam community in over 3 months. Their own forum is completely inactive (http://www.forum.lusorion.com). A vague promise that "we're workng on it" back sometime in May. Looks like a dead'un. Keep your money.

Why have you released this game in its current form.. its been 6 months and you've only managed to make the game worse. DON'T RELEASE A GAME IF YOU HAVENT EVEN GOT THE BASICS WORKING YET... yet this is the norm now.. shells of a game being released and never getting updated..

Where to start with this one, Azulgar: star commanders boasts itself as Quote: "sci-fi action oriented sandbox roleplaying game with FPS elements". is it sci-fi? yes... but it is more 'fi' then 'sci'. the ships act like there is drag slowing it down. so no getting up to speed and then coast along. no you have to keep holding the forward button to keep moving. so if you are on a keyboard like I am, I hope you have a small piece of lead or brass to weigh down your W key because getting anywhere will take a while. is it action? No... no it is not. the ship I started with has no weapons, and the ship I started with was already at half health. after dying once I managed to get to a shipyard to tinker with it. no weaponry to choose from there. The only way this game is 'action' is by the simplest definition; press key, which is an 'action', stuff happens. is it a sandbox? Yes it is. but unlike the Real life box in the ground with play sand in it, you won't be building any significant sand castles or cool stuff with the 'ship editor' that this game sports to and I quote "Build huge ships or small fighters". more on the Editor later. Is it a Roleplaying game? No, not that I can see. From what limited I could see and do, there is no real role to play. space is dotted with asteroids, dust clouds that drain your power generation and will slowly widdle away at your hull for no reason, some debries from stations or ships and stations themselves. regardless of that I don't see any roleplaying elements in sight. no player development of any kind. expend your ship design at a shipyard maybe but nothing else. Does it have FPS elements? No it does not. FPS an acronym for First Person Shooter (or Frames Per Second, but we are talking about a game element not game performance here). meaning any game in which you are looking through the eyes of your virtual reprisentation, and primarily shooting enemies that come your way. the Afformention description is the definition of the FPS genre. This game has only a 3rd person view as far as I know. and you are only flying a ship. no possibility to jump out. The Editor? The ship editor is very limited. no controls for rotating parts and placing them where and how I actually want them. you can put on symmetry mode and apply some paints. but everything on your ship is surface mounted by way of surface dragging. meaning everything you place will be on top of the hull itself. even if your hull parts are larger then the cockpit unit or even smaller then your engine nozzle. an as mention, there is no rotating parts. the actual rotation is applied by the game whenever it feels like it. most of the time the orientation of say a extra wing part is such that it ends up looking like a scoop of a bulldozer. Configuration options themselves are also severely lacking. going onto the config menu for controls, nothing is listed but mouse sensitivity and 1 axis inversion. so even if there was a button for targeting, firing weapons and rotating ship parts. I won't be able to tell what they are as the controls configuration menu is blank. there is a 'press F1 for help' but that gives even less information as to what the controls are. Oh and on the storage page the game boasts multiplayer, don't hold your breath on that to tide you over as the option is grayed out in the main menu. In other words, not implimented. and even if it was, the best you can do is knock into eachother like bumper cars at the fair as there are no weapons in game. and as far as the single player goes, space is dead. dead in the fact that there are some stations dotted around with some visual wreckage, but there is no actual activity. no other ships flying around to make it interesting. Final verdict; I'm sending in a refund.

Completely broken for me. In it's current state, almost everything is locked (not playable). I go to start a singleplayer game, which is the only thing it let's me do, and I just start exploding as soon as I spawn. Constantly, every second I die. The game is unplayable. Waste of money. Also UI doesn't support 4k. Seems like a load of false advertising as far as what is and isn't playable...

It's difficult to like since it doesn't really look like on the Store page. You get dropped in-game with no idea what to actually do or how to actually play.

Azulgar: Star Commanders cons: lack of directions. gameplay becomes uninteresting after a few minutes. sucks.

after 1 hours only fly to refuel and harvest modules in space i leave game fly from one station to another is total bored and long. refuel at station is terrible long. space is super empty 1 hours and i dont see any enemy or mineable asteroid or any interest object my ship havent any weapons or other system .and after i colect 30 loot box from space i have only reactors ,structure ,thusters. building ship/upgrade is ONE big chaos cant rotate modules manual etc.u cant build what u need. fly eat enormous fuel :( i use jump to another system 10x and still same total empty space only boxes adn stations :( when i read what game offer and after 1 hour in game i THINK i play different game i DONT see any what i read before buy.

Azulgar Star Commanders ist vermutlich ein 3D Shoot'em Up mit SciFi Setting. Allerdings ist das zur Zeit schwer zu sagen, das Spiel ist im Early Access Status und noch ein gutes Stück entfernt von spielbarem Spiel. Zur Zeit ist das mehr eine sehr frühe Alpha/Techdemo. Was man sehen kann ist ein Raumstation/Schiffs Editor und einen kleinen Ausschnitt des zukünftig spielbaren Bereichs, daran kann man erkennen das das Spiel auf einen Cel-Shading Filter setzt um die bekannten Unity-Schwächen zu überdecken. Grundsätzlich sieht das interessant aus, ich werde in Zukunft wieder ins Spiel schauen um zu beobachten wie es sich entwickelt. Zur Zeit kann ich das Spiel allerdings nur empfehlen, wenn man mit seinem Geld die Entwicklung unterstützen möchte, spielen kann man noch nichts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjGXqtVjmeg
