"DawnOfCombat" is a very weak, badly made 2D top down Vampire Survivors ripoff, with a perfect match of terrible graphics and terrible gameplay. There's an element of Vampire Survivoresque progression, too, but stats show nobody bothered to play it long enough to progress. The developers abandoned this around 9 (edit: 10) months ago. It will never be completed. This unfinished game is just polluting Steam and making it harder for gamers to find genuinely, completely made games. This features really godawful, lazy pixelcrap "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter. What matters is that this looks bad because of that decision, and that's a major deterrent to gamers. Games like Terraria and Stardew Valley succeeded [i]despite[/i] the bad graphics, not because of them. Not every "free" game really is. There's often MTX, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of things that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrates a developers belief in themselves and their work than giving it away without any remuneration. This is a service to themselves, and the gaming industry, and should be applauded. Of course, just because something is free, doesn't necessarily mean it's valuable. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 4 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Nope. This isn't worth downloading. While this didn't cost me any money up front, I still feel ripped off. [quote][url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/reviews]Developer Response![/url][/quote]The developer has weighed in to inform everyone they didn't read the [url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/reviews]Developer Usage Rules[/url] for Steam "partners", or they deliberately ignored the part where Valve says: [quote]Though it may be tempting, not every review needs to be responded to. A developer response will frequently draw more attention than the original statement, potentially turning a small issue into a much larger community discussion. It's also not a good idea to use this feature to refute customer opinions. Your direct attention can be seen as validation or a defensive attempt to silence your customers.[/quote] The developer makes the spurious claim that this Early Access project is not abandoned. The developer made a commitment under the terms of Valve's Early Access programme to publish the game, and I'll quote the developer directly here, [i]“Expected to last half a year”[/i]. If the developer had acted in good faith, the game would have been completed in April of 2024. It's now December of 2024 yet [i]the game is not complete.[/i] The developer simply cannot be trusted, you can see, and the evidence is right there, that they've mislead gamers and broken their commitments previously. Now we're expected to trust them a second time? Gamers, I've given you the evidence, as always, you be the judge. The developer claims this is their first time trying to make a game. If I went to a restaurant, got sick from eating bad food, and got told "The chef is new and has never cooked food before", would that make it okay? No, it wouldn't. The developer supplied a very valid reason why this should never have been put up on Steam in the first place. The developer admits they didn't hire a team of talented staff to produce the game and tried to do the whole thing on their own, instead, and not even full time. This is a lot like boarding an airplane, and halfway through the flight, having the pilot come out and serve peanuts, because flying airplanes is not actually his job. It's going to end in disaster. It requires a team of competent people to do a complex job properly, and that's not what has happened here... another explanation for the poor quality of this game. The developer has made it quite clear he's the main character... at no point in the development, design or publishing process did they consider if any of this would be good for gamers. It's never entered their mind. When developers, especially amateur ones without the skill or talent to ever be hired as professional developers and work in the industry put themselves and their ego before gamers, disastrous train wrecks like "DawnOfCombat" are the inevitable result. Nothing in the developers pointless breach of Valve guidelines changes any of the objective facts of my review. My review stands unaltered. I cannot recommend this game to anyone.

To switch to english press escape then the middle button, then click english. It's free, try it out. It isn't that great tho, if this cost money I wouldn't reccomend it. But I have to commend the devs for making a survivors game free, I feel like they should all be free, there is so many of them and they are practically the same. Really needs a dash mechanic and more meta progress. Right now the meta progress is just unlocking other modules, and there isn't that many to unlock, I could see it only taking a day the "beat" this game. Then again it's EA still, so maybe they are adding skill trees and meta upgrades idk. 5/10
Ücretsizdir, deneyin. O kadar da iyi değil ama eğer bu paraya mal olursa tavsiye etmem. Ancak hayatta kalanların oyununu bedava yaptıkları için geliştiricileri takdir etmeliyim, hepsinin ücretsiz olması gerektiğini düşünüyorum, onlardan çok var ve neredeyse aynılar. Gerçekten bir çizgi mekaniğine ve daha fazla meta ilerlemesine ihtiyacı var. Şu anda meta ilerlemesi sadece diğer modüllerin kilidini açmakla ilgili ve kilidi açılacak çok fazla şey yok, bu oyunu "yenmenin" yalnızca bir gün sürdüğünü görebiliyordum. Öte yandan yine EA var, bu yüzden belki beceri ağaçları ve meta yükseltmeleri ekliyorlardır bilmiyorum.

Игра DawnOfCombat – это захватывающая и динамичная стратегия в реальном времени, которая предлагает интересный взгляд на жанр. Мне особенно понравилась глубокая система развития базы и войск, а также разнообразие тактических возможностей, которые открываются по мере продвижения. Графика хоть и не самая передовая, но приятная и функциональная, позволяющая легко ориентироваться на поле боя. Игровой процесс требует не только быстрого мышления, но и стратегического планирования. Нужно умело управлять ресурсами, вовремя исследовать новые технологии и адаптироваться к действиям противника. Мультиплеер приносит огромное удовольствие, предлагая множество интересных сражений с другими игроками. Впрочем, у игры есть и недостатки. Обучение могло бы быть более подробным, чтобы новые игроки быстрее освоились в механиках. Также хотелось бы увидеть больше разнообразия юнитов и карт. Несмотря на это, DawnOfCombat – отличная игра для любителей RTS, способная увлечь на долгие часы. Рекомендую всем, кто ищет интересную и сложную стратегию с глубоким геймплеем.
DawnOfCombat — это тактическая RTS-игра, где игроки сражаются за господство над различными фракциями в эпических битвах. Плюсы: Глубокий тактический геймплей — возможность разрабатывать сложные стратегии и управлять отрядами. Разнообразие фракций — каждая из девяти фракций обладает уникальными способностями и юнитами. Высококачественная графика — обновленные модели и эффекты делают игру визуально привлекательной. Минусы: Некоторые баги — возможны технические проблемы при запуске. Ограниченное количество карт — может показаться мало для продолжительного геймплея. Устаревшие элементы анимации — некоторые анимации юнитов могут выглядеть архаично. Итог: DawnOfCombat предлагает захватывающий тактический опыт для любителей RTS-игр, несмотря на некоторые технические проблемы и ограничения в контенте.
