SAND: Raiders of Sophie

Pros: I think this game has the potential to be a great game. Con: The cheating is absurd. My breaking point was having the craziest battle of my life, having absurd amounts of loot. Only to find out, 10 minutes later that it was vacuumed from us. I'm talking 30 boxes of loot fully stacked, multiple wines and tunas, district office, etc. At the time of this review, if you really want to progress and need loot, you take a risk of losing everything. Especially on voyage mode. Currently, I couldn't with a good conscience recommend this game to anyone. Cheating is always going to happen, but damn.

Sand is extremely fun but unplayable right now because of the cheaters. Its infested. I hope they get it under control but until then its a complete waste of time. Cant give it a good review right now because the situation is so bad but I will be anxiously waiting for some good news to change my review.

very good core game but unfortunately extremely buggy and as of the last few days completely overrun by cheaters

just the cheaters

While I definitely find the beauty in this game, and I think it is a fun experience. The balancing is absolutely atrocious. The fact that you can find yourself with a Tier 1 ship going against people who are all the way at Tier 3 tech? Armor plating is locked behind tier 2. The problem with games like these is that they are huge time dumps, you can drop 2 hours into a single map just to be absolutely devastated by a ship three times your size and, oddly, three times faster as well, with ten times the parts attached to them. The fact that it's damn near impossible to disengage once a fight starts is silly as all hell. I understand what the devs are going for here, and the freedom to do different things and try new builds is amazing, but it has definitely led to some absolutely ridiculous builds. Not sure what the thought process was behind locking armor behind tier two tech. Good game ruined by hackers and no-life players with ships that far exceed everyone else around them. The game often feels like I am doing all of the looting for other players. I'd love for it to be explained to me how a 6 person ship stacked 5 levels high is faster than a 2 person ship with 60 Maneuverability. I'd love to make sense of that.

This game has an immense cheating problem. They can do literally everything. Turn off your reactor mid fight, fly, go invisible, be invincible, kill you through walls, teleport on your ship, steal everything then leave automatically, aimbotting etc. They refuse to address this and cheats existed for this game since the playtest, this should tell you how much they care about preventing cheating edit: i played one round after this review where our ship phased directly through the enemy's making our reactor side face them fully so they were free to just shoot us while we could do nothing to respond. I happened to be in the reactor room while we exploded, making me stuck on the floor as the walker inexplicably sunk onto the floor. To my knowledge, walkers clipping through one another has been an issue in this game since the very first playtest. The fact that the only publisher that wanted anywhere near this game are the developer of hello neighbor should tell you everything you need to know edit 2: these guys are making EFT devs look good, their other multiplayer title is secret neighbor who to my knowledge has also had a massive cheater problem

Don't even attempt to buy the game it's nothing but hackers that they can't get rid of. They post a bug fix to disable people taking your ship and what does that lead to just the hacker turning off the ship while they blow the engine.

Returned after taking a break heard they disabled capturing ships so hoped to be able to play but now just have hacker flying around the map 3 matches in a row a hacker flys to my ship turns it off and 1 shots the whole crew and has experimental cannons to blow up ship not fun.

fun but full of bugs and lost my progression and loot cuz of bug multiple times.
