Gameplay is solid, making this an interesting free to play space shooter. It's not yet War Thunder in orbit, but it's still more than worth a try. ...Read full review

Some good old honest space combat fun, with an inoffensive free-to-play model. Worth your time, and possibly even your money. [Apr 2013, p.86]

It might not be a game to remember for years, but the great PvP mode is worth checking out (especially that Star Conflict is free). [01/2015, p.81]

A solid sci-fi game, but you should probably wait for the release of Elite: Dangerous. ...Read full review

A rich space shooter offering countless hours of fun at no cost with significant features both in terms of variety and depth of game mode, also with a large arsenal available to players and a very good technical sector which makes it extremely enjoyable. ...Read full review

I sometimes find myself leaning forward into my computer as I dive, and lean side to side as I dodge missiles. There are 3 class types which each are very unique and give the game a kind of RPG feel. Looting, rare drops, equipment, leveling also contributes to this feel. Overall a great game especially being FTP. 10 out of 10 for sure. Also i noticed someone commenting on long wait times which must have been when it was first released because now I'd be surprised if i waited longer than 30 secs ever. Great game Expand

Good space sim. Much needed too, nice to be in a free roaming sim, instead of a "rail-system" *chough, SWTOR* *cough*. It is free to play,Good space sim. Much needed too, nice to be in a free roaming sim, instead of a "rail-system" *chough, SWTOR* *cough*. It is free to play, with a "pay for it now" aspect to support it. Every item & ship can be bought with normal currency, but they have "gold" items that can be bought with cash, there are BLUE items that have the exact same stats as the gold, and those are purchased with in game currency. So there isn't a pay to win, just pay for it now, or you could just play normally, grind it out, and get something with the exact same stats. It has some issues, but overall it is a very nice breath of fresh air. Recommended for anyone who like FPS games, or space fliers like Xwing Vs Tie Fighter, or the mentioned freelancer & tachyon.

People who think this is Pay to Win, do not understand the concept, and it's completely obvious what the devs are doing.

However, it takes a lot of time to enter a game, as it highly depends on the number of players online. Yet, its PvP dosent really seem like an actual PvP--Im not sure if its just me but I dont see other player's actual name tag--they're all computer generated, and like really trash, making me think that this is AI instead of actual players. Or, its because of its trashy balancing system, where players with 4 rank ships can be iin the same match with 1 rank ships Expand

The game has an interesting concept and potential but is far away from being finished (still in beta) and playable.

At first it is fun to play this space action game as it has a little bit of depth and takes some strategy to win.
But soon you'll realize that this game is unbalanced, matchmaking is awful and servers are terrible.

The lack of players especially in non-Russian territories makes this game even more difficult to play with long wait times for matches.

The open beta is going on for a year or longer and the game still doesn't have a release date yet. They plan to implement more features and game modes this year and supposed to officially release the game but all that seems far away with the baby steps in development.

I was getting kicked from games, and had to wait epic amounts of time for my ship "to no longer be in combat"... After the last hour wait, i was done. In addition, my brother could not connect no matter what. After trying the password reset 10 times, and makes 3 different accounts, the password never worked on log in. Strangely the site was always in Russian... but like LoL, its launch was awful with how long it took to finally play a match, it killed the fun. Ill rate it higher once they fix it to be able to actually play. Expand

it is a good game till tier 3 then you wind up fighting tier 8+ players in PvP and from talking to them alot have paid money to the game andit is a good game till tier 3 then you wind up fighting tier 8+ players in PvP and from talking to them alot have paid money to the game and it seems that gives them a MAJOR advantage as i played 28 game i kept track and the AI on my team are so bad they may as well not been there i checked the report after each match and my AI ships have ZERO kills and enemy teams AI all have at least 1 kill seems like if you pay money to the game you get a better AI script for the game as most PvP matches are you vs another player and bots and maybe have another player join as the match is in progress always thought AI scripts was same for all but this game proves how wrong i am keep paying members happy and piss on any others who can't or won't pay.
