  This game has the privilege of being one of only a handful from my Steam library that I've actually asked to have permanently removed from my account by Steam support. Cashing in on the nostalgia for classics like the Descent series (all of which are vastly superior to this dreadful "game"), Miner Wars 2081 is a broken mess. Everything about the game is just "off" somehow. The scale is really weird and difficult to describe. Rather than feeling like you're flying around in a spaceship inside an enormous space station, it feels like you're driving a Micro Machine around someone's living room; nothing's got a sense of proportion or frame of reference and the design of the space station interiors seems designed to confuse, with little in the way of landmarks or anything that might actually make it look like it could be inhabited by actual people. The combat mechanics are basic and the menu/inventory system is a nightmare to navigate, let alone understand. The voice acting is pretty poor and what little I could glean of the story from the opening mission made no sense, being totally without context. After the first mission ends you're dumped into a world/solar-system map with no idea where to go next or why. Pretty much wherever you do decide to go, some people will autoamtically attack you, but it's not made clear why that's happening either, or if any of the ships are meant to be friendly. Finally, the setting is so utterly absurd that it does nothing to help this sorry excuse for a game. The idea that anything on/around Earth could survive its destruction by the Sun exploding is total nonsense. That functioning societies could spring up from the debris and even start building new structures in a scant few years after an apocalyptic event is the metaphorical icing on this turd of a cake. I cannot urge you strongly enough - do not buy this game under any circumstances.

  The only way I can describe this game is predatory. It's grossely misleading - class action lawsuit misleading. And I don't use that term lightly. They compare it to Descent with a fully destructable enviornment, but it's more like an amateur Unity project. First off, you need fuel. Remember those old Nintendo games where you had to constantly pick up fuel to keep moving? The ones where taking just a second longer to get the fuel meant losing the game? Well, imagine that in a 3d enviornment while you're being shot at and you have no clue where the fuel tanks are. Do you get into cover (yes, you have to take cover in your space fighter)? Then you just used fuel and probably can't reach the next tank. Do you rush to the next tank and fight from there? Then you'll get your oxygen system taken out and die. The AI always knows where you are and has pixel perfect aiming, even when you're trying to shoot back at a target no bigger than a pixel. There are hardened turrets stationed everywhere. So some stuff is destructable. Tunnel through it and flank them? Nope. That uses your fuel. You HAVE to take the shortest route possible or you run out of gas. Even better, if you're fighting outside, there is a solar flare every 10 seconds or so. And yes, it will kill you. So you have to spend more fuel trying to hide in a meteor cave (how does this protect you from a SOLAR FLARE again?) or try to dash through a cluster of enemies which while tear you to pieces. On the odd chance you do collect some resources, they're just used for a really basic crafting system. Bottom line - stay away from this garbage and the developer. They also made Space Engineers, and I refuse to give them another dime until they fix this game.

  I enjoyed it, and that's because I got it very cheap and went in with low expectations. It exceeded tham, a little. They built a world that the game could only make use of about a third of, so it seems like a game that was going to have much more content. What's there works and is fun. People who remember Descent as awesome might be hyping it up a bit in their memories... This game has what decent never had - an open world (space?) design. It might only be half implemented, but I'd probably still rather play it than an updated Descent. Just get it cheap or on sale and don't expect to have your mind blown.

  Was abandoned by devs and "Finished" far too early. Cannibalized for Space Engineers (Which I have heard is great, but refuse to buy after this game)

  Miner Wars 2081 promises epic space battles, but instead gives you a frustrating game of resource micro-management. Every amenity on your ship - from ammunition to oxygen to fuel - is limited, and runs out rather quickly. Even if the vast, bland environments were actually worth looking around, the game simply wouldn't allow you any exploration due to your limited resources. When you finally actually do get to fighting, the balance is atrocious, with some enemies barely leaving a scratch on your hull, while others in the same area annihilate you as soon as you get in range. I was hoping for a spiritual successor to the Descent/Freespace series, as those remain among my favorites of all time, but sadly this is nowhere near pulling it off. Stay far, far away.

  This game sucked when I bought it years ago. Those .7 hours on record consist of my swearing while trying to make it through the tutorial. Shittiest controls ever. This was when the game had about a 70% approval rating. Today - it has gotten even worse. Don't buy this pile of shit.

  Level editor doesn't work because apparently it needs to be connected to some account system, which either doesn't exist anymore or just doesn't work.

  Horrible cash grab of a game. The 0.7 hours I put into this allowed me to discover just how bad it is. If you try to play singleplayer you will find the odds to be ridiculously uneven against you, with the developers hoping you will pay to unlock cheats. If you play multiplayer it is no different except that even if you survive til the end together, at least one of you will run out of fuel before reaching the end, because they do not even bother to give both of you fuel/ammo/health pickups. Do not get this game. I'm disappointed that steam continues to support such a complete waste of money. Keep an eye out for other "indie" games that are done by similarly corrupt developers.
