This game is a funky puzzle. It's got a lot of great pieces, but they just don't come together.
What the game really needs is a form of deployable cover. Now now, I know, cover, but generally you're in space... just floating like open the door HAL and shit, so that's 360 degrees by 360 degrees of nothing. The combat would just be so rewarding if being in space didn't mean an enemy looking at you was death.
The game needs the guns too, because the one rifle concept was charming, but boring in execution. But it's the cover system that needs work. A temporary shield? Something.
:watched the trailer:
Yeah, it's just shooty stuff. It's great, but doesn't address the core flaw in the gameplay. Then again I could just be griping and not know wtf I'm talking about.
