Don't waste your time or money on this game. It is a gatcha with ship combat. They want money for every little thing, Think everything is worth way to much. Their multilayer economy is just to get you to spend more money. Sure the combat and stuff seems fun at first. That gets old real fast with dailies and every other way they repetitively bore you to tears with its few play options. Find another game, this one will only be a waste and you will regret it later. It is sad too, the ships are really cool and detailed, the history stuff is really interesting. It is sad they made it a massive cash grab.

This game is great and every time they update/upgrade the game it only gets better. FOV makes great videos and an even better game. Love it!

This is a fantastic game. The visuals are the cherry on top of the game play and story. If you enjoy these type of games you will love this one. 10/10

Dying game, I'm sure it was great early in its life but now is full of nothing but annoying children. Ones that seem hellbent on doing everything possible to make playing this game terrible. An entire guild dedicated to killing players and blocking off content. Even the safezone mechanics are not sufficient to allow any escape from the annoyance. Don't waste your time trying this game because it will only make you hate it. RIP Mortal Online, may your shutdown come sooner than later.

Surprisingly well made! The gun mechanics and handling are as good or better than BLR. Graphics are smooth and game runs fluidly. The interface is well done, easy to navigate, easy to learn, and not frustrating while still being feature rich. The game modes are rewarding and fun to play while encouraging team building in a positive way. Best part is that it is totally like being a section 9 agent!! Any GITS otaku will be in heaven!

Best controller made! Takes a bit to get used to using it and the feel of it in your hand, so be prepared for that. Bonus you can plug it into your XBox One and use it there too XD (yes I was curious and tested that lol)

And the award for best way to stick it to bejeweled goes to HuniePop! Not only do I get to enjoy verbal dating abuse in the comfort of my chair I can even reward myself with their virtual panties when my domination is complete. Not to mention the anime graphics are just the type of eye candy to keep my cuteness meter topped off!

I give it 5/5 HunieBees

Very well made game, thoughtful story, beautiful graphics and addictive combat. They have avoided the classic pitfall of many RPG titles of excessive mind numbing grinding. The advancing of your abilities and how smoothly you can move allong with responsive and fluid battle is a huge plus. For extra credit they even have great xbox360 controller support with easy to learn button configuration. All I had to do was install the game, set my screen resolution and away I went on the adventure.

Only con to the game is its classic enemy design. with some practice it is not hard to predict their moves and bulldoze the entire game untouched. Though this could also be a bonus for someone not wanting to spend days pissed off about the over tricky combat AI. Personally I liked the classic enemy style and it was refreshing to spend more time playing and figuring out things then annoyed at trying to beat a trolling AI.

Anyone looking to play a quality RPG should play Dust because you wont be disapointed. I give it a 9/10 Nymbats :P

The game is good if you are into mission purity and storyline that would be better off not existing.

Mission & Story:
- The story elements added to explain the missions at the begining have no video and do more to annoy than serve a purpose.
- Missions are linear which is fine but all the time delays to hold off the enemy are counter to the actual how you beat them mechanics. To better explain:
-- If you want to beat missions effectively your main goal is minimize cop pressence by things like destroying cameras. Which can make the wait time dull and uneventful.
- Missions are simple and add no real challenge. They all fall into hold point or take point shootouts...

Gear:
- Gear is basically add ons that have a typical purpose of gradually ramping up your abilities or adding tools.

Weapons:
- Weapons are limited to what you are given for the mission or later when you unlock others you get a few selection choices.
- Gun mechanics are the one thing in game that adds any challenge (not in a good way). They dont offer much in the way of aiming tools and the guns are a bit sloppy at times.
- The attempt to be overly real with the gun aiming causes great amounts of frustration when you are pressed with don't shoot civs and stay alive when pressed with hordes of cops.
- Melee offers no reward for the players like myself who go for adding a new element of play or some interesting challenge to the game. It is very limited in range and not consistant in results. It does not offer pushback on the enemies with riot sheilds either which is very counter intuitive. In short you can't go ninja mode for fun...

Final Thoughts:
- The game offers a simplistic way for someone to pretend to be a bad guy that only wants a challenge of how to avoid death while micromanaging amo.
- If you are a marksman who feels proper view down an aiming sight is to sensable than this is a game for you. If you prefer to actually look down the aim sight and have proper accuracy related to it then don't play this game.
- I personally find this game very boring since the only challenge is managing your amo. Non of the objectives at all offer any thrill, they are just used to make you run around in the line of fire. I've had more interesting combat and objective runs in super mario than this game (I dislike all Mario games btw).
- Overall I give this game a 3/10 for play value. Only reason I even play it now is because a few friends do.

APB is a classic case of great concept done very poorly. After watching it "evolve" over time I have come to this conclusion about APB and its design. I will try to stay the concise points for easy reading.
- Designed to promote negativity between players (yes the game is PVP however they make no genuine effort to promote teamwork and community building between players)
- Missions are 50% easily one sided, 25% one sided based upon player tallents, and only 25% resonably balanced based on the objectives themselves.
- Developement is focused more toward re-releasing the original game content for a cash fee than resolving long standing issues and design flaws.
- They have been gradually improving the player threat system so it more accurately reflects a persons skill.
- The one truly good feature for the game is the character and vehicle design system that allows a high level of customization of look by use of symbols.
- Vehicle driving and performance is what you would expect from any game.
- Gun mechanics are sloppy and often glitchy. They add unneeded features in a failed attempt to balance weapons.
- Limited options for PVP play, you either do missions which have a standard theme or do Fight Club which is basically a moshpit of players killing players with a mission objective of some basic sort.
- Developement has issues with breaking things when adding or making "improvements" slow to never fix issues and glitches.

Overall the game is poorly maintained, poorly developed, and has a good concept with a few nice features. It earns a 4 out of 10

**update 11/20/2015** READ THE AGREEMENT BEFORE YOU INSTALL!!! (all examples provided are paraphrased) Pando part talks about how they are not liable for anything that happens even if it is their fault. Punkbuster part clearly states they have full rights inspect the contents of your Hard Drive, RAM, etc while it is running and even take screenshots which they can use publically. Before that they state it is always running and updates without giving any notice to you which btw anyone who has installed APB before knows it installs a punkbuster windows service that runs all the time in the background unless you manually disabled it. That is but a small taste of what is in that agreement..

I WILL NEVER INSTALL APB AGAIN! I also advise for the safety of your PC and data that you also never install this game!
