Queue Simulator 2021.

The game is good, I played the closed beta in August and open beta in early September. It amazes me that Amazon delayed the game for a month and the same bugs that existed on the closed beta are still around, with some of them being fixed.

Server queues are ridiculous. I play in SA East region and although we don't have many servers with queues, I can feel the frustration of NA and EU players by having 2000+ players queue, taking hours and hours to login to the server.

Increasing servers doesn't work because now everyone started their characters, progressed through the game, and something that should've been done in launch day is being done in the first week. Amazon is offering a free character transfer in the following weeks, but it's targeted to new players only. Amazon wants us to create a new character in an empty server so we can then transfer to a highly populated one later.

Server capacity is also ridiculous. 2000 players per server. Some people said it's "okay" since it's 15 territories to be claimed, 100 players per guild, so they added a 500 extra. But no, it's not okay, the capacity should be at least 3000 players. They said they are testing increasing server capacity, but every day that goes by without it is slowly killing the game.

Lastly, but least important, the localization (translation) is awful. I have seen screenshots and streams of people playing in Brazilian Portuguese and the translation is horrible. It looks like it was done by kids that have just started learning English. Strings are translated out of context (e.g. there's a dialog option to pet the dog outside Amrine Excavation, it was literally translated to "domestic animal" in pt-BR), quest and dialogs being translated word by word instead of translating the context. For a company as big as Amazon, I am negatively impressed by the lack of quality in the translation, and the worse part is that someone is being paid for these crappy translations.

Long review short, if you want to wait hours in a queue to play the game, buy it, if not, wait a couple of weeks until the hype train has passed to buy the game.

Elder Scrolls Online is the best approach so far of an online MMO set in the Elder Scrolls universe.

I don't understand why people write bad reviews about it. I know it's not a perfect game, but it isn't bad either. It has something unique that other MMOs don't have (as far as I know): One Tamriel.
You can play wherever you like, whenever you like, with whom ever you like. There's no more level limited zones. You can be level 1 and play with a high level guy and you'll be able to kill these mobs. One Tamriel definitely made ESO better.

Screw you all who are writing bad reviews about this game. This is a beta, don't you know what a beta means? BO3 is just perfect, the first COD to be perfectly fit for PC Gaming after COD 4.

After playing for 40+ hours, I have decided it is time to write a review for this game.

Trove is a free-to-play MMORPG, and it isn't pay-to-win, like most of the free games that are released on Steam that have in-game microtransactions. Well, let me explain it better.


Microtransactions
Trove has in-game microtransactions, and there are two currencies for buying items in the shop:
  • Cubits, which are obtained by filling the Star Bar, by reaching a new Mastery Rank, or by completing the Golden Thread (it's kind of a tutorial.)
  • Credits, which are obtained by either purchasing it with real money, or reaching a new Mastery Rank.

Most of the "useful" things in the store can be purchased with both currencies. Of course, there are some exceptions, such as some items, which you'll eventually need them later, which can only be purchased if you spend real money. But that doesn't make the game pay-to-win.

Why the game isn't pay-to-win? Because almost everything that's in the store, you can acquire without spending real money in the game, thanks to players wanting to trade these items.


Ping
I played Trove when it was in closed beta, or closed alpha. I don't remember exactly, but it was back in 2014. Back in 2014 I couldn't enjoy Trove because the ping was too high to allow me to play. Something around 500-700ms, and it looked like I had a latency of 2 seconds.

When I started playing Trove for real, a few days ago, I realized the ping isn't too much different from the testing phase. It's pretty much the same.


Fun to play
Trove is fun to play. Gather your friends and each one gets a different class. Team up and complete dungeons, castles, shadow dungeons. It is very fun to play with friends.


Veredict
Don't play this game if you still think this game is pay-to-win, or if you are annoyed by high latency, like me.
Play this game if you enjoy having fun with your friends.

And, for those of you wondering why I don't recommend playing it, it's simple: latency problems. The server is located in the US, and I should get something around 150-200ms. But instead I get something around 250-700ms.

EDIT: ping issues still occur as of November 2016. Even people from the US itself get high ping from servers located in their own country (something like 90ms when you're close to the region).

A little bit hard in the start, but it is a cool mod.

Early Access Review
Um dos melhores jogos de apocalipse zumbi que já joguei. Combina os elementos de DayZ e Rust, num ambiente perfeito, sem lag de servidor (zumbis travando, rollbacks, etc).



O jogo estava inacessível no dia do lançamento (normal com todo lançamento, sempre ocorrem imprevistos). Fiquei chateado por não conseguir jogar, mas acreditei no potencial da Sony. No dia seguinte, a Sony anuncia que está arrumando esses problemas, porém alguns servidores estavam offline e isso causava problemas (disconnects em pessoas que estão logadas em outros servidores). O lag dos servidores foi corrigido, e os zumbis e animais não ficam mais parados no mesmo lugar.

Nada de pay-to-win. As pessoas consideram os airdrops como pay-to-win porque um streamer famoso comprou 3 airdrops, e lançou eles. Dois caíram no mesmo lugar que ele tinha lançado, e o outro caiu em um lugar mais distante. Porém, em todos os 3 airdrops haviam armas, o que me diz que não foi desse jeito que os desenvolvedores da Sony Online Entertainment programaram os airdrops. Após um dia de reclamações, a Sony decide mudar os airdrops, e agora há 10% de chance de sair uma arma em um airdrop, e essa arma ou é uma Shotgun, ou é uma M1911. Nada de AR15, e explosivos não contam.

Se você tem um amigo pra jogar, chame-o para jogar. O jogo é incrivelmente divertido quando você joga com alguma pessoa conhecida.


O loot (pelo menos até o dia 1º de fevereiro) está muito alto. É desse jeito que as pessoas gostam, e aqueles que realmente gostaram do jogo por ser um jogo focado em sobrevivência e não PvP não gostaram dessa mudança. Digo somente uma coisa: está em alfa. Isso com certeza vai mudar.


Recomendo o jogo, mas, se você se irrita facilmente com bugs, e acredita em tudo que lê na internet, não recomendo comprar.

Se você for comprar, compre o pacote mais básico. Não vale a pena gastar R$72.99 em coisas praticamente "inúteis".

CS:GO Review
One of the best FPS games ever made.


12 years since the first version of Counter-Strike was released, and yet this game is one of the most played games on Steam.


I recommend this game, but only one warning: if you want to open cases, be ready to spend more than $10 buying keys and cases.

Infestation is one of the worst post-apocalyptic survival games ever made. Lots of cheaters, the game administrators don't give a ♥♥♥♥ about the hackers, their anti-cheat is pretty messed up.

Pay-to-win, if you want to buy medical items from the marketplace, you'll have to either spend a whole lot of Dollars or GC. You earn GC by buying it, and the Dollars, zombies drop them, but they don't drop much (1-10 dollars per zombie).


I don't recommend this game, it was good on the first 2 months after the release, now, who wins is who has the best hacking software.

Early Access Review
Unturned is surpsingly amazing. The game is in Early Access, but it has so much potential. With the 3.0 version, I believe Unturned will have ~50,000 users.

It's not pay to win - you buy gold if you want to. It will unlock a few more character slots (3.0), and a few more customization features for your character.

The graphics are not bad for a game that started on ROBLOX, zombies aren't too much OP, loot is not OP.
