Istrolid

Tried this game out a few days ago, and I've found it one of the most interesting RTS game I've played in awhile. Very simple premise, easy to get into. Yet difficult to master. It exemplifies the concept of simplicity. The developers are definitely onto something great here. Would be nice to have a focused set of gameplay types, but I've been rocking out playing the campaign and pvp battles.

Its a decent game. The campaign is also the tutorial. I spent almost a year playing it. Pro 1_Get to build your own ship. 2_Ai System for the ships. 3_There's multiple player mode. 3v3/ 2v2/ 1v1. 4_Moderator are usually on 5_Regular updates. 6_Balance weapons. 7_Its Free. Con 1_Theres essentially one game mode. Which is one team vs another team in captureing points/flags. 2_Matching making isnt balanced. It gets decided by the host. For example if the host has a full 3 pros on their team, the host can let 3 new players in the opposite team. Basically a slaughter fest. 3_Match Making is also very messy due to the multiple lobby that is generate but often stays on even when there isnt players in them. 4_The last one is managble but when the theres too many ship in play during a 3v3 crashes often. Heres some way they can fix the game. 1_Make sure each player finishes campaign before they can play multiplayer mode. 2_Revamp the match making system to 10 lobby max. So people al...

I don't recommend this game.For several reasons. 1.This is a potential game. But it is an online game.You need to register and log in just for the singleplayer.This might not be an apparante fault,but consider once the server's closed, you can't play forever, and we'd have no way knowing when they will close it.And once that's happened your ships are lost forever.I can't play knowing my playability is in other's hand. I used to host a private Minecraft Bukket server and i had to stop it. Those who played on it were very sad. I don't want it to all happen again. =====================EDIT======================================= Since the devs have kindly responded, I probably should have elaborated on my point. My point is: a_that this game could be developed for a better single player experience,with player fighting ai and don't need to connect to the internet to play,(for example during bad internet service which is all the time where i live) and that b_this game develo...

awesome game. saw video's of people playing it. I was immediately hooked. The campaign has the right amount of challenge and levels. forcing the player to think outside the box and change up their ships or optimize micro managing. haven't tried the multiplayer yet. I'm kinda late to the party here. but seeing how you can use AI is really cool. program a ship to prioritize certain tactics in a battle. 1 minor complaint is that you can't add any of the dlc items to your ships in the campaign mode. I can understand some of the shaded stuff, but the insignia's and stripes to make your ships more unique? That should be changed. Also its kinda hard to keep ships symmetrical.

I'd describe Istrolid an an RTS puzzle game. Why puzzle game? Because the campaign is a long series of themed brawls, where the AI comes at you with very specific, themed fleets. What do you do against the fleet that's all fighters? Bring flak. How do you beat the slowpoke turtle guy? Outrange him with artillery. Things get *way* more complicated from there. You have infinite retries and can spend as much time rejiggering your fleet as you like. I spend more time configuring ships than I do fighting them. This is some of the best free entertainment I've ever had. Try it!

dont ever hope for a password reset, their system doesnt even recognise that it reset it. solid.

really fun strategic game

Pretty Good.

A very fun and addicting game which should cost at least $20. No gimmicks, no fake gameplay, just a really fun game.

I'd rate 9/10 only because I can't call in kill streaks and install texture packs. otherwise, its a good game. I'm eager to see expansions on gamemodes in the near future.
