Star Trucker is a great addition to the genre, introducing some fresh ideas and gameplay mechanics while taking us on an exciting journey across the universe. Now we just need more of it.
Star Trucker is as valuable as any video game that offers something unique and unparalleled. It’s distinctive, bold, well-crafted, and designed with a specific audience in mind. However, if your sole interest is in driving, you might want to consider other options.
Let me start by saying this game is not Euro Truck Sim 2 so do not think you're going to be building a company. This is more a systems manager and a trucking game, you'll be checking your systems constantly and might also be truckin' in the dark with zero gravity with a box hitting your face. That being said I love it. The gameplay can be relaxing, music is brilliant and this game is so beautiful!
However, my one gripe is the alignment on the mag locking. It can be annoying to get used to but you do get your eye in to it eventually, then you go for a repair and find out you're off by .1 of a meter and you cannot fix it to save your life. Once you do it though it does feel rewarding.
Could this game knock Euro Truck from its throne? Absolutely not. But this game doesn't feel like its trying to do that.
The devs want you to get lost in this world and role play a Star Trucker and they do it very well with the CB (I love that feature by the way, 10/10 for that).
For the price this is very worth it, I can think of many more games that cost more than this and you would not get the same experience.
Its also on Game Pass so definingly worth it.
Also if you have three screens, go for it. This game looks amazing across three screens.
I'll give it a 10-4 and sign off!
Star Trucker ist eine Mischung aus American Truck Simulator und Weltraum-Simulator.
Das Spiel ist sehr Relaxing macht aber dennoch spaß, da man mehr macht als nur einen Space-Truck zu "fahren".
Die kleinen Aufgaben wie Batterie-checks oder Lecks am Truck zu reparieren sind eine gute Abwechslung zum Truck "fahren".
American Truck Simulator mäßig gibt es diverse Aufträge Ladung von A nach B zu bringen.
Die Steuerung ist teilweise bisschen schwammig aber man gewöhnt sich schnell daran.
Nur die Steuerung während man im Anzug ist extrem schwammig, hier wäre glaube ich wie beim Truck eine externe Kamera hilfreich.
Mein Persönliches Highlight ist das Radio, mit den lässigen Country Songs lässt es sich direkt entspannt durch den Weltraum cruisen.
As it stands, I thought Star Trucker was a good time. Not an ideal time, and I don’t think it will be everyone’s cup of Space Joe, but I think it does what it sets out to do. The creators had a vision they wanted to achieve, and I think they hit near enough to the mark to call it a success. As long as you know what you’re getting into, it’s a worthwhile experience. It might occasionally grind your gears, but it’s a breath of fresh air with the right filters.
There’s a lot to like in Star Trucker, and it's bursting with potential. It’s also in need of some balance and tweaking. Still, what’s on offer is well worth the asking price, and should keep you trucking for a long while.
Star Trucker shows a lot of promise. Its ease of entry, limited learning curve, and beautiful environments promise many hours of enjoyment. However, this welcome simplicity is also one of its main drawbacks. There's so much more that could have been done to improve the user experience. The biggest problem, however, is the skewed economy. Resources essential for enjoying Star Trucker are too expensive and hard to come by, making it more of a power management simulator than a space truck simulator. Choosing an easier difficulty level may alleviate some of these issues, but it points to an overall imbalance in the game. Nevertheless, given its low price and easy approachability, Star Trucker can be a lot of fun for fans of space and truck simulations, but you may not want to visit this truck stop very often.
I'm going to start by saying I'm a huge fan of American Truck Simulator and Euro Truck Simulator 2. I knew that going into this game it was going to be TOTALLY different, and boy was I right. Granted, they did a lot of great things to make this game unique, and yet they still have A LOT of polishing to do. The balance between "driving" and either fixing your truck, or replenishing your "batteries" or trying to figure out where the heck the fresh one goes is a little off. The graphics on one hand are so impressive I actually caught myself just looking around space and the amount of detail they've put into everything, it really pops. Additionally, trying to drive/fly your truck is very frustrating when using a keyboard/mouse on PC. I was really hoping for some wheel support, but the controls are far too complex and confusing that there's absolutely zero chance it could be controlled properly using one. They did a good job on some parts, but it seems like they got into their own heads about having to make it unique and authentic feeling, and just made it too much. I really gave it a shot and did a few deliveries but it didn't feel right, there was this huge disconnect between myself and the truck and I think it was the lack of a physical wheel. Even the option for a flight yolk would be nice, I have one of them also for flight simulators. Maybe with future updates they'll tweak some of these things. But until then this game just needs too much polishing to become a recommended game yet alone one of my daily drivers.
O jogo tem potencial mas não consegue entregar em mecânicas básicas de gameplay. Basicamente você tem que gastar dinheiro para trabalhar e se isso não fosse o suficiente, quanto mais você trabalha, mais você gasta dinheiro, já que o jogo faz com que você precise ficar trocando peças do caminhão e isso te custa muita grana em comparação a um trabalho que você faz. Fiquei com 30k negativo tentando jogar da melhor forma possível e cheguei a conclusão que o melhor a se fazer é não jogar mais e desinstalar esse jogo. Pois assim você não perde mais dinheiro e nem tempo.
I deeply wanted to like this game, It has so many unbelievable flaws it is so hard for me to imagine any of the devs played the game themselves. The game is punishing, it is just not fun. If you have to resort to save scrumming to even play this game then maybe the game mechanics dont work. It's way to easy to brick your save by just not having enough money or resources.
I actually havent played a game that has made me angry in years. I restarted this game 4 times and wasted 6 hours
