You uninstall it and open Rebel Galaxy Outlaw instead

Is that any good then? Write ups on it are mixed.

I'm so confused is this a good dogfight game you can play without going full HOTAS/VR that has some kind of not dogshit online comp play or not?
I read the thread I don't get what this is. Am I supposed to just play a SP campaign? Is it already dead? wth

I would contend (and write a thorough review for you all on that basis) that it is a really, really great product with a lot of great heart and passion behind it and it shows, and I have to commend the handful of people who made it. I think of it as the anti star citizen: a game with a neat and tidy scope that knew exactly what kind of experience it wanted to provide, what it was NOT going to be, and how to be memorable at its existing scale. And then it fucking did it and tossed all the goodies out the door and said "have fun! The soundtrack is like a hundred hours long and oh we also included a complete ship paintwork design studio for free go nuts" I joke about uninstalling squadrons but it is actually to squadrons' peril that i got to kick back and enjoy RGO first, because they simply provided a more indulgent experience

It’s good, it’s fun. The single player story is an interesting twist.
I’m still getting ROFLstomped by people who are obviously rocking HOTAS setups and just fucking up everyone in their path.

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something. We need to stop this fucking planet right now and sort some shit out. -Kail

I ended up returning it without putting any time into it, but that is simply in hopes that they fix the locked framerate issue in VR. Otherwise looked fun as hell.

It is a remake of Xwing vs Tie Fighter only with console UI and mission pacing, and with ships all balanced 1v1 rather than simulating the Ip.

This has been growing on me a bit since a few us started playing more regularly as a group.
Just having a team that will try to focus fire and someone flying a u wing/reaper does make it more fun.

Looks like they finally fixed the PC issue that locked the FPS outside the cockpit at 60 frame, making it unplayable in VR. So I picked it up again, and yeah, much, much better now and runs well enough for a good experience. I would like a bit more sharpness and would prefer a better AA option, but good enough. Making a run on a Star Destroyer in VR is something.

Tie defender is in 'TIE Fighter' second only in headcanon status to the original trilogy. I want to know where my Alpha Class Gunboat is dammit.
