For this game being a preview I already love it some much, and will be my game of the year whenever it fully releases. However there are some issues that I’ve experienced along the way. I hope optimization will come in the future because there are a lot of small things in the game that will make my game lag or crash.
While rearranging and organizing my chests I crashed 7 times. I also have a newer series x so it’s not like the console shouldn’t be able to handle a game like this.
I experience a lot of lag while sprinting through the grass on the buggies. I believe it’s because of how many blades of grass get moved, loading enemies, and loading parts of the map, but the game can’t handle it all at once.
I also have an issue where my backpack would fall through the ground in random places when I would die. Not only from falling from height and dying but I would die fighting a bug and it was just be under the map.
There are also many areas where you can access under the map if you walk through it on the right side. Some logs, rocks, and parts of the ground where it comes up and you can just slide through. I’ve fell through the map a couple of times accidentally running into some of these spots.
Another issue is that snails are able to just move freely through builds. I have a base on the log that the frisbee is on and the snails has just passed through the foundation, floors, and walls like it’s a ghost.
I’m done with the complaints, but now I have a few friendly suggestions. I hear a lot of my friends talk about a mosquito or a bee buggy, but I feel like there would be so many nests to keep up with you’d have to construct a big area just for all these buggies. I would really like it if there were buggies of the similar species but different. If there’s an already an ant nest why not add flying ants. A spider nest? Add a jumping spider in the game.
I also would like if there were more bosses in this game. I understand the first game was a smaller area but I felt like there were less bosses. Like ants are big part of the game because they’re everywhere. Why not add an ant queen as a boss in one of the ant hills as maybe an early game boss. Maybe add a tiger swallowtail butterfly as a boss somewhere.
