Now that the free weekend is over, there aren’t so many people in-game, but I’ve yet to have to wait longer than a couple of minutes to find a match. The free weekend really helped, with a peak of about 4,000 players from what I’ve seen. The community seems to be growing strong and dedicated.
In general, the controls in Fractured Space are quite solid for an alpha test. Other than those two, I can’t think of any other issues. There was a bug where activating your drones wouldn’t work, but that issue was cleared up quick enough. Usually, these are related to the aiming mechanics, such as when you’re zoomed. There are some minor control glitches, though the game is still in alpha so it’s to be expected. Stuff like this just make the experience so much more real, which is important to me in games like this. When you activate your point-defense system your ship’s hull lights up with tons of little turrets going to work to take down enemy fighters and missile attacks. If your ship is fighter capable, you may notice that you have some kind of port or runway on your ship for those fighters. The fact that I can look around my ship and it’s designed to be practical – not some sleek designer yacht with guns – is fantastic. The amount of detail put into each ship is what really brings the game home for me. You expect epic space battles between massive capital ships to look a certain way and this game definitely delivers on that. The graphics in Fractured Space were superb. So far, in my over twenty of hours of gameplay, I have to say that Fractured Space is my favorite space battle game to date. The combat in the game is done in such a way that you’re always in the midst of an intense battle, where strategy and tactics are key. Currently, gameplay is similar to most MOBAs – two lanes, five person teams, and a home base that must be attacked. You will take control of massive ships in space and do battle with teams of five versus five. Fractured Space is a Steam Early Access team-based space game.
