Amazing, but there is noone playing it anymore, which is actually really sad. There are no bots unfortunately to fill in the gap
This game could have been a big deal. Sure, you look at the Premium pack and go "Well, that's now pay to win." Except not really.
Back when this game came out, it was, in some regards, free to play done right. You could play for free and work towards individual parts, or just buy the game and have everything. I think you even got a coupon that made Premium cheaper if you had basic.
The issue is that the game isn't backed by a big name, and that's unfortunate. In a world where we're spending money on season passes and free to play titles where $20 would get you maybe a few loot boxes or some silly hat, here's a game that just says "Feel free to try it, and if you want to just buy everything, here's our intended price. If you don't mind the grind, then you can absolutely play this for nothing."
I wish this game was still alive, the fact that it's free is enough to recommend it, give it a fair shake with a bunch of friends if you're hesitant, not much to lose anyways.
I've played this game for years and I've enjoyed every moment playing. I play along with a bunch of other veteran players every friday and saturday and we have a blast
-DO NOT DOWNLOAD- *Dead*
Honestly one of the most fun arena shooters I've ever played and I've played a lot of it. Sadly the games dead. It never had a huge community even on release but it always had 1 or 2 lobbies with the same dedicated fans playing in the afternoons. Most people knew one another and there would always be one new guy asking how to attach both side guns. I wish the devs had kept updating it I think people would have come around to the games charms.
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times" -Charles Dickens.
cool game, not very active though
someone buy the rights to this game please :(((
What a shame. Although it isn't a very good game for today's standards, I think I can safely say most people enjoyed playing it back then. There was a unique concept within Gear Up and a truly special experience created. It had a lot of potential, and could've been something amazing. *queue the VSauce music* But it wasn't and it died off... why is that?
Well from the start of it's release it was a finished product. Nothing new or exciting happened at all afterwards. Having a multiplayer game finished straight out of the gates isn't inherently a problem, as games like CS:GO and TF2 have proven to stand against the test of time unchanged. What do these have that Gear Up doesn't? Obviously they're backed up by a massive corporation that everybody using steam knows(Valve), where as Gear Up is from Doctor Entertainment, a company almost nobody has ever heard of. Why would this matter; many small businesses game developers have proven to be successful. The problem is with an action packed multiplayer game, the fanbase is going to explode, requiring constant updates and support. If there are no preparations for that, it's going to crash. Unbalanced games with no signs of updating just simply cannot support it.
Games like CS:GO and TF2 work because the people running it can provide the support needed for an exponentially growing community, and Gear Up simply can't. On top of that there's pay to win features in Gear Up which unlock everything instantaneously, ruining the quirky game progression of buying random parts and testing which ones you like. This causes many to lose interest easily, as you can buy an overpowered combination and everything you were working for in the game is gone. Many games have fallen victim to P2W, Gear Up is no different, but it's sad to see it fall under the pressure of a rising community.
TL;DR
game dead as my dog
I love this game have from the beginning and always will such a fun and enjoybl experience, at least this is how it was but unfortinatly you cant find a game with even 2 people, and im not shure why but i hope one day i can play a full lobby agen. A man can wish
I say this as someone who once loved this game. Who, really, once was up there with "the elite," as it were. Clamoring for balance changes, aiding in guides.
This game is dead.
Its developers might be disbanded; it's hard to tell, as they have remained totally silent for years.
Player counts have dropped to nothing.
There's nothing left here. Play something else.
I enjoyed this game fairly well when I first downloaded it, but every time I played it I found myself losing interest in it.
The concept is not new, and it IS fun. You get a tank, you can customize how it is built and how you build your tank changes how you play and gives you different weapons and transportation methods, some with certain abilities (for example, some tanks can hover over water, some can climb walls).
The issue with the game is how unbalanced it is. Some weapons are just blatantly stronger than others, so once you unlock them (or pay for them), you can easily crush newer players, which really ruins the game quickly for people.
Add this on top of how buggy the game is, how jerky and uncomfortable the general gameplay is, and the serious lack of players, the game simply isn't enjoyable for any elongated period of time. The controls and handling on most of the tanks are just awful, and many times it feels very awkward and uncomfortable to play. Dying to the scuffed controls really takes the fun out of what the game could be, and it irks me that a cool concept was ruined by poor execution, and a now dead playerbase.
This game is not dead. We have an active and dedicated community that play every weekend, Friday and Saturday. Friendly and helpful veterans that will help you to quickly build your tank into a formidable fighting machine. Download Gear Up for free and check out the Steam discussion pages for more info. :guheart::teamwork:
Sadly this is one of those reviews I wish could speak better of.
A game that was on steam before Early Access was a thing, Sadly the game never left that phase either.
While there is a fair bit of mix and match of parts in customisation, the game just doesn't have much content at all and development has nearly ground to a hault.
I'm honestly am not sure if development is continuing with it.
Truly a game with potential however i don't believe it'll really ever get it.
Game is fine, but hackers are rampant (heaviest mods, on heaviest tanks, moving faster than the lightest tanks, that never miss, or die). The Devs have no interest in the game, and i am yet to hear a reply to my post about hackers using obvious exploits/Hax (almost a year old post). My suggestion is enjoying it as free to play only. Developers like this are not worthy of our support as a gaming community,
Pros:
customization is great, create a loadout for many different enemies, from stealth, and snipe, to a mobile fortress.
Cons:
You will die to cheaters, that is all.
Developers do not want to hear anything once they have been paid, sadly, and even sadder, this is becoming a real issue on Steam, with newer titles.
I am recommending this game 2 years after its release. Even now, it is fun to play with the various hulls and turrets to take down anyone in your path.
Pros:
Well designed game
Fun to play with friends
Awesome combinations
Challenging multiplayer battles
Cons:
If you dont start out in private matches with friends, you will die nearly immediately
Disbalanced in-game matches (any level can join)
Slow gear upgrades
Only partially optimized
You have to pay to get infinite slots if you want all the gear
Ways to get rid of Cons:
Start playing with friends, then move to random multiplayer
Make private matches with friends
Buy premium or basic dlc (premium better)
Lower graphics settings, then it runs smooth
(Not really a bypass to this, but its not a pay to win)
Overall Review:
Although this game needs a bit more optimization and balancing, you can be a top player within days of playing. I think this game is more suitable for 5-10 friends (including yourself) to play together to have more fun. I do wish the game had certain restrictions on ranks for joining online matches, because my first few matches i was lucky enough to be put on a 6+ rank team against 1-5 rank team (rookie team) so I gained more money than i probably should have to start. Premium Gear Up is a good DLC game. I recommend this to anyone who wont ragequit, but rather be patient whenever they die, but they will have to learn to accept that losing is a major possibility.
8.5/10 would die again.
P.S. This is my first review, is it good?
Edit: This game is super dead! Love the game but man, it's been years since the last update and it has a monthly average of 1.5 players. If you can get a friend group to play with it's a great gem, but don't expect public lobbies with randoms to exist.
The Gameplay
The gameplay is probably about what you'd expect from a game like this, thankfully the tank treads don't use tank controls. Gear Up is a (mostly) team-oriented TPS, with four main gamemodes: Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch,
Your tank controls based on your equipped propulsions, handling similarly to a car when using wheels in that it can turn only whilst moving, with others such as tank treads able to turn in place, and with more exotic options such as the slimeball, spider legs or hovercraft engines you're able to strafe side to side and move diagonally.
Each server has a cycling selection of 3 maps. When the previous match is won, it moves on to the next map. After the third, it restarts from the first, allowing hosts to pick their favorites.
The Building
Unlike some may initially expect, this game doesn't actually allow you to put blocks or pieces together manually. Every tank has a chassis, a propulsion, turrets, weapons, and decorations.
The Chassis is what holds your tank together. You can go with a bulky armor to absorb hits, or a light chassis to get around fast! There's also the more exotic chassis types, like Twin which gives you two turrets!
Propulsion varies wildly. Outside of the normal treads and tires, you can also make your tank a hovercraft, a spider mech, or an alien slime unicycle!
The Turret is what holds your gun on your tank, and determines its turn speed as well as other additional stats. A turret can be slow-turning and heavily armored, or turn around in a flash, or you can literally use a cardboard box to minimize weight! Some have further options, like being able to equip multiple weapons on them at once.
You've got two types of Weapons, and up to four of each. The Primary Weapons have varying utility, from pure DPS to long range or firing over or around obstacles. You can't fire two of the same weapon at the same time, and you can't use a primary while another one is reloading. The Support can do just about anything. You can become lighter with an Antigravity Device, equip an auxiliary Machine Gun, maybe some Speed Boosters or Wings? You can even take flight with Lawnmower Blades!
Graphics and Scenery
The game looks excellent, mixing a pastel cel-shaded aesthetic with a drab ruined future. The tanks are bright and vivid in the landscapes of ruined bio-domes and ancient constructs. The setting and backgrounds explore a mix of modern and futuristic elements, as suits the tanks, with varying weapons besides modern firearms, from the ancient Bronze-age Cannon to the futuristic Tesla Bouncer.
Music
While the soundtrack is small and limited, it's great for what it is. It uses an electronic-orchestral soundtrack at both the title screen and the last 30 seconds of a match. Mid-match, there is no music most of the time, except for the taunt of the Disco Ball (my personal favorite)
Premium pack? P2W?
This game is not P2W, at least by my definition. Beyond the basic and premium upgrades, there are no microtransactions, and the only (gameplay-affecting) things unlocked by the upgrades are unlimited part storage (so you can obtain all of the parts) or instant access to all parts.
While the access to all parts is questionable, no gameplay-affecting part should take more than 10 rounds to get, assuming you lose half of them. You can get one of the most expensive ones in just 2 rounds! Meaning after about an hour or two of decent playtime (with a bit of luck), you'll have the tank that you can use for the rest of the game.
This is, of course, ignoring the fact that the default tank is actually a decent glass cannon
Cons
There's a nigh inescapable issue of unbalancing. This happens to all PVP games, really. There's always something. In this case, it's the Heavy Cannon.
The game's performance on lower end computers can be questionable in high-player matches, especially with the
Connection to servers can be slow depending on the ping and user specs, in worse cases it can take 30 seconds or as long as a minute.
It's hard to find a game that really scratches the itch in want of a multiplayer shooter in the customizable mech/robot niche genre. Too often do games rub you the wrong way, ruined by pay-to-win features (MWO + many others), too much customization allowing ugly player builds and unfixed bugs (Robocraft), or glaring balance issues and console exclusivity (Armored Core). Then there are other games, like Hawken, that hold a ton of promise, but the developers give up and change hands.
Gear Up is an endearing indie game that does its best to maintain balance and fun, and avoids pay-to-win. While Gear Up is a bit casual, and still in development, I have to say it is the closest game I have found to really enjoy and come close to scratching that itch of finding a solid mech shooter.
From time to time we encounter games that leaves us a mark. For some reason Gear Up is one of those(for me). Back when I only have around 20 games here in Steam. This is one of my most played game. And I installed and uninstalled a lot of games. But I never did uninstalled this one. It has this kind of feeling that makes you say "Let's go for one more round". And I really love the simplicity of it.
Edit: it appears the game has been updated and I love the fixes. The only stuff this game is missing are more maps, mutators, a scoreboard (what are the kill counts and assist for if you can't compare it with the others), and they should also make it so that when you target a player, you'll see not only their name but their rank as well. It would help!
Alright, I was pleasently surprised with this game so here's teh simple breakdown:
Pros:
-Fun, fast paced style of gameplay. Death results in a few short seconds and you drop back onto the field.
-Style/Attitude works well, its heavilty stylized to not look too realistic nor too cartoony. Its a little whimsical and I personally like that. It doesnt take itself too seriously and therefore is an easy pick up and learn to play sort of game.
-Decent variety of parts, game types, etc. You can build just about anything you'd like and play in a usual range of PvP game types, Deathmatch, with or without teams, capture the point. There may be a couple others I'd forgotten about but its all very standard.
-The tank controls are difficult but not too stupidly hard. They require some getting used to, but they make kills feel earned and skilled. One of a short list of PC titles I chose to play using keyboard and mouse rather than my xbox controller.
Cons:
-Pay to win; If you dont shell out the $20 price tag you have to earn your tank parts and customizations like in a normal game. Thats fine with me, but if you DO spend the money, every part in the game is instantly unlocked. There do not appear to be any game breaking destructive weapons that allow you to dominated if you have them, however the spirit of the game ruined by the random matches full of folks who spent the cash and have the best tank they could design.
-This means you better play with friends to have fun. Now I'm not saying you cant pick this game up and play against randoms and not have a good time. However logging in with a group of pals and building machines of war and playfully blowing eachother up is way better.
-The Host system is a little bit... not good. Its the usual idea, when you are in the lobby you can click a button to invite your list of friends. The problem is that it checks them off so you cannot resend the invite if there is an issue. And there were issues. A couple instances where players did not recieve the invite and the only fix was to back out and start a new room. There also is no 'ready up' system where the host can launch the game for everyone. Everyone in the lobby has to hit their respective 'start game' button before anything happens. Not game breaking, but clunky.
Final thoughts:
Yes. Download the free version, skype with some friends, and start building your tanks. It was absolutly worth the time and effort put in and was a lot of fun. I may even pay for the basic package that grants you extra colors to paint your tank in and unlimited storage so I can collect more than 9 parts at a time. The game looks good, feels good, and has some degree of depth to it that I enjoy (Like using a spider tank to clamber clumsily up the wall to avoid my enemies).
This game has no microtransactions.
Stats-wise, there is absolutely no difference between unpaid and paid players. Every part can be unlocked by unpaid players. Making a one-time purchase(!) for Basic makes them unlock faster and Premium unlocks them all. The paid versions also allow you to save vehicle loadouts.
The mechanics of the game are very impressive. The trade-offs between mobility, defense, speed, stability, and offense seem very well thought-out, although I wish they were better communicated in the buying menu.
Strategy and driving skill play a huge part in this game. Lighter, nimbler vehicles can literally drive circles around heavier opponents, such that the heavy turrets won't rotate quickly enough to keep up, and projectile travel time means that dodging enemy fire is entirely possible at long range. Powerups can quickly tip the scales in favor of players that remember to grab them, and using cover effectively, especially with weapons that have slow rates of fire, can make a world of difference in terms of survivability.
In short, this is a fun, ten-minute vehicle brawler with lots of depth and none of the bullshit that plagues many F2P titles. Recommended.
Amazing game for a something that is only just in alpha. The customization in this game is fantastic but the only thing I would say is that the weapons and turrets ect should all be more balanced out because at the moment you could have four extremely overpowered guns on the same tank or two turrets with four side weapons attached. A good way to get around this would be to make certain weapons more powerful if you only have one weapon or do the opposite by decreasing the damage of the weapons if you have about three turrets. Also, some of the weapons are much more powerful than other so I would recommend give the weapons there own pros and cons like in TF2 for example, but the game is still in alpha anyway so it will probably get balanced out later. A few bugs and glitches like when you try to snipe with bug legs the camara spazzes out but like I said before, the game is still in alpha and the bugs will probably get fixed.Overall I think that this game is fantastic and I highly recommend that you download it. :-)
