ASTRONEER

great planet base building game. Think something like minecraft but better. I give this a 9/10. if it was a little easier to dig ramps and maintain them with vehicles would be the cherry on top.

There are two faces to this game.

One is a great omage to The Little Prince and I think it tell a genuinely compelling story (albeit too many times through boring or repetitive missions).

The other face is just a really fun and good sandbox game. I easily got 100 hours of fun out of this game by the time I got bored. I know that reception of the new DLC is a bit ambivalent in the community, but I think the devs deserve every support they can get for sticking with this game through the years.

i fricking got at something i needed so bad and died cus of a stupid lash leaf but it is still cool =/

Astroneer is a charming, well-thought-out open world space survival game. My initial assumption was that this was a low-poly No Man's Sky clone, however, after playing my first couple hours, I realized it was much much more. The game leans towards resource management, and more importantly, inventory management. Never before had I played a survival game and felt satisfied with how I structured my "chest". The crafting mechanics are snappy and progress is steady and very satisfying. The devs also put a great amount of time and care into details. Do NOT place hydrazine in a portable smelter because you ran out of inventory space... you've been warned.

game is dope. It doesn't take as long to finish as my hours suggest. I have played multiple playthroughs and attempted to 100% it. Still, not a short game. Pretty grindy but loads of fun.

This game is fun, pleasant and have great aesthetics.
You have many options to build and customize your base, and it is fun to explore the different planets on the solar system.
I would definitely recommend to play it coop with your friends, there is where this game really shines!

My friend placed a portal from a quest near our base and using it gives a full screen advertisement to every player currently in the game to buy the DLC. It's an eye sore constantly making sound and there is no way to remove the giant advertisement next to our base without buying the DLC. This is absolutely atrocious design and permanently blemished our save file after 16 hours of playing. We payed money for this game we shouldn't be punished with a constant reminder that there's DLC because we wanted to see what a quest had.

Great game! It definitely exceeded my expectations and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys space-esque world exploration. I'd give it a solid 8.5/10.

Upon first glance I didn't think much about this game and looked like a quick port from mobile to PC. Upon purchasing the game, playing with friends, and making an effort to understand the user interface better turns out this is a pretty decent game. Astroneer will either appeal to you or won't. It's not as dangerous or hard as other survive / craft builders, but leans a little more towards casual play. Nothing will kill ya except for heights and certain plants.

Astroneer's gameplay is actually quite rock solid for what it is. The reason (for me) is that the user interface was done extremely well. Rather than encumbering the player with a loaded inventory, everything is readily available upon a click or a drag. I found this part of the game absolutely unique and an integral part in the gameplay mechanics. Items feels quick to grab and it all feels natural. That being said, the rest of the game follows any other crafter or builder. The difference here is the player is only able to make complete components rather than sections. The player is able to place where these components go, connect them to power, and rotate them in any way the player would like. Research needs to be done by the player (or by a machine) in order to gain research points. Once enough research points are earned the player can use that to unlock further structures that can refine materials, unlock new carriable or craft able items, and new vehicle unlocks like a floating surfboard or VTOL.

Exploring is interesting. At first the world is a little much to take in as its completely open and not many markers appear. Like I said prior there isn't any heads-up or much to look for or indicate as the player plays. There is a useful index that the player can pull out (and use to unlock other components) in addition to the player being able to access the mission logs through the landing pad. This sort of gives the player a little direction in what to do or where to go. There are different biomes, planets, and moons. Of course, common materials are on every planet (amounts vary), but more specific rare refining materials will vary planet to planet. Although the planets themselves are randomly seeded, there is a consistency in the solar system with the amount of planets and moons. The player is allowed to travel between the planets, but travel wasn't as exciting as I thought it would be. The player casually points to a planet they want to land on (hopefully ensuring they have enough materials packaged before they leave their current planet). There is no free flying of the sort, only vehicles on the planet.

The visuals and graphics are suitable to the games atmosphere. There is absolutely no user interface either than the UI directly used in gameplay. Sort of like Hydroneer, the player has to plan their moves with their limited inventory spots. Instead of pulling up a menu to store items, items are stored right from playing. For example, if there is an item on the ground the player wants to store, they can do that either by picking it up and placing it in their backpack or simply pressing another button (in addition to grab) to quickly store it. Energy and oxygen are both displayed on the back of the backpack. The worlds don't feel too barren, but there aren't any insane views that can be found in the game. The sounds and music were also well done. Players can pick up on their surroundings by listening to the different noises that the game makes. The music was soothing and pleasant to listen to. Didn't notice too much repetitive sounds, noises, or music that some games like to do. This domain overall was done well.

Overall, I would recommend this game on sale, but I would really do my homework on it to see if this is the type of game you'd want to play. The bit of automation that is available is pretty cool, the interplanetary travel is cool, but it is all surface level and limited. I was a little disappointed in how much the player was required to jump planet to planet to get one or two bars of something to craft/create. Mind you - it is nice that not a 1000 pieces of something is required to craft. It is more towards the casual side of crafting/building/colony types, but it still offers enough challenge especially as the planets become increasingly difficult. There are objects in the world that can hurt the player, but there is no creature or storm that will pose an immediate threat to the player. The worlds could've used some sort of creatures (in my opinion) just to fill in the space, or perhaps add another layer of gameplay to the game. It's a good game, just makes me feeling like there is something or a few things missing to take it to the next level. Really sucks the surfboard is unlocked later in the game along with the VTOL. Pretty much beat the game before I unlocked these two. Fun with friends, but some friends felt the game got too repetitive or boring too fast. It was around the 30 hour mark I was like, "OK, may go back to playing something else. I've figured out the formula".

RATING: 8.0/10

I've 100% the game, and holy shit.. it's so addicting, Like, REALLY addicting! A friend got me this game begging me to try it out and I do not regret it's SO GOOD!

It's loop is enjoyable and simple, it's calm and is task oriented, and the art-style is fun and goofy, that's what I love about this game.

ALSO PLEASE CAN WE HAVE MORE PETS I'M BEGGING YOU!!

I had high hopes for this game as I just finished playing Planet Crafter and enjoyed it. I just find the 3rd person view too frustrating to move the character and get him to point the right direction. I don't fault the game but more myself for not being able to figure it out. I can't recommend the game as I was not able to spend enough time playing without getting frustrated but unfortunately you have to pick Yes or No to leave a review. Maybe one day they will add 1st person view for dorks like me.

Incredible Game i played it years ago on PS4 and played it again this year, pretty chill game however it is not really replayable in my opinion

Its a beautiful game - the graphic design is mesmerising... so much to do, any way you want to do it.
But the small bad - is bad.
The camera/mouse picking issue is still gawd awful, as is vehicles left unattended falling through the ground.
Imagine you've spent weeks building up a base and in a momentary lapse of memory forget to park your rover on unmanipulated ground (as former experience taught you) only to return to your base to be greeted with a scene out of the Philadelphia Experiment - if your lucky. If your unlucky it will have completely vanished to gawd knows where and you'll have to initiate a SAR operation underground and if your lucky enough to find it - you'll have to dig it out and then navigate your way through unfamiliar terrain back up to the surface carving up the place in the process.
The horrendous camera-drift/mouse-picking issue will see your language descend into the sewer fast. The Hold to Rotate doesn't fix this because it is a different problem - its the miniscule final camera drift just as you aim to select an item your trying to move and voila! completely fumble it. It seems to be a simple camera auto drift timing issue that some new setting could address. It is infuriating. Surely - even after 5+ years there is a simple way to fix this.

But I'd still say buy it. It is a superb game. Just so disappointing that these serious issues haven't been addressed in years inspite of the reems of feedback.

2nd thoughts -
Infact after posting this initial review I had a tractor disappear on me and had to go on an hour long SAR under ground in some treacherous terrain - fell thru a few holes - had to go back up to the surface to get packagers - but it was kinda fun.
I would have just left it there and printed off a new one - but you can hear it rattling around down there and its kinda annoying being reminded of it weeks later when your running around your base doing something else - so I had to go and get it - LoL!
I'm on a new playthru - this time keeping my bases to minimum ground manipulation in the hope to avoid disappearing rovers.
It doesn't happen that often though..
I hope some solution can be found to the minuscule auto-refocus issue when selecting/picking-up items, but it isn't a deal breaker imho.
Something like "Turn Off Autofocus Smoothing" option or something...
Also - the new garages/parking bays seem to be hard-locked like the teleport gates.
I would usually build a base around a Teleport gate and park my stuff on that which keeps them safe. I haven't tried this with the new mission Parking bays but I expect they are hard locked to the world like the gates. Or another fix might be - being able to Lock/Unlock vehicles like the way you do with machine platforms which keeps them stable to the ground.
All in all its a superb game, highly re-playable and I highly recommend it.

STEAM really needs a neither yes or no option.

I think this game is really great!

I like everything about it, but I cannot play it because, try as I have, I've been unable to lock the mouse to my main monitor which results in my mouse being on the other screen without me knowing leading to all kinds of deaths and misclicks and launching apps on my other screen, etc.

I just can't play it this way.

I've tried all the fixes and now I am just tired of trying.

So, if this isn't annoying to you, get the game.

I am going to have to uninstall and shelve this title until either the devs add that option or I can find some other fix for it. I am really open to try anything, because I really like this game and want to play it.

I won't recommend it though which is unfair a little, but it seems like this problem has been going on for YEARS now and a lot of players have asked for a lock to primary screen option.

If ever there is an option added to lock the mouse or someone finds a fix that actually works, I'll change this to Positive.

There's a lot I like about this game. The terrain deformation system is super interesting and mining resources feels great. I also think the diegetic nature of items and inventories is awesome and super unique. I think it's cool how there's basically no "screens" except for what you can find in the pause menu - everything else is actually a part of the world and can be interacted with pretty seamlessly. The way the different "tiers" of items are handled in this system is also really clever.

My main issue with the game is the amount of waiting it expects you to do. Some of the machines I've worked with in this game are really slow, even at full power, not to mention their speed when they're NOT at full power. I know you're probably expected to set up automation and do something else while stuff is processing but I disagree with that design choice tbh. The power issue also makes it so certain machines are significantly less portable, since you also have to transport a way to reliably power them if you don't wanna wait for ages for them to process.

I've also had some issues with the controls, although I'm unsure if this is an actual design problem or a skill issue tbh. With how many functions are bound to left-click, I sometimes end up doing one thing when I'm trying to do another, like opening my backpack or pinging a spot on the ground when I'm trying to pick something up. Pinging is obviously harmless but opening my backpack on accident has been pretty annoying. I just use the hotkey for the backpack anyway, so I think an option to click through the player instead of opening the backpack would be nice.

This is a really fun game for exploration, gathering resources, and base building. The unique geometry allows for some spectacular game play, but also has one particular challenge. Creating a flat building area is very difficult! You can tell the devs tried to make this work. Avoid this game if you get annoyed building on uneven terrain.

Great game, very fun to play with others, some bugs and glitches where things fall through the ground or launch into space for no reason but those things are very funny with friends.

Good fun with the family, except when the kids decide to wander off and die in a crevice.

"Daddy, i died"

A phrase i've heard countless times now. I give up trying to find the body and salvage what I can. All the tool boosters and whatnot. Just give your kid a battery and a couple oxygen tanks and send them on missions to gather resources.

As for myself, I find the game amusing and calming. It's not super stressful and once you get the hang of it, it can be quite calming.

Just be mindful of your real life and real life responsibilities as this game can suck up your time. The game is quite affordable so don't be shy if you like space themed survival games.

If you are looking at this game after playing Space Engineer, then this woud be a much simpler version of that. If you're done with Astroneer, then have a look at Space Engineer. Both are related but I like the calming simplicity of Astroneer when comparing the two.

This game will make you forget who you are and where you are. It sucks you in for hours at a time. The game is beautiful and it makes me feel like a kid again. My only complaint is that the final couple of missions are rather tedious but other than that it is a 10/10

This game is great. If you want a planetary romp around a destructible world where your one goal is to get as many resources as possible, then Astroneer is the game for you. Also I just really enjoyed the game, so give it a go.

I used to dislike this game, but as I played it more and more my opinion on the game began to change. Astroneer is all about building up your technology and unlocking more and more things. The core gameplay loop is finding resources, unlocking things, and building them with those resources. While that may sound boring, Astroneer somehow makes keeps it interesting. I have no idea how they do it, but the game rarely gets boring. Theres always something to do, and always something to work towards. The artstyle is also another part of the game that I really enjoyed. Theres something quite charming about the low-poly style that really fits it well. The game really has a certain charm to it that really makes it distinct.

7.5/10

I've played Astroneer since the Beta was first available on Microsoft Xbox. Having recently purchased a PC license in the Winter sales, I'm pleasantly surprised to see it run on my "modern-ish" Linux PC under Proton 9..0.4. While single player and story mode has been fun on the Xbox, Multiplayer Astroneer with friends is great. I now enjoy playing with my teenagers who also recently purchased their own PC licenses. Great times ahead.

Extremely fun and cute. However it is fairly buggy

You can burn down forests and cause mass extinction to plants and animals just like are great grandparents in america

I keep coming back to the game, the logic and the game play loop is addicting. However I do really wish there was a mode where there was one huge planet instead of several smaller ones, or as a compromise have one huge starting planet with all resources available and still have the other planets that are rich with other resources. Usually my game play loop ends when I leave the first planet since I don't want to rebuild my base 5 more times. Still a wonderful game. 8/10

Great game, played it with my partner. There was rarely any bugs. We found it tough to figure out controls etc but most of that was our fault lol.

this is a great game and one of the best games i have ever played! keep up the great work!

21 hours in 3 days. I blink and turn around realising I've not spoken with my partner also playing it for like 40 or so minutes. What is this witchcraft of a game? I expect to burn out hard on this but what a fun time it'll be.

This game started as an incredibly fun experience. The mechanics, exploration, and potential for creativity kept me engaged for hours. However, my enthusiasm quickly waned due to persistent and game-breaking bugs—specifically involving cars.

The main issue is that cars often sink into the ground, effectively vanishing and causing me to lose progress. Additionally, when I dig paths for the vehicles, they barely move and often just spin in place, making traversal and resource transportation a frustrating ordeal. These bugs aren’t just minor annoyances; they undermine the core gameplay experience and leave me feeling like my efforts are wasted.

What’s even more disappointing is the developers’ approach. Instead of addressing these glaring issues, they seem more focused on rolling out DLCs. While additional content might be exciting, it’s hard to justify buying DLC when the base game feels broken in key areas. In fact, the lack of attention to these bugs has not only discouraged me from buying the DLC but also made me stop playing the game entirely.

This game has so much potential, but until the developers prioritize fixing these critical issues, I can’t recommend it.

The controls are utterly baffling and extremely frustrating. Controller support is really poorly thought out. The flow of what to do in the game is really unclear, we spent half the short time we played wondering where to find things and what to do next

I love to dig holes with my friends (see my terraria review)
This game also lets me dig holes with my friends and boy I love that.
Digging holes is verrrryyyy satisfying too, even better than digging holes in minecraft! (not to pit two queens against each other)
I think there is other stuff you can do in this game too but I don't care about that. I ask for medium canisters and return them full and get carried to other places to do more of that same stuff. I make tethers and haul all the things back. You like big rocks? Small round white things? Weird shaped things? Ore? Whatever I find is yours. Now tell me good job please, I have to go back out there. I yearn for the mines.

I found the tutorial lacking basic tips (e.g., which button to use to get out your gun tool - or the fact that there even was a gun tool to begin with). The first two hours of gameplay were full of frustration as I combed through their in-game help pages, the wiki, and players' YouTube videos to figure out how to do basic stuff. I admit to not being the quickest at picking stuff up but learning this game just made me feel stupid. I dunno, I'm sure it's a good game once you get into it but by the time I had the basics figured out I just wasn't interested anymore.

At first some controls may feel a little odd, but very open and friendly for people who just want to relax and explore. Unfortunately not really any direct multiplayer servers to just join and let other strangers come in, but in the discord server you can ask others to play with you.

Not much else to say except it is a very pleasant experience.

9/10 (please give more multiplayer options)

Игра 10 из 10 но я потерял 2 мини РТГ, ховерборд, перносной генератор кислорода и 2 гидрозина, улучшение третьего уровня бура, модификатор большых участков из-за ГРЁБОНОВО урона от падение на ховерборде НА ХОВЕРБОРДЕ! НА ЛЕТАЮЩЕЙ ДОСКЕ! На ЛЕТАЮЩЕЙ! Где логика? Она же ЛЕТАЮЩАЯ КАРЛ! ЛЕТАЮЩАЯ!! ПОЧЕМУ Я ПОЛУЧИЛ УРОН!!?? Самое интересное что потом я здох от плотоядных языков и метка смерти пропала. В итоги я остался голым на Визаний... Я ОЧЕНЬ люблю эту планету ОЧЕНЬ...

Clumsy controls, incredibly clumsy camera, no labels on anything (just toddler-style iPad icons), and the tutorial/encyclopedia just lists the keyboard shortcuts with still images. And Q is how you access your inventory. Really? Was this thing made by Martians? Q??? If you're going to make non-intuitive game systems, put some work into the tutorial so that there is a bare minimum of guidance.

2nd mission in the game (The first is to click a button in order to get the items for the 2nd mission. Which button? Press stuff until you figure it out because it'll put hair on your chest or something.) :
Oxygenator unpacked and installed? OK, no problem. Connect the printer (which was larger than the uninstalled oxygenator, a car-sized habitat module once installed) to the habitat's power supply? Fair enough, but how? After messing around for 10 minutes trying to install the thing to the habitat or activate the plug-looking items on the sides of the habitat, I managed to plug this cow-sized module into my backpack somehow (it shrank by a factor of 20, magically) and the quest completed. I don't even know if that's what I was supposed to do, but I didn't care at that point, because it was so stupid that I uninstalled the game. If they can't be bothered to make the second quest in the game's text sensible, I'm not even remotely interested. How about "Install the printer in your backpack" ???? Or put a little glowing square around the spot in your backpack where it's supposed to go?

There are so many of these games that it doesn't make sense to spend your time with one that is this clunky.

The developers added a DLC that has put a Glitch Portal in the middle of my base. It cannot be moved or removed unless I buy the DLC. I dislike being held hostage for an expansion that gets terrible reviews.

Decent game, plenty to do early on but then eventually you hit a lull where it just becomes a finish the missions and achievements grind. Story is decent but its all reading so if you dont like reading, you wont get any story. The reading is just small to medium crew logs so they aren't terrible. I tend to zone out when its just pages of text and a couple seemed to be getting there but for the most part they were fine.

The crafting system is annoying, having to scroll through every single item every time you want to craft something is a huge pain and causes other issues like if your storage is full and you are scrolling the items attach to the printer then once you hit the next time they just fall to the ground sometimes going under the foundations. How hard is it to show a list and let us select the recipe we want.

The power network is also buggy. I have 150 excess power between generated and stored but sometimes after coming back to the planet my power generation doesn't seem to add up and all of my stuff is running in low power mode or draining the batteries. Sometimes the batteries flicker between charging and discharging every tick and it gets super annoying hearing the sound. The only fix seems to be to disconnect everything and reconnect it.

Other areas of the game feel like they are also incomplete. There are sensors that let you turn things on and off based on certain factors but its always buggy unless you are in range. For instance you can setup a storage sensor to activate a furnace to create more carbon when the storage empties. If you go out of render range it still uses up all of the carbon for power generation but the sensor doesn't send the signal and the furnace never fires up. Crane seems pointless, most of the vehicles are pointless on any planet other than Sylva because the terrain is so torn up. The VTOL is ok on those planets but sucks hydrazene fuel like crazy and landing the damn thing is sometimes impossible because the terrain isn't level. 1 hydrazene for the vtol gets you 1/4 of the way across a planet, 3 hydrazene gets you from planet to planet 12 times, how does that make sense.

The automatic extractors bug out all the time. You place it on a resource location and its a huge node so the green bar is basically maxed out, after a container or two of goods it stops working and you have to pick it up and put it back down again.

The train system needs more options too like being able to select what station to send the train to, by default the train will just go forward or backwards based on the pathway and junction positions. You can automate the stations to call for a train when certain sensors are tripped but if you are just out and about and you want to send your train back to the main station to get unloaded there is no way to do that except using a gateway to teleport back to home base and recall the closest train, but the closest train might not be the train you want and there isn't a way to select a train or name them or anything.

Bottom line is the game is good but in the long run the flaws start to add up and get annoying.

I don't get this game which is maybe why I don't like it much. I find it difficult to progress and to achieve goals and find the controls not particularly intuitive.

I love how this game is space themed and I love adventure type games where you can collect materials to make a buggy to explore the planet.

Didnt expect much from it to be honest. Just a cheap game to hang around and explore a new genre for a few hours.
IT WENT FAR BEYOND MY EXPECTATİON....
10/10 game for being able to be played for atleast a couple hundred hours since there is so much to do and so much to automate.
Tho i wish there was more to do when you kinda get to the end game...

This has to be one of the top games in my library by far. And for a very simple reason.

It's a great game with a great progression system. Gathering resources and making things with them is as easy on the first planet, as it is on the last planet. The story is a fun light hearted one which doesn't tire the player out.

Without saying too much, the game simply works. researching new things and creating them isn't tedious at all, and that won my heart. I highly recommend it especially if you're an adult who doesn't have hours upon hours available to grind in game in order to progress.

Props to System Era Softworks!

It's terrible. Don't look at my playtime and achievements. 3 words to describe this game would be: repetitive, grindy, empty.

Off the top of my head, my most turnoffs of the game:

• Camera would be the worst feature of the game, constant struggle to maintain your view right won't leave you while playing. It's literally the worst camera I've met so far in games.
  
• Smart snap system for maintaining objects felt unique and interesting at first, but got old and annoying really quick. Good luck enjoying it on a controller, particularly to lower resolution players.
  
• Objects stuck, fall through, and despawn under the terrain due to collision bugs.
  
• Game has planet "rovers" that are in fact bricks on wheels, not rovers. For some unknown reason developers decided to give each and every small object collision check for your rover to get stuck on.
  
• Compass can only show so many markers, so when you leave yours handmade beacons or try to look for a death icon, they won't show up because infinite quest and seasonal event markers will be prioritised.
  
• Out of 7 planets present, in the end you only need to visit 3 to unlock top gear. Each one of them feels ultra empty, there is nothing interesting to explore. Resources, resources and more resources. The only structures you'll find would be scrapped, broken stations that you guessed it, have somewhat rare resources, if you're lucky.
  
• If you decide to colonise every planet you'll be basically tasked to play absolutely the same meta queue of tasks as on any other planet. There are some minor differences in them, biggest being unique resources present on each planet, but those differences provide no variety, challenges or changes in your gameplay, you will repeat everything step for step as if you would start a new save file but with unlocked gear. Yes you can bring equipment from other planets, but it only reinforces the statement.
  
• Other 4 planets, as my explanation suggests, exist to provide grindy fetch quests. There are 4-6 same tasks that are needed to be repeated on each planet, that would be the local quest system. Nothing more to say.
  
• Besides bigger "quest", game keeps spamming hand-holding progression tasks - craft this, craft that. More to that, those are constantly rewarded with same or even better tier gear. Instead of actually progressing and evolving, game provides your with those for free.
  
• Optimisation lacks.
  
[*] Concluding, simply so many small QoL features missing it makes it quite frustrating to play at times.

ENG : This game is more enjoyable when played with your friends because that's how you get the most fun out of it. After all, how far can you play alone without having fun? It's a game that should be played together with your friends; I recommend it as a fun game to play with them.

TR : Bu oyunu arkadaşlarınızla oynancak keyfini çıkaracağınız çıtırını çıkartabilceğiniz bir oyundur arkadaşlarla deha keyiflidir o sebepten alanlara tavsiye ederim oyun tek başınıza nereye kadar keyif alırsınız orasını bilemem o yüzden bu kararı size bırakıyorum.

idk what setting is messed up but every time i play this game i seem to teleport 2 3 hours into the future. every single time.

What do you mean the credits are rolling we JUST got the flipping train system up and running.

Its so fun, Basically no learning curve except for the platform stuff. Me and my friend loved this so much we are playing it almost every day

highly addicting. if you like other survival/crafting games this one is a hit. while it shares many similarities with NMS, astroneer has its own atmosphere that sets it apart. Great game.

Ive played this game in co-op for 30 hrs so far and overall its very unique, chill and relaxing. There are loads of stuff to research, craft and explore. There's also the "Astropedia" feature that lets you check at any time given where you can find a specific resource, how to craft it (smelt or chemistry lab) and on which planet to find it. This is something I am extremely grateful for since the game is based on crafting and finding resources. The one thing I would say keeps me back from recommending the game to more friends is this very, VERY annoying vehicle glitch. I first started by crafting a tractor and some trailers. so I can carry big-sized resources back to base, and my tractor would non-stop get stuck in flat ground, get swallowed up whole by the ground while driving and evaporate or just flip on its back for no reason or any obstacles in my way. For this reason I crafted a buggy (the other car) which was working fine in the beginning but was suddenly swallowed up by the ground on another planet I went exploring, where I also ran out of oxygen looking for it and died. Needless to say I lost both cars and trailers, resources i was carrying and my patience. I'm begging you fix the vehicle glitches so I can actually explore the different planets without having the constant worry that my car will vanish for no reason and eventually ran out of oxygen and lose everything in my backpack. Exploring is a major factor for the game and crucial to progress.
