Eximius: Seize the Frontline

It's a different kinda RTS but it's pretty good imo

Important: It is a good game for PVP players with some spice, not for me. ALSO IT REQUIRES EPIC FOR ONLINE PLAY AND PROFILE LEVELING AND STUFF.

I recommend this game because I did enjoy it for the hours that I played, but I already exhausted all the fun of it.

Below are my observations, and things to note/keep in mind.

---
It is clearly evident that the game was meant for PVP online matches, since there is more emphasis on cosmetics and missions, be it pass or purchase or quest. The tanks get stuck on stairs, the weapons have no fire-modes. You can only change them through ONE SINGULAR upgrade per weapon. You miss-clicked? Time to repurchase your ENTIRE WEAPON + upgrade.

The game looks nice. Music is eh. I will shelf it for a few months/years. Maybe more stuff will get added and optimized.

The AI borks/locks itself to the Base/supply vehicle. It does not LEAVE unless you hard-set a command. Even if they recently resupplied and/or changed suits. I also noticed how they sometimes stand still for a time, varying from few secs to outright minutes. This happens to all non-player entities. Pathfinding is sometimes borked too.

This Happened to me in OFFLINE mode. I refused the Epic game-store connection. Why the hell we need more of that crap is beyond me.

There are limitations to ranges. A bullet has NO- fall off, it just vaporizes after a SET distance. Plasma and I think electro do have fall off.

There is no prone, no crouch-sliding, and there is a hard-set lock on mobility behaviour. AI is intentionally borked, or not-yet developed to the fullest capability.
- You can't toggle fire-mode, only 'changing' a weapon.
- All classes are almost the same, the only difference is an 'ability' that gives both factions 5 PVP oriented, with one PVE MOB focused, spec.

- There are no loadouts.
- You can't control vehicles.
- You can't direct-control an NPC or force a certain behavioural pattern, like for example I want 2 AI leaders in my team to ONLY be stealth focused. It simply does not exist.
- Usual monetization/pass slop works and is implemented. MEH.

All in all, I personally don't like this game a lot, because I am a single-player enjoyer that loves modding. But I do understand and try to see how this game might attract party-based online leaning people.

NO MODDING, MODS. MEH.

It's basically Battlefield/Battlefront with base building but 5v5 and the rest are just bots/ai including the commander. Was hoping there were maps with teams like a team 2v2 (four teams, 5 players each team), 3v3 (six teams, 5 players each team) and a 4v4 (eight teams, 5 players each); even better a free for all.

GG lke this game

I guess the game is good tho I wish that you can manage to pause the game on offline mode

Please market this game. im desperate for a player base

I would do anything to get to play a full 5v5 match with skilled players. Sadly, 15 hours is high even for peak hours. I am still holding out hope that this game will get its moment to shine, I have friends that want to buy it and play but share similar feelings with me. The biggest problem is that no one knows about this game. It needs some big youtuber/twitch streamer to talk about it or some well timed ad launch.

I love this game. I dearly wish they had more players and had the resources they deserve for supporting this game so long. It's a genuinely great game that could use polish, but can't because of their shitty former publisher scamming them. I wish them all the best and will enjoy playing the game. I'll but the DLC when I can even if it's just callsigns.

fun but micro heavy for commander

The game has alot of potential. Work on the graphics and movement of the players. Improve the weapon design especially while aiming. Improve the movement of players so it doesn't feel like a sliding brick by applying some friction and camera dynamics when moving.
The A.I. just stands still most of the time in the middle of the battle field. Apply constant interaction between A.I and enemy and map objects. When a player orders a suit gear, add more cinematics when putting the suit on just like in "titan fall 2". The buildings can look way much better and some buildings should be accessible to get to roof tops. As a commander, Allow base building without the need of an engineer which gives quicker interaction on the map just like "Nuclear Dawn". Overall its a great game as an RTS and FPS which is rare to find this type of genre.

I really want this game to take off, its incredibly fun. If anyone remembers C&C renegade, nuclear dawn, or anything of the like, its very very similar. Its worth the purchase price, it just lacks the player base. Its a 5v5 game pvp, it has ai squad leaders, one of the five can become the commander. Commander builds npc units, can assign npc units to player squad leaders, conquer strategic points on the maps, commander builds defenses, resupply points, get gear, etc.

The exosuits are all unique and have some fun abilities, its definitely worth a go, even if its mostly 1vai

Cash Grab game. Fun for a bit then gets boring Devs more concerned about cosmetics than adding maps,units,weapons etc........

If this is really the state they left the game in it deserves its death
