After playing for over 30 hours, I’m still stuck repeating the same seven missions. Lack of story-driven material combined with an incredibly small set of lackluster missions are Crossout’s biggest problem. MMOs are supposed to be story-driven, but players can hop into this game and play their hearts out without ever knowing a single detail about the story. “Why is that” you ask? Because I haven’t seen a single thing about the story since the very beginning. I wouldn’t have even known these details if I hadn’t read the story on the official website. What’s really sad is that few players will discover that the story takes a convoluted turn that involves alien involvement in human evolution, genetically-enhanced super-soldiers, and a multi-dimensional universe. Apparently, this means constantly striving to have the best vehicle and then blowing the crap out of anyone who even looks in your direction. Twenty years later, the survivors roam the wasteland searching for any way to survive. No one knew what caused the disease, but it was an apocalypse of epic proportions. Dubbed the “Crossout,” this epidemic killed millions and drove many survivors mad with intense headaches and hallucinations. In the not too distant future, 2021 to be exact, a mysterious viral epidemic quickly ravages the planet. While a few other features are done well, the mission structure is severely lacking and the MMO aspect reminds me of a stripped-down Yugo. This high-octane game’s motto is: Create Ride Destroy, and it doesn’t take long to discover that these are the most enjoyable aspects. I used to play Twisted Metal and Vigilante 8 for hours on end, so I jumped at the opportunity to review the new vehicular combat MMO, Crossout. Crafting the perfect vehicle takes some time, but once you take it out for its first spin, it feels ever so satisfying.Vehicle combat games used to be extremely popular, but they’ve since fallen by the roadside. And there is plenty of weaponry to unlock, ranging from machine guns and shotguns to sawblades and homing missiles. Your vehicle needs structural integrity, but also enough space to fit some weaponry onto the chassis. As I have stated in the previous paragraph, every part of your vehicle can be destroyed. The key to a great vehicle of war is decent basic design.
Riding and destroying things entertains most, but doing this with a vehicle you created from scratch rewards you with a feeling of utter joy.
Take part in PvP and PvE matches with self-made vehicles. The motto for this game is: craft, ride, destroy. But after fiddling around in the options menu, I fixed the problem and enjoyed myself ever since. Driving with the left stick, aiming with the right and shooting with the R2 button felt awkward. The only problem I encountered were the default controls. Or even better, target your opponent’s weapons, shoot them off and make your opponent completely helpless. Shooting of a wheel will make the vehicle less controllable, shooting of a few more wheels will immobilise it, making it easy pickings for enemy firepower. For example, each part of these self-made vehicles can be shot off.
