I've Been Waiting a Long Time For This Fortress Building Defense Game - Outpost Infinity Siege

Hard to imagine the meatbags lost the war when the servitors just slowly marched towards you and didn't even bother to fire projectiles at distances beyond 10 feet...

Huge thanks to @Splattercatgaming for featuring our game! We've received tons of feedback from players and are working hard to address issues including performance optimization, game pacing, and the co-op experience. And we have rolled out several patches on launch day to tackle the most pressing concerns. Thanks for your feedback and continued support—we're committed to polishing the game with your help!

I find it hard to believe that this AI took over the earth when the opening wave of enemies don't even shoot

Having 77% negative reviews on steam doesn't give me the confidence to try it out.

Top-tier ideas with unfortunate execution. Love the concept and going out on a limb. Really admire taking the risks they did. Just wish they’d delivered something more polished. Hope we get better outpost-likes in the future. Would be stoked if a team like Arrowhead played with ideas like these.

thumbnail made me think it was the matrix for a sec lol

The in mission combat with the tower defense reminds me of Sanctum 2 a game from a long, long time ago. Protect the core build defenses in between waves, fight the wave alongside your towers once the wave starts.

I like the way you deconstruct the things that work and those that don't in this game.

The gameplay and combat looks fantastic. But I agree with you, it should have had another year or so of filling out and polish.

I can’t stop thinking “These are not the droids you’re looking for” every time the hand comes up.

I genuinely love this game. It's a pretty damn slow start but once you get to "normal" difficulty missions it starts to seriously, seriously shine. There is no other game out there like it and it hits everything I love to do in a game. It's almost like it was made for me, haha. Just have to set expectations. I'd kind of compare it to something like Earth Defense Force. The voice-acting and story are terrible (even though EDF is in on the joke and Outpost isn't), there is plenty of jankiness, but you can't get what you can from either of them anywhere else. They focused hard on the gameplay loop and the gameplay is fantastic. Love building and testing out my outpost and the variety of systems.

This is likely more of a polish thing than they have room for on their plate however, I'd love for them to do anything else with the enemy pathing, make them group into swarms, make their ai idle or move erratically like they're searching, really anything. It's hard to describe exactly how jarring it is to me to see a mass of enemies trickle forward single file in an open 3d space, it shouldn't bother me as much as it does but it is easily my biggest issue over any of the bugs and jank.

Been interested in that one for quite some time. Thanks for the video. Quite informative!

Look, I absolutely respect anyone that wants hard as nails combat, but some of us enjoy games with less difficulty because while we like a specific genre of game, we don't need to feel like we're gonna get our buttholes torn open by every enemy we come across. Must like how people that wanted Pacific Drive to be some shooty shooty bang bang game but it was thoroughly satisfying for loot gremlins like me. Just enough danger while still scratching a much needed itch. Not every game has to be Dark Souls levels of difficulty.

I for one, welcome our new robot overlords

It sounds like this game is so close to greatness. If only the developer would put in the additional time to address the issue you've highlighted.

Love it. I'll be keeping an eye on it for sure, watching for updates. It clearly has enormous potential.

Glad I watched this, I had no idea how much of it was going to be solo resource gathering.

Ive got almost 20 hours into this so far and I am really enjoy myself. I played one of those playtests and knew what I was getting into though.

1:47 "There is some bugs..." No shit dude, they take up half the screen 😝
