Hated that mounts are locked under paid DLC. It should have been in base game.
Now, you gotta buy this to have contents that is coming this October.
This is not worth it. Don't buy.

Good game til max level. After that, you have to grind to get max GS like other MMOs, but all dungeons are dead, and open world elite chest runs are dead. Even Outpost Rush and Wars are dead.

Both PvE and PvP are dead, and AGS are trying to move from PC to console.

Don't buy this game. Play something else

Early Access Review
Do not purchase this game - and here's why:

No Players

Islands of Nyne is 50 players Battle Royale game. The minimum players to start a match is 10. The thing is, that there are not enough players globally, so people who want to play the game beg in the official Discord server, like 'x people in NA/EU Solo'. You will just stand in the lobby longer than the actual match.

Slow Update and Almost No Communication

The update before free weekends happened at August 29th. And the major update came at November 29. It took 3 months. If you check the Steam page and you can find 2 devblogs, but that was all. And first devblog was very vague that some players hated it and actually stopped playing it. (Mystery Feature X). Second one was okay, but the trello, it took like a month for public when devs announced that they will release nice timeline. What about now? Another silence.

False Promises

2 more maps (in Steam Store page) - Nah, they confirmed that they can't make 3 maps total because it's impossible for them.
Hoverboard (in Trello) - Nope, still testing it
Another 2 classes (Support, Scout. Also in Trello)- Nope, still testing it
64 players (in Trello)- Nope, they said they will increase during f2p when it gets stable. Still 50
Surveys after patch roll is rolled out - Nope, haven't got one.

Weird Update

They were being silent for 3 months because they are busy working on the update. What we got were FWOOP sound bug (FWOOP sound on everywhere on the map. You can find it on Shroud's stream), unfinished contents (is class system that noticeable if there is only 1 class? lol), and crashes. Nice hard work I guess. Even tournament delayed because of crashes and many players who joined the tourney rage quitted.

Community Handling

Join their Discord. Many people saying 'go to f2p'. And devs & mods are ignoring it because they heard it everyday. And they haven't give any answers other than 'soon'. If someone compares other game and give some feedback/criticism, mods and fanbois just bashing him and the game that used to compare so hard. For example, if someone brings up PUBG or Fortnite as an example, mods and fanboi goes "PUBG OMEGALUL" "Fortnite OMEGALUL" "♥♥♥♥ game, go back to ur game, kid" while IoN is doing totally worse than those game. It was totally not understandable.

Conclusion

If devs and community were good, then this situation would not happen, but devs are not listening to community and mods are bashing 90% of feedbacks/criticisms, only trying to take fanboi comments.
