About This Game You are the pilot of a highly maneuverable fighter ship codenamed the “Fury”, after the Furies of ancient Mythology. The Fury is made possible by a super conductive core, fused of lava from beneath the surface of Earth and “cryo-lava” from Titan, one of the moons of Venus. Utilizing a newly discovered elemental binding, it has become possible to create a “Geocore” that can generate enough power to drive superconductive technology. An insanely powerful drive system allows the ship and pilot to create a magnetic sphere in which the ship can move in any direction freely and with no inertia. It is up to you to pilot this advanced machine to investigate the mines, where highly advanced robots and remote mining machinery have been deployed to gather the elements needed to make more Geocores. Nothing has been heard from either the robot crews or the mining machines in one of the main facilities, and you have been called upon to investigate. Gameplay: 6DOF gameplay, setting the player free from the floor and allowing full translation and rotation on all 6 axes. A focus on balanced multiplayer competition with stable and well tested netcode. Single player where you stalk and be stalked by killer machines. The action is intense, the skill level is high, and the rewards are lifetime friends and enemies. Join the ranks of the toughest pilots in the world, enjoy the company of veterans who can and will show you the ropes, and be proud of your status as part of the elite 6DOF community. 7aa9394dea Title: GeocoreGenre: Action, Indie, Early AccessDeveloper:Anarchy InteractivePublisher:Anarchy InteractiveRelease Date: 31 Jul, 2015 Geocore Download Pc Games 88 Its fairly early in development, but what is here as far as multiplayer is really neat. if you get this and get bothered by your vehicle rolling to reorient itself, go in the options menu(its called config on the main menu) and turn off the little option for autolevel. i did this, and it made the game alot more enjoyable. i also recommend looking at the keybind section if your curious about the controls. im pretty sure a tutorial will be added at some point as well that might go more in depth about things like that. It also has controller support, although i only played it with keyboard and mouse but a friend of mine that plays with controller said it was ok. also, in the single player, if you want to get into the actual missions and stuff, you have to fly to a smaller building on the surface. it will have a door in the roof to enter the missions. this will likely be improved in a update though. at the time of this writing, the game is also in the process of becoming more optimized so that it can run better on more machines. but it seems to work fine on things as low as a 1050. but i dont know anyone that has anything lower than that who has this game, so you might have luck with a lesser computer as well. be sure to check the description of the game for more info. it might have been updated since the time of me writing this review. if i had to give it a number score, i would give it a \u00e6 out of \u00fe.. I really wanted to like Geocore, but I'm dissapointed that the current state of the game. I just can't recommend anyone who loves Descent to even pay even at a discount (like during the current sale). I do hope that it will get better, but for now I can't deal with the twitchy control on any input device.. Being early access it's hard to tell. But the groundwork is certainly there. This is one title Descent\/Forsaken fans need to keep an eye on. I've only just started playing, and the price is certainly hard to beat at this point. Geocore has the nostalgia phasers set to kill for sure.. Boring as hell.... I just met a very dedicated and pretty cool game developer, psionik, and took a ride with him and 2 other Descent Rangers through his game Geocore, which is available on steam. The game is in alpha and about to go beta so for the small $10 fee I got it. After a quick but in-depth set-up I hopped into the Fury, complete with an arsenal of weapons that could rip a tank a new one and we toured the map. This overcharged pyro-style wonder has got the feel down. I mean it could fly like D1 with the right tri-chording feel, it has the after burners, weapons and feel of D2 & D3 too. To say the least, I was impressed. The other rangers were also impressed and I just wanted to give him a thumbs up and a recommendation and provide a video link of the match we just had. http:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/tsunami_k\/v\/33285714 If you have questions you can find him in the mumble chatroom mumble.descentrangers.com on port 31393.. Let me start by saying for the price this game is fun.. But game play and presentation shown in the video, are not present in this current version of the game.. Patrol you wonder around until a swarm or wave of the same type of robot come after you.. The multi play mode looks like a lot of fun if any one was in the loby ( I am not judging that) But the cool cockpit view and dark gritty ness of the entier game video demo is replace by Fog great controls ( feels like decent did) and a very genric cockpit view. Now for all the good bits. This game has great potential !! For a 1 man team I am very happy with my purcase You did a good job.. Trying to understand single player game ( not this games intent but a nice addition and temporay disctracton) Where this game looks like it shines is the multi player death match.. I am excited to get a few friend playing that portion.Improvement\/Changes:1. The demo videos need to be changed It does not reflect the current state of this game.2. In the death match mode Add a bot mode that learns (that is old tech think original unreal betting the library for that can be found for little cost if any) and uses your own tatics on you.. I loved if this would happen. 3. Continue to have fun I will be playing this game with friends and discussing it as it updates. I can tell you have put time into this title. And you have a love of the 6D shooters. Final Notes:This is not what i was expecting ( The art shift got to me) But it has potential to be a fantastic game for mulit player. I look forward to getting some friends together and playing some old school death match in a descent like envionment. Thank you for the fun.. Boring as hell.... So, obviously it's impossible to ignore that there are two major 6DOF shooters with bigger budgets also in development - the multiplayer oriented Descent: Underground and the singleplayer focused Overload, the latter made by lots of ex-Parallax people - i.e., the people who pioneered the genre.Geocore's focus is somewhere in-between the competitors mentioned above, designed by a long-time competitive Descent fan it nails the feel of the movement of one of these games. It's primary focus does seem to be multiplayer, and goes for a bit more of the pure old school Descent feeling, avoiding Descent: Underground's different ship classes and progression mechanics. Everybody starts with the same stuff - at the moment you even start with every single weapon on-board from the get go, though I wouldn't be surprised if that changes down the line. The multiplayer really hasn't caught on as of the time of this writing though, and you're unlikely to find any other players unless it's during a developer hosted event. The times I've managed to find matches, it's been running well, though currently the weapon feedback leaves a lot to be desired. Projectiles kinda just vanish when they hit something, leaving very little indication of if you're doing any damage or not.The game also has a singleplayer component called patrols, which is fairly basic though a decent diversion and a way to test out your settings, these missions mainly consist of narrow corridors punctuated with mini-boss arenas and color coded keys, not really offering any of the intricate and vast tunnel networks of the original Descent nor Overload.The environments in general are pretty drab looking, mostly just consisting of metallic surfaces with occasional machinery, colored lightning and the odd rock surface every now and then. The visual sameness sometimes makes it hard to make out enemy robots from the backgrounds. I think a little visual variety could go a long way in making this game stick out a bit more, though I wouldn't expect it to ever quite get the polished look of D:U nor Overload considering their respective budgets.There's a pretty good soundtrack in there too. Nothing particularly revolutionary, mostly going for the same kind of vaguely Front Line Assembly or Skinny Puppy sounding tunes that you'd find in the Descent series.All in all, with the two big competitors in mind it's hard to recommend this, especially in this early access state, to anybody but the biggest fans of 6DOF shooters, but there is a pretty good foundation in here, however in need of more refinement, especially on the visual side in terms of environment variety and shading. I'm still giving it a thumbs up, but I'd recommend you check in on it's development over time before making up your mind..
