Often an overlooked genre similar games have not been released since earlier Flatout titles( of which the devs are the same as this title), so this thing really stands out from the crowd.

Pro Unique title

Pro Has Steam Workshop support

Cons
Con Still in Early Access
Bugs can be found and not everything is finished. Game is in playable state though.
Con Camera can be unweildy
There is no cockpit camera view in the game, the only camera view is this odd over the shoulder camera that can make it tough to see what one is doing while driving. It does help when trying to hook up to and pull another truck out of the mud, but an additional camera view would be helpful for driving in particular.
