Pros
Pro Spiritual successor to Supreme Commander
Created to be a spiritual successor to Supreme Commander, those that are familiar with the title will be pleased to see a continuation of the franchise in some way.
Pro Battles take place on multiple planets
Players fight it out in large battles that take place on multiple planets, making for a very large scale RTS.
Pro Picture-in-picture mode allows for better monitoring
A picture-in-picture mode permits players to keep tabs on any area or planet that they are currently not viewing in the main screen. While it may cause complications in trying to keep track, it does open up an easy way to quickly viewing what is going on elsewhere in the game.
Pro Polished art design
The graphics, music and voice acting are all top notch. Considering the amount of money this game made through its Kickstarter, it is no surprise the extent of the polish of the game.
Cons
Con Overly complex - 3d chess
Too many layers, tries to be too much. Just needed to re-build FAF in a new engine.
Con Requires high specs
Users need to have good PCs to run this game. Those who do not have high-end graphics' cards, a lot of RAM, and good CPUs will experience problems during play, such as low frame rates.
Con Poor story in second act
The second act of the game has an increasingly incoherent story that explains very little of what is going on. Considering the first act ends with a cliffhanger and many questions to be asked, to see the second half explain almost none of it makes for a frustrating story.
