Cons
Con Not really free
It's free to play, but a much heard criticism on Steam is that because of recent changes you will have to pay quite a lot to be able to enjoy the game.
Con Cross platform play leads to unbalanced PvP
Mobile (Android, iOS) players are all playing together with desktop PC players, which means during dog fighting sequences the PC players have much finer grained controls over their mobile player opponents. This makes for unfair matching that can lead to mobile players loosing out more often than not if they are facing a PC player. This is also exacerbated by the fact that no one is able to know what platform an opponent may be playing on. So for those on PC their may be the chance of overly easy battles in the game, which may get tiring or lose its appeal.
Con Includes in app purchases
Simple Rockets, despite being upfront paid at $1.99 also includes in app purchases that are $0.99 per item.
