Should You Play Outriders: New Horizon? (Big Content Update)



Outriders recently released a new update called New Horizon, introducing 4 new Expedition missions, a transmog system, and more! And best of all โ€ฆ itโ€™s completely FREE. As a full-blown DLC approaches in 2022, is New Horizon worth playing for existing and new Outriders players?

  1. To anybody interested to this game and have yet to play it: it free on PC Gamepass.
    Personally, I share the same feelings of Timbo on 9:32. However, I would not suggest to buy it, especially at full price.

    Update: I played a bit more of the game, after the new orizon patch and still would not suggest to buy the game.
    It's still buggy, right from launching the game itself.
    It still have that annoying habit to pull you toward the nearest cover when you are trying to dogde some mobs.
    It still don't have a way to lock some interesting items in your inventory, or doesnโ€™t have its own Cross-Platform Crossplay Voice Chat.
    Endgame mission are insanely boring, using the same 5-6 mobs in every mission.
    There is no timer on mission (YES!), but there is nothing to find or loot around (NO!). And the missions themself are over-complicated, prolonged by throwing at you other 2-3 waves of the same monsters you killed.
    To me, it's a BIG disappointed. I will never play it again.

    If, like Timbo, you are looking for something less grindy, more friendly and a bit more cooperative, check Deep Rocks Galactic.
    The game have a waaaay lower budget than this one, but it is full of fun.
    And remember to always Rock and Stone (V key), or you are not going home ๐Ÿ˜‰

  2. The point on the game's combat feeling a bit brainless seems a bit unfair. It always seems like people want to always play the same kind of game even if they're playing multiple different games. Like they just want a riskin of the same experience over and over and over and over again.. And I think it's unfair to developers and the game itself to always expect the same experience or a similar experience when the developers and the company is trying to deliver a very unique experience to their brand. Whether that's good or bad, I don't know but it just seems like a very stale way to think.

  3. If the transmog and lack of time limits were there from the beginning, it would have kept me playing for way longer. Now that I haven't played for a while, this isn't enough to bring me back.

  4. Ho ho ho finished at release? You mean a buggy, RUSHED release with awful servers which leads to a garbage coop-experience for most players even in the SAME household.

    As for me? yes a fun but BUGGY game with the WORST coop-experince ever.

  5. Did they ever fix how glitchy/buggy the game was? I got it when it first came out, and enjoyed the story, but stopped playing once I got to end game because of the bugs.

  6. I've been playing this game for a week. Picked it up on Gamepass. Pretty fun, so much potential, too many steps to travel, load screens, and little explanation for anything. But my question is, "Is this game dead? Revived? Or what?" I'm nearing endgame, and want to party up, but what's the point if no one is playing. Either I find videos 8 months old, or very recent. Nothing in between.

  7. Difference between destiny and outriders, is destiny has players and finds matches.
    Especially in Australia.
    Games lost 85% of its player base because this great update took way too long.
    Great game, with nothingโ€ฆ
