The Cycle Frontier Free Download GAMESPACK.NET A sub-genre has been brewing away amid the tide of battle royales and hero shooters. The obtuse shorthand is PvPvE, which essentially means multiple players having to occupy and fight through a shared space full of baddies in the pursuit of competing goals. There aren’t a ton of these kinds of games but they capture something of the potential for memorable stories that you’d get out of a DayZ, with the tighter structure of a competitive match. At their best they are an endless story generator, capitalising on the scope of possible interactions while applying pressure to have players make increasingly dangerous decisions. The Cycle: Frontier enters into this fray as a free-to-play title, arguably making it more accessible than many of its peers. You’re a prospector, a gun for hire in a sci-fi setting with a Western twang, dropped from an orbital station in little pods onto a ravaged world to scavenge resources and supplies left behind by the settlers who abandoned the dangerous world due to its terrible storms. As set-ups go it’s ho-hum as it gets, feeling like a derivative of so many sci-fi games it’s barely worth pointing to any other than Outriders—a recent game already maligned for its lack of originality.TOP/BEST ADULT VIDEO GAMES IN UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (USA)

The Cycle isn’t charmless or crass but its still that uninspired trope of treating space like a literal old west frontier with little in the way of introspection to elevate it, a letdown for a studio who once got the most of out of a tired set-up with Spec Ops: The Line. Its specific aesthetics are as worn out as the premise, with your usual combination of bland jumpsuits, Aliens-esque space armour and military rifles, with the occasional cowboy hat and southern accent to lazily set the tone. That doesn’t stop its alien planet from being lush though, with vibrant colours making all its green fields and glowing mushrooms pop on-screen. None of the landscape is especially memorable but it’s pleasing to the eye while you’re running around at least. Getting off the planet with your prized loot requires calling for a dropship to come pick you up at a specific rendezvous which is visible to everyone, making it the tensest moment in a match. Nothing is stopping strangers extracting together but the player base is, unsurprisingly, pretty trigger happy. This however is made more difficult by the game’s showpiece: storms. If one of these violent suckers rolls in it’s time to take shelter and hold out as you can’t evacuate until it’s over.

The Cycle: Frontier – Fortuna Survivor.

Neat an idea as it is, in execution, it’s kind of mostly a dreary affair of waiting around in a cave until it’s safe. I couldn’t help but feel it could’ve been utilised better by forcing players to flee, rushing off world instead of simply waiting for it all to blow over. For the most part though storms are infrequent and you will be running around a lot, constantly scanning and checking for minerals to find while evading or engaging other players and alien monsters. Those alien monsters are another letdown, seldom anything but snarling knock-offs you’ve seen in so many RPGs over the years.Beyond Contact

The crab ones, the dog ones you get the idea. Functionally the only real difference between most of them is the amount of health they have which leaves them pretty lacklustre to fight, in spite of the satisfying punch the game’s weapons have, so I spent most of time avoiding them. In fact, I spent most of my time avoiding anything, whether it be monsters or players, since there was seldom anything to gain from a fight unless I needed to harvest their organs for a quest. Speaking of quests, when you’re not on the planet itself you’ll be on the station which acts like a hub for all your activities. You’ll go get jobs from factions, browse shops and sort out upgrades. It’s a cool idea to have a social space not dissimilar from Destiny’s tower or dozens of MMO hubs, but there’s very little to do there that isn’t simply running between kiosks to click ‘accept’ or ‘claim’ on quests and their rewards. Something that could easily have been a menu. It’s 2022 and I’m still playing games with the most tired, thoughtless fetch quest missions imaginable. Yet The Cycle clearly wishes to showcase its polish at all times. Whether it’s the Halo ODST-like pod drops or the crunchy sound of its guns, there’s a high level of production value throughout which gives its tired elements a bit of a shine.

Elaborate gear customization system.

The most obvious comparison for some will be Escape from Tarkov, but for me, Hunt Showdown has been my go-to PvPvE game, and playing something like The Cycle illuminates all too clearly why. The thing that Hunt does so well and I find so compelling is it’s never about the rewards. Sure, there are unlocks and items worth coveting but the cheapest tools are just as good at seeing you through as the most expensive. No, what Hunt cares about is the moment to moment tension, the butterfly effect of each tiny choice made at the start of the match to its end. With its sole reward, its bounties, pushing players into confrontation and allowing canny players to devise ambushes or traps. Point is, your first match in that game can be every bit as exciting and rewarding as your last. By contrast, The Cycle, with its emphasis on dozens and dozens of resource types to be gathered and funnelled towards an endless array of crafting, is fixated on the destination. Weapons, armour, ammo, attachments, backpacks… the list goes on. Even outside of the arsenal itself, there are upgrades for them all as well as upgrades for your apartment and its currency generators. The Cycle seems fixated on getting players onto its treadmill, more than it is making the most of its set up. With so many resources to gather and little inventory space at the games outset.

I often found myself ready to evacuate within minutes of landing. Resources are abundant too so I often simply avoided other players since there was plenty enough on the map for everyone to get what they need. Arguably, you’d want to ambush other players for their gear but new players will have little worth taking. Higher level players will have better gear but, as a result, have an advantage, so you won’t really be able to take them on until you have something comparable. At which point, well, there’s nothing to be gained. It’s a poorly thought out economy that seems hell bent on creating a tired free-to-play progression path first and foremost, an interesting game second. This emphasis on resources and incremental upgrades buries the interesting things about the game. An abundance of resources could foster a different kind of player environment, with frequent co-operation instead of just constant murder but there’s little to no incentive to help others. Player battles themselves are pretty dull, with too few options and victory largely coming down to who has the better stuff. On some rare occasions though I was able to tag along with a stranger and we’d help each other fight beasties or gather minerals before extracting together. In those moments the game took on a whole new life  as I tried to forge an on the fly alliance.

Will this random person watch your back? Can they trust you? A trial by fire that hinted at how much more interesting The Cycle could be if it emphasised social interactions over its artificial grind. It’s more interesting than playing with friends too. Having some pals makes the drudgery more tolerable but puts you in an even more competitive space with no team ever willing to do anything other than murder, regardless of how meagre the rewards. How about engaging in firefights with other players who, if not at a hard numerical advantage after having spaffed their dollarydoos on top-tier gear, at least have a leg-up? The Cycle: Frontier is far from the worst offender to even come out this month, of course, and there’s clear passion and talent buried underneath all this nonsense. But hey, why go easy on the pigeon who stole your chips just because another pigeon stole your iPhone? It’s all greed at the end of the day. The Cycle takes place on the planet of Fortuna III, which sounds, fittingly, like a casino, but is actually a lush, tempestuous world of swamps, jungles, and caverns, inhabited by chitinous bugliens. You and up to two great mates play as prospectors, aiming to drop to the surface, scrounge up valuables and samples of local flora and fauna.

Then catch a dropship home before getting bodied by either the local wildlife or other players. If you die, you lose any gear and loot you had, but you can spend currency before dropping in to ‘insure’ your shiny equipment, guaranteeing either a replacement or a payout. Back on the station, you progress your reputation with three different factions, giving you access to more missions and better gear. There’s also a massive crafting system utilising dozens of different resources, complete with a dopamine-prodding rainbow of rarity colour-coding, because of course there is. The biggest question you need to ask yourself before investing in The Cycle’s 30GB download is this: Do you have at least one dedicated friend, who either likes this sort of thing or owes you a massive favour, to play with? If not, prepare to spend a lot of time running into roving pairs of loot-hungry bastards, getting killed in seconds, losing your gear, and repeating the process, or else sneaking through the undergrowth in the vain hope you might grab a couple of useful bits and evac, just to make the tiniest sliver of progress towards your next objective. You might be an FPS god, of course, in which case I’m truly happy for you, as long as you never mention it.

Multiplayer mode: The game's multiplayer mode allows players to compete against each other online. Players can form alliances, strategize, and challenge each other in races, time trials, and other events.

If not, prepare for a sneaky, frustrating game of stamina management, exacerbated by a painfully slow default walking speed, no doubt tuned to entice you toward stamina-boosting trousers. Two-on-one fights aren’t impossible, just naturally stacked against you. Fine when PvP is the whole game, less so when you’re trying to find your footing by finishing a slew of multi-tiered quests without going through the rigamarole of death, followed by shopping for more gear, dropping in at a random location, and hoofing it back across the planet to where you were previously. You’re a Prospector living aboard Prospect Station orbiting the dangerous alien planet known as Fortuna III. The powerful factions running the Station often send you on missions in search of resources and precious loot. Choose the gear and weapons best suited to your goals, pick your destination and within mere seconds you’re dropping down onto the surface, ready for adventure. Be prepared for Prospectors like you out there, with their own goals and agenda. Which jobs to tackle and where to explore is entirely up to you but keep your guard up: Fortuna III is a dangerous place! Your goal is to survive and escape to the station with whatever loot you’ve managed to acquire, picked up from the ground or taken by force.
