✦ AI summary
Players universally warn against this game due to its abandoned state, with the developer having disappeared years ago allegedly due to publisher mismanagement. While some acknowledge the game had unique ideas like survival mechanics in heavy vehicle simulators, the unfinished state, design quirks, and lack of support make it a poor purchase even at a discount.
Piles of potential but it never went anywhere once the publisher screwed over the developer of this. Look around long enough and you'll find the whole story, suffice to say the publisher is known for wrecking dev studios they partner with. Unfortunately this partnership seems to have killed the developer as they've been gone for several years at this point. Were this dropped to roughly $5 I'd say it's [i]maybe[/i] worth a look as there is a barely functional, fairly original (at the time) game in here held back by a few weird design choices. The licensed equipment is obviously fictional but it's fun racing around dodging lightning-wrapped twisters (no, really) in an excavator...for a while anyways. On launch the survival aspects of JCB Pioneer were way too hardcore, later patches toned them down. Sadly you may still find constantly crafting batteries for your suit power to be the straw that ends your time with this one as it has mine.10 found this helpful
