User Reviews

Overall, AQ: First Contact is praised for deep ship customization and progression, engaging PvP combat with hands-on control, and a not-into-pay-to-win model backed by active development and a corporation system. However, reviewers repeatedly cite slow early progression and grind, weak starter ships, and balance issues that gate advancement. Community concerns include toxic player behavior and weak support, plus account-recovery problems. Monetization remains a point of contention, with some praising the non-pay-to-win approach and others calling it a cash grab. Endgame balance can feel skewed toward certain ship types.

Pros

Highly customizable ships with deep progression and crafting.
Hands-on PvP battles with direct control over ships.
Not pay-to-win; monetization is optional and players can compete without spending.
Active development with a roadmap and regular updates.
Core systems like corporation dynamics and mining/resource management add depth.

Cons

Slow early progression and grind that can gate advancement.
Weak starter ships and early balance issues hampering progress.
Toxic community and weak support including account-recovery problems.
Monetization concerns: perception of cash grabs despite some not-pay-to-win messaging.
Endgame balance favors certain ship types, leading to unbalanced battles.

Every 5 mins, whether there is a new deal or not, the in-game $$ shop will have a notification marker. Sometimes there isn’t even a deal, and it will still keep notifying you, and the little symbol will just stay there. As someone who likes to keep their notifications clear, this is soooooo annoying. Yes, I have probably spent like $8 in my month of playing. No, I won’t spend anymore until this is fixed.

When you start the game the ships you are given are so bad u can’t even fight lowest level enemy’s they will give u some materials to build weapons but its no where near enough u can’t even grind because of the level difference to have fun with this game u have to spend money to progress
