Nope, AFAIK. At first it was kinda ok, but now it's just irritating.
Anywho, watched a few videos and it looked good. Wasn't sure how it would feel to control, so gave the isodemo a try, and it impressed me enough to buy it.
Liking it so far, tho the difficulty made a huge jump once out of the junkyard area. Killing zombies with Lynx rigs was a breeze, now everyone is in Rhino armor, and they hit like trucks.

this is for those that dont know. since u cannot refight bosses til ng+? it helps to know this before u start.
first boss drops a better version of its weapon if u kill it without it getting hit by its own missles. |

This is the usual humps though. If it was a AAA game it would be flooding with opinions.
I'm not done with dark souls 3 or bloodbourne so i won't touch it yet.

Some of the things i've read though. Next to no wow moments like when you visit new beautiful areas in dark souls. Few bosses and a bit many loading screens. I'm cautiously optimistic.

I guess Dark Souls games are the masters of that with how they created the whole world. And every location feels so well done.

Reached second boss now, a bit trickier than the first, but I think I got most of the 1st phase down.
Once you guys reach the second level, I recommend using the hammer with the Lynx rig. It hits like a truck, and staggers pretty much everyone, but the light armor offsets the speed penalty a little bit (the maintenance bots are still a pain in the ass tho, but even they go down faster, I just couldn't be assed to figure out how to send them into self-repair mode for the rear-shots). The enemies hit so hard that there's little point in going for heavier armor, but if you use the jump attack to start the combat, very few mobs can break the stunlock the hammer can inflict (mostly just the security guys, and they don't respawn). 
Also, I only had a crash on the isodemo, and only one at that (2-3 hours maybe). 7 hours into the legit version, and no crashes (fingers crossed).
Anyhow, I got stuck on the second level for a while, I was going in circles for a couple hours before finally stumbling onto the correct path. I spent about 2 hours going through the same shortcut over and over again, and when I finally found the way, I unlocked 3 new ones in under an hour. 
EDIT: also, be careful when going against the security guys on the second level. There's only 4 of them (at least I didn't see more (2 right after you find OPS, hidden behind some barricades on top of some stairs, and 2 right after you meet the female survivor, on the rail station platform)), and they don't respawn. Be sure to get a piece of armor off them that you don't have yet. I made the mistake of not getting the body rig, and I'm pretty convinced that having the full set is the unlock condition for those doors that scan you and says 'security personnel only'. I'm sure there will be more of them later on, but it looks like a nice piece of protection.

Tried it for a bit. Seems somewhat amateurish to me. Feels a bit like Mars War Logs - only prettier.
I guess it's worth it if you're into the genre.
The environment is dull, though.

No idea why, but it runs really bad for me.
I have some huge drops like 20-30 fps for a few seconds, before it goes back to 60 fps. Its really annoying and its happening no matter what settings.

Why are you not playing in window mode?
The ingame window mode is actually borderless window mode.

@Bob Barnsen
I don't like playing games in borderless.And I always get less fps in borderless than in fullscreen.
The game runs good though anyway.
I've uninstalled it though. I'm not in the mood now to play a melee peasant with a steel dildo.

Finally found the time to play it (I'm ~6 hours in), so far the game is definitely solid. Doesn't have the variety, lore or amount of bosses that the Souls franchise has, but it's a competent Scrap Souls in its own essential ghetto way, more enjoyable than Lords of the Fallen in my opinion. It's tough but not unfair, the combat system works well and the post-chappie industrial level design has enough complexity to be entertaining despite being mostly corridor-based (thanks to the multilayered structure - with shortcuts that are always satisfying to unlock ). The biggest difference is that the the environments aren't fully interconnected but the game plays more like a level-based Souls with a large explorable area, one resting point and one final boss.
The visuals are pleasant too, especially the lighting, nothing too fancy of course but the game has its atmospheric moments (with the second level giving some Dead Space-y vibes). Same for the performance (60fps on High/1080p here, enough for my low standards) and last but absolutely not least, damn perfect mouse controls *praises the scrap*. That's where this game beats the Souls hands down, m&kb is so responsive and precise that the game almost feels designed for it, a nice feeling for once.

So true, I haven't noticed any queued actions or problems whatsoever.
