Time Played

Chart displaying BallisticNG percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the time players have spent in BallisticNG, comparing positive and negative reviews. The reviews during the game's time in Early Access are visible too. The time in game is excellent, with 35 hours in the 80th percentile.

The negative reviews play time is 24 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. A low negative review time (median : 25 minutes) can mean that the game crashes on some systems or that the type of gameplay was not completely clear to the players (Is the game unmistakably explained on the Steam Store ?). It is also possible that players were otherwise displeased by BallisticNG and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. You could check if there is an explanation in the Players' feedback section.
