Hi,
The game is really good...and it's quite early to say that. So, bravo.
My only criticism is that the "worker" robots are way to quick to pick up loot once you defeat enemy robots. Now, I'm a new player, so this may an option to turn off or on, or it may just be something I'm missing. Regardless, I'm not sold on those robots picking up potential upgrades that can help me progress.
Cheers,
The Scavengers/Recyclers are tough to deal with initially. That said, you only need to target them once with one weapon to scare them away for a little while, plus they will drop everything they pick up if you manage to kill them.
