Change a couple words and it describes counter-strike almost perfectly. :lol:

yeah i played this game

while i think the world is made nicely, it doesn't really capture the essence of space combat. no radar???? what the fudge? and ships all the same speed? what happened to be able to buy new engines and stuff. combat seems to be like aim and click the mouse button. i may play it through just to see the story line, but gimme privateer anyday...

It's basically a new version of the old space trading game Elite which originally came on a one floppy disk!

Takes some patience and can get monotonious - like every fucker he meets in the bar says the same things and he never gets to shag any of the new london police chicks.

But I do like my new ship and the rapid fire guns :D

hey disturbed, then maybe you can enlighten me - i played online once but it took so goddamn long to shoot something down that I got "board" (quote knight) with trying to follow the ship on the screen - also my wrist hurt muchly.

Is it normal for the ships to move faster? or am i doing something wrong?

/me thinks hes trying to get his post count up :roll:

I have noticed that you do get a bit of lag online which makes it hard to shoot ships down. Also depending on what weapons you have does contribute. Ie the ones you start with are useless. Thirdly, are you trying to shoot down players who's rank is 38??? cause that would also make life hard.
But my bet is its probably the lag, as i have nomad weapons on my ship and ussually i can shoot ships down in 4 or 5 shots. when i get lag it sometimes takes me 5 minutes to hit the damn thing. As for ships moving faster, if it is lagin it looks like they can turn on a dime and shoot off in a flash, if thats your problem then its definitly lag.

ok i just treid it again - ive got DSL now and its defeinetly better. They still turn like shit off a shovel but at least it dont take long to shoot em down.

btw, flying into the sun is not recommended :roll:
