I (mis)spent a lot of time playing on the Atari back in the day and the game play seems very similar from what I remember! You can play solo against non player characters or in groups or in the open, I believe that the open version has a maximum of 32 players per instance. There are facilities for playing in groups etc but I haven't tried them so can't really comment. You can mine, trade, explore, be a pirate or a bounty hunter or do missions - so far (I've been playing since Beta) it's still keeping me entertained. The missions you are offered depend on your reputation with various in game factions and supposedly the outcomes affect how those factions perform over time. There is quite a steep learning curve to piloting your ship, but I suspect this is the same with all flight sims. I'm just using my keyboard - I like the idea of typing my way through the universe!
So the follow up question...since I use this PC for recording is...what is fanless, cheap and good enough?
Got the hang of combat was not targeting enemies. Took a while to learn how to dock as well. Just trying to super cruise without overshooting. Alas have to have two days off visiting relatives. Once I've the hang of it all I'll setup a fretboard group.
Keep me posted!
Now downloading. Where is everybody else located? And can I start with a Cobra?
