    Sorry, I didn't get the acronym at first.


    Found my target and destroyed him, but not before he took out my cockpit. Running on oxygen I found the nearest spaceport, only to get interdicted, escaped and about 30 seconds from being able to dock, BAM!


    ARGH!$#*&$

    How big is the learning curve for this game? Or is it pretty simple to pick up and play?

    I reckon if you get more into it and play it like a sim, it is very difficult. But you can pick up and play as I have. Though it is doable with kb/mouse I would recommend at least a 360 controller.

    Quite quick and easy to learn but long and hard to master. I'm loving it, and must be going on 30hours now.

    If you have any experience in Wing Commander/Privateer, Free Space or Star Lancer then it should be easy to pick up and play.

    Bwahahaha, good times Those are the memorable moments, enjoy them even if they suck at the time.
    When an anti-piracy method is affecting the game for people who legitimately bought it and causing other people not to buy the game, there is obviously something wrong with it!

    Yeah I tried it with a mouse/keyb combo first, then I tried my 360 controller. The controller was way easier to fly with.

    I'm sure with practice you'd come right with the keyb/mouse though

    I'm sure you could. But there's just not enough keys on the controller so I was using a combination of controller and keyboard, just the controller is two handed.
    I eventually went joystick with a combination of my G13 gameboard and not using keyboard at all now. Makes so much difference. I can only dream what a HOTAS is like, I still can't fly unassisted.

    Yeah, I know the controller is 2h, but I can anything important or critical with only the controller, since you can get a lot of combos in with the 4 action buttons combined with the Dpad, which results in 16 combinations.

    I'm sure it will be easier with a joystick or HOTAS, but I'm not gonna spend money on either (atleast not now) :3

    Great, I had a game crash last night while I was fighting in an asteroid belt, now today every time I load up it loads me where I left off. And... game crashes! Something in the asteroid belts my PC doesn't like.


    Edit: Game is constantly crashing on me now.
