O..m..f..g...NERDGASM!
Picked it up on the weekend for £26 as it was 33%off and my goodness... i still play freelencer on my work laptop and this is the same just... 15 years newer! I never played the old ones so sorry for that, hehe.
Its so massively vast i almost cant comprehend, there is literally 400billion star systems and each one has multiple planets and stuff, i really want to go and name a system which i believe you CAN do.

Nearly got it as well on steam but thought I'd wait until Christmas when it's 50% off  |

Its more than worth the full rrp! Im angry at myself for not buying it sooner, though i hear it just had a huge update before i bought it so im lucky. Their still expanding as the unexplored star systems are empty, they fill them when theyve been explored as you can have a career as an explorer. Kinda like "oh, this place has been doscovered and claimed by the empire, lets build a base next to that planet.
There is more updates coming with planetary exploration on cars and foot (also 1:1 scale like the galaxy) aswell as boarding battles, spacestation fps type fights and multi crewed capital ships.

So is it single player or mmo? Sounds like the later.

Haha, its a ballache with mouse and keyboard, i find the xbox360 controller is perfect for it... needs some control tweeks but you can do button combos like a and left is switch weapon loadout, x and down is landing gear etc etc.
The turning is meant to be slow as hell... and tutorial vids are VITAL!
It is an mmo but you can play it offline or in a private universe, the vastness is just too much to comprehend!

I'll pass then for now, prefer single player some like the old x games, latest was not so good in all but had some good ideas.

You can play it single player, its just the same profile as the one you can also play multiplayer... thats the only downside, you cant have multiple characters, i want one bountyhunter and one pirate but il need to make a whole new account  |
