Yup, I do. There was another post about this earlier. :)

I'm Thomas Markand on the game by the way. Originally going to be just "Markand" but everyone would call me "Mark" and it would piss me off. So now I put my real name in front. 8)


Yeah the graphics are awesome. I thought Freelancer had good graphics but DAMN boy! :shock: :D

I have a stedfast rule about MMORPGs and how the economics behind them don't make them worth it.

I proudly break my rule for EVE. I play as an Intaki called Greyze.

I played the beta and after the initial shock of character creation and the awesome graphics (the newbie rail-turret turning and firing still sticks out in my mind), I didn't find it all that fun. But then again, I didn't play it all that long and it was more than a little buggy. What's it like now?

I had the same basic experience, but after a while of mindless runs back and forth to the asteriod fields I got fed up, bought myself a fancy looking Merlin, loaded it up with nice looking guns and shields and promptly got my ass handed to me by a couple NPC pirates, fortunately I escaped. But I just didn't like the combat, even when I worked in groups. Also, I didn't have direct control of my ship, I didn't like that very much, guess I played too much Xwing vs Tie Fighter.
