Things in subspace, as in life often change from time to time. In order to be truly great you need to roll with the punches. Lots of people have complained about the new item set and not many said anything positive, but once people start to build good ships and get used to it it will be just as much fun as it was a month or two ago. (given that some minor adjustments are made to the basing games, i.e. more power to the attacking team)
