5. The random dying part is true, many players have noticed it. However, they either had unarguably god-like lag, and so were appearing and disappearing, and never even knew when someone shot and killed them. - In one case I killed a kid, and he didn't realize it, and was all like "wtf how did I end up here?". - Or, people need to buy glasses, because they can't see the shrap.

 

2. The ship is more responsive than SVS, just the bounce factor on walls sucks. The only other thing is that it's got friction, but supposedly the Wraith doesn't have any.

 

1. And too ez kills in GM? Maybe, especially if you're a SS player, but the settings are balanced, and the rich don't get more powerful, just get specialized weapons.

Yeah the shrap is near impossible to see.

I'm trying this game out just because it seems like it will be easy for those who play SS, and I'm looking for an e-penis boost.

 

Edit: Well, this game is really fun so far. 7 minutes and not even one percent of the patch has downloaded, and the alternate patcher doesn't work.

Can't there be different arenas with different settings in GM?

And yes Samapico, there are different zones with different objectives and gameplays. As for your ship, the more you play, the more experience you gain, and the more ships/items/weapons you can unlock. They don't necessarily give you an advantage, they're just more specialized.

So far it's been pretty fun. Very low population when I've played, but that's expected in a beta of a game of this sort. I noticed sometimes I lag horribly in the game, while other times I have very little lag. The ony thing I reallllllllllly hate is how when you press F2 to equip your ship it takes effing FOREVER.
