A bunch of us played MP religiously when it first came out, and it of course found its way to the back of the hard drive once something new and exciting came out. Well, after a FPS overload, we once again have fired a server up if you guys are still interested in playing this gem.<br>You canAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7961660238450693245.post-17336277355417884872003-02-26T21:13:00.005+00:002003-02-26T21:13:00.005+00:00Aye the missions in between the plot missions are ...Aye the missions in between the plot missions are a bit samey. I've been using those parts to explore the place and find spots for raising different factions, as the faction groups seem to hang out in particular bases. I've not really tried mining yet, trade is quite easy, with the game telling you where the best port to sell up is. There's probably better trade routes that are hidden from you Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7961660238450693245.post-13786961964615173492003-02-26T21:13:00.004+00:002003-02-26T21:13:00.004+00:00Yeah, its not the most intuitve of designs.

Went through some tuff missions and battles. I like the story, its quite involving and I'm always eager to want to do the next bit. In a way it makes it frustrating that you have to level between them before you can attempt them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7961660238450693245.post-54268802921878957982003-02-26T21:13:00.003+00:002003-02-26T21:13:00.003+00:00I use one of the shield zappers and 2 regular lase...I use one of the shield zappers and 2 regular lasers. They're grouped so I don't fire the shield zapper when their sheilds are gone.

I'm afraid my private jury is out on this game so far, they're still deliberating over the simplistic weapons system and how long the combat will remain fun. I almost had to disquality one of them for constantly pointing out how the graphics aren't up to EnB and bloody well ought to be since it's been in development for centures.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7961660238450693245.post-2736283715951774712003-02-26T21:13:00.000+00:002003-02-26T21:13:00.000+00:00I'm really enjoying it so far.

Apparently the game can support upto 128 connections at one time but the recommended max is around 30->64. The server keeps all the info about the players.<br>The only downside to this is that if a server you are playing on dies/gets Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
