[Orange_Kun!!!]

It feels like a cross between Freelancer and Earth and Beyond to me.

Picked up a key for a buddy of mine since he's a lil slow when it comes to "acquiring" access to games that are in stages where they're not easily accessible (i.e. Closed Beta phase).

Pretty impressed w/ the game so far considering it's F2P. The game, at it's core, feels pretty polished for the most part despite the occasional bug here and there.

I didn't get one from this, but I just got accepted today.

eh... I haven't even finished the prologue yet and I am pretty disappointed with this game. The controls are pretty weird (I dont like piloting AND use my weapons with the mouse, I would prefer mouse for weapons/aiming and keys to move up/down/left/right). The game itself seems pretty laggy, or at least I noticed a lot of rubberbanding, which makes shooting a target nearly impossible for me with the control scheme. Also, about 95% of the things I am attacking get stolen from me by other players, which makes missions that require you to kill rats take that much longer

How does the game control? Like pitch/roll with the mouse, or pitch/yaw(turning lift/right)?
Yeah, I've been putting off downloading this...

aiming and moving (turning the ship as well as pitch) are both done with the mouse while strafing and moving forwards/backwards are done with the traditional wasd format.

 

[Orange_Kun!!!]

You can also plug in a joystick if you have one or use a controller.

Mouse and Keyboard work pretty well for me though.

Aside from beta bugs, the only thing that I'm really annoyed about is getting one-shot from people much higher level than I in the open world pvp scene. That's a small qualm though.

So it's pitch/yaw...that's a little disappointing.

Don't forget the "it's so bad it's funny" voice acting lol. FRAK!
