OMG I have no issues!

as a vet of several drop days I have to say this is one of the smoothest launches I've seen.
and no, I'm not being sarcastic.

one thing that may not have made it out of beta however, it appears that mobs can shoot through objects.

on the first rescue mission where you fight the orians, one got behind an asteriod and got stuck, but he was still able to target and attack me while I had to circle the roid to get los and lock weaps.

at this level its an annoyance, but if its a hard mob that pathing/collision issue will get ugly real fast

    Yes, I'd imagine most non STEAM users " are" enjoying the game right now.

    I bugged this in beta myself. If an AI ship accidentally gets stuck on an asteroid it can take pot shots at you at its leisure, while you have to maneuver around. It's pretty annoying, for sure.

    Yes we are. just kidding, I feel for you steam sucks for MMOs. good for single player games, but never MMOs.

    I, too, would like to complain that I have no issues.

    Wait, I do have one. I still can't see my name or healthbar over my character/ship.

    Phew, there, I feel better now!.

    I bugged it as well ... annoying that you can't shoot but they can. It'll get fixed in the next couple weeks I hope.

    yeah, I use steam regularly being an avid TF2 fan, but I had a bad feeling about letting them play middleman between my client and the server simply because they were the retailer.

    I went with the atari download

    I'll jump on the "having no issues" bandwagon... But that's unfortunately because I have work... Having no problems logging in. Haven't been dropped. Not even working on a big download in order to play.

    <sigh>

    Some people don't know when to complain and when to appreciate what they have.
