lath456 writes: The ground is completely flat (like a mat on the floor), yet they expect you to pay attention to the details in the road. My steering wheel wouldn't work with the car =( that was kinda disappointing. No brakes on the car either ... you gotta be tricky about throwing it into park to stop. Not impressed at all.

reskin writes: Graphics and sound are incredible for the scale of the game... they appear a little weak when you start out but give it time! There is a steep learning curve but always someone eager to answer questions. The number of skills is limited but more added every week. Economy is still stabilizing but there are opportunities to invest and win big. Best customer service I have experienced in an MMORPG. Flight vehicle movement is very smooth even on dial-up.

The sheer size and detail of the planet is simply awesome, no area is the same as the next.--- One aspect I like is the fact that the whole world and outer space is totally seemless, you dont have to load anything, go anywhere you like without having to stop and wait.--- One thing to understand is a game of this scale with high detail physics, needs to take a little hit on the graphics side. But the balance is quite good, this is not as obvious when you are on the ground in your car, but once in the air things look much better.--- This game was designed from space and orbit down to the planet level and is mainly focused on flight. The ground aspect was designed to get new starters used to the interface layout and earn some cash. It is quite difficult at this time to make the money unless you are willing to work hard, there are plans to make this easier and change the way you get hold of an aircraft.---- If your the sort of person that doesnt mind putting a bit of effort in to get somewhere, you will do ok here. dont expect instant action and instant *l337 uber omglookatme powers*---- The playerbase that is already esthablished is small, but we embrace new players and give all the help we can, we are all pretty much flight enthusiasts. But the main point is you must ask questions :) ---- Look past the graphics and sound and you will be rewarded, there is alot to see and do.---- So once you are in the air, space or a truck and have a little cash, there are a variety of things to do, in fact.. do what you want! build colonies to produce products, mines to dig ore, farms to provide food, which you can sell to other players or the city itself. You can make money by doing cargo runs between sellers and buyers. Taking passengers into space to one of the space stations, setup your own alliance and play the way you want, be aggressive or passive, whichever suits you the list goes on, its up to you to call the shots, you are not spoonfed in this game. Whichs is something I have not come across much.---- The main city on the planet *DEOIS* does not look after itself, there is no AI, it is up to the players to keep it supplied with food and the materials it needs. Your goal is to shape the way the city and the planet grows, which I myself find quite a nice responsibility to have.---- The economy is struggling at the moment around the city of Deois, but with more player this wont be a problem, because there will be plenty of people to make money out of it, this game just needs more players to take off, to its full potential.---- This review is a little all over the place I agree, but trying to put across the sheer scale of the game in a worthy manner is quite tricky, many features I have not covered. :) ---- Want more info about the game? got questions that need answering? please feel free to PM me and i'll get back to you as soon as I can.---- Cheers---- Stalintc---- PS the formatting on the review editor bit is a little pants really. Thanks for reading, hope to see some of you ingame. Sat Aug 26 2006 6:16PM

PeterRJG writes: Game obviously has some depth...the trick is to get there. Like another poster said, you'll spend more time randomly running your poorly controlled car into invisible walls and taking damage. Not a great way to introduce oneself to what could be a deep game. Needs major work. Sat Aug 26 2006 6:16PM

Techleo writes: The concept is worthy, the product lacking. Honestly it reminds me a little of EvE or even EnB but with ground combat. LOOONG way to go, but i give it a ok score for trying. Sat Aug 26 2006 6:16PM
