I don't know how much it's changed sinse I last played, but the basic idea
is that you have a spaceship and fly around.
Your pretty much liited to just trading, haulage or elliegal missions at the
start, but there is combat, mining and farm owning later.
One really clever thing about the game though is it's physics and travel
system. There were comparatively few planets and such to go to, and all of
them had real orbits in X Y and Z access. your travel time was calculated in
real time and so you literally had to start your ship off and then wait for
it to arrive hours later.
Fortunately the travel tools were very useful, as were the various trade
indexes.
it was a nice idea for a game, but extremely slow, especially as it took
literally weeks to get into a ship that could handle combat or get to own a
farm or factory, and I'm not sure how much by way of new things to do those
added to the game.
I will say the community was pretty good, indeed there was a lot of friendly
player interaction and though some players did get to be pirates it took
such a long time mostly they only attacked people with similarly massive
ships, or took out npcs, so no newbie bashing.
then again it's literally about ten years sinse I played the game so it
wouldn't surprise me if more has been added sinse, actually I hope it has.
Beware the grue!
