Pre-ordered the game, never again.
I hated this game hands down. It was so overly combersome and lacked any intuativeness which just made the game awful to play.
When a bird of prey can take down a constitution class ship because you cannot get the darn controls to respond, well then something is broken.
This game was a horrible waste of money, but it did start the ball rolling on a couple of better games so its not all bad.
