Highly Underrated, a Must Have Sim if you Like Deep Games, get the GOLD version, its got all the updates Awesome!!
needs the gamer to think!, and Learn! but for me the deeper the game, and more-complex, the more rewarding, and fun! it is!
IMHO. But the nice-part about this sim, is you can play and Learn at the same-time, so the you get rewarded for the Learning-curve.
If you Liked games such-as "Frrespace 2", and Sins[SOASE]
and the star-trek series, then dont miss this!, you wont be sorry!!
I got the gold addition for 20$ at wallmart, a steal!
Did I mention the Graphics are Amazing!, and the ships are all
very-detailed, and the explosions are very-well-done! I also like how the Plot and missions are "open-ended", so you can play any-mission at any-time. you can also play differant ways, you can play as a straight friendly "capitalist", and earn stockpiles of cash!
thru trade, and Indutry, or go-ballistic, and be a Pirate, and Lot, and Maine, to your hearts content,, you decide how to play!!
You'll be sorry if you pass X3 Terran Conflict/GOLD up!!
Hve fun and be safe!
