I agree on one point with you:

as a PAYING customer I should not be playing a BETA game. I was in close Beta and pointed some of the problems out. DEVs told me its a 24/7 PVP game. Now you see what I mean, in someway I am happy now that the game is broken since that proves I were right back then. Hence it will not fix the game, which in my humbled opinion is dead already. The fact is there are way too many things broken in order to fix them in Patch 1.4. No Content as for the endgame, since PVP is not what I am looking for in a MMO or atleast not PVP all the time. This game is that a SIM with a small amount of MMO and a huge amount of FPS in ships. Sorry this nightflip thing and all that is not the issue its the game design and I can happily tell you ... I am done. So at least you don't have to face me and blaim me for your nightflips. Hence they will still happen.

Thumbs down Hallo ???????

But, by all means, blame me. Or Canada. Your choice.

Hallo ????

Do you realize that Britain has BOTH the ability to fight at european AND north american times because they have ENOUGH PLAYERS on BOTH sides of the ocean ?

Your suggestion is rather useless because at european time the european british would fight while at US time the US british would fight.

So, THIS is the game breaking issue.

The fact that a Nation can attack (or defend) all other nations whenever it pleases but the other Nations CANNOT.

Is it more clear now ?

And please, do NOT come say get players from north america because it HAS BEEN tried for over 2 months now without results.

But on top of anything else, it is way too much to ask to PAYING customers that they went out of their way humiliating themselves to beg other individuals to "please come play with their nation and on their server" because otherwise they cannot play the game.

This responsibility resulting from a grave and serious population inbalance should NEVER EVER lay on the sholders of paying customers but on that of the owners of the game.

It is the designers who should fix the damn breaking issue of night flips for good and not the players having to beg anyone to please do them the favour to join their nation and their server. I don't know others but I PAY to play a game not to be a beggar.

At least, that's how I see it.

FPS? How is this game even remotely like a FPS? There are no twitch mechanics, the combat is very slow paced, and you play it almost entirely in the third person. Its an RPG/RTS hybrid if anything.

And that you thought the game wasn't ready for release way back in closed beta but still went out and paid money for it kinda deflates your point.

Toodles anyways.

Patch up and get on there so we can see how things stand atm.

Stop moaning at changes and get working on fixing them or contribute to balance
to much effort.
If FLS can't get the handling easier and faster, I am not willing to spend my time on it.

I've a job and I am not struggling for my paying customers, FLS is.

I disagree. I see myself as the best part of the game...well, maybe if I got to play more. I'm only mildly important right now, which I'm definitely not happy about. The sooner you all realize that I am a moderate demi-god, the better off you all will be.

You may kiss my ring.

Strikes me that people see what they want to see (which is usually negative) and then complain about what it is they saw (or thought they saw) and whats causing it (or more likely, what they would like to think is causing it because it fits with their motives / preformed opinion).

The only people that ACTUALLY have the facts as to how many are joining, leaving, playing, what they're doing, why they're leaving, etc etc etc.... are FLS. They have data. Everyone else just has opinions.

Yes, but some opinions are worth more than others. Mine, for instance!

Indeed and that is sad. It took them 5 years to get a game on the market which is unplayable .... I could have done the same in 2 minutes. Doesn't take much
