Good game but has some seriously annoying bugs and problems that could make it so much better. Windows telling you to buy stuff or about the pirates destroying an outpost popping up mid-fight is incredibly irritating, especially when they then won't close or don't close properly (I've had the text just stay on the screen and everything around it is still inclickable). It's killed me a number of times. The two factions are unevenly balanced so my side just wins everytime which is also a bit dull. I find in battle the buttons often glitch out to switch between mining and fighting and to turn on the gun and the only way I can get it to work is to stop moving and click frantically, which kills me a lot of the time as I can't even run away. The server just reset which is fine, but with no warning, and it dumped me straight back in the middle of the sector surrounded by enemy ships with none of the backup I had. The missions are also a bit difficult when you begin.
Really good game so far :) Only thing I've noticed is sometimes it refuses to type in numbers when selecting quantities, or refuses to change from the last number used. That's all though.
