Is that it really seems like the kind of game that needs a 50 hour investment before you upgrade your ship to the point where the game becomes fun.
I did enjoy wcsaga though even if it was so difficult that it made me hate everything for a month.
Yeah Wittgenstein is right there, you can have fun in the little ships. It's not the kind of game where you're grinding through ships as a mechanic, every ship is supposed to stay viable, so a fighter like a viper can take down a bigass anaconda in assassination missions. If you're looking for grind, they instead added powerplay, so you join a faction and grind missions and junk, for the crowd looking for that. They also added a mode where you just jump in and dogfight other players in different maps, earn progression points and crap. I don't do those things, mainly casually jump in as a break from whatever main game I'm playing to get in a quick space battle. It's pretty easy to trade enough capital for a big ship if you want to, but I never liked that much and made my millions just from killin.' You can do everything right from the start in small ships from killin or mining to bulletin board missions and community goals. They even added small exploration craft so you don't have to save up for an asp if you want to head into deep space straight away. |
