Heres My Two Cents...and I expect change back
It looks and from the demo...a single ship exploring, pirateing...you name it universe so...think Elite, Privateer, etc...
As far as Online play...it could be Online without pay...IE: Neverwinternights...
It could have a universe with parameters...that give a random function, with certain parameters, and the missions will always be different..
Now I want to know if there will be customization of my ship...and I can pick different types of ship hulls, and if I can switch sides during a war, and if I can....(author continues to ponder...)
