Default OT - Hyperiums

So I discovered the massively multiplayer game hyperiums just on Saturday, and started up a game. Has anyone else played the game? What did you find worked for you at the start up of the game?

I've also found their explanations for some things (ie manual) to be somewhat lacking in certain areas... is anyone super familiar with the game?

Right, well that was very helpful Thanks for the input

Actually, my sarcasm aside, it's pretty cool - though definitely far simpler than SEiv. What would it take to run a massively multiplayer SEiv?

well, considering it's limited to 20 players, a rewrite of some of the source code.

and i havn't played hyperium, so i couldn't comment. didn't look at the webpage much either.

i could use my megaphone to tell people to aviod this thread. given my success getting angry mobs together, they'd all come here.
