It’s not like I post often enough but maybe I should do it a bit more. After all this is kind of exciting.
Since my last postings several things are happening. The latest record breaker purchase beat the old record $100,000 USD by multiples. Virtual asteroid club sold for record-setting $635,000. USD! Yeah! Really!
Other changes include Vehicles, Space Travel (including Warp Speed to Other Planets) and removal of the rent system are changing the dynamics of the game. On Becoming a Citizen.
Latest that has captured my attention as is still fresh to act on is the Land Deeds for $100 USD closing starting today. Also available in batches of 2, 5, 10, 50 and 100 from the authorized reseller. Some early buyers from the first batch of Land Deeds sold in December (I think) are reselling for a modest profit just before the auction begins closing on this series of Land Deeds. Which is today…
So you got to wonder…
Is it just a classic Bum’s Rush?
I guess to be honest that’s what I’m really expecting. You know, really, everything about this game is kind of annoying. Nothing goes as you would expect. From the hangars to the apartments to the stores, even the Land Areas. Nothing is easy. Or cheap. Remember the bank fiasco? Now that was pretty bad when you paid 400 grand for a pawnshop times 4. Then OMFG Rocktropia and the stupid names for the ores and,… Jesus! How the Storekeepers don’t work to Piloting to some cheezy asteroid that doesn’t work the same as the planet, never mind the shipping problem if you do actually go there! The ATM thing too was a pretty rude slap in the face. From learning to shoot to wearing the proper armor to mining and constructing
I guess I’m always feeling ripped by the lack of information. And, I always kind of felt their design team was off in some lala land totally oblivious to the gravity of their situation. What’s it called when designers do this? Vapourware? You would think there was a book you could get.
