wow...downloaded this game, it came out of nowhere! I am suprised I haven't heard of this game before...it is very cool IMo, just the ability to hop in ship and travel to different planets.

There is a lot of cool downloadables, I suggest you try some, new solar systems, ships, etc.

I also believe this game has TONS of pontential. I believe a well-funded development team can use the same basic game engine, but mod it to make an exciting MMO or something with exciting missions interplanetary bases-like aces high in space or something. Now that would be cool:cool:

Seriously, think about it-you can really turn this game into something if you take the same engine-just code it to make it multiplayer, with more detail in the planets (more cities, etc.) more ships, whatever....

well anyway, I thought this game was a true space SIMULATION. It is the first time in a game where I have had trouble controlling a spacecraft.

Thinkin about it it'd be nice if they had jets that move the thing left and right without rotating any..

You can. Change into translation mode. I forget what the key command is. Theres rotation and translation modes for the RCU's.

Heh, I pity the crew of that shuttle. They aren't going to survive re-entry.

Actually, it has a bit of a sci-fi element to it...it is not just space shuttle.

there are some cool, futuristic ships like the shuttle-a and delta glider, and you take off from bases on mars, the moon, and what not.

The space shuttle was a recent add-on I believe from a recent patch, the original orbiter had no space shuttle.

Thats what makes it so cool btw, taking off from a mars base, going to the moon, landing on a base there, then from there heading back to earth.
