Oddly I never played that one. So I don’t know.
I could never figure out the proverbial act 2, but instead of flying back to base with your goods, you build relationships with alien races and trade with them. So it had this cool gameplay loop of funding little expeditions deeper into the star map and meeting new aliens, figuring them out, also figuring out where the hostile aliens are and avoiding them. Act 2 was, no joke, going back in time to figure out the origins of the Uhlek from the first game but time travel beats your ship to bits and I couldn't really survive once I'd gone back in time.

It's too bad it never got popular enough to see something like Urquan masters because the core game was fantastic but looked dos as loving dos could be. Mostly text and children's drawings in sprite form.

It's funny how when I think of innovative early sci-fi games it's the star flights and controls and not loving wing commander and it's even stranger that's the kind of game it sounds like a lot of citizens actually want to play.

Will the dental health of our commandos be properly simulated?

If you don't brush twice every 24 hours in game, accurately modeled tooth decay should commence.

The worst type of enamel decay. Mr. Stimpire would probably love being an in-game dental surgeon.

Not only is income down, citizen registrations are down too.

New citizens per year (November 1st of previous year + 12 months)

2013: 290,000
2014: 351,000
2015: 400,000
2016: 612,000
2017: 252,000

This is the worst year on record for new subs, by far. 1.9 million citizens were tricked welcomed into the 'verse so far, and that must be almost total market saturation.

If a basic account costs $45, the 2017 subs account for $12mil of their haul. 2018 will bring less than half that.

Why do they even have this spreadsheet public when it so obviously shows they've jumped the shark? I'll bet people are lining up to code their MMO for them.

Well, this seems to ring true with my suspicion that CIG's base is getting narrower and taller.
