The last few weeks are quite something i haven't seen in a long time. Many active Players on the Planets, so many Friends on Erebos that the Map needs SECONDS to update.
And there's my blood problem. I'm still doing Missions on Erebos right now. And while i must say they are all Dogpoop, at the same time, those Missions are the best in the whole game. They are frustrating because of the jankiness of this game, the weird behavior of the Mantis (sometimes) and the fucked up layout of Erebos itself. But god-damn, I had some serious fun again. No clue how anyone will try doing Erebos Missions without an Energy Subscription but hey, nobody's giving you enough heat to consider changing it, why so. The People pay for the Subscriptions regardless, without the Game isunplayable NOT FUN after Sirius.
The game is old and everything tells you its as old as most German Players. The render distance on Planets is abysmal for a 2025 Game for smaller Mantis (on purpose?), even if it's that Old. You can't see Buffs for a RPGish game. The Map updates slow. Enemies Pop-in super late sometimes. My Systems still get stuck in a state of "Cooldown is activated, but it didn't activate" normal Blasters with a strong speed double load most of the time because it's too fast for the Servers. (no its not my connection if i can play competitive shooters without lag problems) sometimes when collecting Quarks for the Jumpship it just cooldowns without sucking on the stone so i need to wait a full quark reload time before I can suck on another one. The Store UI is terrible. The Ship Equip UI is terrible (why is equipping drones and check what drones i have in 2 different spots?????) Load times when jumping between Systems... Like common there has to be a way to make it a bit more faster this isn't a Bethesda Game. When using the Quantumjump (whatever its called in English) the Ship sometimes flies back a bit for reasons when pressing W the whole time. The Visual bugs, permanent Thermoblasts and all the other new gimmicks from TC. Sometimes the Crew and I look like a Christmas Tree.
Im probably missing some things, and I also know nothing will change. If there would have been any incentive to make PG "competitive" we would have seen anything. Im not really counting the new Ladder System in, it was always planned that you can do things with Skulls, just happened to take you 10+ years or so to implement it.
I may sound salty and grumpy any maybe even wrong in some Parts i wrote, but PG could have been more if there wasn't those 2 other Dead Games, Dino Storm and whatever the other thing is called. I couldn't find anything close to Pirate Galaxy in terms of theme and play style. Spaceship with Items you can unlock, a Story that works with lots of optional PVP that rewards you. Farming Kryo with Friends for Hours, farm Blueprints, get mad at Mantis for not spawning a single golden BP for Days, the adrenaline kick when finally the last blueprint drops. The TERRIBLE Halloween Event you can't see anything other than GREEN, hours of reactor for a ship that's not even worth it for most players. Most of it fucking sucks, but it's fun because you can do it with others, and then it sucks less. But those "others" become less and less because you ignore the Game and don't see the potential it has. Or maybe you don't want to ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯
Can't wait to play the next System in 10 Years!
Armene looks pretty dope! Seriously, great freaking job on that. Also, the thing with the spawning Drones that help you is super cool.
