The Universal

[cultist]

This is one online space sim that i have missed but started playing since 10 minutes ago.It has a space part with all the works (trading,pirating,improving you ship) and a planet part (you build the economy,seems complex,it takes a lot of time to build it,but it has many relaxing games to fill your time in between).You can play only space or only planet,you can play both.This game might be a revelation to you.Taken from the site:Features# An ever-expanding universe Dynamic environments built by players# Customise your own world in the galaxy# A unique experience on every planet# Compete on player-run gameworlds Complex economy structures# Huge number of subgames# Earn sheckles, bounty and kudos# Build an advanced economic empire Construct your own industry# Trade and process goods# Gain skills and experience# Life in the virtual universe Racing, cricket, hornball, arcades# Fighting, trading and sitting about# Built-in chat client and music playerSome player guides i found :http://theuniversal.net/mag.php?guide_name=kynnfaqhttp://theuniversal.net/mag.php?guide_name=tomsguideForum page:http://theuniversal.net/forum/Download the game,install it,start it,make a username and enjoy :DThe only problem i see with it is the lack of players atm.From what i know the players are very helpful and the game has an ingame chat incorporated.Time for me to return in the game.Kudos
