Version: Universal Combat
Pros: Its huge. There are lots of things to do and is complex.
Cons: The graphics, sound and effects suck. If you touch water, you hit the bottom instantly. Ground combat is too laggy, water combat is buged and air combat is too much like space combat with no physics or gravity. Space combat is too easy to kill and die. while carriers behave too much like fighters, a fighter can kill anything in less than 3 hits. Most race pics dont work. Some caste and classes are meant only for NPCs and you have nothing to do with them but explore. They should have shrunk the scale by about 10X, then they could focus more on grapics and game engines. I would not have bought this if they hadnt lowered the price.
