Woo this brings back some memories! Alla those wireframed ships, hundreds of worlds to travel to, etc etc. Things like sticking the engine at the front of the ship and all the dangerous stuff sharing space with the bridge and crew quarters at the rear. I had great hopes for this game but after playing it for a while, well. If you want something that is really, really close look at Elite 2, and Elite: First Encounters. And if you say those games suck, you're right. But they're the very closest I can think of to Universe. -- Tan Teck Weng -- It`s tragic how families are torn apart 2nd Year Arts -- by simple things, like wild animals.
