Free game, you download, play, and if you like it you register for the whole game.
It's awesome.
This is the reason why my PS time will suffer...

Sounds interesting, backstory a lot like PS (or what happens after PS). Downloading.

Yay, an EV game for PC!...damn..EVO pwns EVN totally. EVN just looks nicer. Gah. That's why Knoll and I are making a conversion mod for EVN.

ROFL!
Sputty, they already made EVO and EV Plug-Ins for Windows Nova. Just download, convert, stick in Plug-Ins folder, and play.
When you want to play Nova, just take them out of Plugins folder.
Do a search or go to the Ambrosia add-ons page.

ARG I NEED THE WHOLE GAME BUT I CAN'T GET MYSELF TO PAY 30 BUCKS!
I become part of the federation secret service thing and I got a Federation gunboat with about 4 mil pumped into it! I'm also a space pirate on the side, I go leviathan hunting cuz they usually drop 400,000-600,000 credits!
My ship is soooooooo nice! has 500 shields 1000 armor, 5 medium laser, 2 4x light laser turrets(very nice for picking off those fucking Viper fighters that are always on my ass!), 4 layers of carbon fiber and the aurianon steel! I have 2 hellfire missile launchers that allow me to take down ANY ship. AND every single sigma upgrade I could do.
But I've hit the road block of going as far as the demo will let me!
who has a way for me to get the whole game for free ?!?!?!?!?!?!
if I don't I think I might end up eating my own head!!!

I had Manticore in one. An Auroran Carrier in another. A Polaris Raven. and a Fed Carrier. I never played the Vell'Os missions though
On a scale of 1 to 10 how much is this game worth?
My JK2 + Enemy Territory combo is slowly begining to get boring so i will soon have to find a new kick. :)

Well, it's not as good as EVO, if you have a mac, even an older one(Quadra or higher) then you can DL it and play This game is good. I probably won't pay though. I've already basically beaten the game. Maybe when we work on our mod more

I forget. Just do the courier missions. If they're attacking you you pissed them off somehow.

Dio- 9.1-9.4. This game would take 300-400 hours to do every single thing.
Bighoss, it's randomly available in Auroran bars. But, to make it 100% certain to be in an Auroran Bar, refuse the Vell-Os storyline. When a Nameless Vell-Os approaches you and asks you to do him a favor, SAY NO!
Then, run like hell cause the Feds hate you.
Get into Auroran Space, and you should get a mission that is "Take Mu'Randa to Goliath".
Note: Create a new pilot for this. Your pilot can only do one storyline, and your in the Fed one.

Little question: How do you set a course in the map? It says clear course on one button, but I can't get one to begin with. Got a frigate, lots of cargo space, courses would really help with trade.

IDE frigate was my first capital ship. Shift click and continue to do so for a course

Ah, the first one has to be a shift click, too. That was a stupid oversight by me. Thanks.

I have two awesome cargo runs. One is in Polaris space, so I'll skip that one.
The other is, buy Luxury Goods on Europa in the Sol system for Medium Price, then sell them at Earth in the Sol system for High Price. Soon, expand to a few Terrapins. Then, when you have enough, hire a few Pegasi. After that, rent a Leviathan and you'll be hauling 800k credits per run.
It's not quite as good as the Polaris run but it's decent.
I wub this game.
