So, let me get this straight. Each 'race' will most likely be geared towards being the best at a certain 'class', and all the people currently playing that class with the generic race will essentially be inferior forever unless they reroll?
Isn't that usually how this plays out?
Maybe they'll let you change race in game, as an extention of the cloning system... I think its like a genetics system.

Having other playable races makes a lot of sense in TR. It would have made more sense to have mentioned this was a longterm goal to the testers though. Some of the stuff they've announced smacks more of damage control than any part of longterm vision.

Damage control implies there is something good that just needs a quick adjustment. This game is a clusterfuck looking to grab some press so the first week box sales aren't lacking a comma.

This thread is depressing.  I hope TR ships soon, so we can all forget about it.

Depends on your definition of "bear"
That said, it went pretty much without a hitch. (At least on my server)

If the launch goes well because no one cared, does it still count as a smooth launch?

I dont think having a server with 4 people on it launch crash-free is worthy of praise.

The game is performing really well with very little lag. The server I'm playing on, Pegasus is at medium load most of the day without showing any signs of sluggish behavior. How many servers did they launch with? Finding groups isn't that hard, and that can be important if you are a Soldier who likes to use chain guns. Chain guns are currently the largest money sink in the game. At 3 credits per shot, I spent 4000 credits to solo a mission that paid out 1500. Grouping is the way to save money for sure. She weighs 150 kilograms and fires $200 custom 2 cartridges at 10,000 rounds per minute. It costs $400,000 to fire this weapon... for 12 seconds.

It's 'custom tooled' cartridges, meaning they are crimped by hand.

I thought it was, but I couldn't be sure. The russian accent is thick on that one.
