Great shots! Is this a joystick game, or are mouse controls acceptable?
I used to work for a living, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

There are plenty of people out there playing with mice and gamepads, though personally I'd consider a joystick a must. Even a cheap one like my 15 year old Logitech ! Nice pic by the way Corsair.

Thanks ! Another one from the same area :  Nice pic of that Imperial Clipper, they are beautiful ships and I always have a small tear when I have to shoot one down (but the bounty is usually good !)

Yep, if you wanna fly in style the Clipper is the only way to go!  Visiting Pluto, not much to see. Not really surprising  Python trying to hide on an asteroid, caught in the spotlight!  TZ Arietis I think

In case you don't know there is a high res screenshot function, press Alt-F10 and receive ~70MB of HD glory. I had to downsize this one a bit lots to upload, I don't usually use uploader services so I hope the link works. Open up the image and zoom in. The station looks awesome close up. http://imgur.com/C3i3avM

If this was single player rather than multi I would be very tempted.

Well, by all means- while it is strictly on-line (i.e.: you simply need a continuous, stable Internet Connection) it IS single player if so you wish...
Solo mode is to play strictly with ONLY NPCs.
At the same time you still experience and interact with the dynamic social-economical background simulation.
(which may be debatable, but at the time of writing it is so)

You can also play in coop only mode against AI, called "private group" play
Scully: Victim died of multiple stab wounds.
Mulder: *throws her a file* Ever heard of the knife alien?

Dont think of it as being vastly outnumbered ... but just having a large target selection.
The only thing more accurate than incoming fire, is incoming friendly fire
