I like how there are systems with several stations in them. The outposts are pretty cool. All we need is the space diner from 'Spaceballs' and we've got the set.

It's the little touches as well: seeing the glow of other ships in super cruise really adds to the feel of a living, breathing universe. And when I first gave it a whirl in 2.0 I swear I heard radio chatter form other ships when I was docked at an outpost. Don't remember hearing this is 2.02 however. I think there may also be a problem with shadows just now. Or the lack of them, rather.

I keep having to remind myself it's only a beta, though. Already feels more complete than many finished games I've played.

Haven't had any interdictions yet, though. Which is fine. I suck at combat. I'm still only playing with kb+mouse which works great the rest of the time. Going to have to find some space on my desk to set up my Warthog if I'm going to do some of those high paying bounty hunting jobs.
