Jumped into the cockpit and will try to take off soon. Maybe I will find some good freight runs, fight some pirates or whatever the universe will offer me! ^^
Godspeed!

Please note that the game is still in BETA phase! Because of this there are some bugs which might lead to problems playing the game. On the other hand you pay just a fraction of the normal price.

Seems cool, just like to know what the gold upgrade IAP does?

Too bad it's an MMO.

Are the Traveller RPG elements licensed?

Here is a post about the pricing: ---> http://www.traveller-ar.com/develope...iphone-mmorpg/

And here answers from the devs to some of my questions and my concerns about the IAP.

I hope so ^^ Here something from their website about the team behind the game:

Instabuy - looks awesome ! Back with impressions in a bit. I love the Traveller universe ever since my pen and paper gaming days back in the 80's !

This looks pretty cool but the trailer makes it look very confusing? Also as a iPod touch user does this mean I can't play it as it says it uses GPS?

[Meph Isto]

Wow, this looks like an --->EPIC<--- game in the works. Downloading now and will post impressions tonight or tomorrow. For .99 cents "Beta" price vs $4.99 future price, I'll skip the dollar menu burger today .

Anyone else been playing this yet???

[FRS]

Agreed, can't wait to give it a try. Thanks for expanding the great RPG/MMO options on the App store, and thanks to the original poster for opening the thread to alert us to its existence.

I want to love this. I love the source material. But I've had half an hour with it and so far it seems like a buggy, impossible to control, mess of a game.

I read the tutorial thoroughly and got dumped in space after character creation. Trying to control the view with tilt is almost impossible. The starfield that indicates direction of flight is almost not visible. I gave up after the game dumped me onto the intro screen after I tried to restart it from the multi-task bar after a phonecall. Then it refused to restart.

I really hate to be so negative.

I could go on but I'm too depressed. Someone please tell me I'm an ass and I've got this wrong.

I would dearly love to be wrong about this :/
