Okay wtf is up with this crafting. For a needlessly complex system their chemistry is wrong. Only one I decided to nitpick apart Ethanol http://aena.at/craftmap/item694.html they have you reacting ethylene and carbonic acid which does not give you ethanol. You can make ethanol from ethylene via acid-catalization but that with phosphoric acid or sulfuric acid. I need to stay away from this game or little poo poo like this will piss me off. If your going to go this complex at least get the chemistry right.

Woah are you telling me I can't actually make HMX explosives just from the stuff I get boiling various types of wood and fish? What a jip.

This game is pretty cool from what I've played so far. It's basically like Star Wars Galaxies 2. I can do sweet rolls while killing dudes with dual pistols.

Game Vox allows for sponsors while Dolby Axon is made by the great company Dolby who know sound, but I got a feeling mumble might be best despite all the security holes in it and that it doesn't work well on linux.

I am currently looking around the game right now. The game does feel very much like SWG in many ways, though there are places where they do go and do their own thing (such as abilities). I accidentally hit escape and went without most of the tutorial so I'm self taught but combat seems familiar enough. Enhancing the grade of the resources from corpses was something I was also quick to learn, though I don't know any actual real crafting yet.

On the downside... I know that it is alpha and 1am Pacific, but there are only 14 players online right now. Not Goons, players. The graphics also look like they belong to a game made 5-10 years ago, but that is something that I can forgive. The controls are a bit clunky too - they brought along some of the bad from SWG along with the good.

On the whole it could be a lot of fun, it just needs bodies and more work.
