No. It's gay world championship gunbound now.

I want someone to make a Gunbound Original emulated server.

I will pay big goldz to the person that can accomplish this.

I had my battle suit for when someone I knew wanted to play ava-on, and my many many fashion suits for ava-off. But yeah, renting sucks big time.

No.

And yes, the learning curve is quite steep. I STRONGLY suggest reading the forums on the site, there is TONS of useful information there.

If you're in a frigate or T2 frigate moving fast enough it's not much of a problem. Tracking on those big boys sucks nuts.

As I found out the hard way, dual webbers will remedy that problem pretty readily.

Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

They can just scoop your containers and reprocess them to get the contents iirc.

EVE online gets you fucked over by idiots with way too much time on their hands who've been playing since beta. It's good but prepared to lose your first newbie corp to people who think they're way cleverer than you because they know the tricks.

Yeah vut EVE has way more scope for that. I was in the ill-fated first gooncorp. Having said that, it was still good fun even while being completely screwed over

Long story but essentially someone on SA knew this bloke who played EVE who then registered and seemed to decide to help us. Turns out he was the alt of one of the main guys on EVE back then (istavan? I forget...) Anyway, we're doing quite well setting up on our own with mining trips to low sec space and so on (we already had a cruiser, I think) when we get war declared on us by this little corp.

We weren't worried really, it seemed they only had a few frigates etc. Nothing to worry about. Until they attacked, of course. The frigs were chock full of high tech gear which completely destroyed us. Turns out that this little corp was essentially alts of bored high level guys from the big corp with pretty much unlimited funding. Because of this and a few other things, gooncorp more or less imploded and then of course Istavan (or whoever it was) comes back to the forum and offers us a place in his mining corp or something. We didn't know it was him at the time but essentially he wanted to turn us into his mining bitches.

Once he got called out, he posted loads about how he was so smart and so skilled because he fooled us. Haw haw haw.

That was just a rough outline, loads more shit happened. Essentially, bored assholes were doing this to a lot of the newbie corps popping up. This may have changed but that used to be the state of play. Still fun though but not sure if I'd go back.

Okay, so if I'm to start playing, what do I need to know? Which servers are newbie friendly? Or if there's no difference, where do EC people play? Does the Free Trial come with any gameplay restrictions?
