I have decided to not spend another dime after seeing I have spent over 6k to help fund. I truly hope that this game can become a well balance and fun game for everyone to enjoy and spend many years in. I came back after being away for several months as I had not seen any new improvements to the game. I see that no new areas and gameplay loops are added. Just a lot of the same old from years ago. I tried to do a combat mission to remove some claim jumpers and spend an hour looking for them. The pay was only 5k to complete the mission. It is not worth my time. I will be back after pyro and server meshing is working to try out the missions and combat at that time. I look forward to Science, Scanning, Crafting, Repairing Ships, Exploring new systems, and Base Building. I am happy the servers seem a lot more stable and faster. My problem is the lack of things to do that make a MMO you progress inside. It just feels like an empty area of space you can fly in and around with not much meaningful things to do or build. I can not take my repair ship out and do repair jobs. I can not go fight in an area against vandull and have meaningful progression with rewards. I can not build a base and defend it against others. It feels like an empty demo.
