One thing i dont understand.....

Sapphiretech is a global company hence their products are distributed all over the world then they come up with some bullshit contest/competition thats only available for a specific select region/country & no where else.....

we Europeans buy your fucking hardware too you bunch of c**ts. how unfair is it to limit the availability to one specific country/region when everyone across the globe buys their products.

Id understand it if they mentioned that they ran into a load of copyright issues if they tried to launch the same competition in Europe so didnt go ahead with it. thats fine - but at least launch another scheme/contest/competition that EVERYONE can participate in & not just 1 country.

The game looks very different from other shooters, being entirely in Space. A new pack was just released with more weapons(previously the game had only one, with different firing modes).

However.
The game has barely any players online at any moment(don't know if it has changed since the update), it is extremely frustrating until you learn how to defend yourself in a match, because many of the players you'll face have been playing it for a long time and you'll most likely end up dead several *DOZEN* times before even knowing where the shots are coming from. Also, you'll get stabbed in the back, a lot.
It's also difficult not to get lost because you're floating in Space, and there is no UP and DOWN. It can get quite confusing.

So, long story short: too few players. Those who play will kill you so many times leaving you with a sense of rage that you'll want to rage-quit often and not touch the game for a long time.
And it's a shame, because the game had potential. Also, making it DX10-only basically sealed its destiny.

i think to be a gold member it has to be a 4850, 4870, 5850, or 5870 not 100% sure on that, then you get 5 free promotion in a year

EDIT: I just checked with the rules thing and they did say all you have to do is have a sapphire Card to become a gold member

Guys, register whatever hardware you got. I don't think you have to register specific graphics cards though :)
