Almost got a pirate viper after it started attacking me. I tried to board it after disabling it but found out that my shuttle was also disabled.

@RogueDragon05 i have a copy of nova with dozens of slots in it (e.g. a pirate fleet with me in a pirate carrier) but the code expired when i put my old harddrive in my new PC. I sure know what i get for the 30 bucks but that was strange seeing the price hasnt changed at all in the past years

[RogueDragon05]

@Buemmo I can think of plenty of games that are twice as expensive or more and brand new that suck when compared to this one.

Oh yeah, I wanted to add in regards to not registering the game. At some point, you'll be haunted by an invincible starbridge loaded with all the weapons mankind has to offer who will hunt you down to no ends and hails you your ultimatum to register the game or face the wrath of Hector until you do so.

You know, the quickest way to randomize missions is to go to a system that has more than one landable stellar objects, land in one place, check mission, and if it doesn't have it, land in the next place, check mission, and if it doesn't have it, then land back on the first place, rinse and repeat until you get the desired mission.

@HardWarUK

What is really strange is that this was its original price from 2002. $30 in 2002=bargain. $30 in 2011=rip-off. If it was $10 by now, I would have bought it already. Heck, I think it would probably be a lot more popular, and definitely more profitable.

[LordNifty]

Remember to make copies of your pilot file at critical places(giving it an appropriate name), and if you want to go back to a specific point, copy the file that stores that point, and make that copy(yes, a copy of a copy) your pilot file.

@HardWarUK i think its a shame selling this game for 30$. I mean look at how old it is!
