best experience

My best experience in FoM was during beta, way back when no one really knew about it yet. I remember figuring out the door codes were all something to the lines of 77777, 55555, and 45454. Running around to different planets and exploring them for the fun of it. Messing with the master controls and just having a good time exploring. When the game launched, I decided to give it a good try for old times sake and was bummed to find the game how it was. It still has a little potential but needs work (as do alot of games today i'm seeing...) and the ammount of work it needs is enough to keep it busy for a good long while. What upsets me the most as others have mentioned is the combat. Frequently i'd charge into combat with a nice little ol' machine gun and end up taking down no one, but having my whole squad mowed down by one or two guys... Whats with that? Whatever it was, i wasn't going to take much of it and ended up quiting. Another peeve was missions. Standing at the entrance to your faction's home base or outpost for an ammount of time while you went on 'patrol'. Afterwards getting paid a meager ammount. Just not worth it. Maybe down the road it'll improve.
