I restarted Steam, but still no go.

I got a big download when I started the game just to check it?

[PhatFreD]

I think I got it going now. The pre-load window popped up in steam.

Are many toggers playing this?

[PhatFreD]

I tried all weekend and couldn't get it to download from the 3FL servers, so I cannot comment on it.

Played it when it first came out for awhile,you need to get a few players in TS or venti and it would make it a better game.We cranked it up at disco's LAN and the boys had a bit of fun.

Yeah it was fun but it feels very rough around the edges. The game that is, not the boys at disco's lan.

Oh i sucked so bad.

I bought it when it first came out. I enjoyed the moving about in space, but I had a pretty similar experience to you. Shoot shoot shoot shoot nothing , enemy responds a second later, bang bang, I'm dead. And this happens at least 75% of the time. Clearly there's a trick to it, other than aiming and lead times.

I can imagine a bunch of mates on a LAN all new to the game (or at least similar skill levels) having a blast.
