Huh, I didn't get that far. A few years ago I used to take off and land at the stations and planets, but I don't think there even was PvE combat then. People showed me their cool ships that they paid thousands of dollars for, and that was it. They were really cool... A year-ish ago I logged in and decided it might be fun to jump off the side of the station floating in a gas giant. Died, woke up in a medical bay, and no controls worked. I guess its about time to look again.
