A fresh press release from Hullbreach Online, that Wii Internet Channel MMO we reported on a few weeks back, states that some people have decided to give it a try. With 1,175 members, the game has grown a bit. There are now 576 different sectors that players can hyperjump to, as well as numerous quests and combat scenarios to complete. From the press release, it sounds like this thing is growing pretty fast.
While we haven't played it ourselves (darn this blogging), we love to hear about this kind of stuff. Ambition projects are few and far between, it seems, so we look forward to December. Why? Well, that's when the final release hits, which will have NPC interaction, asteroid mining and player-to-player bartering.
Has anyone given this a try? Are you finding it to your liking? Or, is it a waste of time?

I joined and didn't like it much. Too buggy and the ships were too difficult to control for my tastes.

Still haven't had a chance to give it a go, but judging by these responses, doens't sound like much fun. Still, I'll try it for myself.

Tried it out and it wasn't worth the 30 minutes I spent with it. The ships are extremely difficult to control and left me pretty much unable to accomplish anything. Also, I don't have a keyboard for my Wii, and by the time I finally managed to craft a response to a message from someone, they had already assumed I wasn't going to respond and flown off.

So... it's like most retail Wii games, then?

Do you even own a Wii? Have you even played Hullbreach? Even with your hyperbole aside, there's no comparison between the two.

If some of you guys would actually take some time to understand the game! Its a great game once you get more into it. I have been playing for a few weeks and I have 3 chars. each with ethier a Sloop or a Runabout and with over 50k credits. The Open Beta may become a Closed Beta.

I spent a few hours with it but not once did I manage to run into another player in any sector. It does have a good concept behind the game and has a chance of being more but it needs lots more work before being called up as a worthy game.
