Loving It...

but the load times...

Published on September 22, 2018 By Xzanron In Star Control

I'm thoroughly enjoying the game. I love the little details, the alien conversations and then there's the little cultural references... I mean Wolf 359!

Even with the game on my SSD drive though, I can still go make a cup of tea when I start the game. The torture of not being able to play... of being taunted that fun is just out of reach.

A critical quality of life issue for me is that there is no indication of which planets and systems I've visited before. Not a problem for the first ten systems or so.. but my memory isn't as good as it used to be.

Right.. back to SCO... I think it's finished loading.

I solve that by writing down the name of every system I go to.

It is an old school game, remember?

I'm loving the game also. There needs to be some way of marking the map.

I'm using that . Unfortunately it means my bookmarks list a bit useless, as I can no longer quickly find stuff, as it's just a huge list, and the search doesn't process my comments. It's a quality of life thing, as I said.
