Miner Wars is a 6DOF underground and space shooter played in a fully destructible environment and is a combination of single player story game and MMO. As a player, you operate an advanced mining ship in an open world asteroid belt area. You dig kilometers of tunnels, harvest the ore, travel the solar system, fight your enemies and discover mysterious alien secrets. Game play is led by an epic story and is a combination of a single/multi-player game, cooperative, or you against everyone. The story will introduce you to many types of missions: rescue, exploration, revenge, base defense, theft, transportation, stealth, search and destroy, pure harvesting, racing or just flying around and destroying everything you see. High quality rendering and special effects, realistic physics, unique 'destructible engine' and game area with no borders will make this game an experience that is out of this world. OS: MS Windows XP / Vista / 7. Active Internet Connection Required to Play.

I tried out the demo, and aside from a few quirks this is pretty impressive. I hope the upcoming Kinetic Void, which is more of a galactic sandbox space sim, has mining as deep as this. Hell, even half as deep as this. Two different takes on the same genre, really, but I have to say I'm loving the ultra-realistic, single-solar system feel you're going for. I'm a little wary of the required active internet connection, since I got disconnected once during about 10 minutes of play. Still, I'll be watching this closely to see how the 2081 version turns out.
ok i bought the game and logged into Miner Wars website profile. and it still says "demo mode" and has "buy now" windows on the menu. is it supposed to say that after you buy it? if not, how do i fix it?
how is this 50% off? when its $20 on your website. i can't purchase it using the options on your site., and im not paying double here. wtf?
sweet! they fixed the price.
im going to get this!!!
game sucks not good for 20$
I bought the game but not on Desura. Do I get a Desura code?
I'm still pretty confused with this all, does this version grant acess to the MMO aspects of the game or is it strictly SP/Co-op. Actually maybe I should say is there a single purchase somewhere that gives me acess to everything the MMO the SP and Coop and if so Is this version it. If not how do I go about finding this illusive product.
Very intrested in the game just want to make sure my money is going where I would enjoy it the most.
Thanks in advance! -Axis Nova
