Miner Wars 2081 is a 6DOF action-survival space-shooter simulation-game set in the year 2081, 10 years after the destruction of all planetary objects in the Solar System.
You operate an advanced mining ship in a fully destructible and open-world environment, which remains persistent as you complete missions or play online with others. Realism and survival are key aspects of gameplay. Inventory and the way you use resources such as fuel, ammunition, oxygen, ore, and weapons are important when surrounded by dozens of warring factions.
The gameplay is driven by an epic story and offers a choice of single player, co-op, and death-match multi-player.
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.

Hi. I can't start the game. I keep getting BSOD. Any suggestions?
Win 7 64
i5 750
4gb ram
2x AMD 6950 2gb (tried both xfire on and off)
Do you have the latest graphic device drivers and service pack for your operation system?
Online requirement for installation and single player games. No thanks, I'll pass. I was about to buy this DRM free game when I found this on the Miner Wars home page.
"Network: Active internet connection required during installation and during game play!"
That sounds like DRM to me. Star Citizen is going to offer a true DRM free option. You can either play on their persistent server, or run your own private server or single player offline without any online authentication.
I bought this in alpha. Love the game. I will not buy another copy for LAN until they change this always on requirement.
I keep trying to update but my connection keeps getting terminated after I get to around 20%

Any news on when the Desura version will be updated to Beta?
It just did!
Internet connection required makes Panda not want to lift species out of extinction.
Do you plan on ever supporting the Mac and GNU/Linux platforms? Specifically the latter would be nice. :)
