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.

so the name of the capital is either rich stay, or empire day, either way it should be separated, just an FYI. Neu Berlin (new berlin) or Reichs Stadt (empire city) or would be a better name
the fourth reich.... this wouldn't happen to be referencing to my favorite movie would it?
So a lot of people are giving this game 1's while it's in PRE ALPHA?! That's a bit harsh...
More like completely stupid.
thats the internet for you, i guess they think that since minecraft (actually a very simple game(code wise) and cost about the same), based off of a game code from a long time ago, was pretty much done in alpha and pre-alpha, other than some simple add-ins, that every other game is just as easy to make
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.
doctor_roxo, do you like ka-ka-ka-ka-kaocaine?
