A short survey - How did you find Discovery?

[JD.Bane]

We have a friend who lives a long way off. We occasionally get together to do some Traveler RP, but wanted more regular gaming, even if it was just over the internet. He went looking for a space sim and sent us copies of freelancer. The two of us trained for a bit on the single player and then joined our friend on the Disco server. Eventually our friend's brother joined in.

Now I'm the only one left playing. The reason the others give for stopping is pirates took the fun out of it for them. I can see that, the lag over here in the US means it's harder to PvP effectively. (Or, at least, I've found it so.) Being on the dead side of PvP *all* the time can be disheartening.

I think a fair number of people come and go simply because the PvP is forced on them when all they really wanted was to fly neat ships and RP with friends. Which isn't to say that Disco is bad, but simply that they didn't find what they came for.
