Worth coming back to?

    Hello there fellow noobs and friends! I’m not sure how many are here that recognize me…I was a former mod here for a good while, Admin for a while, leader of various alliances for a while (WAR, NAP, etc) and general U1 addict. I’ve been away a long time. Kinda sorta, perhaps, MAYBE thinking of possibly doing a comeback run in a new universe. If anyone recognizable is monitoring this transmission, please respond! What’s the state of things? Is it worth playing in 2025 for an old dog like me? Will I even recognize the game and the players? I see some old top 10’s are still sitting there in some archives.

    its heavy p2w now but US is nowhere near as bad as some other communities. volans might be your best bet to jump into. you may recognize some of the NOOB team there to help get you started. a lot of expo fleets there to hunt as well

    Quote thingy is weird on my phone. Bad format! But maybe. I’m in a touch with a few.
