I played it, got tired of sitting for hours, mining for the corp, or flying around killing rats over and over...
was fun when the corp got into a war with another corp though, we launched all our fleet and sieged their home base
they got their arses handed to them
but I got tired of it
must say though, it was the best space RPG I've ever played
sort of, the game "Freelancer" never became
BORK!
