Tedious

Almost good, but ultra grindy and blue stars are terrible. They give you credits to PvP, but there’s no balance or match making in it and the bots have terribly annoying abilities like vengeance. Just becomes a chore to play each day.

Bring Back the Old White Stars

My clan and I played Hade’s Star for years. Sadly, the White Stars were changed. Now it’s all about Chain Rays and Dispatch. No more 5v5 and relic drone spamming, either. If your clan is outnumbered, just forget it. The older version of White Stars was more intense, and just more fun. Please bring it back!

Snoozefest

Real lack of any decent development. They gave up on console support for a big update….what update? The Cerb drone? Does anyone even use it?

The grind passes the time I guess but for no real purpose. Real lack of new players. Constantly pit against top tier players. Boring as f…

The white stars are actually ok if you’re in a half decent corp and probably the only thing of interest, but what are the rewards for winning? Extra artifact boost….ok….lame.

The blue stars are a complete unbalanced waste of time. 99.99% of matches are populated players with far more advanced modules. I’ve yet to be the least advanced player. It’s not about strategy when you’re clearly at a disadvantage. You can’t expect me to believe that I’m the only low tier player looking for blue stars? Or maybe I am because the “all players in one pot” system is broken and lazy development at best and clearly no one other than the maxed out players want to play it.

Good game but

Wait times too long

Nice update one idea

Maybe black stars the size of white stars but acts like red stars players fight against each other, Cerberus, and a new grey faction (maybe a ship that hunts you?) you can get artifacts hydrogen and credits.
