C2 was never wanted in this way. Now I've played this game for nigh on 8 years (Original Zim here) and I was captivated by the SS universe. The style of the game was unique, the fluidity was there and best of all, the gameplay was very solid. I, like many others, fell in love with that original game. But, despite being an excellent game, there was never great publicity around it. I was personally waiting for the time when SS was caught in the publics eye and we will have masses of new players swarming the server. But that never happened.

Now back in 2007 we, the players,were promised C2. This was going to revolutionise the SS universe with upgrades everywhere. There was to be new zones, better graphics, updated UI, new skills and massive numbers of new players that would really kick start the player base from hundreds to thousands. It was an exciting time. The suggestions sub-forum was awash with great ideas that were all promised to "be in C2" (trademarked). Now C2 was meant to be done in 2007. That's where all the time and resources were being put anyway.

Fast forward many years to 2011 and the player base has been static for a long time. No new players joining, all content done by all players and all wars virtually negated by super-alliances between about 20 teams. But things were to change. C2 was to be released. The thing we were promised 5 years ago was finally to be released and reinvigorate the SS universe, upgrading everything along the way.

But what did we get? A shitty, half-arsed, buggy, sluggish game that has none of the charm of C1, none of the fluidity and none of the gameplay that we have grown to love. Players leaving left right and centre is no surprise to me. When all content is done, wars are squeezed out by dullards and the gameplay you loved is taken out, there's no reason to keep playing. The only chance SS has of growing and becoming great again is to ditch this C2 failure, go back to C1, add in new content and advertise it around the Internet - which for some reason has never happened over all these years. Do that and maybe SS will survive yet.

why sure u can take m place in the lifestream. i warn you though.. people are gona fuck with you and piss you off for well... next to no reason... Enjoy And Goodluck ^,^

If it wasn't for our loving and caring community I would've quit already. C2 gameplay is just not as fun as C1 gameplay for some reason.

yeah if i didnt know the people in this game well i woulda been long gone.

More active and stable customer support, more focus on long-term content plans, better quality insurance so that content that comes out don't stay unplayable for an extent of time, and for gods sake... is Jeff even alive?
