Yeah nevermind, bought 16 steam keys of it on 3rd party sites for 39 rubles (0,441246 USD) for me and my friends. So yeah... Not even 5$...

Yeah, we did! This game is very fun, I wonder why it's so unpopular.

Probably because it's 11 years old. Games don't live forever. Very, VERY few games manage to keep a stable and strong fanbase for over a decade. No matter how good it is.

Cuz there is too many toxic people on an very old game with 300 players a days (at peak)..

I think it's just got a high learning curve and some really good players can wipe entire servers of players

it was never popular even at its height, it's always be niche. Great 'inhouse' game though.

for 5 dollars you will get lots of fun for sure.

Draktok hit it, the game's learning curve is too steep especially with 4 aliens and 2 commanders to try. A game this complex needs a campaign to get players familiar with each role.

i was pretty popular for the year or two after it came out, but it's steep learning curve and massive amount of game variability makes it both tough for new players and incredible for regular players.

Similar to NS1 before it. As long as there is a handful of good servers that are full, the game lives on.

Higher skill cap, and im pretty sure I remember hearing peopel kicking or leaving if someone didnt know how to play commander and stuff like that. But games like this generally dont get popular out side of launch week.
