I've been playing EVO unregistered for a while now (gonna do it soon), and Cap'n Hector started attacking me with a blaze cannon. Then as time went by I was being hit with 3 blaze cannons, then 3 blaze cannons and some phase cannons. Has anybody seen anything else being shot at them by Cap'n Hector?

Weird, I had no idea he upgraded...

No, most of us pay for the game actually.

I have heard of this phenomenon, but I have never experienced it... even though I racked up about 100 hours of game-time before I registered. Hector appeared with ever-increasing frequency, but all he ever did was hail, hail, hail. Oh, and steal about a a third of my bank balance every ten planetary landings or so.

Think about it though... a hundred hours of fun for $25. And the folks who don't get into the game never have to pay. (I tried Ares, for example, but didn't like it.) Shareware is a great business model.

I believe this is my 500th post. I'd like to use this 'anniversary' to thank Ambrosia for supporting the Macintosh platform. It makes me laugh when a PC user requests a version of EVx for Windoze... look how many games we have to do without, or pay top dollar for when they've already been re-released on a budget PC label.

You have been overriden by Overrider You no longer can live

<blushes> I actually have a few thousand hours on that thing, I got it the first month it came out.... I know that I should register, but my parents won't let me <shrugs> I've yelled, reasoned, slammed doors, what more can a person do?

My very first EVO Chronichle called "The UE's Dread" Followed by the "U.E.S. Inconvertrable"

That just stinks Jess! :frown:

To register I had to pay half and my dad would pay for the rest

2! Just 2! VVhere should I post my 200th post?

My very first EVO Chronichle called "The UE's Dread" Followed by the "U.E.S. Inconvertrable"

Reasons I didn't register:

1. At first I figured it was pointless since I only played a little bit at school.

2. I thought EVN was coming out any week now

3. I used to pirate alot.

Since I've gotten the game, reason one went away because I play way too often at school not to feel guilty. Reason two because I looked at the webboard about two times. And reason three because I've somehow obtained a moral code. I'm going to register as soon as I can get the money if I can fix up a mac that I recently got for free.

Anybody else seen anything interesting fly out of Cap'n Hector's ship?

Huh. Now I wish I didn't register so I could see the Cap'n go berserk. This is the first I've heard of it actually

Ah well...
