I played this game the first time early 2004. I was on mid tour leave from Iraq and I can not stress how exciting it was to hit stateside and see this was released. Over the next 10-12 days, when I wasn't catching up with family, I was posted in front of my computer flying thru the streets of Paragon on my blaster. Over the next several years I continuously played the game whenever I was back in garrison and enjoyed every minute of it. During that time, my wife got into it as well and it lead to some great drunken nights sitting at home and bonding. It was a sobering moment when the game shut down and to this day, this was the only game I ever looked back at and desperately wished I could play again. The community, gameplay, and just overall feel was vastly different from the rest of the MMO market. Thank you whole heartedly for bringing it back. I'm still in the military, and still playing when I'm in garrison. Besides several grey hairs on my part, it's just like old times.
