Star Wars Attack Squadrons has opened up their Beta test through March 18th! This will be a Free to Play Space Flight Sim game, with options to upgrade your ship based on currency earned by playing the game (I'm assuming micro-transactions will be involved with the game at some point also)

So, has anyone tried it out, and was it any good?
Also, I don't know what the NDA is like for the open beta... so maybe read that before posting? :P
Haven't tried it, myself, but its been revealed to be browser-based.
Also, please note that the FAQ clearly states that people outside the UK and North America cannot participate in the closed beta.
I have tried it. Firstly, it's laggy as and cold molasses. From my first time playing it, I found it to be exactly like every other flying shooter. I thought you would be able to choose your own colours for your ship and such, however, it looks as though your ship only changes colour when you buy a brand new ship with new colours and designs. It reminds me of Rogue Squadron for N64 and once again on Gamecube. I LOVED those games...but, they belonged on consoles. As for a computer game, I don't really find it that exciting, but if it was on a console, it would be pretty good. Again, this is only my personal opinion.
I agree with Krandon 8 years and a console ago it would have been pretty good. for a browser type game with a minimal download it's ok. I didn't find it that entertaining but hey i'm just one man. I'd say go give it a whirl if you really want to know.
It is okay, not really addicting though to keep me motivated to continue playing for awhile. It is realistic in terms of a flying game. I think it would be better when a fly-stick controller could be used.
