Honestly, that is what hurt the experience more than anything, not having the capacity to support an event that is meant to show off what your game can do and hopefully entice new players (assuming that's what the free fly events are for) is just going to leave a bad impression on people just checking out the game. I tried several times over a span of 3-4 days to get some footing, but found myself just having to Alt+F4 in most cases.

If the servers actually worked, I could have looked up a video or 2, tried out a few free ships (assuming a new player can find the event which is an entirely different issue), etc. But all I'm left with is no desire to even buy a starter pack.
