New player here.  My $.02.  Because of the new premium packages I am now going to focus my full attention on Perpetuum.  I beta tested this game back in the day but never committed to it.  I went to go play with steve.  Steve became a job and not much fun.  Things changed with Steve and I became bitter with it.  So forward a few years later I see the sale for Perpetuum.  I get it and see that the population is really low and full of giant EP vets.  I think why would I spend years to get up to the point where I can have fun in the good mechs and not get steam rolled by the vets?  I have a high skill point toon with steve.  But then I meet Ville, who tells me about the new packs.  I decide to go buy the dlc packs and bam!  Steve is history.  In one hour I was back to having fun again and able to play along with new friends all because of the new dlc packs.  I have a ton to learn but here's the point.  I want to learn and play this game now and I feel I am now able to.  So thank you.
