Casual, Moderate or Hardcore?

Looney Toon · May 31, 2015

After reading posts relating to Power Play there seems to be a concern that people with more time to play will reap the rewards leaving the casual or moderate gamer nothing to work for within Power Play. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

This leave me with the question, what would type of player are you?

Casual - up to 10 hours per week
Moderate - up to 20 hours per week
Hardcore - over 20 hrs per week

I'd add a poll but don't seem to have the option to add one

Before last 2 weeks hardcore. Last 2 weeks and this week = casual. (Masters exams

)
Although I did recently notice im spending more time on the forums than I am in the game

You should add in a Zelot option for those over 40 hours a week. haha.

Casual to hardcore. It depends on my time. 0 to over 20 hours a week.

Not played since just before Christmas, I think. Played maybe 20 hours on Beta 1.3. Typically, maybe one 15 hour block in a month, I guess (hard to compare against other games where there is a clear storyline which focuses me more). Not feeling there is much sense in playing for just an hour or so makes for a big barrier to logging on.

I vary. With 3 active kids and work, I'm happy just to log on. Some days it's just 1 or 2 trade runs, others it's a pew-pew moment. My combat cow is currently parked in space.

Depends veery much on available time and motivation. I have a job (luckily, else I couldn't afford PC or game), that limits time. Boredom occasionally kills motivation. And there's other games. The ease by which you can lose all you gained with zeal, has considerably lessend said zeal fo me.

Hardcore ! when possible

Commander Starcloak · May 31, 2015

Super Hardcore. Regularly upwards of 50 hours per week.

Lazy… A couple of hours here and there

Something under casual, maybe 1-2hrs per week. Some weeks a little more, some weeks a little less. CG's are of no use to me tbh so was hoping for something different from PP, but unfortunately...

I'm amazed that 10hrs a week playing a computer game could be regarded as casual, I must be very old.

Your reply is more accurate than my question lol

Depends on how many client projects I have. I vary from 'do you even play this game?' - 0 hours a week to 'Seriously Sean you should go outside' - 70 hours a week depending on what my clients require of me.

Currently Casual.
Make this a sandbox game instead of just an open world game I'll become hardcore.

Variable casual-moderate. In a "normal" week, perhaps an hour a day average, maybe a bit more on the weekends is possible. But if I've trips away (business or pleasure) then that isn't happening.
