Oh I dunno, I like the "outlaw"thing, and newb protection. But it sould be extended until you completed a specific mission and when you complete it,you have the option to continue playing sandbox or get wrecked. I mean, i'm basically here only because I like writing with some people, not because of the game. The game in itself sucks. I am still waiting for the empire building part, I have lost all hope of a 3D battle.
