Dropship is a game that had numerous showings at several events, from E3 to ECTS and back to E3. The improvements in every version were immediately obvious, and it was apparent that development was progressing nicely.
However, the game's complexity didn't really allow for a "quick go" at the trade shows, because the controls alone are so complex that you can't learn how to play the game in ten minutes. You need time, and it's worth it.
The story of Dropship might leave a bad taste in your mouth because a lot of the fictional conflicts in the game are very much in tune with the current political climate, even though the story is set 50 years in the future.
