"» How does Earthrise’s offline advancement work?
In addition to their skills and abilities gained from adventuring, battling, and crafting, characters can take a "career" that will provide them with cash and other perks. Characters will advance in their career whenever they are offline. You can think of your character's career as their "day job": It's how they make money when they aren't killing mutants or battling in the Outer Territories or experimenting with lost technology. Some of the careers in the game include Holo Artist, Electro Sampler and Zero-T operator"It's just a way to earn cash and "other perks" it doesn't actually advance your character's skills or attributes.
It sounds like their version of crafting aka manufacturing in EvE. Those careers require skills and if those skills progress offline then that's bullshit. Earning income is a big part of some MMOGs like EvE and the only thing you should be able to do offline is set up a merchant or sell wares, but not advance your crafting or manufacturing careers.

- Characters progress while offline
This is a bad move for Earthrise.
This was one of the things I hated about EvE and why I don't play it anymore. All progression should be earned ingame while active, not by logging in once a week to change skills.

- If you had a gun to your head and had to pick one of these F2P Cash shop grind fests to play for the entire year of 2009!
I would choose to pull the trigger. All supposedly Free to play games suck.

Would you rather see a game release pushed back a year or have the game release with a few bugs that will be fixed?
