Gamecloud - Beyond the next update what other improvements and additions do you plan to make for Darkspace in the future?
Richard Lyle - Space platforms will be in the next version for certain... which will allow players to build space-based structures for supply and defense. Additionally, I'm working on some major engine improvements and porting the game and server backend over to some other platforms. |

| | | | | | | | Phase 2 of the beta stress test will occur this weekend. You can download the beta version of DarkSpace from the downloads section if you would like to participate. This will likely be the last stress test before we release the new version. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | Just a note to check the Staff Announcements forum, as Palestar's policy on providing compensation for lost ships has been changed slightly and posted for clarification. You can find the post here.
The most important change to note is that the burden of proof has been raised, so that compensation requests should include either screenshots or testimonies from other players. See the policy for details. |

| | | | | | | Thats right, starting this weekend, Friday 22nd, 2005 at 8pm CST, we will begin Phase 1 of the stress test cycle to prepare 1.483 for release.
This is the moment many of you have been waiting for. Come see some of the new features and help us squash any little bugs (K'luth too) so we can finally move 1.483 from Beta to Release!

| | | | | | | | The Beta server has been restored to operation and is back online... |
| | | |
| | | | | | | Due to a faulty power supply beta is currently down. We are working to fix it ASAP, it should be back up and running within 24 hours.
UPDATE: A replacement power supply is being difficult to find. The server should be back up and running late afternoon on 4/16. |
