 | |  |  | |  |  | | | | | | | | Version 1.3 will go online on Monday, January 14th to allow for more testing of the new trading code on the beta testing servers. Almost all the features have been completed, with the exception of the interface for planetary management which will be done tomorrow.
Additionally, a prestige gain bug has been fixed in 1.3 which is keeping demo players from gaining prestige on ladder servers.

| | | | | | | Austin, Texas, January 10th, 2002. Palestar Inc. and Playnet Inc. announced Thursday that a free trial for the massively multiplayer online game DarkSpace will begin January 11th, 12:00CST and run until January 18th, 12:00CST. During the free trial, ALL DarkSpace account holders will be able to play with no limitations, and will have the ability to gain prestige, rank, and join all available servers.
“We believe those who have not subscribed or played the demo version will be blown away once they have the opportunity to play the full version of our game,” commented Richard “Faustus” Lyle, Palestar’s President and Lead Programmer.
Additionally, all new subscriptions after January 18th will receive a 7-day free trial before the first charge occurs. During this free trial period, players will be able to experience the full game and cancel their subscription before the end of the 7 days.
DarkSpace can be downloaded from www.darkspace.net.

| | | | | | | | Respawn UK has been so kind as to post an interview online, discussing DarkSpace. Click Here to read the interview... |

| | | | | | | Due to the rough start after going pay-to-play for DarkSpace, we have gained fewer subscribers than we anticipated.
We ask that everyone who can; spread the word about this game and help us get enough subscribers so that we can continue development. PaleStar is a very small company, and doesn’t have available the resources some larger game makers have, such as a marketing department and money. This means, we have to rely on you 'The Players' to spread the word about our little game.

| | | | | | | If you want to help test new code, simply click select the 'DarkSpace - BETA' lobby from the 'Lobby' button at the top of GameCQ. All players will be allowed to play, however server space will be limited and demo players will still have the same restrictions.
We anticipate having a new code update to be beta tested later today or early next week. If you decide you would like to beta test the new code, then you'll get to see what new features are being added before everyone else; however this will mean you'll get to do more downloading so it's not recommended for 56k modem users.
