 | |  |  | |  |  | | | | | | | | Austin, Texas, September 12, 2001 - Palestar, Inc. today announced that their action/strategy massive multi-player title DarkSpace has now registered more than 10,000 players to their Open Beta program which began in mid July.
Richard Lyle, Palestar's President and Lead Programmer, comments 'I am amazed at the level of fan support for DarkSpace. We have been able to detect several errors and game play issues with the assistance of our fan base during the last seven weeks of testing.'
Palestar continues to fine-tune the title as they consider their options for a new publisher for DarkSpace. The Austin-based developer envisions continuing the Beta for at least another few weeks. New interested gamers may still download the client and play DarkSpace over the Internet with thousands of other players for free during the Open Beta. Additionally, players may run their own servers or run from Palestar's as they wish. To play DarkSpace head over to http://www.darkspace.net to download the client through Palestar's many host and partner sites.
'We really appreciate all the support from the DarkSpace players. We hope they will continue to inform us of their thoughts and suggestions to make DarkSpace the best massive multi-player action/strategy game available' Richard Lyle went on to say.
Palestar is still looking to partner with a new publisher for its title. The title is nearly complete for publishing online. All business inquiries should be directed to Palestar at publish@palestar.com.

| | | | | | | | PaleStar news is now seperated from the DarkSpace news. We will post all news concerning PaleStar in this news section now. DarkSpace news can now be found on www.darkspace.net. |

| | | | | | | A major update will occur on monday, ships are being reconfigured so that they will be better balanced and more specific to their task. Weapon configurations are lighter so that the pace of the game will not be quite so fast.
Additionally, ship costs in resources are much higher now. Cruisers will cost 2500 resource points, whereas dreadnaughts will now cost 5000.
The K'Luth will be enabled on monday for one week for balancing purposes, after next week they will be disabled again until release. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | | Moderators have had their ability to play all ships removed in the latest code update. Any servers in which moderators can still choose all ships need to be restarted. |
| | | |
| | | | | | | All prestige has been wiped clean from the database, so everyone can begin again at the same level and help us balance the gameplay as much as possbile.
The way prestige is calculated has also changed, making it more fair to those who engage in combat able to progress in rank at the same rate of engineers, support, and transports. Points are no longer awared based on the rank of the other player, but instead is now based on the type of ship.
Moderators still have full access to all available ships and are expected not to abuse the general population in their dreadnaughts. Please report any abuse to rlyle@palestar.com |

| | | | | | | Thanks to ThreeJay and Feivel for helping put together the german side of www.darkspace.net
|
| | | |
| | | | | | | The day has finally come, prestige will be reset to ZERO for all user accounts on Friday, 8/31/2001.
The reason for the reset is to get everyone back at the same level, since alot of people are such high ranks because of exploits they found in the early open beta. These exploits have been fixed, and we now need to see how long it takes to move up through the ranks playing the game normally so that it can be balanced.
All players have received 50,000 bonus prestige until the reset, so enjoy.
