Blimey, was just going through some old DarkSpace emails and found this dated 21/12/2001! Certainly takes me back...
"Many months of beta testing have finally come to an end...
Playnet Inc. and Palestar Inc. are announcing that DarkSpace, their massively multiplayer online game, is now in pay-for-play and available at www.playnet.com and www.darkspace.net.
DarkSpace is available starting December 21st for a $9.99 monthly subscription. The DarkSpace client is a FREE download and offers both a tutorial and a demo mode to try DarkSpace in a limited form.
DarkSpace takes place in a tumultuous universe of political infighting, economic sanctions and diplomatic posturing. All of the major factions have definite hostility towards one another, but a few splinter outposts are staying neutral, at least initially, to determine their best interest. In the midst of turmoil and civil unrest, players start as an ensign, piloting smaller craft and will eventually work their way up to a grand admiral controlling a capital ship and plotting maneuvers in one of the three initial factions.
Hundreds of players can join together online in a fast paced struggle for mankind's destiny. Individual mission goals will vary and successful completion of objectives will alter the galaxy toward that faction's favor. The galaxy can be altered directly by concerted player effort. By cooperation within a faction or group, players will achieve scenario objectives and push back the rival factions. Random events are possible and will definitely require player cooperation to save the chosen faction from obliteration."
