Time for another update....
Yes, I've been extremely busy lately... with kids getting out of school, financial issues (it's expensive to move), and my new job.... it's been hard to find time to work on DS as much as I need and want.
However, I have been getting some work done on Resourcer, plus getting the game ready for localization... although slowly. Things are looking better and better now that things have been settling down.
My highest priority tasks are getting the game ready for localization and making the changes to the resourcer so others can start working on modifications to the game assets.
Concerning the petition .... Several developers already have access to the source code (Chromix, Tragic, and others).... if you would like to join the dev team, email me at rlyle@palestar.com, include a resume if you have one (Anything that will impress me of your coding abilities will help, as I only want people who will not mess things up having access to the source code).
Just so everyone knows, I'm commited to keeping DS alive.... please do not panic

Yay Faustus!
Good to know you're alive
Your posts always seem to boost morale of the community (wonder why... hehe)
Maybe a short, sweet weekly update, just taking a minute or so to post what you've done, or even if you haven't done anything! The community likes hearing from you.

Sorry F ... been there, done that.
Ive read these type of posts for over a year waiting for the last patch and have as much faith in this one as I did 6 months ago.
The GTN leaving was more of a formality than a sign, theyve been dead for better part of a year. Face it, it was sad and I resect Demo for finally puling the plug, but lets be honest.
The last patch that was supposed to breath new life into this game, but did nothing but make more people leave, which made the MV boring, which was the final straw for the last of the Active fleets (PB). And I for one will say that the last patch was exactly what everyone was wanting, but failed to realize what many of us feared, it would bring on the demise of this game. You all knew what was coming, and It had been in beta for months. Now you want another patch to patch the patch .... go figure
Evil came on with a vengence, but lost steam when the lag issue stripped the Kluth of the last thing they had ... Speed and agility. With only torpedoes as the only worth while offensive weapon, and loosing ship after ship getting stuck turning and fly into the path of multiple EADs or AD fire range. All the while reading Dev and Dev ask "What Lag" or "Its not us, its your system", I cant find it play this anymore.
Like many of the great games that have come and gone .... I for one have seen this cycle before, the dying gasp of a great game. Youve done a great job, hopefully made some money and had fun. I look foreward to playing something youve designed in the future, but I cant renew my subscription when I hear the fat lady warming up inthe background.
Until then - Arch
