can,t seem to log on , no servers online. it's not entirely surprising though if they finally shut it down cause me , troy, mousey, toni and maybe 3 other players aren't exactly enough of a player base to support this game. we're more like the breakfast club than an mmo (unless you replace the massive with a minimum) . it's too bad though, never did quite make it to chief marshal. (maybe i shoulda concentrated on having 1 marshal account instead of 2 (thats right , YBnormal is also me.) The reason for the second account? when i joined pitch black , i made a promise that i would always be kluth, and so the need for a second account arose in case i wanted to go back to icc (which is where i started) or if i wanted to try ugto. funny thing is though, this game had all the makings of a great online game when i started. epic battles , interesting metaverse, some in depth gaming details for engineering the planets , but for some reason i have yet to fathom, the developers , in their attempts to equalize the factions and maybe make the planets more easy to cap started to nerf the very elements that did make the game so very interesting. here's some examples of where i think things went in the wrong direction. dico's!!what was wrong with dico's? Yes i died many times caught in a dico field . so what? thats what made it interesting. whenever i was caught in one, my heart would pound , my palms would be sweaty , that was part of the excitement!! it made capping planets far more difficult and exciting as well. nowadays, you can configure any planet the way you want , i'll show up with my stealthed cruciform , and in 1 sweep , max 2 if ai ships are pding my bombs i'll knock out the power or food supply, bomb the troops, drop the troops im carrying and return with my engie or capital ship to rebuild , rinse and repeat , it's booooring. instead of nerfing faction traits such as cloaking or shields, why not instead give whoever is in the minority faction some sort of advantage. for example i,m outnumbered by uggies 10 to 1 and icc 3 to 1 , no matter my rank , i get to order all my ai around , icc gets to order only lower ranking ai and uggies have no control at all on their ai. it's not perfect but it certainly would help the sting of being heavily outgunned by other factions . planetary pd ? does it even work? iv never seen a single 1 of my bombs being pded by a planet no matter how much def it has. if any 1 else has any suggestions pls feel free to post along with me .hopefully, if this game survives, the devs will pay heed. i will say this for this game , if you were to tweek some of the earlier versions just right , i think you could have a recipe for success.

i dont bother posting whats wrong and not. If they`d care about this game they would make something interesting , btw its more then a year or two since theres nothing developed so... Each pack they released more people left the game ! Imo 1.67 was the best patch ever!

Rollback to 1.5xx or 1.6, fix bugs one at a time and make other adjustments in small increments.

The only way to save Darkspace is by finally fullfilling the prophecy.
It is time.

Are you saying that you are happy with the current state of the game?
I laugh at people that think this version is even playable. Pathetic

Moving the game backwards won't also bring back the player count you know? That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works.
