Put urself in Faust's shoes for once. yeah, the patch prolly didnt go the way he wanted it to. making 2 of the best fleets go inactive/deleted. but o well. you have to make the best of it. you cant make a game better if there is no change, and it was a big change. I wouldnt feel all that good about what i did, if i worked my butt off and then get my work thrown in my face. i think the only bad things are A) lag..whoda thought right? and B) SY in scen servers. besides that the game has gotten better. it will just take sum getting used to. hes prolly not gonna take it a step backwards, it makes no logical sense. As for me i will stick around. i will sub myself right after i get a job and sum money. if the game dies, I will stay till its last breath.

Forseth, Arch is incapable of any positive human emotions. He can never be anything but negative and rude. Don't worry about it.

Dito!!!
Things are changing and it's good the way it does.
And as Fo|2seth wrote - yes, there are things U have to get used to, but that doesn't mean that the game sucks.
What really sucks are peops saying the game sucks, cuz they don't want to become "familiar" with the new features.

w00t....
And if this game is not dead in 2 or 3 years I might send a resume to you Faustus(well ill nead to learn that lua(sp) programming language first... the only things i know now is BASIC and a bit of C++(+html and a bit of flash)
oh and tanks for the news, the new patch did introduce alot of lag but im shure the dev team can wip us something to correct it and for the PB thing... if I remeber it correcly its was usualy a luth fleet which was abusing alot of ecm forts and rotating rax...
well im going back to play Legends of the Dragoon(my connection is presently giving me hell when it tries to connect to DS... ill try to check if its on my side/isp that causing it.
Well later
[edit] well editted a sentance to make my post look better

I have to disagree with Arch
The patch didnt make the game more boring
But people were thinking it would make it really really really good, which did not happen, therefore all those people who didnt play officially left the game, even if they havent been around for half a year or more

Arch your a twit.
this game isnt in a death throw, its in a ressession before its about to hit it big. the last thing faust needs is the "vet" players complaingin about lag, barkign at newbs, and being unwilling to learn the new stuff the patch had to offer. im sorry to doubt your intelligence, but apparently theres a lack of it from what i can read in your post.

I have to agree with arch.
When i first joined Darkspace everybody was talking about the patch and how things will go better and that it was going to be released soon.
So i started playing DS and loved it, loved it that i subbed for 6 months.
After 6 months the patch was still not released and i told myself to quit and come back when the patch was released.
After another 6 months the patch came and it was great at first (new structures, some modifications to the ships) after 3 nights in the MV I also found the bad sides, losing several ships trough lagg having a lot of trouble to mod them again.
Basically i was dissapointed that the things that i wanted the most where left out of the patch (fighters, platforms and new shipmodels (like the carrier)).
And now i read this update report of faustus "I'm working on the localisation".
I don't think that there are many players are waiting for this. Maybe i'm wrong but we are children, we want NEW TOYS, not a translation (the game is not that hard to understand)
just my 2 cents

The only thing in this patch that isnt doing it for me is the lag, sort that out and I think most would be happy (and maybe some weapons changes)
I have to agree with Arch though, that this patch did weaken kluth a lot with leaving torps as their only good weapon and cloak even more useless

I agree with you... The only one who made the code is Faust and there's only one coder here and its Faust.(ok repeating myself but still). And Faust do not have only DS but he has a famely to support so before Arch or another half-idiot person make comments on the long time to make a patch just remeber that PaleStar is NOT Blizzard... PaleStar only have one programmer, and DS dont have alot of people in the dev team but I find this game better then some games made by a bigger compagny ... that Begins with an M and finish with a $t
