after playing version 1.5 for about a week now,i can say the devs should be proud of the product they have created. darkspace is now a new game with new challenges, but it seems i am in a minority about how great this game has become. I now hear more whinning and crying about 1.5 than i did about 1.483, i think the vets should be ashamed of them selfs with their attitude towards the new darkspace, stop being so selfish. I think Faustus did go in the wrong direction in one aspect, he should be catering to new players and make the game more newb friendly and forget about trying to make ungrateful vets happy

Sorry to disappoint you but most us of arent whining. The 1.5 is at alpha stage. Means need to be improved.There is still some bug and still things to do. Nobody says Faustus did a bad job.He did a great job. But in public forum (i dont know if he reads those ) he doesnt answer our petitions.All we get some admins,mods,dev team members telling us use "better tactics" or "i am uber thats why i owned you". If 1 ead hulls my nest in 10 seconds and i cant hull him from 150 gu away, there is something wrong. Any healty person would consider this as a problem. We , vets, want this game to become better, faster , more balanced. We have to talk now or we wont be able to change anything after the 1.5 is complete. If Dev team is upset about comments and if Dev team thinks we are completely wrong , I ,personally,will rest my case, wont say anything about any balance issue and apogolize publicly for being a pain in the ass.

The dev's and Faustus included created 1.500, despite that Faustus did most of the coding, the rest created content, faction balance and other features. if you think the balance is wrong than fight it out with them.
I think Faustus just won't go in on the subject because he has got his dev team to work on it, and i think he is already busy enough keeping him self fed (work) and expanding the DS code.
And yes i may be wrong about this all either. but atleast you said it your self:Quote:

I was under the impression that we loved 1.500... those of us who go back to pre-1.483, at least.

I like what I've seen of 1.5 so far, and I'm about as veteran as they come.
Of course, I'd really need to resub and start playing regularly to say for certain...

xTx. I would watch what you say mate.
it is US vets that know what can be improved to make this game better for everyone.
not some new guy that comes along an goes "ZOMGBBQ!LOL GIZ US INSTANT KILL OR THIS GAME SUCKS LOLOLOL! I NEVER EVEN SUBBED BEFORE SO MY WORD SHOULD COUNT!"
there is a bad group in every crowd. so dont just blame us vets kk?
I am very pleased with this patch also, just like ele and a few others that have replied here.
this is, ALHPA stage after all.

1.500 is the step in the right direction and balancing issues can be taken care of now, and i fact are already.
What you must understand though: before balance changes comes playtesting.
So how about playing 1.500 for a while, hopefully with an increasing playerbase.

1.5? Big thumbs-up from me, although I think some people might need to adapt the the new battlefield.
Stop jumping out all the time! You're SUPPOSED to get hulled!

I have no opinion of 1.5 yet since I only ever played it once and that was in a Talon on release day. I think I will resub this week or next and give it a few days of dedicated play, so long as the servers are decently populated.
My only complaint, ever, about DS has been the lack of players. I really don't care much about what version, occasional lag, etc... but it is hard to enjoy a pvp combat oriented game with 4 people in the MV. Hopefully 1.5 will draw a few new people in, or some old timers back to the fold.
If we ever see server population like back in the free two week trial days, 90+ in the MV, then I am in trouble because I would likely become DS obsessed again.
