Darkspace: Gameplay and history

***Game is now 100% FREE! ***

This is NOT my video. I did not make it although I participated in it. I'm just hosting it here for all to see. This is a very fun game as you will see by the ingame footage. Check out the game at www.darkspace.net

I also won't allow derogatory comments. No name calling or anything like that. Keep it clean and respectful no matter your opinion and I'll probably approve your comment.

If this game gets a good kick in the ass, as in a good re-make and is published properly will be a very popular MMO no doubt.Sadly, the player base is kind of small..

[mrsparkle001]

@theheadhunter502 It's old, it's stagnant, it's competing with more and more F2P games every year, and it's servers cannot handle the kind of gameplay the game requires.

I'm currently enjoying Star Trek Online myself. Darkspace is always there but I find myself wanting to play it less and less after the changes to planet defense and capturing. I find this version boring.

This game is full of stuck up power mad staff. The staff will mock anyone who needs assistance. Their first and only line of defence is to BAN anyone, their is no form of discussion or form of communication available. This game is dated it shows. There has been no improvements to change the style of game play or introduce a viable option when the servers are empty, which occurs for about 20 hours of any given day. It will be a distant memory for anyone who plays the game.

@danleeca I do hear you on that. The staff are unprofessional and one in particular is particularly bad at it. But that's what you get with volunteers. I do wish Faustus demanded more professionalism from them but we don't pay anything for the game so we can't expect much either.

Something is seriously broken right now anyway. I'm getting query errors with the website and invalid username when trying to log in. Somebody messed something up pretty bad, or their hardware is finally failing.

WoW's not even worth paying for...super surprised there's so many people playing it.

Combat is one of the things DS doesn't share at all with EVE. In DS you're in direct control of your ship at all times, whereas EVE is much more like RTS combat.

nostalgia. I feel like making better version of darkspace. Now that I can.. Hmmm. Either way hello to admbito (you suicidal fuck), banshee (pro) and flipper (inspiration). Good times. And also starfleet, hope you are still around asshole :) Lets not forget the dawg, best wing man I ever had. And of course RIP R33.

@cmaylone3 Technically, I'm trolling a 22 minute old post now.

@cmaylone3 Somebody with an IQ over 20 would have realised I only read your comment recently.

[Shodex4]

Looks sweet, I'm a veteran space sim player and this looks like it will tickle my multiplayer fancies.

@cmaylone3 You have fun with that then, this game requires intelligence. So we don't want idiots like you clouding up the game's community.
