Before I get any further though, I want to talk about the team working on this thing. These guys are some of the most dedicated and talented guys I’ve ever worked with. They’re putting in re-dumb-donkulious hours right now (This includes Faustus) as we make the final push towards Alpha. The effort is really paying off too, the game is really starting to look and play great. Many times as I’m playing through our current build preparing feedback, looking for issues, or generally doing any of the other hundred things I do in the game while not actually “playing” it, I find myself slipping into “gamer” mode, simply enjoying the experience. This team is busting everything they got, but it’s really making a difference. I feel this is one of the best games we’ve ever made.

Faustus has to work hard for that money because this game doesn't produce any income for him.

not really interested in what F is working on at work,DS is what i play,and the lack of info is getting decidedly worse,if he hasnt time to work on DS he should come right out and say so and stop pussy footing around the subject,at least we would know where we stand. dont you think thats fair request??

I think I agree with Topbum.
And in any case, IMO, I think the latest patches since I came made the game worse. We had more players in 1.481 than now, and in 1.481, there were no real balance issues, at least from my perspective...I don't recall any rants about imbalance, anyways.
Anyways, the recent patches, one which made flux the topic of complaining, and then the patch which changed the upgrade system, and credits, which, IMO, is completely useless, as now people will simply always upgrade all their equipment to the highest level, first chance they get, (We do have 5 mil coupons, anyways), and for the newbies, they get NEGATIVE credits when a ship is spawned, giving a MAJOR disadvantage. That, plus the Destroyers which are much harder to kill than you'd think, and the crazily overpowered Missile Dreadnaughts, plus the increased lag compared to 1.481, PLUS the fact that midshipmen are not allowed engineers anymore.....really...blunted my interest in the game, and I think many other people's. Still, I'll stay here till the end, which I hope doesn't come for a while. But IMO, this current patch needs a lot of work, and fast.

OK, update...
I just moved back to Austin, TX about 7 days ago...
I took a position as lead programmer with a new company in town called KingsIsle entertainment. We're still unpacking at the house.
I will be back to working on DS this coming weekend.
