I remember when i first came here back in October of 2002 this game was still in its infantcy  does anyone remember when they first came to this game and combat was fun? i do, i think of nothing else.....
Now we bring you too 1.483: Combat is almost non-existent, Construction is priorty Number 2. Bombing is priorty number 1 and supply is....well you get the picture. I direct you to the beta forum for this topic Remembering Darkspace on how it was
it is a petition to have combat restored back too 1.480 values just the combat not the bugs 480 had this game used to be fun now its all construction, destruction and piddly combat prestige.
For someone like me this game brought fun back into my life, Combat was easy to get and around the time i had admiral i'd have 1K bombing prestige, 4K Construction, 3K Suppy, 2K planets capped and 25K combat prestige, now its the opposite
20K construction
1.2K Combat
1K suppy
340 Planets capped
5600 Planets damaged
thats me in a nutshell now for someone like say Fluffy bunny? he has 56K bombing prestige, borgie who has 36K bombing pres but im not flamming im just disappointed in how this game went and it brings tears to my eyes on all the forum threads i read on how this game progressed or Regressed and well i wish we had 1.480 combat values back thats just my one complaint and one wish that we had back 1.480 combat
thanx

This is never going to be restored back to 1.480, even if it was glorious.
Sorry this has come up SO many times.

okay you seem so freely to mention borgies 36k bombing but not his 15k construction. also remember this is an RPG... role playing game... and guess what some roles are the 'bad guy' like the bomber whores. they get the blood pumping with anger to want to kill them a million times over so there stats are reduced. but above all remember this is a RPG...

I do miss jumping my station into a crowd of planet hugging uggies and self destructing
Those were the days
I love the upgrades, don't get me wrong. I think the system is much smoother. But lag still exists. And the ranks have dwindled. The last beta post was months ago. The last "Latest News" was in April.
If I had a magic wand I'd give Faustus brand new servers and unlimited bandwidth for free.

Hey Goth, Instead of harrasing people about their Bombing prestige, you can talk about how combat was fun! Exciting, how K'luth ECM forts where insane to bomb. You said you wherent flaming people goth, but it sure seems like it.

and yet we all played it. unlike now, where I just check to see if it has come back or not, ready to hit that sub button, but maybe its not meant to be.

Wtf....Goth used comparatively good grammer, spelling, AND spaced his sentences. Wow.
Anyways, this has come up many times before, as someone said. The reason it can't be reverted is because they completely changed the original code or something? I remember a mod explaining it once.
But yeah, it was a great time back then, and we all know it. We also know that you cannot simply roll-back the patches. Oh well.
And on another note, Crimson seems to have a point. you know, you could just talk about how it used to be a really good game and not mention other's huge bombing pres at all, or how it 'brings tears to your eyes'.
So yeah.

its funny my name gets brought up when ever a bomb whore gets brought up, but this bomb whore can just about anyone in a solo fight and one thing i always stated since my first time being called a bomb whore, 1 get out and defend your space, 2 build better planets. i mean when you see a planet 32 building and 5 def, that planet has a sign on it saying nuke me...
besides that 36k bombing is over 10 months of play, 15k of that in my first month which alot of people will back that up, now when you see me in a bomber im nueting planets back insted of nuking since hell im tired of building 
thats just my 2 cents on this matter
