New Server: Neptune II
The Perseus Hive wins eliminating all opposition... New five faction server now online!
A new five faction server is now online, after a Hive domination victory on the Mercury II server. Initially, Sol and Ma'Alaketh looked to be winning, taking on all sides and destroying the Pirates' homeworld, but eventually the Hive race grew more dominant over time. The Perseus Hive, though weak at start, can become hard to defeat in a long run server, as they continue to grow stronger if left to their endless consumption.
The final top scores for Mercury II below:
Pohckrop with a new all time high first place record score this time, achieving the 'Ascendant' rank 11 with the Hive Queen. Him along with the other top players get anywhere between 500-2000 bonus credits to use for the next server.ːsteamhappyː
New Ma'Alaketh Avatars
The Ma'Alaketh now have updated avatars, more representing their character design and unique bridge interiors. Work is being done to update the Ma'Alaketh storyline as well.
Hive 'Knockout' Bug Fix
The annoying Hive 'Knockout' bug, which basically triggered a hive ship to stall its turn (run down the countdown timer wasting time) has been fixed. So when a hive ship is low on mind, or knocked out, it will no longer run down the timer. This also carries over to the rare moments where a Genari ship engine is low, and the AI controlled variant would stall the turn the same way.ːsteamthumbsupː
