Stephen, plz dont put us of any longer. You talk about new events and missions. We dont care about that as long as the really needed updates are not in place. The game is seriously suffering from details that could be fixed in a heartbeat.
I wont even get started on what should be changed knowin there will be no reply anyway.

Hey, that is an original excuse neglecting the gameplay, even better than the "my dog ate my homework..." excuse.
Somehow it may be an indication, that some corrections for the gameplay is needed, if the mineral market on rt is empty, and every second thread in the forum is about how to change race atributes to make the game more balanced. Or is it just me?

99+ day(s) ago | i predict that he will next blame his baby... his kid`s what, like a year old now at least right... which means his kid is walking. so the next excuse will be like - my son came over and unplugged the computer, which crashed the hard drive, because everyone knows you`re not just supposed to turn off the computer, you have to shut it down properly... |

99+ day(s) ago | Unless he meant actual monkey`s in which case they ae what they are. If a monkey can fly a spaceship i`m sue they can help in the update; However, i thought monkeys ate bannanas. Peanuts should be only given to elephants who never forget thus really good in programing but quite clumsy |

99+ day(s) ago | "... like they say you`ll get monkeys if you pay peanuts."
Wow, if I worked there I would be insulted and asking for a raise. nah, if getting paid peanuts wasn`t bad enough, the insult would certainly push me out the door.
Interesting way of retaining people... |
Cutter
99+ day(s) ago | of course, Stephen will be found innocent, but the two servers on the racks next to him will not.. so no more servers and no more update! |
Cutter
99+ day(s) ago | My Prediction:
Stephen`s servers are confiscated by the local governrment in an anti terrorism/anti piracy police action.
hehheh, those gordos are as good as mine!! |
Havock
99+ day(s) ago | This is my prediction for the next excuse:
Your massive server usage from deleting more than one planet at a time was so massive and taxing on my massivley overtaxed servers that it caught them on fire and I threw them in the bath tub to put them out. |
UberPansy
99+ day(s) ago | You know... I have an idea. Stephen should go around collecting pledges from all Spacefed players (a pledge to donate or get a paid). In exchange he would use the money to complete an update by a set date. If he failed, all players would get their money back.
Simple yet brilliant =P |

99+ day(s) ago | Good points Smiley.
I recruited 8 players to this game....6 of which are still here all be it on a slower server...4 of the 8 are like me and would like to go paid but see no point when no effort is being put into this game.....as said before...the only effort is being put in by G`S/Admin, and the players themsekves!
Im sure if he could Stephen would sell the game and i wish i had the money to buy it....This really is a gold mine waiting to explode!
SHOW US SOME RESPECT STEPHEN!!!! |
AlphaRED
99+ day(s) ago | Well I have two possible predictions...
1. Aliens take land and take the hard-drive travelling light-years just to get the update :p
2. The dog eats it :p |

99+ day(s) ago | Well Stephen, I have to admit that it is obvious that you have lost interest for the game. You got too much other things to think on and we are just your milk-cow that gives you additional cash to pay your bills.
Sure, lots of people went angry in the last update - but loads of us liked it too. It was too much bugs in the beginning and too much bad admins doing too much stuff they shouldnt (like suspending most of the good players for using loopholes made in the update etc.). I am sure you got more people paying after the first update - even as some players left the game too. Static players hates update, but static players is boring - they dont attract new players. GC got mainly static players left now.
Give us an update and I am sure it will be a lot of craying in the forum and lots of people will leave the game (even vets). Other will have to adapt and this phase with new learning and challenges is fun and will attract people - even those complaining a lot of temperarily losses. When we are having fun we will pay - and we will get friends to start playing.
I think I have recruited 15-20 players myself to the game, but most of these have left again due to boredom. I am not telling friends to join now - as the game is dead and boring. We have to get some changes or more people will stop paying - and leave the game.
I dont have to be very good in math to know that your are earning a lot on spacefed. I guess you got another job too, as it doesnt seem like you care much about spacefed? Isnt it worth using a month of paid and donated stuff - to pay some guys doing a serious efford on improving spacefed? Sure, you got bills as everyone else - but investments can be very rewarding.
I am working with making businesses more effective, and I know that the worst thing you can do is to avoid making changes - even as they can be expensive and lots of people hates changes.
So, I didnt liked you "future plans for GC" - it gave me nothing at all. |

99+ day(s) ago | longer wait=less paids=more monkeys |
Cheradenine
99+ day(s) ago | Why is he talking about content. No one asked for more content. We want a little bit of balancing and a few bug fixes. That is all.
Listen to your customers for crying out loud. |
SnakeS
99+ day(s) ago | still no update in sight .... |
KILLA
99+ day(s) ago | BOOOM! goes GC |
DarckKnight
99+ day(s) ago | well stephen posts those news from time to time to keep us all quiet and playing for a nother month or so =P
again we only need tweaks, especially nerfing the virals >.> |
AlphaCentauri
99+ day(s) ago | allright guys, the next person that successfully predicts what stephen`s excuse for not updating gc will get 100 gordos from me...
my prediction is a gang of highly trained ninjas are going to attack stephen as he is walking down the street and steal the hard drive that contains the mysterious update from his left pocket; but to stephen`s rescue batman beats up all the ninjas, however, it was too late because the hard drive was destroyed in the battle
*note: no actual gordos will be given out |
PsychoBilly
99+ day(s) ago | Scuse me....just read my post and missed a few words on my rant....should of read--------->
I have sat and debated out going paid for 3mths now, but why should i when no effort is being put into the game apart from what the Guides/Admin and moreso the players themselves PUT INTO THIS GAME.
Stephen....u have a gold mine in your hands....u have people who r willing to put money in your hands...open your eyes and give us some respect...we spend hours at a time on YOUR GAME. People design websites for YOUR GAME.
Give us a break....and show us some respect.
