To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Hello Folks
I thought I would create a thread to mark the passing of Conquest 2 - The Vyrium Uprising which was meant to be a follow up to Conquest Frontier Wars. 🙁
Its devs did not reach their Kickstarter funding target and have now closed development. Look here for details http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/186 ... fans-unite
This could have been a great game, what a shame. 🙁
Still, perhaps the game might yet be picked up by one of the big games companies? It would be a shame indeed for all the work put into it so far, to go to waste.
The devs didn't even break 10% funding which is in my mind a sign of not really planning before doing a kickstarter. After reading some of the comments I would have to agree that a release of CFW on GOG would have been great for the publicity and of course some type of in-game footage demo to show-off the early alpha. Yeah $600k is a bit much to ask for a game if you don't have any named famous devs or IP on your side to help it along.
I hope they keep it alive as a side project and redo the kickstarter when the game is alpha ready.
I don't think Kickstart is the gold mine every one seem to think it is and with the high amounts which are being asked for there probably going to be a few more causalities.
