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.

Looks like the author of Space Merchants is working on a MMO as well using the Space Merchants universe. It looks like SMO is going to support DirectX 9. And will a few professions and you will be able to fight, trade, mine, manufacture and build. There will be two playable races at this point terrestrial and extraterrestrial.
There is mention of a open beta coming in January of 2010 so keep an eye out for this one. No mention if this is a F2P or P2P MMO yet.

Thanks DualHead for the clarification. Looking forward to taking SMO out for a spin, I know it hasn't been talked about yet but what will be the eventual cost for SMO either per month or one time purchase?
Hello, payment under Space Merchants Online game will be clarify later.
Soon as I see Space Merchants Online mature into beta I will create an area just for SMO on SSC for people to discuss the game. Do you know when the FAQ or extra info will be available on the website or if I can do a Q&A with some developers on the SMO project?
About FAQ - our webmaster fill in all information about game features on the web with running game development
All links on the webpage link back to the main page. Couldn't find a FAQ anywhere?
Hello again, FAQ will be complete later.
I wonder if Space Merchants Online is still on track to have a open beta start in April? I was on there website http://www.space-online.sk and found some pics of the beta phase that is in progress. The game is looking good. Didn't really have time to translate the page to see what i could find out though.
Was looking through the FAQ here: http://space-online.sk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=32
And it says we might be seeing this real soon... Jun-Aug time frame. From the screenshots it looks great and if I read the FAQ right this will be F2P and in all scene it is a sequel to Space Merchants.
Once I have a good time frame for this game going live in English I will make a forum to dedicate to this game as well.
