Hi everyone,
Welcome to the Galactic News! This week we’ve got more fleet combat stats for the Awaken the Dark Galaxy including Hot Zones and Combatant Strength. Even if you’ve not been playing in this galaxy it’s well worth taking a look!

Hi everyone,
Welcome back to the Galactic News. What are the devs working on at the moment? Any change at the top of the Awaken the Dark leaderboards? Read on to find out!
A new patch went out this week. It included fixes for a couple of exploitable bugs. Thanks to those of you that gave us a heads-up on them! If you do come across a sensitive/exploitable bug you can report it in private to us via PM on the forum or email help@outscape.net.

Hi everyone,
Welcome to the Galactic News. And the weekend 🙂
If you didn’t catch it, we pushed a new patch a couple of days ago. It included a performance optimization for players with a lot of exploration history that were experiencing some lag. If you were affected by this, please let us know whether you noticed a difference after updating to the patch, or if you tried the ‘Clear Exploration History’ button we added.
Another patch should be along soon! We’re not actively working on any new features right now, the focus is still on fixing bugs – including the exploits that we’re aware of (e.g. fleets larger than the flagship should be able to support).

Hi everyone,
Welcome to this week’s Galactic News. This week we’re going to take a look at some of the active alliances in the Awaken the Dark galaxy, as well as the usual review of the top of the leaderboards. But first, a word from the devs…
The v120 patch will be released early next week – probably on Tuesday.
The focus of this patch has been game client optimization (particularly for games with a massive amount of exploration history following the speed changes to the Awaken the Dark galaxy).
There are a few bug fixes included. We’re still looking into the bug reports we’ve received related to minefields. If we can make enough progress on that then there should be minefield fixes in there too.
This week we’ve asked you to list Your Top 5 Outscape Wants and Priority Bugs. Thanks to those of you that have already posted, your contributions help us to prioritize tasks. Please check those threads out if you haven’t already, thanks 🙂

Hi everyone,
Welcome to this week’s Galactic News. We hope you’ve had a great week and are enjoying the weekend 🙂
We want to make the Galactic News better – but we need your help!
Each week you can send us your news. For example, what were the main themes discussed that week? Does your alliance have anything they want to share with the rest of the galaxy? Got a relevant Outscape meme we should share?
You can PM it to me or email it to news@outscape.net.
Here’s a contribution from one of the devs:
No. The devs don’t spend all day sitting around thinking up memes 🙂
They spend it making Outscape better!

Hi everyone,
Welcome to this week’s Galactic News 🙂
Before we take a look at how the Awaken the Dark galaxy is doing at the end of week two, let’s see what else has been going on and what’s to come next week.
Have you experienced rageful fury while playing Outscape? If yes, you’ve probably been involved in a protracted, soul-destroying ‘minefield war’ with another player.
But good news! Part 1 of those changes we proposed a few weeks ago – that we believe will drastically improve things – are finally ready to go and will be in the next patch…

Hi everyone,
Last Sunday the new faster Awakening of the Dark galaxy launched with a bang!
Have you played in the new galaxy yet? Let us know what you think on the forum after you have. We’ve seen some fantastic feedback already from players that are enjoying the new game mode. Why not try it and see for yourself?
A massive new patch was also released alongside the new galaxy, and this week the devs have already pushed out two more patches to address a couple of issues that came up after adding all that new content.
Let’s see how things stand after the first week of the new ‘Awaken the Dark’ galaxy…

Hi everyone,
The new faster ‘Awakening of the Dark’ galaxy is NOW OPEN and ready for you to play!
And the v116 Alliances patch has also been released – a huge event in its own right!
The new ‘Awakening of the Dark’ galaxy is unlike any galaxy we’ve launched before. And you can join it from the game lobby right now.
You can experience in a couple of days what takes weeks in the other galaxies (e.g. ‘Main’ and ‘Skirmish’).
It’s perfect for those of you that prefer an all-action pace. And if you’re at home with the more casual pace of the other galaxies, it’s somewhere to try out another civ or experiment with a new strategy. We recommend all new players try the ‘Awakening of the Dark’ galaxy before the ‘Main 2’ galaxy.
