Star quest online, found here: www.castlethornsoftware.com
is a MMORPG that includes various interesting features that makes it stand out from the big company titles.
- Choose from many occupations; Fleet, Bountyhunter, Pirate, Citizen.
- A Continuous universe that is NOT zoned like many other games. Everything exists in the same space.
- Real star location data and planets generated via a mathamatical algorithm.
- You control a character, and control things such as ships via a number consoles.
- Multiple crewed ships. Work with other players in your crew to operate your ship as effeciently as possible
- Beam down and explore planets and stations, even attempt to raid someone elses ship!
- Fabrication skill that lets you make a number of differnt items such as weapons, clothing, starship systems.
- Very little level grinding, Perhaps a little bit of work to get marksmanship and fabrication skills up.
- Buy your own house and buy furniture for it, even decorate the interior of your ship.
- Purchase various types of space stations and tow them to the system you want.
- Puchase a franchise such as one for shopmart or medical equipment and place it on your base.
- Start your own colonies that need to be supplied wich various resources. Even trade with other peoples colonys.
- Furniture items are interactive, you can buy a food replicator, a locker, a trashcan. and most have a use.
- Lots of hidden easter eggs, such as new alien races and ancient structures on far away worlds.
- Much MUCH more than I cant think of at the moment. Ill add to the list as it comes to me.
Right now graphics are realllly lacking, and theres still some bugs, but this isnt a big time company, and they cant dish out millions for uber graphics. Hell, they need donations just to keep the servers going! Right now there working more on putting in new features and less on fixing bugs with them, but it will be done eventually
I thought you guys might like this game, Theres alot of RP in it.
Joining the forum on here is VITAL if you wish to really have any sort of fun and learn the game. Many noobs quit having only seen 1% of the game because they couldnt find out how to get off of there home planet.
Check it out guys, its a pretty unique game, lots to do, but you need to make contacts, or its gonna suck.

IF you joined up a few weeks ago you would be able to play for the rest of your life.
I dont know why they changed it, The game is far from done...
Now its 7 somthing dollars a month.
They may have done this so they dont rely on just the few people that where offering them donations.
