As there's a resurgence in popularity in this game (albeit minor) so I've reinstated it to 'live'.
There's a few of us which are playing this regularly again and we welcome anyone else who fancies dusting off their copies and having another go :)
So, have they fixed anything or is it still a 1000 Colonial pilots to every Cylon?
Oldie is really the man for this as he knows all about it. I'm still working out how to fly again :)
Seriously though, it seems to be a lot more balanced and certainly not as bad as it used to be. There's still bugs etc but it's fun revisiting it as it certainly offers a slower pace of gaming.....

Yeah ive been back on this the last couple of nights, its pulling me in again bit by bit

Still unbalanced but not ridiculously so. We Cylons are still the underdogs but I quite like that.
Still the same server then?
awwwwwwwwwwww yes :)
Was back on Wednesday night with Oldie for some Op Run Goodness. Like Penfold I'm trying to remember all the various buttons and what ship does what...... Nexus, Plexus, Hexus, Dexus.... ?????
Last question for now but what was the server name we played on. For some reason I can't find my old characters and wonder if I am looking on the wrong servers.

We are on Virgon.
I have logged back into the game and for some strange reason my character has been removed. Am lothed to have to start again from 1 when I got to 30+. Anyone else had this issue or got advice how to fix it?
You're definitely on Virgon right?
If so BP may have deleted it. They do say that you should log in every three months. However I doubt they would delete an account especially if you had ever bought some cubits.
I raised a ticket to find out what the situation is and got a reply saying if the account is not accessed in a 4 week period then all characters and account is deleted and can not be recovered regardless if you brought cubits or stuff before.
Due to this reason I very much doubt I will come back to BSG due to the fact I can't be bothered to level from 1 again. Anyone else who has not accessed there account recently will be in the same situation or log in quickly and then again once a month to keep your characters going.
Am really disappointed with this and feel it is a really bad side to the game that the company just delete the characters with out even sending a reminding mail out warning that this will happen. I have raised my displeasure with them and indicated that they stand to lose gamers from our community as I would guess am not the only one with this issue.
how odd. I've not been on there for probably three months, maybe even longer. I can't remember when!
I've just logged in now and everything is as before. My character is untouched.

Yeah, that really sucks big time. Shame.....
Let us know how you get on with them - perhaps it's worth chatting to Lib and see if he'll let you play with his big BSG toys ?
mine works after not logging in since the everybody kept killing oldie and me night in early march

Same with me I was inactive for around 2 months and still have all my stuff, 4 weeks is a rather short period to start deleting accounts
How very bizarre, I only logged in a handfull of times in the 1st place as it was - got to level 6 maybe? & when I went on the other day my account was still there, probably not been logged into in 6 - 9 months?
Most strange but this is the mail I got from Bigpoint.
Hello,
Unfortunately, accounts that are inactive for more than 4 weeks are subject to being marked for deletion as per the terms of service.
If you are not able to locate your account on any of the servers, this is probably the case.
We are not able to re-activate accounts that have been removed.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
Sincerely,
Jeremiah

Blunt.
Tell him you were away on business for a month and come back to find a game you've paid much cash to play and still wish to play is no longer accepting your login. They should at least re-credit you with any monies or levels you previously had.
But you still appear in the fleet roster as a level 30.
Anyone for some smurf busting tonight?
Just logged in to check, my account is still there too. Bizarre way to treat customers tbh if that's the reaction you got :sad:
Gortex dumb question but you're sure you're logging in with the correct details? As Liberator says you do still appear to exist on the Wing Roster, so in theory your account should be intact? Did you make multiple accounts?

Yer I did think that as I did play around with a smurf for a bit on a different server but I really don't remember ever creating another account for it. I did even try all three e-mail addresses I have which might have been used to set up my account and only the one worked which is the one with my level 30 toon.
I logged on Feezuki account today to and her toon is still there and she has not played longer than my self. I think I might have another crack at Bigpoint and see if I can convince them.
