Hello Developers,
I am here to ask 1 simple question that I think would be very logical:
Is Sirius Singularity gonna be released on Wednesday 26th of October?
In the Preview of Sirius-S. you said we could start our adventure on the end of October, it's almost the end of october and most releases are always on a Wednesday.

-Continuation of Storyline from the begin of all new updates since the Graviton-Conquest Update-
Thats what I hope happens. Her is a brief list of things that are missing in Draconis which would possibly add a great storyline to Draconis with one that happens after we kill the queen, starting with:
The artifact report: http://pirategalaxy.com/artifact-research-report
The wormhole starts when Gravitons are mixed with the Artifact:
The artifact is reconstructed. It’s secrets still unsolved. But that might change.
Scientists found some interesting anomalies: the object reacts on the presence of gravitons – instable iron, found on illegal mining planets. Experiments were astonishing: melting a specific combination of gravitons with fragments of the artifact created an unbelievable result. A wormhole. Stability: Uncertain. Destination: Unknown.
That could have some missions, only problem would be that you would need to keep flying to terasa and back, not really handy and pretty boring. But it would add some story.
Then we have the Carl Sagan Graviton Report: http://pirategalaxy.com/carl-sagan-graviton-report-alpha
Only Carl Sagan laboratories on Terasa come with a permission to experiment with the enormous forces of gravitons. Yet nobody really understood the dangerous ores. Trade is banned since a terrible accident harmed a lot of men and women. Running a series of risky experiments in the draconis system, scientists discovered astonishing behavior in combination with the recently combined artifact. A wormhole was created but it was instable and collapsed after a couple of minutes. Since then, the Carl Sagan scientists are working on controlling this phenomenon.
It seems that those gravitons are also useful to create more controllable anomalies. The energy-rich ores obviously are able to temporarily modify the molecular structure of metals. One team managed to use this effect to dramatically improve the stability of metal surface for short time frames. Currently promising tests seem to show success in positively modifying laser aggregates.
Scientists are confident to be able to control the positive effects of gravitons in the near future. They will stay illegal anyway. The enormous power they’ve shown in the Draconis Experiments are just to frightening to let these ores be freely traded.
Trade with gravitons, accident!? I can't believe I missed so much, but this would add some very interesting story why we can't trade ingame. Atleast, not legally, but we are pirates ^^ !
Illegal Mines: http://pirategalaxy.com/security-issue-illegal-mines
Not only scientist have a close look at gravitons these days. Experimental research with those instable ores achieved a phenomenal breakthrough a couple of weeks ago. In combination with the mysterious artifact, scientists experienced astonishing an behavior (see report). Later the same scientists managed to tempoarily modify surface structures of known materials in exciting ways (see report).
Despite the embargo, trade with gravitons seems to get out of control – the interest is enormous. Pilots from all known star system try to get their hands on the illegal resource.
Reports are there is a multiplicity of illegal mines extracting gravitons, build on lost planets. Some have been destroyed, but tracing their location is tedious work. They are hidden perfectly. Only with a magnitude of information about their locations, encrypted in so-called log files, it’s even possible to detect their whereabouts. There is no doubt that a horrible war between the most powerful clans about the control over those mine has already heated up. Eye witnesses reported about tremendous battles to secure access to the illegal ore.
The security problem is serious. The use of gravitons to modify material structures is at a manageable risk. But if those clans someday find out how to combine those gravitons with the artifact, the wormhole with unknown destination might open again. And nobody knows, which danger those humans will encounter if this happens.
Wormhole Investigation: http://pirategalaxy.com/wormhole-investigation-progress-report
Scientists of Terasa’s Carl Sagan Laboratory are pouring all their resources into investigating the gaping wormhole in outer space that appeared with the outcome of the Draconis experiment. Current technology has proven insufficient for a successful jump.
Although scientists are theoretically familiar with how star gates work no energy has yet been discovered that would trigger a wormhole’s reaction. To utilize such a singularity for bridging vast distances requires a precisely configured energy and gravity field. In current experiments the researchers are using gravitons and novel drives to get said reaction, with muted success so far.
Also nothing is known about the wormhole’s destination yet. Judging from prior reports the scientists believe that wormholes like this are usually created from chaotic energy compounds. A spokesperson from the Carl Sagan Laboratory openly suggests that no matter where the wormhole might lead travelers will encounter chaos and reality warping. The journey into the foreign singularity will be no walk in the park, the experienced scientist added.
Research continues and the men and women of Terasa work feverishly towards making a jump possible.
Wormhole Investigation 2: http://pirategalaxy.com/wormhole-investigation-first-test-jumps-a-success
With thundering applause scientists of Carl Sagan Laboratory celebrated the first successful attempt at sending a probe through the wormhole. It was equipped with high grade sensors to transmit first-time imagery and measuring data from the origin of the singularity to the lab. A newly-developed drive based on existing jump technology and a daring combination of gravitons enabled an energy fluctuation that saved the probe from being instantly destroyed upon hitting the wormhole.
Few minutes after the jump the scientists were receiving first data. Distressing data. Energetic chaos prevails at the wormhole’s destination. The sensor data shows unimagined peaks, cameras record an unbelievable and surreal spectacle of light. A few seconds later the streaming of data ends with the probe silenced forever. Its material could not bear the extreme forces any longer.
What If you were the one that brought all the components together to create this and maybe you would even see a sneakpeak of the singularity? So much potential...
traversing the wormhole: http://pirategalaxy.com/first-humans-traversing-the-wormhole
After a series of test jumps with subsequently improved probes a jump ship could now be constructed, allowing humans the traversal of the wormhole. A brave team of qualified scientists, experienced navigators and daredevil pilots proclaimed itself ready to take the chance of jumping into the singularity. Unfortunately the expedition team did not make it back — but their discoveries survived: The singularity seems to be an ever-changing system of planets continually appearing and disappearing.
File 1; New Material Found: On the planets we managed to find some kind of unknown materials. First tests revealed their extraordinary power when we nearly blew up the whole ship. Better to test them in a closed off, safe environment at Carl Sagan’s. Maybe these materials – we call them “Quarcs” – could be used as fuel for the ships that bring expeditions deeper into the singularity.
File 2; Hostile Environment: Something in the singularity slowly eats away our hull, we have to get back very soon. Our expeditions won’t last long unless we find something that protects us properly. Our testing on Quarcs returned that their energy charge should be of perfect use as fuel. The kind of power output provided by Gravitons on the other hand seems ideal for shielding off against the energetic chaos. What is particularly astonishing is that the planets seem completely stable once they have emerged until they finally vanish. Still, however stable planets are once they appeared in the singularity, some solution has to be found for making an escape in time once they start disappearing.
File 3; Unknown and Known Beings: To our surprise we encountered well-known beings on the planets: Somehow mantis made it here! At first glance it seems obvious that time-space might be off – maybe other anomalies did bring those aliens here. We also found evidence of a frighteningly powerful yet unfamiliar technology; maybe we have even stumbled upon an unknown alien race?
Vega Invasion: http://pirategalaxy.com/vega-invasion
“Sirius”. Some hope they will find fame and fortune when they make it to this legendary place. For others it is the ultimate punishment: To gain some knowledge of the other side methanoids have forced their worst criminals through the wormhole. But none of them ever returned.
The present however marks the beginning of exciting new times! With their unstoppable urge for adventure humankind will shape the future of Sirius — perhaps sooner than they expect.
The test jumps conducted by scientists have not gone unnoticed, and last time the wormhole opened a group of banned methanoids slipped through as well — did all of them actually survive in there?!
Their fleet heads directly for the Vega System, with mining planet Dante being their likely target. Valuable Gravitons are excavated there which could be used by the criminals to go deeper into the singularity. After robbing Dante it seems they plan to plunder Sirius as well — but did they factor in the brave space pirates?
Drive back the methanoid fleets on Dante and capture valuable Gravitons and rare blueprints!
Starting October 21 and lasting 72 hours you are granted a massive 20% discount on all Gold packs, be sure to use it to your advantage!
This is interesting, the wormhole should have existed some time and the methanoids would need to have the time to rebuild their bases on Gazica and then there is the criminal part.
The fact that some slipped trough and went to Vega is interesting, that should defenitly be a boss mission and the final mission of Draconis before you go after them.
Conclusion, Draconis could have some great extra 20 missions or so that would involve going into the wormhole.
