    BETA TEST SIGNUP
    Our goal at Savage Horizons is simple. Provide experienced and mature players a world more difficult, More exciting and more in depth than anything they have seen before. With a immersive RP world roughly derived from Firefly , An amazing admin team, and a hunger to play Starmade for the game it CAN be not the game it IS, we may yet achieve this.


    After the Miranda incident, and the subsequent fall of the Alliance in
    the second Independence War, Blue Sun struggled to distance itself
    from their former Alliance affiliation, and secure their future in the
    galaxy. The Independent Council, comprised of worlds settled by,
    built from, and indebted to the Blue Sun Corporation, was
    understandably conflicted about what to do about the monolithic
    megacorp, whose logo was stamped on every piece of equipment on either
    side of the conflict. In the end, as the prevailing sentiment was
    turning against them, Blue Sun unveiled their latest marketing
    distraction: the Warp Gate.

    Still drunk on their newfound independence, the Council’s constituents
    threw themselves wholeheartedly into even further depths of space,
    each wanting to claim his own little piece of the heavens. To do
    this, they needed the infrastructure Blue Sun already had in place,
    and just like that, the megacorp entwined itself in the fabric of
    everyone’s lives once more.
    Though the Independence Wars are little more than distant memory now,
    humanity remains eternally enamored with the treasures of space, and
    reaching ever deeper, now by way of Blue Sun’s latest product:
    ship-portable Jump Drives. The further they travel, the more untold
    worlds and uncharted asteroids, brimming with mineral wealth, become
    theirs for the taking. What’s more, they find derelict ships and
    colonies from forgotten ages, on a timeless drift from Earth-That-Was,
    awaiting the latest generation of pioneers, prospectors, adventurers,
    and jump jockeys to pluck them out of the sky and bring them home
    again. Out in the lawless Rim, beyond the eyes of God and Government,
    people will become who they truly are.

    -----------------------------------------------

    Where there’s a frontier, there’s Blue Sun. Presently waging an
    economic war on the tiny but determined upstarts of the United trade Federation,
    whos customer base is already preyed upon by or turning into thieves,
    con-men, and ruthless pirates. Those settlers and explorers that
    escape such fates find themselves facing a deeper terror out in The
    Black: the war drums beat on, deafened by the void, as a new
    generation of Reavers turns hungry eyes upon the galaxy.

    Server Attributes

    Challenging

    • A NuclearFun Pirate base.Out with the Isanths, in with terror incarnate. - We are using NuclearFun ships for our base pirate fleet. Yes you heard correctly. we have and are continually overhauling and modifying this amazing Shipcrafter's works to develop the most terrifying NPC pirate's to date. ( scaled appropriately and with care not to make things just stupid) With this as our core we believe we will be able to give experienced players an unparalleled level of difficulty and adventure.
    • Massive and disastrous horrors prowl the depths of space, Patrolling and stopping between the dozens of new pirate stations, including the new "Nightmare" Tier Stations. Discover new stations, New lore integration and immersive custom built treasure troves on new and in some cases, incredibly unparalleled stations. Explore and conquer space.. if you have what it takes...
    • Player Ran "Reaver" Faction. There is no greater danger than those that wait in the darkness. Will you choose to become one yourself and terrorize the cosmos and go for complete dominion? or will you stand as a beacon of light amongst such darkness and pioneer salvation?
    Captivating

    • A massively overhauled and in depth RP world with A whole spectrum of PVE elements to fight and explore From common space-thugs in small fighters to brutal Pirate fleets requiring teamwork and skillto overcome! A host of other unique PVE challenges, both scheduled as events, and awaiting discovery in the depths of space.(Including dozens of new stations, Pirate Bosses, Handcrafted RP treasure hunts and lore in hundreds of places scattered throughout the cosmos.
    • An ever evolving setting: Our RP admins live and breath creating and integrating new and exciting ways that are both thoughtful in incorporation and detail, but also always appropriate to storyline and players ability levels.
    • Player controlled: Our hopes are that the players themselves create the world they want to see. With options to incorporate yourself to either side of the conflict from thestart, Will you join the cause of Blue Sun and help their goal of galactic dominion? Or join the Small beacon of light [Federation Name] in hopes to bringcivility to this dark edge of the world. Or perhaps you will create and cleave out your own destiny and glory? The choice is yours.
    Unique

    • Some essentials like Faction modules are now a "find only" Commodity. Pirates and stations have been redesigned to carry them and allow players to find reasons in fighting/farming and exploring again to obtain the rare but necessary blocks. Players can farm and fight for these different blocks and create a true commerce and trade.[The list of these items will be increasing and may contain in variety of blocks]
    • No homebase Protection: Their are no devices of invulnerability in Savage Horizons. Players must be smart and active in how and where they choose to build home.Those who are brave enough to claim, and strong enough to hold said systems, will receive a 35x mining bonus in which to create massive factories of war. With these changes one must take risks,work hard and have skills in order to flourish.
    • A true and ever evolving and growing world. Our PRIMARY mission is to create a Server unlike any other in the fact that you can count on the world to grow and change with you.With a focused division of our administration working on expanding Lore, Creating active and passive interactions for players to not only be faced with, but to stumble uponin every section of the galaxy. Cities, Ruins, Derelicts, stations and more will have depth and actually give you the player a reason to park in orbit and explore!

    I am starting to get the feeling this server has died. Or has admins with very busy personal lives.

    The server has currently been down for a few days for reasons currently unknown. We are trying to get it fixed but until then, the players will not be able to join. Sorry for any inconvenience this might have caused

    On another note, the server has not died, we just have a very small playerbase so far, so only a few of us are ever on at one time. If you need any ingame admin help, you can pm me or any of the other staff members on starmadedock or on our forums, and we will message you back ASAP.

    Secondly, the build team and I have been working hard on ships and stations to put in the galaxy for the players to find and scavenge.
    In a few days, we will be releasing all the ships along with some pictures to show you guys what we have been working on.

    Do to server problems, we have lost almost all our game data. Sadly, we will have to start almost completely from scratch with both the coding and the in-game projects for you guys. We are currently going to be using a temporary small server until we can get a much better one. The server information can be found on the website.
    (The server info will be up soon, ignore the IP in red.)
