Dear players,
today we offer some more info about our upcoming version, starting with yesterday's pictures:
This screen shows our new "merchant overview" which now contains 4 different features in a single menu. Don't worry, all of it works without any flash so that there is no problem related to our game performance. From this ovierview you are able to reach all 4 subcategory's and from there back to the merchant overview.
On the upper left you can find the already existing merchant:
...which still works with its already known settings related to the ratio (3 2 1) and the limitation to your storage limit.
Already during this week we will offer detailed news about two more features out of this screen, the upper right and the one at the bottom on the left. On Thursday we will offer screens from their subcategory's and on Friday several more detailed info about those (*new*!) feature. Your speculations are already on a good way.
Additional info:
* With update 4.0 we will introduce a small item shop into OGame. With the help of it you will be able to support single planets more direct instead of your entire empire.
* To avert too heavy advantages for premium player we will offer several possibilities to gain all items for free directly within the game. This will require the usage of resources and your honour points (

without dark matter). Those possibilities will be included directly into the game, it's nothing about external partner. Also it offers us the possibility for more events within the game.
* You will have the chance to restructure your account a little respectively to addapt it to a new gaming style.
We are really happy about all your feedback and a lot of nice suggestions out of our international communities. Stay tuned - more info already on Thursday!
regards
Your OGame team
