Discuss Everything About Galaxy on Fire Wiki
Hey there folks. It’s been… quite a while. I’m sure most of you reading this have come straight from the Discord, but what I’ve to say here may peak your interest nonetheless.
It’s been… grok, nearly three years since I, in all my power, declared this Wiki as dead. Really doesn’t feel like that long ago, but here we are. When I said that, I meant from a community standpoint — with the slight hope that it could be revived a couple of years down the line.
Some of you may be aware that in 2018, a German website reported that Deep Silver Fishlabs were given €400,000 in order to fund what appeared to be Galaxy on Fire 4: Unleashed. This was very exciting news for us, as we thought maybe, just MAYBE that could revive the Wiki somewhat. A triple-A game set in the GoF universe? Heck yeah!
However, we waited… and waited… and waited, for news. 18 months pass by and we hear absolutely nothing from the devs. 2019 comes by and the DSFL website suddenly shows that they were wanting to hire several new team members, which seemed a bit alarming. A new team? New leadership? Halfway through production? What went wrong?
Well, I don’t know exactly. However a little over a month ago, out of nowhere a trailer popped up on the DSFL YouTube channel for a new AAA space-shooter with a rogue hero… named Chorus?? What?!
Long story short, I strongly suspect Chorus (Chorvs) is what GoF4 was meant to be. Somewhere along the pipeline, the creative team was switched and the GoF franchise took the toll. This is really sad news if it turns out to be the truth. This is speculation.
As for the rest of the franchise:
- Galaxy on Fire 3D (GoF1) has long been removed from the App Store and no longer supports 64-bit devices.
- GoF2 SD suffered the same abandonment.
- GoF2 HD still works on iOS and Android, but support has been terrible. I’m, er, partially responsible for that.
- GoF2 Full HD for PC/Steam still doesn’t, and likely never will, have the DLCs. A half-baked mod exists to bring some Valkyrie elements to the game, but that’s it.
- Full HD for macOS is dead. People are reporting faulty downloads from the Mac App Store, and when the app tries to open, it attempts to verify something with Apple infinitely, and never loads. The issue may be solved on macOS Seirra, but this is unconfirmed.
- Some slightly good news here: in the coming months, Macs will begin transitioning from Intel chips to Apple’s own silicone (ARM). This means that thanks to macOS Big Sur, iOS apps will be able to run natively on ARM Macs, meaning desktop GoF isn’t entirely dead. It’s not true Full HD, but it’s close.
- GoF Alliances was shut down almost a year ago now.
- GoF3 still hasn’t been updated to for the 2018 iPad Pro screens.
- Hey remember Manticore Rising?
So, all that being said, where does this leave the Wiki? The answer: at the finish line. We’ve done it folks. There is no more GoF content to report on outside of any missing Manticore pages nobody cares about. No new games will come out, maybe ever. The OG dev team now work at Rockfish Games, where Everspace 2 is their current project — and looks like the GoF3 we all deserved. (Side note, it is not a successor to GoF2 or 3. It is its own entity.)
Lastly, the community. We have pretty much all migrated to the Discord server, where we’re still pretty active. The Wiki has run its course, so we’re having fun on Discord, modding and speedrunning, as well as good old-fashioned screenshotting. Come join us if you’re not there already!
I’m glad to have been a part of this amazing Wiki and community. Around this time in 2012, I made my first edit, and I was hooked for a long time. But here’s my confession: I’m almost glad there won’t be another game. I’ve grown up, I’m busy, and ultimately just wouldn’t have the time or energy to curate an entire game’s worth of new content. I imagine the situation is the same for the other mods too. I’d love to see this Wiki go back to the circa-2013 era, but that was long ago, and so much has changed in that time. I’m gonna miss Keith and the crew.
For now pages will still be editable, but depending on the activity here, they may (emphasis on ‘may’) close down for editing, to protect against vandalism. All the mods from here have left (some are on Discord), so there’s not exactly the best security here now.
Thanks to my fellow mods, both current and former, for helping bring Wiki come to life. Thanks to the OG Fishlabs team for endorsing this Wiki on their site back in the day — and Rockfish Games still does to this day! Incredible team. And most of all, thanks to Uggut for creating this Wiki way back in 2010. I wouldn’t have made the friends I did if it weren’t for him.
So, unless a new GoF property comes out of nowhere, then it’s off to new adventures! See you around. I’ll continue to be as inactive as I’ve been for the past couple of years, but if you need my, or anyone else’s help, find us on Discord. It’s our last outpost.
One last thing, I realise this post is rather simillar to the one I made in 2017, declaring the Wiki dead — however at least then there was a glimmer of hope that we’d be getting a new game. After recent events though, I don’t think that will be happening — ever. So long, folks. o7

TL;DR: No new GoF content is coming out any time soon as GoF4 has very likely been entirely cancelled. Thus, the Wiki has run its course. Please join our Discord server where we are still active. Thanks and so long!
Issues on Fire and Galaxy tablets — BB Theme

Hi support,
Out new site built with BB theme and plugin is looking great and working well apart from some issues on tablets.
Non-ipad tablets don’t display the video or fall back image on home page and other small photo images are missing, plus all the thumbnails and accompanying text. Problems also on the menu navigation problems where sub menu items are not visible.
Help would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Gerry

Hi KC,
Thanks for support, I’ll look forward to hearing from you.
The biggest concern is the menu navigation problems where my client is reporting you can’t see any of the sub-menu items.

Hi KC,
Have you had any luck coming up with a solution?
Thanks,

Hey Gerry,
Sorry, we’re only using emulators to check for this issue. Do you mind sending in screenshots of the problem from the actual device?

Hi Ben,
Thanks for support.
KC had mentioned that he had replicated some problems on the Fire tablet, for the problem with the sub menus not appearing it’s going to be difficult to demonstrate the lack of a sub menu in a screen shot.
I’ll try to get my client to be more specific about the problems with regard to devices.

Hey Gerry,
Yep, and as I’ve said, we’re only using emulators to check. I did check the site via BrowserStack on a Kindle Fire HDX 7 and I’m seeing the same thing on an iPad. I’m asking for screenshots to know if we’re(your client and us) getting the same thing. Thanks!

Hi Ben,
OK I appreciate your help.
I’ll let you know what he comes back with. Just to say, when I view on an iPad everything looks fine.
With the amount of options BB has for serving different content on different devices it should be possible for me to resolve most issues, my main concern is the problem he’s reported with the sub menu not working as I’m not sure how I’d fix that one.
Thanks,
Gerry

Hi Gerry,
Doing our forum housekeeping and was wondering if this has now been resolved?
I’m marking the topic as resolved, but let us know if the issue remains.
Thanks,

Hi Danny,
Thanks for getting in touch, great support again from the BB team!
No, this hasn’t been resolved entirely. I’ve been trying to get more specific device info from my client. If you could keep it open please I’ll get in touch with my client again.
Thanks,
Gerry

Hi Support,
I’ve had more specific feedback from my client on the issues he’s seeing, if you could check these out that would be a great help:
The issues with the site are appearing on all non Apple tablets of various makes and on ipads, only on the ipad2. Not all of the issues are happening on all non-Apple tablets as sometimes it’s just one of the problems. The display problems are:
The Home Page default image appearing twice, one above the other, and/or no image/video appearing at all with just a grey blank screen.
The bullet point (thumbs up) text is missing from the lower section of the Home Page.
The Tickets Page images are juggled about and mixed up.
Images and text getting juggles about and mixed up on the Lineup Pages.
The drop down Q&As are not always working.

Hey Gerry,
Do you think it’s possible to get the versions of the browsers and operating systems in question? It could be running an older version where some of the functions aren’t supported yet.

Thanks,

— I was there — I was there — I was there, — I was there, said Titus Kassar, his weak, trembling voice barely audible in the far corners of the hall. ‘I was there when Horus turned his back on the Emperor.
His words uttered a general sigh of horror from the assembled followers of the teaching of Divine Revelation, and all, as one, bowed their heads, bowed under the weight of the cruel truth. In the back row of the hall—an empty warehouse on one of the lower decks of the Warmaster’s flagship, the Vengeful Spirit—Kirill Sindermann grimaced at Kassar’s words. The guy would never have been taken to iterators, but in his words there is an unshakable confidence of a person who does not doubt his innocence. nine0003
Sindermann envied this confidence.
He himself hadn’t felt anything like it for many months.
As chief iterator of the Sixty-Third Expedition, Kirill Sindermann was to propagate the Imperial Truths of the Great Crusade, convincing the Compliant worlds of the benefits of Imperial rule and the greatness of the Imperium. It was a noble mission — to carry the light of reason and knowledge to the most remote corners of the continuously growing Imperium of Mankind. nine0003
But at some point everything changed.
Sindermann didn’t understand when it all started. On Xenobia? On Davina? On Aurea? Or some other of the many planets brought into compliance? Once Kirill was known as an adamant preacher of secular ideas, but times have changed, and Kirill increasingly recalled Sahlonium, the Sumaturan philosopher, who wondered: why does the light of the new science not penetrate as far as the beliefs of the old sorcerers? The monotonous sermon of Titus Kassar captured Sindermann’s attention again. Tall and angular, Titus wore the uniform of a moderator, one of the senior officers of the Dies Ire, an Imperator-class titan. Sindermann suspected that Kassar owed his position in the ranks of the followers of the Divine Revelation to his high rank and friendship with Euphrati Keeler. The new status was clearly too tough for him. nine0003
