Dark Skies is based entirely around spaceship combat with dozens of weapons, ships, and loadout customization. Each player pilots one ship in a third person perspective. All ships have a certain amount of hardpoints which can hold different types of weapons. A single ship can have many different loadouts so even if everyone was using the same ship, the battles, tactics, and play styles can be quite diverse. Pilots earn credits for damaging enemy ships. These credits can be used to buy bigger and better ships. If a ship is destroyed, that player needs to purchase a new ship. The goal of the round will likely be to destroy an enemy teams station/base/dreadnaught (and of course do the most damage for your team).
