New Quest system

"While missions, which were used to calculate ranking points, will be reset to zero, the achievements obtained through missions will remain in your account. Naturally, you will be able to complete all missions which are offered up until your level, so that you are not put at a disadvantage here as compared to newbies." -- from the pop-up "Off to New Missions" on logging in today.

I was quite surprised no-one had posted about this yet. I would like some clarification on what is meant here. It seems to read that our Missions Completed section of Your Rank will be reset to zero. Is this true, or was something else meant?
Further, it states we will not be at a disadvantage as compared to newbies. However, if Missions Completed is reset to zero, long-time players such as myself will lose the many Event Quests we have completed over the years. So that would be a disadvantage as far as rank points goes if indeed this is the case.
My hope is I am reading this wrong, the Missions Complete are not reset to zero and long-time players can add the new quests to their totals. I appreciate and clarification that can be brought to this.

Thank you.

 

Yes Hawk we were discussing this in GB2 chat and needs to be cleared up for us ").

Rat

 

I really dont get it , i thought that developers of Dark orbit understood its not only missions we wanted we wanted good rewards from them....

 

Wish they'd change the daily ones, at the moment they aren't very good. off topic there <--.
Back to the point, I wish they'd keep old missions on and the rank points awarded. Jut's post says they're gonna remove them (and the rpts along with them).

 

from what i make of it i think they mean this
+Missions completed 174x 100 will be reset

not the actual rewards u gained from the quests honor/rpts etc

 

It seem like DO doesn't care about the player that have stuck around for years.

WHY remover these rank point we have earned?

Are we going to eventually have all rank point taken from us?

We earned those rank points as a reward for the quest we completed.

 

so every one gos back to to Basic Space Pilot lol

 

You may have noticed that up until now we have offered a various number of missions per level, which for the most part had nothing to do with each other and provided you with little variety. After narratively arranging the beginning of the game, we'd now like to do the same to the missions for higher player levels. Thus, starting the middle of next week, the first step will be to offer a wide range of new missions as far as the level you've reached. At this point in time, you will no longer be able to accept all old missions.



No we dont go back to zero but removeing are rank points is totally wrong / we earned these by doing the quest we earned these by doing the special quest and we started before newer players so why should we have to start out like a new player with zero quest completed and zero rank points from completed quest / We the older players want new quest along with our completed old quest not a slap in the face and on top of that missions will be based on your level so a lower level player will be able to start the lower level missions and work his/her way up but a higher level play is left with higher level quest only whats wrong with that picture !!!!!

 

I dont do those quests anymore, they are a waste... kill these things.. takes a hour for lil reward.. ep everything... lame..

 

The way I understand is that they resetting the count to 0. But what you have already completed is credited to your account. Lets look at it like the Odometer on your car. You have one for the total milage on the car and one for the full tank of gas. They are resetting the one for the gas, not your total mileage.
Besides, I could careless about rank or status. Full LF4's or LF3's hit just as hard whether your a Basic Space Pilot or a One Star General.
In addition to the resetting of quests complete, I got the impression of some sort story that the quest revolve around. Who knows.

 

Yeah this whole thing needs to be thought out more, their just messing it all up as usual, its more of what they think is better compared to what we know is better, and what we want.

 

people actually do quests? Lol

 

Um back in the old days yes, a lot of us did, some still get them done, it is worth it for noobs to build up, and sometimes gives us big players something to do. I am on 1k mmo and 1k vru golis also have 6/20 ubks for quest..

 

I've completed probably 80% of the quests and now they are gonna take all my rank points for quests achieved away from me this update sucks.

 

Well back in the old days of dark orbit speical quest counted on your rank so 25 quest for Christmas some for the 4th of july and other holidays added to the quest on your rank now they say hey where takeing those away / Well thats not what anyone wanted we wanted new Quest new maps new aliens not heres new quest where resetting you to zero start over please / Im to the point of finding a new game to spend my money on

 

Perhaps we should get some galaxy gates for the quest rp removal? per 50 quests = 1 gate?
Just to get that rp back.

 

wishful thinking there mate lol

 

ell can u have your lvl reset than so i can benifit the new quests as im lvl 21 no quest for lvl 21 so ill just get lvl 17 quest will i why dont dark orbit make quest createrlike other games now as its in gta v with rubish when u lvl 120 doin the same misions over and over u can allso set chalenges aswell. would be more fun

 

They should repay us somehow, just another thing to shoot down the legit players who worked hard for their ranks.

 

Rank Points? It is amazing how many people are worried about this. I would think most would be working on finding their next LF4 or working on their next upgrade. What do you get with Star next your name. Bragging rights maybe? Your still going going to pop and that not going to stop people from trying to pull you down a peg or two.
Go ahead and make me a basic space pilot. I love the idea of looking like a sleeper and catching someone not pay attention.
I still believe that most of you guys and gals are misreading this and jumping the gun on what might or what will happen.
