    Hi all,

    This may be information that everyone knows already, but I contacted support directly yesterday about this, and this was the response I got.

    I'm hoping it means that removing the cap is just around the corner.
     
  3. Literally a 5-10 mins work in the scripting job to rid the ammo cap, they're just lazy and make excuses.

    Not true. The developers work hand in hand with project managers - they get handed down projects that need to be done in certain time periods (such as bug fixes/patches, developing new items such as the 1v1 arena). Obviously removing the ammo cap isn't high on the list of priorities, but I can promise you that the developers aren't just sat around the office doing nothing all day :rolleyes:
     
  5. I pretty sure they are just sitting around hogging down donuts, lol.

    Since when does Farming = mining? So all farms around the world are mines now? :p

  7. DO is NEVER going to raise the ammo cap. They want us to run out of the good stuff :p Now it is on sale, but you GOT 2 FIGHT 4 IT (Dominate)! Whiteys for sale without going into a GG :rolleyes: At least it's shapely :cool:

    From a different topic posted here about whether this a shootin' game or a collection/farming game. When you sign up in the first page it says - shooter game - the second page says - collection/farming/manufacturer game when you pick a company MMO/EIC/VRU which are you?. I am not posting on this topic anymore.

    Dark Orbit removing the ammo cap It can be done with no problem but they will not do it is the bottom line. That is why why made ships to hold more ammo more rockets and stuff the ammo cap is not going to be removed they would had done it by now so you can just forget about it

    Unlimited...mining
    vast resources = collecting game

    that means you can pick up all the ammo you want they are not lying about that however that dose not mean you get to keep all of it.... Sure you can farm forever Unlimited...mining but you don't get to keep most of what you pick up

    Does anyone have the original Dev team post where they said they were going to remove the ammo cap or did they delete it? lol

    Playing Dark Orbit is like standing over a frozen lake on THIN ICE



    The timetable for this is not set, and it is among a number of things that we hope to add to the game soon but as of this time it has not been finalizes

  14. This is from This Thread
    Now, this was a re-post, I don't know when Rick posted it but it was sometime before 4th December 2013. Therefore, rick suggested we would have this update at least by February earlier this year. We are now half a year later...

    ***EDIT*** Just noticed the title of that thread says "Welcome to the DO Roadmap - Posted by Rick Dekard 25.11.13" which suggests the update should have been at the very beginning of this year or even in 2013.

    My guess is the "proper analysis" showed less "spikes" of people buying uridium and they didn't take the long term into account.

    They never promised Rick said that they where looking into removeing the ammo cap.
    But did anyone ever think what happens to the lazor or rocket buy cpu or the armory upgrade cpu with the cap removed you I or the next person could buy all the credit ammo you want and also free up 3 extra slots on your ship . Do we then ask for refunds on those Items or better yet start crying that you want something else for free

    I don't really care what they do, it is their game and they can do what they want wit it.... If you think about it we really have no say so on what they do or don't... Dark Orbit can be here one day and gone the next as for accounts too
     
  17. Well.. all I got to say is.. the ammo buy CPU was really cheap and a Great tool..
    If they Remove the CAP.. it will still work the same.. when your Lazer ammo or Rockets reach 100 the CPU will AutoBuy..

    AutoWash if your a Perfect Weapon.. or Bruce Willis / Futuristic Cabbie..

    got some other stuff to put but Not on this Tread..

    I want a " Multi-pass " :confused:

    Thanks to Our Ideas.. BigPiont fixed it so Elite Items Can NOT be Sold from Accounts .. should someone get Hacked.. by a Trojan or worm or Keyloggin Hacker..

    Thanks for Fixing that..

    I (and many others) would still use those. I NEVER look at my x1 ammo to see how much is left. Same for 2026 rockets. They are completely automated. Way too much work to look at them every single time. Also, the amount of creds I have and get in a day..I could bust through that ammo that the creds buy within a few hours of playing...and I get almost 10%-25% of the creds I used in return.
     
  19. Laser and rocket CPU will still be used. It's a CPU designed for ease of use, not to bypass the ammo cap. Armoury expansion chip may not be a problem either, they could probably just release the unlimited ammo through a new armoury expansion CPU. Either way things in the game aren't set in stone and can easily be changed just like the Send to Skylab option, someone mentioned in the thread that after contacting support the developers did say they are aware/looking into it.
