    The only bad thing about that was the resolution, you we're playing on a really small screen..

    How big would it have been compared to the current one?
     
  7. iris wasn't even out back in 2006, they were an update sometime in 2007 I believe. the oldest darkorbit pic I have seen battle maps didn't even existed back then. I do have the link to several old pictures but not sure if its allowed, im going to post it anyway.

    It was fixed at 800x600 during the old client, which was the smallest possible resolution in the new client before unlimited resolution was put in.
     
  11. If thats true. failure on my part. I guess it took a year for the forums to be formed because the earliest posts were in 2008 on the old forums.

    How do you start before a game is released?
     
  17. No idea lol, I started in jan of 2007, my cousin introduced the game to me because I didn't have xbox live then, and we wanted something we could play on.
    I would post the picture itself for this, but it isn't working. so here is a link. I resized it so it is blurry, photobucket seems to enjoy shrinking photos down to a tiny square.

    well, even though it is blurry, I can see it. Why are the ships so big?! They look like cubes here! Were the ships in the early days always so big?
     
  19. Yeah they were bigger then, the Newest UI really drops it lol. Um... here is a video of after they changed. When DO was still considered good.
