DO...Start taking huge risks please (LF4's, 5's & 6's)!

I have been thinking a new way to get people to play....Keep everything the same because you need to make money!....
However, my idea is that DO should make areas on the game that give newbs limited power at random times (to keep them online and in the game of course) ALL OF THE MENTIONED IS FREE.....(within limits)
...For instance, a number of items found in real time that could give a full set of LF5's..
I am pretty sure players won't like this idea, however, I am sure hundreds, if not thousands of players will turn up...
You see the only thing that works in the real world is when you show that you have vitality and vigor, not just sticking to what you know!!

....Come on guys this game could be amazing......Couldn't it?

ps. Sky is the limit and you know it.

 

Just as well DO is based in space so this idea never goes past its limit.
If this is meant to be a joke, it's pretty unoriginal to make a deliberately bad idea to get annoyed responses from players. Even vespid puts more effort in than this.

 

You keep to your empty maps and same old stuff ..I think my idea is good...

Instead of your criticism, I would like to see something constructive in your post? What do you suggest for dwindling numbers and events that have been long drawn out over the years.?..

I believe if DO actually read my post, they will, eventually try something like this..

Thank me later

 

My personal opinion is that DO needs to be improved in a way to make gaining UFE equipment allot easier, not exactly uridium, but the equipment itself. I've seen suggestions that recommend increasing uridium rewards from aliens, that's a bad idea in my opinion because allot of players are ufe already, and they spend some money each week ( or month) to buy some uridium to purchase ammo so they could pvp ( rsb emps cloaks etc.) increasing uridium gained from aliens would make people pay less to buy ammo, and bp would get less money but im trying to find a way to make both = BP and DO players happy, imagine = if we had many ufe players, there would be more pvp action, so some people might actually start buying uridium during MHH to pvp. So i suggest to increase the chance to get havocs and hercules from zeta and kappa, and increase the chances of lf4's in pirate chests, reduce the cost of upgrades. People would reach ufe status much much faster, and they would start to pvp and see how much fun it actually is. Also, old invasion gate needs to be brought back, these pirate invasion gates are always empty, they are not fun. More pvp events would also be nice but i dont have any ideas for those. Darkorbit is a great game with huge potential, and it can get far if BP will do the right things.

 

What happened last time DO made a big push for more equipment? They crippled the game.
Lots of people left as soon as the LF4 appeared, even more people started botting to get the uridium for the new equipment, DO killed off I would guess around 70% of their player base last time they did something you are suggesting.

 

Im suggesting the stuff is free for all players....It will give everyone a taste of UFE status...Only limited times though.... The benefits will suit every single player on the server at a random particular time (and I mean RANDOM). For the reason that, if it introduces lf5s as a bonus in the game, surely FE noobs will beat UFE newbs. The snag is; it is totally free and random which gives less advanced players hope and UFE players competition.... Just another quirky idea...

 

No.

 

Who would join? Your lf5 would be the same as now lf4. And even actual loyal players would quit. Please use ur brain. Thank you.

 

Okay, my idea works..Not so long ago I tried the free server and it was full of players....All im suggesting is getting more players on the game... Therefore, it's a big FAT YES!! Fromm me....Its been tested and works...Thanks.

Whats a "loyal" player?

 

new weapons dont make people want to all of the sudden join the game. Its the lack of players that keep people away. What this game needs is new maps, new events, new npcs. We dont need new weapons. Also, there should be events held for new players, in which the winners get some kind of bundle like 4 lf4s level 10 and 6 bo2s level 10. Stuff like that, but it cant be made easy either.

 

True.

 

I have been on those kinds of servers too but that's not what does it. Those servers are copies of what dark orbit has and often lags behind because they don't have nearly as much support. Also, everything is completely free. Dark orbit can't run if it's free. Money has gotta come from somewhere and with your idea, pretty much anybody who paid or put a lot of time into the game will leave for sure. If it was a training area, a demo area perhaps where players become UFE against NPCS that give no rewards but vary in difficulty, maybe. Dunno

 

There is less actual new players starting to play this game, all the players are just "returning". Who will in their right mind wanna start to play a game that requires few hundred dollars to be able to make it to port alive after killing BKs.

I actually support new equipment, as long as it is a reasonable price, but we know how that definition is different for BP.

 

it needs to be made alot easier alot quicker or it wont last and you will be just another forum operator on a different game look at whats being said and try and implement it before its to late

 

I think i get the idea.... you mean something like a "rage mode" for a player like for example 5 minutes or something and that happens randomly on the game... and once like everymonth? sounds interesting but its a NO from me, i like it tho, but hacks would be made out of this and well you know the story

 

I agree with koapi32, Anymore super updates and stupid ideas for better ammo and ships and Im out of this game for good..........Enough already! Playing now is currently a big waste of time, I don't enjoy getting popped by someone in 2 shots because they purchased their way to greatness.

The game is pretty much unplayable now and you want to add LF5's and super powers for noobs............Don't think so!

 

lets see, people spend thousands to compete and some noob playing 1 week comes up with lf5 and trashes me? no thank you. couldnt mess this game up more. last year has been DO best one in years lets not mess it up

 

It was an idea to get new players in, and stay in! Without the need to spend thousand like die hard players...Funny how the last two posts completely are the opposite. Crazy states that, "The game is pretty much unplayable now", however, worst behaviour believes that, "The last year has been the best one in years".
My opinion is that the game has improved with less players. I suggest a temporary fix for noobs...Not an obscure coding that has a hit and miss ratio that lets newbs pop you. DO need to be open and either give the new players some sort of clear advantage whilst letting the UFE players know exactly what they are doing , a perfect combination is what we need whilst making it playable for everyone.....
Lastly, the game recently has been un-user friendly with all the bugs... Dont get me started on that topic though....
Peace.

 

Zynaps, u should look at the two us as individuals player with different idea of a great game time/experience and how long both of us have been playing this game.

1. I been playing this game since 2009
2. Worst behavior has been playing since ?? I don't know

Him and I would have different views on the game since we both started at different times and are different ppl with different gaming needs! I started at a time when the game was playable because people could venture off the ports without being popped.

So, No I still don't like your idea.

 

I do see two individuals with seperate opinions, however, comparing opinions is a great way to come up with new ideas.. It's the building blocks of many things to come...
As for different times, I don't understand your point... Gaming needs?
