  1. Will Dark Orbit take any of this into consideration?

    Well. I am not a New player. But never heard of that. How do you think other players will know that. More info needed on this. And not on CBS. In a clan info. All benefits of the clan.

  4. Random ideas for skill tree points for newbe/FE protection:
    • After being killed 4 times you won't take any damage from players and their mines for 1 hour.
    • If an other player attack you with MCB-50, UCB and/or RSB, you can only die after 10 seconds.
    • All these buffs will be removed, if you attack another player with MCB-50, UCB and/or RSB.

    I find the clan missions interesting. But, what if they created a clan gate? The requirement would be like Hades in that all participating members have to have that gate completed, with a min and max number of players, and the clan as a whole needs to have a CBS constructed. the gate would be a kind of "defend the base/CBS" kind of gate as opposed to the traditional just kill NPCs. That would make people actually invest into CBSs as I don't really see any and add an incentive to join and stay in a clan as it would be a very interesting twist. There could also be multiple gates that are more or less the same like Alpha, Beta, and Gamma with different power multipliers so that clans of different power levels can so that clans that aren't in the top 100 or so can actually do at least one of the gates.

    There should also be a special gate reward that allows customization of ships (like clan specific logos or decals created by the leader) that gives each clan an individuality and differentiates them from other clans rather than just a 4 character name thing (I forgot what it is called), kind of like the shield idea, but more pronounced. Of course, the rewards should be split among everyone who participates with an additional bonus given to the top damage dealers like what was mentioned.

    I really like the idea of the new pirate map where people have to be more focused and cautious instead of just running around, but the whole entire map should have the anti-cloak mist as people will probably just run around in cloak until they find the boss ship thing. Also I really like the ideas where levels have meaning. In oterh games, you you can get extra slots or abilities where you can use bonuses like extra armor or damage, and I really like the idea of having a different kind of Pilot Bio option based on level rather than log disks and pilot points.

    TL;DR, I liked the ideas and Lol I don't have a lot of specific details, but just create clan gates.

    Also, maybe create a map that can only be accessed by building a "GG". It won't be a GG in the sense that only you can enter and fight a certain number of enemies, but it is created and anyone who has the gate created can enter and instead of the objective of killing all the aliens, you have a certain amount of in-game time to farm up in a certain "hidden map," kind of like Cubikon Graveyard, but not exactly. Maybe there can be a time limit of 10 in game hours where people can got to the map that they built and hunt aliens that give high amounts of uri for their hitpoint/sheild or have a higher rate of dropping Plasmide/Scrap/the other assembly materials.

    So the "GG" would be more like a portal instead of a gate and would allow you to access higher level maps, kind of like how you do when you get higher levels. Also, this "portal" would cost less parts, maybe 10 or twenty since it is temporary. Also maybe instead of one map, it can be kind of like pirate maps where there is a certain theme that runs through the maps and can only be accessed by going through the portal that you created. This would create more space for if many people want to go there at the same time, as well as potentially providing more diversity in terms of map design and aliens/rewards.


    Also, there should be a credit gate like what was mentioned, but instead of it being permanent in the sense that you can do it over and over again, it should have fairly good rewards and only be able to be done once.
    ex. it takes 30 parts to create using credits(or uri) at whatever price, but it gives
    100,000 uri total (Gate reward + Alien kills), 50 log disks, 5 Lf-3s, 5 Bo-2s 25 Booty Keys, 1,000,000 credits, 200,000 Honor, 10,000,000 EP and Goli Sovereign, Vanquisher, and Peacemaker for whatever company you are in.

    Again, this will be a one time only gate that is designed to give newer players a boost/head start while actually having to have progressed a descent amount into the game. 100k uri may seem like a lot, but that can be burned through pretty quickly: that's only enough to get one non 3-D drone design, 10 Lf-3s, or half to get a PET. I'm just throwing out numbers, but it should be fairly easy to craft and not too difficult while giving a substantial amount of rewards to help boost newer players.

    Lol, last random idea, but there should be a special shop where items can only be bought using Jackpot Currency. (You can't buy things in the shop even with actual money)
    Ex. a ship that is on par with Goli Skill designs, Pusat, Tartarus, Hammerclaw, ect. but can only be bought with 500 Jackpot dollars, a new laser Lf-4 upgrade that has a acts like a mini emp and decreases the enemy accuracy by .2% per laser maxing out at -5% accuracy (25 lasers) while in combat that costs 100 Jackpot dollars. Same with drones and shields and pet gear and what not. Again, a very crazy idea, but something like that would be interesting. Also, maybe reduce the % chance of getting Jackpot money in boxes and instead bring something back like JPA where instead of Jackpot currency being used to get real money, you get Jackpot currency instead to buy things at the new store, where it would happen weekly and people can only win it once every two months (so if you win on January 1st, you can't enter again until March 1st) so that more people have a chance at winning in it.

    I find your idea interesting, I will put some thought into it and possibly incorporate it.





    Update Changes:
    *Added Havoc Rebalancing
    *Added Instant Upgrades (100%)

    Additionally I am still struggling with a name for this, as DarkOrbit Remastered doesn't have much of a ring to it.. I am open to suggestions.

  8. i like the havoc part, but instant upgrades might be too OP
     
  9. Well that was one heck of a thread.
    Since there’s think I like and dislike, I’ll just write what I like in here.

    I do like the drone future, since it’ll balance the game a bit.

    I really like your idea of the 5-4 map, this really sounds like a fun map, I don’t know about the rewards, but that’s a minor thing to worry about.

    I really like the idea of levels actually getting a point in the game, not only to gain access to maps, but for small advantages in game. + the things you’re suggesting are really good I think, especially when you need something to get others. (since I don’t like that you want ppl to get to lvl 35, I think you should get all the lvl knowledge at lvl 25 or maybe 30, just so you kinda have to pick some you won’t get)

    I also like the pilot bio going to 55, but don’t like the scout ability.

    I do like clan quest + the competition, but the part with CBS I can’t see working, because you can get kicked from a clan.
