    everyone begs for things f2p can get just as fast as wallet warriors so you guys make some new drones for the gate bunnies? do you want this game to die? do you only want the people who throw thousands at a dead game to stick around so they can kill off every possible new player FASTER??? what the hell is wrong with you [REMOVED]?!

    how bout new maps SOONER THAN NEXT YEAR? or even new npcs that actually have a good reward compared to how expensive youre making this game?? play your own game a few months and see what we're saying with the pay to win imbalance YOU [REMOVED] created, and only make worse every update.

    also, to monetize the free players better, put more ads in the backpage so you still get a nickel here and there, just no videos over 30 sec and it should be acceptable more than offensive

  2. I would accept every ad, if I gain in game advantages (but it want to get more than 1 EE for a video).
     
  3. They used to allow us to watch videos for Uridium but that feature seems to have disappeared at the RELOADED upgrade. I would like to see this and FREE EQUIPMENT videos added back to the system (making sure we get the reward for clicking to view, not a message saying there are not videos available at this time). Of course, make them equal to the value we get (15 minute video for 100 Uridium/free spin/45 minute reduction in transfer is not acceptable but for an LF-4 I might sit through). You have punished us for trying to collect B B's to better our ships, trying to decrease BOTTERS, you are now making Premium Players sit through a video or click to skip for 100 Uridium.

    The FREE player may not make the game profitable but then WE do keep the maps populated, IF YOU DO NOT CHASE US AWAY. The A.S. was supposed to assist US in balancing out ships against the WALLETS, but instead it has become another REVENUE source, as many of the needed items come from doing G G's and the FREE player might be able to build one of these a month (or risk being called a BOT as we spend all of our time in the Pally Fields).

    the issue would be the value for time. maybe balance it for like 1k uri per 30 second or something thats actually worth doing

    1)Yup.
    2)Nope,because they won't get money that way.xD
    3)Just to give them a purpose to continue spending thousands.
    4)Rhetorical question.
    5)Dream on.xD
    6)No chance haha
    But i am surprised that you are still here instead of spending time in a game that gives you entertainment without having to spend a ton.

    i log in every once in a while hoping it might get better. ive played this game like 8 years and actually spent money before the game became trash. hate to just throw that all out because some company is filled with unwise people

    With all due respect,that's a pretty [REMOVED] reason not to quit.Oh and P2W games are made for money milking.

    Just look at the unoficial anoucements, ufes are all excited to start wasting money on that noob loking drone. Even if devs wanted to turn this game around they would face severe community resistence. Ufes like the game as it is, and since they are those who pay devs wount change anything. The main complains i see are about lag, the lack of new players to bach andof course the (wallet hurting) bots, its rare to see coments about game balance geting large atencion. So as long as the (paying) community continues to like this cartonish joke and giving them money it will stay as it is ... FOREVAAAA (or until they shut it down :D).

    I've spent 9 years on this game and have been hacked twice. I spent a grand total of $60 on this game and this lasted me for 3 months because of premium. I think DO will start to pick up on the fact that their losing money by adding more of a gap between the P2Winners and the Free Players. And yes, the new drone that came out is ugly, which is why I submitted a redesign of it - Spartan Drone Redesign Updated & Idea Pool - along with a new ship. This drone makes it much easier for free players to acquire the Havoc and Hercules drones much faster (yes, the P2W as well, but that's not the point). You almost have a 50% chance of getting the Havoc now and like 35% chance of getting the Hercules. DO may not be looking out for the little guy, but they're goal isn't to bully them either (Not saying they aren't hurting them either).

    Beautiful... The problem however is that it doesn´t change:
    1) The fact that it takes forever to close a gg for a f2p (maybe more).
    2) The fact that more chance is still chance and we all know how that works in DO (lf3 day, etc).
    3) The fact that i hate all ufe gear and i (and realy many people) just want 2010 DO back.

    "DO may not be looking out for the little guy, but they're goal isn't to bully them either (Not saying they aren't hurting them either"

    I agree, normaly ufes are the ones bullying but i didnt say BP did it, i just said they wouldnt change anything bc they dont want to upset paying users (who like the game as it is except for lag and lack of fooder).
     
  11. To all the people who complains about how hard it's to get all the gear in the game, some crying on the forum and starte spending the time in the accual game.

    I have a friend who started again for about 8 month ago, he was FE whit no extra things. He only needs level 6 lf-4 to lvl 16, then he's UFE, (he still needs some PP). He have only spend money on premium, and then a little on some of the eventboosters, but that's it.

    If you know how to play the game, want to spend some time playing and want to make friends are willing to help once a while, then it's pretty easy to be UFE in darkorbit today.

    HHHOOOO we can become ufe by "spend money" yaa that are... big news... thanks for sharing.

    "To all the people who complains about how hard it's to get all the gear in the game, some crying on the forum and starte spending the time in the accual game"

    LOLOLOLOLOLOL spend time in the actual game? Yaa because we never play u see what we post here is based on atmosferic pressure :D
    Also what im i going to do in the game? Fight tartarus or colect boxes until im a robot or bach gates until im brain dead or even worst look at the ridiculous graphics they come up with? No thank u, i want to play a fun game (like 2010 DO not this cartonish joke).

  13. like i told you, he spend money on premium and event booster, and i can tell you he spend les money on the boosters than he did on the one year premium

    so you can get UFE with a max of 100 euros, and even non, if you just play like 1 year or so, and really, a year to be at the maximum there is in the game it's fairly well i would say.

    I have an hard time beliving u can get to ufe in a year without spending a cent (if not using a bot).
    I can get a very good 100MHz bandwid analog osciloscope for 100 euros so i guess i would never spend them in any game let alone DO.
     
  15. well if you can't get to UFE in a year, then you're doing something wrong

    I don't think its about how you really... play.. so to speak. I've been delving into a few threads about this subject actually.. the one thing that seems to be the most repettive is chance.. Now I do understand that things cant be an absolute guarantee in all aspects.. but there shouldn't be so much leeway as to feel as if there is no chance in attaining something. Now as I am currently... i have six lf4 and one Paritydrill. Granted... I have some stupid luck sometimes and its understandable to be feeling some type of way when you've spent almost twenty grand in uri trying to get one and not a single fruit to bear.

    Personally... the chances of certain aspects and specific loot should be increased slightly other than Havoc and Herc designs from gates.. noteably that was a wise move.

    1)What secret is there in this game?Pally/farm uridium to be able to spin gates,spin during special rewards weekends.Do your gates during 2x GG rewards.That's all.
    2)Do you realize that some people may not have the time/eagerness to do so?
    3)And:"If you want to make friends who are willing to help once in a while".Well that doesn't happen in any MMO game,why would people spend time helping a noob when they can earn more alone?
    100€ just for a game?i haven't seen a game that costs more than 59,99€.And NO,spending 1 year to get everything in a game is kinda ridiculous.
    (Mods/Admins i guess you can delete my complain about the forum rules but can you delete THIS archived thread too?)

    "you're doing something wrong"
    Like not spending money? :D
    Ok, if u can PROVE that u can get to ufe (aka minimum 21bio + full lf4 + AZ + full havok) in a year without paying at all nor using bot or bugabuse then i will belive.
    Moreover wile there are alot of tutorials about geting to ufe in cople of mounths with premium and rebate there is NONE doing so for free, thus we all would apreciate such a tutorial.
     
  19. 1. there are more to it that that, fx what aliens you shoot.
    2. well if you don't have time to play, this might not be the game for you. If you does not have the eager to play the game, well then it sertenlig not a game for you.
    3. well on the server i play on, i see multiple ppl helping smaller players everyday, maybe not byt shooting all the mobs for them but then with tips.

    well if you havn't seen a game that cost more than 100 euro, it's because your not looking. Just look at WoW ;)
     
  20. I know it's not quite without spendning money, but this is about 100 euros spend in the game nad it's some month since he hit the mark you said.
    https://int4.darkorbit.com/index.es?profile=BLQhX&profileCheck=MAjRv&lang=da

    so with about 4 month more to go, i would say you could have gotten what you gain from spendning those 100 euro
