  1. Hello, all! So over the years we've all seen so much change in this game. Some of it for the better, some of it.. not so much. I'm just making this post to ask what the rumors are of what is to come over the years. Will they ever bring back jackpot battles? I feel the game lost a lot of users after making that decision.. wouldn't even have to be 10k.. just something for the players to fight for and try and justify spending money on the game. Also, I saw that there was a merge with some of the servers. Would they ever consider just having like.. 2-3 servers so the ping isn't ridiculous, and expand each map to compensate for there being more users on each map?

    Just trying to get a feel of whats been talked about since I've been going the past years. Hope to get some feedback soon :D
     
  2. They 100 confirmed jackpot will never ever come back. Good riddance in my opinion, but I kind of wish they did so we at least had more players again.

    Server merges: the big/global servers which were mediocre at best successes(they were already super active anyways), every other servers were pretty much underwhelming for most part because half their population were ran out by cheaters already, but the USA server... Jesus H. Christ, well it's completely dead now and just as dead as before the merge so it was a total disaster on that front. With that being said I seriously doubt they would ever merge another server again.

    Now they added huge paywalls to the game, you need to basically bot or spend loads of money. An example of that being these new "battlepasses" for 200k uri to get rewards that were COMPLETELY FREE before this was implemented... let's see what else now you can basically buy anything you want in the events in the shop now you don't even have to participate. Cheats are basically accepted now, they won't tell you that but yeah you won't get banned matter of fact people were rewarded with 1 week 100% boosters for botting a year ago...

    New client soon that's underwhelming because it's literally just a custom Chrome browser with an insecure Flash Player installed and since Flash Player is no longer supported, anyone with a simple expertise in computers can just hack into your ship or even the game or even your computer because there are no more security updates for it.

    In my opinion I think that's when Darkorbit dies because all the people with a brain and that care about their information won't download that for a million dollars.

    I mean I can go on all day but I don't care anymore. Before all of this new paywall stuff I just didn't have time to build my ship but now I literally can't build it or play the freaking game unless I bot or spend hundreds of dollars.

    Chrome Browser with insecure flash player Now that is scary, that alone could kill the game overnight.

  4. Yeah I remember when I was really young I used to play a game that ran on flash, one day someone hacked into that flash player on the website and edited it to where if you even hovered, not clicked just hovered above on anything that is ran by flash, like an image or animation, it would automatically redirect you to a phishing website and basically take ur info.

    Yeah no thanks, hard pass from me.
     
  5. So.... instead of going to an insecure flash player, why not just make the game downloadable from steam or something? Is next year expected to be the death of DO?

    Please add some rewards to new event like Cubiportal and etc.. long time ago we cant get it
     
  7. The game is dying, it isnt worth anymore to even spend a penny if you arent close to UFE or above. Bigpoint just tries to give everything with money so that they can make the most of a dying game.
     
  8. Damn i just bought prem and rebate so i could atleast do something like gates or upgrades... bought prem to get that shiny frost solace thats why i spent money... looks like its gonna be a waste if they don't do something next year.
     
  9. They said on Discord that Darkorbit's code is too old to convert to HTML or any downloadable form and it would take too much time and work.

    Like I said I don't see DO going past the client.
