Feedback for 2022 Winter Event

Hello Space Pilots,

Please provide your constructive feedback here for the 2022 Winter Event.

Your DarkOrbit Team

 

Yay! Thank you, @Oddessey ! I'm so excited!

My wish list for the Frozen Labyrinth, based on the last couple of years:

-The countdown clock telling when the next spawn is, doesn't count down. At least mine hasn't in the past two seasons. The only time it updates is when I jump to a different map.
-The announcement announcing where the synk is, is out of sync with the actual map it's in. The announcement is 0-3, but the maps are labeled 1-4, or vice versa. So when it announces it's in Cygni 2, it's one off. It's actually in Cygni 3. Very confusing for new players.
-A new title for the top 10 players would have been nice, I see it's the same this year as in years past.

 

Spectrum for 30 BPK, shameless and disgusting
Lesser ugrade modules were made 20% more expensive compared to last 2 BP, they weren't really worth the BPK before either, way to screw newer players hoping to get module materials.
the only desirable rewards from labyrinth are limited to 3 players who spend most on their gear,
[REMOVED]

 

Another well written FAQ; NOT..

New Unstable Modules: XU02 series
An XU02 series unstable modules that gives a boosted chance to get the Solaris Plus, Solace Plus, Pusat Plus, Hecate Plus, Hammerclaw Plus, Spearhead Plus, Citadel Plus, Goliath Plus, and Liberator Plus.

So you have a 1 in 75 chance of getting an upgrade module to suit a ship you actually use AND a small (unknown RNG based) chance of that module having good attributes.

I wonder if I can top the last BP, 14 modules crafted - 6 of them for Spearhead, not one for a ship I use.

 

Same old boring out dated npcs, no new ideas at all, have seen tons of new ideas in this forum, but all this greedy compAny wants is £$ for stupid packs. NO

 

Overall good event, seems to be exactly the same as previous years. Spectrum in battle pass seems pretty weird choice, would be more worth it just to craft it in assembly and some other ship would have been better there. I hope that next year you would bring birthday gate back, not skoll gate but an real birthday gate like in old days. I dont even ask for good rewards for it, I just want it to be interesting and fun activity to do.

 

VIP shop, trading resources for other items like mods and some harder (slower) to get resources, good idea, of course BP timed it and put it behind a paywall, yet another dirty psychological trick to get the foot in the door and get vulnerable players addicted to paying, I'm utterly disgusted

 

I have waited all year for an Orcus to go on Battlepass. I have around 20 mods for it. Please add one soon.

 

Today, on the GA1 server, after the game restart at 8:30am LST, the synk never came back . The line in the FL icon which is supposed to announce the respawn totally disappeared, and there were no in game announcements that it had spawned. So, if it did, no one knew when or where.

 

Bigpoint 20th Anniversary<

• 10x WIZ-X rockets (we already have thousands)
• 25x Extra Energy (WHAT A JOKE)
• 100x R-IC3 (MORE?)
• 100x Polychromium (OBSOLETE)
• 2x Indoctrine Oil! (SMH)
• Whom ever is doing this obviously has NO idea about the game whatsoever, pointless creating a thread as this one will do, ergo all part of the seasonal festivities. (ban away)

So far NO good, not 1 mod for the ship i'm using, seems this BP was designed around forcing players' to open their wallet again for the VIP exchange, ergo crap mods from BP
Edited: 27/12/2022< not a single mod for my current plus ship

 

Had to let myself get killed in astral gate yesterday as my ship wouldn't fire had lock but ship just sat there looking dumb, even clicked the x 2 times and restarted the gate ship still wouldn't fire!!!

 

This happened again in the Frozen Labyrinth today:

The line in the Frozen Labyrinth icon which is supposed to announce the respawn of the synk totally disappeared, and there were no in game announcements that it had spawned, giving a location. So, if it did spawn, no one knew when or where.

Can you please fix this? Not sure if it's tied to the server restart.

Is anyone even listening?

The respawn clock timer, not the icon, disappears after the server restart at 8:30 am LST. The in-game announcement, announcing the synk location doesn't announce its location, either. So I'm thinking the synk doesn't come back after the restart, and it looks like it's going to be a chronic problem.

R-310 rockets in the FL booty boxes, really dudes?

As always, the icetron mines zap HP well beyond the wake zone when they explode.

Are you ever going to fix any of these issues? You've had years to do it.

Hello...hello...hello...hello....Is there anybody out there listening?
