[UI] Double Rewards Day (UCB-100)

Double Rewards Day is the most balancing mechanism added to Dark Orbit in recent years giving non paying players a chance to compete with wallet warriors. Round of applause for whoever had this idea because it was brilliant. Round of jeers for whoever thought it was a good idea to not double x4 in the event anymore because that was stupid. I think the old saying goes "If it ain't broke don't fix it". Essentially, this game has become significantly more fun now that PvP is not so one sided and new players have a chance to compete with old players in a relatively short amount of time. It's as if someone opened a window in an old dusty basement allowing fresh air to circulate. Now that window has been shut half way since x4 is no longer being effected by the event. To get to the point here UCB-100 is the fuel for PvP, therefore if it is doubled, the amount of activity on the server and player to player interactions will increase. Personally I have not had this much fun or seen this much activity on a server since 2008. I even learned some basic editing skills and put together a video to highlight some of the best times we've had here in the past half year. Please bring back doubled x4 during Double Rewards Day. If this is a monetary issue then include double x4 during Double Rewards Day in Box Doubler. That way sales will increase and you will keep your player fan base happy

 

What does everyone think about this?

 

I agree with this

 

Agree

 

I'm glad you guys agree. Hopefully the developers will take note of this suggestion if enough players voice their opinion.

 

Dude... we all agree, duhh...

 

The topic is not so one sided. Some aspects that wasn't mentioned and worth considering:
more x4->more hunting for noobs
everyone having a lot of x4=noone having x4
And some players kind of abused the double x4 in hades. (maybe in kuiper as well but I'm not sure about it) They shot everything with x4 and still generated a lot of x4, rank points and uridium. Everyone can understand that it's not a healthy game state.

So I partly agree. There should only be double x4 in gamma, epsilon, delta, zeta and kappa gates in my opinion.

 

I agree with this except I don't understand how everyone having x4 means nobody has x4 and the game being in an unhealthy state because of Hades farming. I've done 38 Hades and have only received LF4's twice. At least when UCB-100 was doubled it gave the gate a purpose, now no one does Hades anymore. I guess it's just there for cosmetic purposes. 2 / 38 = 5.26%

 

Good idea!!

 

You only agree because you want more UCB, don't you? ^^

Agree.

 

It feels likes now the only thing thats is doubled is honor and some other doubled goodies. One thing i need on both my east 1 and GA3 ships is x4 ammo. We pay alot of uri for our gates so the free players that take the time needs a bonus on ammo. Even the people that spends money needs a bonus. BRING BACK DOUBLE X4!

It seems like they do this to all gates. I need 1 havoc on my east 1 ship and the last double gg's i did 5 zetas without a havoc. it seems as if your chances are lowered when your that close. 38 hades and on got an LF4 twice the chances needs to be raised a tad bit. think about it some of people had to 50 or more kappas to get their hercs 30+ zetas to get their havocs

 

You're right
