wow this game is crap, work your way up to a decent ship like a normal player, then get shot down by some douch who found his daddies credit card and dumped 200$ dollars into the game and got the best everything the first day of playing and dosn't even need any skill. Now it's pay us real money or lose your ship. Thanks for wasting my time.

You'd think that a gaming website with a comment section filled with people whining about pay to win would influence the devs. They might as well just make the game itself cost money to play.

ugh, collecting and trading palladium. Its a hassle, you need to get it from either a map, or a kill. Then when u get 15, u cam go to 5-2 and sell it there at the pirate station

Guide to becoming good in Darkorbit: get your skylab up a lot, its a big moneymaker, then get some drones and a better ship, untill u have 8 drones (any kind) and a goli. After that you still focus on skylab, but go to the uppers, the things there give lots of money, ep, and uridium, i hope again that this helps (P.S. do not attempt to go into the uppers and fight strong creatures without a vengeance ship or higher ^.^)

Actually Germany has created some amazing game companies, sadly Bigpoint was off to a great start than just ruined it.

As with so many of these games the developers have massively under-invested in the infrastructure to run it. At peak times (and even at off-peak times sometimes) the lag makes the game completely unplayable.

Such a pay-to-win game. If you go to shop, all the good items are expensive and you need to pay REAL money for them. Also, there's always a big overpowered enemy ship in the first 2 maps killing all the newbies. About to reach....the portal..... *Gets owned by some retard* OH SERIOUSLY? The repair isn't free and you have to pay uridium or else you can't play. I read somewhere in the forums that 2000 players paid about 1k euros each for some special drones which made Bigpoint about 2 mil. dollars in four days! I've played their other games and they really only care about the money, not the players and there's not much you can do in Bigpoint games unless you pay.

I regret spending so much on this game. Really is bad, bigpoint's all about the money. They don't care about us players.

Nothing against Germans because my niece is German. But they make
horrible games. This happens to be one of them. Unfortunately they
give a lot of sway to the wallet warriors who play their games and the
newbies never have a chance. I see they disabled pvp in X1 maps back
in 2010...Way too late now.

This is a game where long time players agree that admins like to bully players and issue chat bans because they get a "kick out of it"
I was online when one week chat bans were issued to new players for asking game advice in general chat.
I WILL not promote any company or game that allows admins they appointed to behave in such a manor.

And mods are here to help. YEAH RIGHT

It stops being fun because of overpowered players.
They are the ones that ruin the game for new players.
Can't even complete a missions because of constant ambush attacks.
I gave up after playing for a month because there is no real player
protection except for a cloaking device. But even that is a toss up
if some players have the gear to see cloaked ships.

The game works beautifuly. If you would take the "Only fun when you pay us" aspect awayt,this would make game of the year,TRUST ME! :D The origonality if great but the first 2 ships in the first level blasting newbies should be moved to like the 3rd or fourth so we can get to recourses that arnt terrible.

The reason for this is because, in the primary conflict between Attacker and Target, the invader (Attacker) shot first; Target did not attack, and the scripting uses this pacifist reaction to protect them because 3-1 is where players experience the very beginning of their journey on DO. However, in the second conflict between Attacker and Defender, Defender struck first, forfeiting his pacifist status and thus losing protection from enemy fire. This protection makes sure that players in the X-1 map of their company are protected from being totally owned by FE* players who would outgun them so badly, it's not even FUNNY. ___ Otherwise, merciless player killers would constantly swarm home maps racking up kills off of players who are defenseless against even the second weakest CPU enemy. The level of overkill is truly unimaginable when you think about it. _________ The petition would ask Bigpoint to apply this scripting to the X-2 maps as well.

Note for People on kong: If you make an account, then dont go on it for a while, you will have to go play on www.darkorbit.com to actuall play the game. It may suggest using another username, but it wont work.

I'm in a bit of disbelief that this scam of a game made it on the "new games" list somehow. Obviously money was involved. Screw it, I'll just say it, they used bribery to game the system. I'm not willing to take a look at what they changed due to how offensive the original was; there is nothing to salvage here. The idea wasn't badly implemented; there wasn't room for improvement. The game itself started from a foundation of pay-to-win and nothing can change that. If they really wanted to distance from the scam pay-to-win that came before, they would have just created a new game that wasn't designed for that model.

Yup, still the same old Dark Orbit I remember. Where you always have to be on the look out for those better equipped players that kill you in just a few hits. I guess they kill you to make their ego bigger or something, because being a lower ranked/under equipped player can be frustrating. If you want to play a space sim game where you won't get cooked in just a few hits by some big players, look elsewhere.

lol this drek is back again? It's a shame, b/c this could have been a halfway decent game IF you could leave the starter map without being turned to glitter. But then again it is Bigpoint who have made a career out of creating seal clubbing simulators.

This game is P2W. As i know this company's games are also in this category. Well,sad thing. Along with gameplay and such. 1/5.
