DarkOrbit Developer(s) Bigpoint Publisher(s) Bigpoint Platform(s) Web browser Genre(s) MMOG Mode(s) Multiplayer DarkOrbit is a massively multiplayer online game developed by Bigpoint Games. The game is set in outer space, where players control a spaceship to battle against non-player characters and other players. It is a two-dimensional flash game with around 1 million registered users, including several hundred thousand active ones.[1] DarkOrbit is one of Bigpoint's most popular games.[2] Contents 1 History 2 Gameplay 2.1 Rank 2.2 Economy 2.3 Combat 2.4 Clans 2.5 Skylab 2.6 Pilot Bio 3 Special Events 3.1 Jackpot Battle 3.2 Team Death Match 4 Community 5 Reception 6 See also 7 References 8 External Links History DarkOrbit was released on July 18, 2007. Gameplay At the start of the game, the player chooses between three companies: Venus Resources Unlimited (VRU), Earth Industries Corporation (EIC), and Mars Mining Operations (MMO).[3] Players are given a short tutorial before being teleported to the home map. The object of the game is to gain wealth and power both individually and for the company. Rank Users are ranked using a mathematical formula based on a variety of factors, including level, honor, ship type, aliens destroyed, and more. The lowest rank is "Basic Space Pilot" and the highest rank is General (with only one in each company). Players level up by gaining experience through fighting aliens/ships and doing quests. Each level requires twice as much experience as the level before it. Higher-level players gain access to more maps up until level 17, when all maps are unlocked. Honor is acquired in a way similar to experience and allows players to sell resources for higher prices. Shooting down other players from one's own company will lower honor and overall rank. Economy DarkOrbit uses two types of currencies: credits and uridium. Uridium is more valuable and harder to obtain. Some types of equipment and ammunition can be purchased using credits, but the most elite items can only be bought with uridium.[1] However, for some of those elite items, there is an option to bid using credits. This auction system, in which players will not be refunded credits if they lose, is used to control inflation of credits.[4] Combat DarkOrbit utilizes a real-time combat system. In combat, a variety of weapons can be used to destroy aliens and other players. These include laser cannons, laser ammunition, rockets, rocket launchers, and mines. Players need to click on their target to lock on before they can begin shooting. Successfully destroying an enemy will result in a "cargo box" containing ore being dropped that the player can take. If the destroyed ship is a player, it will cost 500 uridium to repair the ship. Players start of the game with a Phoenix, a free but easily destroyed ship. As the player advances in the game, he/she can buy better ships. There are a total of ten different ships that can be bought, with The Goliath and the Vengeance typically being regarded as the best ships.[5] Ships can be equipped with a variety of items, including shield generators, speed engines, laser cannons, rocket launchers, ammunition, and many other accessories. Clans Players can join a clan if they pay 50,000 credits. Benefits of joining a clan include help from clan mates and clan payouts in the form of credits. However, most clans have a clan tax (between 1% and 5%) that is collected daily. Clans can help players compete against rivals.[1][6] Skylab The Skylab is a system is used to produce and refine ores. These ores can then be sent to the player's ship and either sold for credits or equipped to enhance the ship.[7] Pilot Bio The Pilot Bio is a relatively recent addition to DarkOrbit. Each pilot point can be used to acquire certain abilities that help the player in battle or other game functions. A player can have up to fifty pilot points in their bio. When certain skills are maxed out, they generate special effects, such as brighter lasers, rocket trails, etc. [8] Special Events DarkOrbit has special events from time to time that can give players special rewards. Jackpot Battle The Jackpot battle is an event in which all players who sign up fight each other until only one ship is left surviving. The winning player will receive real cash (up to £10,000)[9] from DarkOrbit, based on how many "Jackpot dollars" they had. Jackpot dollars can be found in bonus boxes that are scattered across space. Team Death Match The Team Death Match is an event that in which ten ships from one company work together to kill ten ships from an enemy company. The winning team receives rewards at the end. Community The official DarkOrbit forums are powered by vBulletin. The forums provide a place for DarkOrbit to announce updates and events as well as a place for players to ask questions, discuss the game, and give suggestions. In addition, DarkOrbit's support can be contacted via email by players wishing to report a bug or make a complaint. Reception Joystiq called it an "insane shooter" with a mix of Asteroids and EVE Online.[10] See also Bigpoint Games References ^ a b c Robota, Damian. "Kostenfalle Online-Spiele".
