it's been a while since I last posted something here, so here we go.
A few days ago I remembered how our beloved Uridium Wars got closed by Bigpoint because of the botters on that server, and how everyone has been opening private servers since then.
Personally I have only seen one server that has some real chances of getting anywhere near the 2010 version of DO, I'm talking about Snowy's server. Most servers (most of them, not really all) are based on the Azure or Icon8 projects (which suck pretty bad), and with help from experienced coders around, everyone now can have a private server. The number of requests I get on Skype every week is just creepy, I can't tell if they are asking for help or if they are pedophiles
Alright, so let's get to the point: what's the second worst thing that happened to DO? Wait for it...Bots! They have the power to destroy a game just by pressing the start button, which is pretty amazing.
Since a good server has good developers and good developers can catch bots with a little determination, the only way to destroy horrible servers is creating bots that kill ships.
I have already started coding a bot that will be able to run on most servers, which means that in about 2 weeks we will have already got rid of some servers.
During the first days of this bot, it will have no licensing system, but I plan on adding that in the future
This bot will:
Kill ships
Use the ammo you choose
Optionally, use RSB and SAB
Reconnect if killed
Have a good "brain", will know when to run or continue fighting
Steal kills
Collect boxes and kill NPC's (if the server has them)
Have a wide variety of languages for different people of different nationalities -> Translators needed
Project name:
This being said, I wish you all good luck.

I don't see the point of using bots on private server except for pushing rank.
Then you speak like every server which is running sucks as hell, of course except snowy's server. I don't use icon8 project, or azure, and my server is running well. I guess, my server is the one being the most online (uptime average of 24h), and I don't have a lots of bug.
So please, stop saying every server is a ****, except snowy's server.
Well i think it's a good idea against those leechers Then they need to find someone who gives them something against this bot which hopefully never will happen
We waited for years about private servers...
The first time someone released a semi-private server was awesome (OfflineDO by deHackerzOwn)
After there was xokixoki with ICON8 Project, coming from nowhere but was a "revolution"
Then come Azure, a good alternative to ICON8 Project
After all these things, I thought developers would work together by releasing some source code or just make an official epvp server but instead of this we have :
- People like you destroying our only way to play the good old DarkOrbit
- No help between developpers, designers etc...
- A "war" between private servers developpers
This is the reason why there is no really good servers right now, because instead of 'all developpers vs bigpoint' we have '1v1v1v1vPrivateServerBOTSv1v1v1v1v1vBigpoint'
THANKS.
(What's next ? Are you going to acknowledge that you're from Bigpoint ? (it's not an statement, just a question))
Also, the only reason you do a bot for private servers it's the fact you aren't skilled enough to make a safe bot for the real DarkOrbit.
