Cyborg will get some fixes cuz there has been some bugs.
Theres some big rebalancing project/patch going by OP.
There will be a beta testing group made of few DO players.
There will be new NPCs, GGs and storylines.
They start working hard on server merges and client.
OP will design some event by himself only.
UBA is broken, its not priority to fix it for them.
They are testing server merge script to move players on servers.
61 servers merged to 20 servers, should be sorted by languages and timezones.
They trying to fix connection issues.
Hangar issues are caused by database errors because of 2much data which has to be checked.
They working on a fix actively.
**note: I think they want to stack items so it loads faster and dont have to load so much data.
Browser version will be available even when the client is there as long as its possible and useful.
Yet the client works only with Windows, maybe they will do something for Mac but not now.
Bots:
There should be more news in 1 month - 1,5 month about bots.
Seems like they gonna do some actions agains bots in the near future.
Moth formation will be "balanced" (reduced the %)
Admins arent alowed to shoot players on normal servers.
Testing group:
There will be an application form you will fill with infos to join "soon".
Only requirement: Have an DO account and play fairly regularly, know English or use google translate.
The application process should start next week.
You can visit them in Hamburg and Baracus will drink a beer with u and go on a lunch and u can talk with em,
they told they are opened to players to visit them but they cant let them into the main headquarter.
CBS base prices are still wrong on few servers so that should get fixed.
No BO3 shields coming up :c
No skylab/seprom upgrade or updates, maybe after server merges.
There should be more info about when server merges will come in September.
Not even DO team know what time server merges will come live yet.
Testing timeline of server merges is untill September.
Server merges wont be in September but later tho.
Nerfing Tartarus will come as well with much more balancing stuff.
PVP will again become more important with server merges by the time.
Rank/leaderboard system:
Old one system will not go away but
There will be another 1 running dynamic paralel system with different scores.
When: "Soon" (After server merges).
Building GGs in crafting/assembly might become a thing one time (after server merges).
It hasnt been discussed much and is not a priority for them yet.
Skill tree might have some "good" changes/upgrades one time but not in near future, far in future.
No more features and implementions for "revenue only" they want to make everything useful not put useless things into the game.
Save ship configurations should be possible but later, they want it implemented in game a lot and should come.
Merges and client should solve some bugs and issues.
Scrap in shop and Rsb in assembly - no info when or if it will come again yet but there should be way more ways to get it.
They want us to leave a feedback in the anonymous community feedback
link:
They wanna make more ways to gain each item and rare items in game but they dont want to make too many ways cuz that would loose the value of the items.
They have to take care about game economy with every step they do.
Cubikon respawn time should be reduced or there should be more cubes, when the server merge come, 5 minutes for cubikon spawn is too long.
Psycondric is not working in DO team anymore as he used to :c
There will be some 1v1, 3v3 and 5v5 arenas but they need to make it fair which needs a lot of effort and time.
PET attack event is coming back again but is couple months far.
There should be a change about test servers:
They will give items that are important for the test on the accounts but once testing is done the acc equipment/acc will be deleted
so it doesnt make much mess with 2many pointless items,
this way there will also be more focus on the real thing that needs to be tested and not just people who want to fly on UFE ship with no testing.
Its annoying for them when people go on test server and do GalaxyGates instead of testing things.
New player experience is horrible (Baracus and OPs word), they want to change it and make it more friendly and easier for new users (after server merge).
There might be some more assembly/crafting things connected with logfiles/logdiscs.
Client is pretty smooth, 0 lag for whole hour OP playing.
