Played this game a ton. I remember getting bills for $150 a month, when it was on Gamestorm. -DP-EOSR. Had a MVP tag for having most kills in a clan match. Great game, before people ruined it, with all the hacking and lagging. Anyways, fairly simple game to run. NO reason Mystics doesn't have it up and running today. I'd play it!
i was a high ranking player when tha game shut down and had made some good friends and even found old buddies playing it i played it from aol there is a game called dark orbit it makes too many people pissed off though and there are too many hackers playing it wish this game was back so bad.
Exiles of Chiron is a new top-down, multiplayer space shooter with customizable weapons, ships, hulls, and shields, and more. If you miss SOD, then you might love EOC!
The Alpha version started up last night, as well as a Kickstarter project.

For old time's sake, a Top Ten list: 1. BugLdr/ArtofMonkey (some random SST player that came out of nowhere and pwned) 2. TaKnemdwn 3. MasterG 4. DrSomewhere (no clue who he was, but I'm guessing a well known player under another name perhaps) 5. Beck 6. Psyphi 7. phantomlord (Kript's husband, a huge douche, but a great player) 8. TaKnemall 9. Soul (would be higher, but confirmed cheater... still one of the best ever, even w/o speed hack) 10. Shz (see above)
wow! those names bring back memories! I was Hermit in SD from GS to EA but skipped AOL...good times and good memories...i would pay $100 a month to get this game back for sure!
SDO fans may wanna look into Space Pirates and Zombies. Single-player only, but flight controls are similar and its a lot of fun so far.
It's nearly been 10 years now since SDO's shutdown. I was there at the end as Eclipso(HF). Kind of surprising this or something very similar hasn't sprung up as a F2P game. Seems like it'd be perfect for that model of play.
@girt81 it is back!!!!!!!!!!!!! been playing 2 days straight its hidden so ea dont sue darkorbit look it up youll love email me a ty letter firewire0000000@gmail
I miss this game... ~=Savarak=~ SDO Champion of the First (and only :( :( :( ) all-Gamestorm tournament :P It just wasn't the same after EA took over and then AOL and all the cheaters came on board
Man I so miss this game. I was one of the game OPs on the gamestorm version. My OP name was Cyanide. Also played as PrinceKain on the red team. A game like this seems like it wouldn't be too hard for a programmer to replicate. Only problem is would it have any kind of audience except those of us that remember it fondly.
Someone needs to find out who the person is responsible for this travesty on E.A.'s behalf so I can track this person down and punch them in the face. Silent Death Online was by far still to this day one of my absolute most favorite games to play. So far the closest replica's to SDO are ZeroVector and StarPort. Since this event occurred I have thus vowed my undying vengeance on E.A. may they rot in hell.
Reminds me of my AOL 4.0-7.0, 3am-er day's; loading up the noisy 56.6k Compaq presario for Clan wars and kill fests... Good times. I'd be interested to see what my monthly AOL bills were around that time.
Salamander was my favorite ship because it looked like a bird with a back-pack, and Sext-Blatgun was my favorite weapon; auto win the lag shots.
OMG i miss this game so much too! spent many hours playing this game and its clan wars!! i wish they would bring it back just like it was in the day! and for house Tokugawa ruled with $GK$.... (the Golden Knights) and all the best to SD players!! from JEEPs :o)
Back when I wasn't caught up in my own business. Starting "SMART VITALS" , I used to play on Game STorm ALL THE TIME!!! GS WAS THE Greatest Game ever made MAN!!!! I miss Silent death, and those days, to death. Thats when going online was fun and exciting. Now it's like the world is going under. Online isn't the same anymore. But it's great now too, but not so much more than it will ever be. Now everyone is trying to run the world with the internet. Blame them.
augh man i miss this game so damn much it's not even funny.
i wish they'd bring it back. I JUST WISH THEY DID!! I'd play it like crazy as i did before. this game was a perfect classic. entertainment that can last for hours and not degrade in any aspect ever. i want this game back :(((
I played this back when it was on Gamestorm. On a 28.8 modem. Tokugawa (yellow) all the way! We were always the smallest, and it was a great community.
I think EA still has the rights. It'd be great if they released the software, since it's obvious they'll never do anything with it.
I totally miss this game. So many wasted hours lol. Used to =AT=Danil and TC for green if anybody remembers those clans... does anyone know if they are going to bring this game back???
I remember DC. I was Jezebelle. Had a Red star also named Kriptkeeper. Was on the AT team for green named xXSIRENXx lol Still check back once in a while to see if anyone picked the game up. I would be so addicted again. Miss you all who played!!!!
Trudy! I remember you - I was in "AT" too - I remember being kicked out by Dilenium to make way for you after persuading you to rejoin the clan, without realising we were already full!
@trudytaylor71 I remember kriptkeeper! haha. I think you let me kill you once when I was just a beginner and it gave me so many points. Geek nostalgia.
We need this game back .I've been looking for something that good since THERE IS NOTHING.That was the only game I ever payed to play.If it ever comes back sign me up
Damn EA shutted it down. This would've been the best space shooting multiplayer online game I've ever played than Subspace. Let's help bring it back! I played this after having thanksgiving dinner and it was so fun. I missed those old days when it was on AOL.
man This was my favorite game... EA Sports took it over for a while back in the late 90's and you had to pay a monthly subscription for it. Then they dropped it and I don't know what happened to it... Go red team!! haha
If you like this game (which i really did a long time ago), Get Half Life 2, then get the mod ETERNAL SILENCE for it. it's kind of the same idea but wayyyy better graphics and you get to go inside bases and what not.
