DBO Classic uses the original Taiwanese client in order to maintain the highest fidelity to the original experience, but with several enhancements to ensure a seamless gaming experience across various operating systems.
One of the key improvements we've made is fixing freezes that occur on modern operating systems like Windows 10. By resolving these issues, players can enjoy uninterrupted gameplay regardless of the machine running the game.
In addition, we've thoroughly tested the game's compatibility with Linux by utilizing wine. This ensures that players using Linux-based systems can also enjoy the game without any technical hurdles.
Experience the entire game world in English with a comprehensive localization effort. Thanks to the dedicated team at OpenDBO, we've achieved a 100% translation of all in-game content into English.
From quest dialogues to item descriptions, every aspect of the game has been meticulously translated to ensure a seamless and immersive experience for English-speaking players.
You can find the source code of their localization project on OpenDBO's GitHub repository, where the amazing work of their team is available for review and contribution.

In the original Dragon Ball Online MMO, players could passively earn "NetPy Points" by simply being logged in, receiving 4 points every 15 minutes. However, we've decided to make a significant adjustment to this feature for DBO Classic.
On our DBO Classic server, instead of passive point accumulation, players now have an interactive way to earn NetPy Points. By defeating monsters in the game world, players can obtain these points. Each monster defeated grants the player 1 point, with the chance of receiving none or even doubling the points earned. This chance is influenced by the level difference between the player and the monster they defeat.
This adjustment not only adds excitement to gameplay but also discourages players from feeling the need to stay connected continuously just to collect points. It promotes a more balanced and enjoyable experience for all players.
As a fan project, we understand the importance of non-mandatory donations to support all needed infrastructure, but we also believe in ensuring that all players have access to in-game items without needing to spend real money. To achieve this balance, we've implemented a unique feature.
Each time a NetPy Point is generated through gameplay, there's a very small chance of also generating a Cash Point. These Cash Points can be used in the cash shop to purchase items, providing players with an opportunity to acquire premium content through regular gameplay.
This feature promotes inclusivity and fairness, allowing all players to enjoy the full range of in-game content, regardless of their ability or willingness to make monetary contributions.
