[Comrademoco - A Fond Farewell]

I intend to play until Arthritis gets me so here comes the obligatory: Can I have your stuff?

[The single arguement against a wipe...]

I understand the OP and if they would wipe I would still play but all my constructs only a few would be built again because me already burned from mining

[Talemai LOCKDOWN]

I smell a big party tonight on the Talemai pvp zone

[Post patch hitbox vs. core sizes]

Well too late now it's out. Yes, the only drawback is that if you make a very small L ship it does not have too much hull or elements to sponge incoming dmg.

[Post patch hitbox vs. core sizes]

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

[[Discussion] ◇ Core Units can no longer be restored using scrap at all.]

I have a ship xs size that is like a Taxi to get from a to b swift. That thing while being a good ship when I park it sometimes it starts to dance like crazy and destroys the core. Things like this happen all the time in different Scenarios I think this change will leave a sour and bitter feeling when it happens again.

[Macht das wirklich jemanden Spaß?]

Lustig ist das du es langweilig findest und ich kann gar nicht mehr zu meinen anderen MMO zurück. Das DU Sonnensystem ist riesig und es lauern nicht künstliche gefahren sondern echte Spieler die dir dein Schiff und deine Erze wegnehmen wollen. Du baust alles mögliche und kannst kreativ sein. Ich denke mir eine DU build ist Spiegel der Seele des Macher. Wenn Du einer grossen Gemeinschaft dazu kommst wirds lustig mit dem ganzem Drama und ist für mich besser als eine Serie mit Intrigen auf Netflix zu schauen. Das spiel ist in seinen Anfängen keine Frage aber die Spielzeit für die ich bezahlt habe hat sich schon mehrfach wieder gut gemacht.

[The point of more space engines if max speed stays 29.999 kmh?]

More Engines more Acceleration. Acceleration is important for evade pvp with no warp. Acceleration is important for pvp to get at target.

Maybe so, but it's definitely a heck of a lot easier than building a real looking space ship that resembles as such with true creativity. I guarantee it takes a lot less time to create a stupid cube meta ship than a creative ship, and once you have said cube meta ship, you just blueprint and redeploy after being destroyed. That's infinitely faster than creating a second new creative ship that's different than the first. So your argument is mute and not helpful to this discussion, as you are not going to convince anyone that it will sustain the future of this game for PVPers or Builders. Period.

And me not defending the cubes I can appreciate a well-built ship in DU. I would like those weapons to get locked to core sizes and that we would get shields so that other builds get a fighting chance. People in PvP build right now to win a fight that is the fact. Last Weekend I built such a cube and flew it and got bored out of it that ugliness so I return to my non Meta ships. But to keep it short I agree with you that this situation is not sustainable in the long run even when I say a good cube to make is not an easy task.

This thread isn't about safe zones. There is already a thread for that, with much ?

 

This is about building, or more specifically, spending the time to build things above and beyond the most basic flying brick needed to do pvp or travel through pvp.

 

There is zero skill involved in making a deathcube.

How I said a good cube is in the placement not in the design. It is not that easy.

It's hard to make "promises" about a design detail when you're making it up as you go.

 

They don't even know what they're going to do with Alioth now after 6 years of development, so I doubt they knew enough when they made "promises" to take them seriously...

 

 

NQ shared its vision with the Backers long time ago. Now you come here and want to bend all in carebear fashion

[The Point of Designing a Cool Ship?]

I want safe zones to disapear , but Allioth and moons. It is what was promised to us I hope NQ delivers that. 

[The Point of Designing a Cool Ship?]

The OP thinks to build an XS Death Cube is very easy but it's not. true from the outside, it might look primitive but the trick is in the right placement of the elements to cramp all these large stuff inside that relative small building area to be effective. There will always be a Meta and you as a designer will always have to make compromises that the craft does what it is supposed to do and was it was intended with it. Right now PvP builders build to be effective in this way but later on shield bubbles might be added for lets say break a bit current Meta. NQ could also restrict weapons to core size in xs core only go xs weapon and so on. The investment a player or a group does on a big ship should have benefits not like is now just a bad thing to fly large. For now PvP is avoidable and if you want to show of a build that is for expo then why fly it to the pvp zone where the only guys going to see it are they sitting on a gunner seat aiming at you?

[Possible solutions for current XS core w/ L railgun meta, doesn't require different lockon ranges to be removed]

If I had to vote I vote in the removal of the lock on range completely. If a player invests in a larger core he should get a benefit from his endeavors. make XS and S work in groups like a fighter squadron that they are effective. 

[Kill reports]

Well there will be the new notification system coming.

[Congrats to Yamamushi (and possible feedback on Novaquark Employee Policy)]

I am happy for Yamamushi and wish him a good time with NQ. When I was a newbie in DU he helped me a lot, will be always grateful to him for that.
