  1. IMO safe zones will be good to have, but I have a feeling that some of the most dangerous space to travel in will be in the areas surrounding them. Sure, our org will probably try to get our hands on one, but I won't cry if that doesn't happen.
  2. Nope, not yet. I might put contact info on the server description so whoever is running those bases can find me. Just won't have time to mess with it until this weekend.
  3. Just that I can build a ship with voxels that will fly blows LM in its current state away, let alone in Alpha.
  4. Having worked with voxels that are about the same size, I can say I will be disappointed if we have to use voxels for signs. Even the smallest text you can make with them ends up making huge signs. So none of my builds ever had signs because of that. Looked awful and broke immersion, big time. I understand if a prop isn't implemented right away. Of course, the game mechanics need to be tested first, but I would highly suggest the Devs put a prop(s) for this on their to-do-list for the future. A lot of folks will love them and will use them. And our settlements won't be cluttered up with giant voxel signs so they will look a LOT nicer.
  5. I like the billboatd idea. Probably make a few of them. But if implemented I'd suggest putting some limits on how many can be placed within a certain area. I played second life for a while and finally quit because the game became so ugly and annoying I couldn't stand to be there. Mostly it was the griefers who would buy up land next to yours and line the perimeter with offensive or annoying billboard ads. Mainly they just wanted your land. Might not be that big of an issue in this game as we players could take those out ourselves, unless of course it happens in a safe zone. I DO hope that we can have small signs for our shops and diisplay logos and names for our ships. I can already see the little marketplace I want to build and it will need a lot of signs to give it the look I want. Implementing a simple sign prop or two where we can put in text in a couple different cool fonts might take care of most of that though.
  6. You could say that. We got a hacker and I had to upload a backup from the day before. We weren't the only ones so a lot more servers over there are now pw protected. I just hope the other factions playing on the server were DU community people so they can contact us for the PW. I was looking forward to battle I knew was coming one day. Not sure what other options there are though.
  7. Hey guys. We have had to set a password on our Empyrion server. If you are one of the teams who have been locked out, just PM me the name of your faction and I'll send it to you. From now on, only DU community members will be let in (unless its a personal friend of a DU community member and THAT member contacts us). Sorry for the trouble, but it can't be helped.
  8. Thanks for the kind words guys! So glad you liked it! We're already planning the next episode :-)
  9. I think it's a good idea. I think that they should set it so that we could choose several options, like go to your home or the closest one, either free or paid. Might still be open for a bit of abuse, but if you have to go retrieve your body/backpack (or whatever) then it can't be used as a short cut to take home a bunch of resources or anything. No one is forced to use it, but it might be worth the cost if you don't have to go all the way back home. It could also be used as a strategy to get folks to come and visit your town. Free RN, and while you're here stop and have a bite and some buffs and maybe buy a new gun before you head out again.
  10. Hey guys! We have just released the first episode of our new comic. We posted it in the library. Here's that link: https://board.dualthegame.com/index.php?/topic/10088-new-comic-book-the-outfit-beginnings/ Enjoy :-)
  11. We are telling the story of the Outfit from the very beginning in our new comic book! Introducing The Outfit - Beginnings - Episode 1 We also thought this would be a great opportunity to help advertise for the Kickstarter. So please share freely as there are three different kickstarter ads in this episode and only ten days to go!! Many of our members had a hand in creating this comic. We hope you guys enjoy reading it as much as we enjoyed making it. https://goo.gl/zlJSlr
  12. Hey guys! We have a new member! WorthyofSong has applied to take our Master Engineer position! We now have only one Officer position left!! Welcome WorthyofSong!!
  13. Looks like a lot of fun! Hope it pans out for you. Can't wait to ride it :-)
  14. Nice banner! And I love that quote! I remember it from Starship Troopers though.
  15. Yeah, I think it will look much better with only one signature. Too many can clutter up the threads. Can't wait to see it :-)
  16. Oh! I just noticed that you added us to your banner RedCap! Thanks!!
  17. Everyone, please welcome Wizardoftrash to the Outfit! Happy to have you aboard!!
  18. Looks like we're going to try to do an unofficial game night tonight and play Empyrion. I think at least a few of us will be online. If you want to play and can't make it tonight, we're also doing our regularly scheduled game night tomorrow night. Server details are posted here: http://www.dualcreatives.com/events/
  19. Yeah, some stuff in there is taking it a little too far, but overall, I agree. Being a woman working in a male dominated industry, I've been fighting bigotry for years. Not fun. So what I will say is that I will never harass any player because of racism or bigotry or anything like that. Don't care what religion you are, what your politics are, how much money you have ... However, if you're an ass, I'll probably kill you and take all your stuff - or at least try
