New PLEX System in EVE, and What DACs can learn from it.
DarkTemplar replied to Lord_Void's topic in General Discussions
Tbh I think its over complicating a very simple system. There isn't much point of splitting the DAC/PLEX into seperate pieces when you need a months equivalent to redeem it anyway. Except maybe to see your process towards the sub. I haven't played EVE so im not that familiar with the system, but in the end just see it as not needed. -
Where did all the TU ones float off to?

Dark's Snippets -- Random DU related stories!
DarkTemplar replied to DarkTemplar's topic in Roleplay & Lore
Hey all! Suprise post out of no where. Apparently this is a piece of writing I started/did I don't know when, I think during the early days before the lore was s lot more fleshed out. And which is why some of the lore doesn't quite check out. Anyway, enjoy! Feedback is always welcome, and so are ideas for more stories.- 6 replies

Dark's Snippets -- Random DU related stories!
DarkTemplar replied to DarkTemplar's topic in Roleplay & Lore
Calamity The rain lashed down around him, beating into his shoulders. Lightening flashed, scattering grim shadows over the sidewalk. The roar of the midnight city was drowned by the storm. Beaten down and suppressed. He quickly slipped an earpiece on, water seeping down his forearm. Music started to flow through the device as he continued his trek. Cars blurred past him, sending sprays of water into the air. Burnt out husks of buildings were homes once stood scattered the street. The riots had started 34 years ago, the images of the neutron star, their executioner, as some put it, were shown to the public. The announcement of the lottery system did more harm than good. People fought and killed each other over a chance to get aboard the ark ships. Mass hysteria and riots swept through the surviving population. Anything broken or burnt was typically left the way it was. The euthanasia programs swiftly followed. People who gave up on their chances to survive decided to die rather than face the end of the world.Those that weren't euthanised decide to live life while they still could. With governmental powers around the world collapsing, and only the UMF able to hold a stable grasp on their cities. Warlords and marauders appeared, raping, pillaging and burning anything because, people no longer cared for wealth, or political power anymore. You either had the strength and will to fight, or you died. He sighed, he was born on the day those photos had been released and the lottery system announced. Some called it fate, that he’d been selected by the lottery, some didn't give a damn. Like everyone else, he fought to stay alive,the majority of the Earth’s resources were being directed towards the rebirth programme. He looked down at his watch, 23:07 14/08/2534, it was predicted to be another four years before the star swept through the system and killed humanity. He stared ahead, the prize looming ahead, it stretched 8 kilometers high, piercing the storm, a testament to mankind's resolve to endure and survive. The arkships were humanities solution to the problem, massive constructs capable of carrying millions of people through the stars. And there were only two ways you could get aboard, by being extremely useful, or by being even luckier.- 6 replies

To add on. None of them (Bar SongOfStorm) has pledged, Which is highly sus for such a big org. None of them have profile pics, again sus. And if they are all new members, why have they gone to this one org and none of the others, considering they're all in one org only. Some of them were even made with the same naming conventions. Im not usually one to call out alt or anything like that, but I think they need to be at least checked out. Edit: doubled checked and there's profile pics, but really?

Regardless if its halo or not, if there isn't a question/you haven't devloped and idea around it (or something similar), it should still go in the off-topic chat. Afaik.

What Information would cause you to up your pledge?
DarkTemplar replied to Ripper's topic in General Discussions
As well as what I said before, it depends on wether or not they will select another wave of Alpha Team Members. -
Maybe different skills allow you to grow different crops, build/maintain a harvester to a higher level and just make you a better farmer. And this is the future, so you will/should be able to genetically modify your crops for different things. Amount of water needed, heat/cold resistance, amount of time in sun needed, time to grow and crop yield, etc. (Assuming those variables will be there to affect crops.)

What Information would cause you to up your pledge?
DarkTemplar replied to Ripper's topic in General Discussions
Waiting to find out how much a car is going to set me back to figure out if I have the money. -
Adding on a bit. Say exploration/scanning is done by the pilot entering an orbit. Reaches a certain velocity/trajectory and it automatically puts you into the default scanning orbit. Now, from there you scan set your Apoapsis and Periapsis, changing your orbit. The closer your are in your orbit, the higher detail of the scan you get back, except it covers a smaller area (because you are closer), and thus takes more time. If gravity is a thing, its more fuel consuming and dangerous. On the other side you could choose to pick a larger/longer orbit. This would scan more of the planet in an orbit, requiring less time and orbits, but giving you a lower detail. Again, if we have a proper grabity well, it would be less fuel consuming and safer. Tl:dr - A mechanic that allows us to choose our orbits when scanning a planet closer = more detail but slower, further = less detail but faster.
-
Im looking forward to that idea. And so far we've seen the big holo map of a planet in one of the videos, which is hopefully more than a map and something you can plot courses from.

mercenary Vanguard Mercenaries -- Recruiting
DarkTemplar replied to DarkTemplar's topic in Org Updates & Announcements
Vanguard is a fragment group of the TU. Left due to issues with the high council. We find the name fitting for us. And while we're similar to a military corporation, we're not quite there. While yes we are mainly militarialy focused, Vanguard accepts any kind of contract as long as the members want to do it. Private Mercenary Contractors.- 28 replies
