    The real question to your long debate that going off-topic is, why would you put all that effort to gather tones of resources and time to build a stargate and let it unprotected? I believe in DU the real question is not only about how much resources do I need to build x y  or z. But have a people to maintain it. Think about the game completely driven by people. WE are AI of this game. 
     
    So, would you build a city and abandon it? 
    Would you even build a city if you cannot sustain a small settlement?
    Would you even build a stargate not having few cities/settlements, citizens, trade network, fleet and crew?

    I think the idea that Dual might actually be everything that it claims to be kind of piss off people that bought into all off what No Mans Sky was supposed to be.
     
    I remember reading about No Mans Sky and getting a bad feeling myself.  It was as if every person i heard talking about the game was describing a slightly different game. Basically because Hello Games was fine with just letting people believe the game would be whatever they wanted.  It was the game of people's dreams, literally.
     
    There are going to be some people who want to see DUAL fail just so we are all as wrong about it, as they were about No Mans Sky.  Misery loves company.
     
    Also DUAL will probably never be as popular as No Mans Sky was at it's peak, mainly because i just don't believe there are that many gamers that want to play the same type of game.  People have different tastes.
     
    The only way that many people get on the same hype train is if a lot of them are confused.
     
    That's why i'm so glad NQ has been so honest about what kind of game DUAL is, but also what it won't be.
     
    There's such an insane demand for the next big space game right now.  People are hungry.  I don't even think Hello Games set out to run the scam of the century.  They just kind of stumbled into it because they were in a hurry to make some money.

    Well, they switched to Unigine 2 engine a while ago and that should tell you a lot about what we can expect.
    Game is mostly procedural and engine itself is designed to handle and partition space so is never going to exceed some amount of triangles.
     
    How much triangles your rig can handle? You can even check that today by downloading unigine benchmarks.
    That would be a good indication if you need new rig or not.
     
    https://unigine.com/en/products/benchmarks/valley
     
    Sure they can add some tings on top. LUA being run on client side hogging your CPU more, GUI interface etc. But rendering engine is the power horse here.
    Unless in the future they will switch to something else...

    To clarify. Most of us here are Polish but we are open for multinational players since this is sort of Human Social experiment we are trying to implement. Nationality doesn't matter at all. We already have guys from Ukraine, Czech Republic and UK and English is kind of mandatory for smooth communication. If your English level is basic but the second language is Polish you can survive

    Haha, I'm glad you could read all that from this piece. My intention was exactly like this. I was imagining a scene when you are alone in deep space trying to survive on broken ship and looking for solutions. Sometimes there is a failure after failure but sometimes comes a solution, a hope.
     
    But.. well that was the idea but I realized after you described it, in once sentence. It was all that endless hours playing SE. Watching my ship destroyed by random events (horror part), then there was attempt to rebuild it, make it even better (melodic) looking at a shiny new ship and... retribution and.. BUM! random event again
     
    In other words, this 10min piece represents almost 4000h of my time totally wasted in game that was only a promise, a hope. Please DU deliver, you are my last hope.
     
    BTW, I just figured out how to control more expensiveness over a MIDI. All bits were out of balance and flat. At some point I will remaster them all with new abilities. It sounds much better.

You may see more games like this in the future with different flavor, theme but as always the first will be remembered as a classic. Sure, many of player will get filtered out of this, but Sci-Fi space genre lovers will stay for as long as this game provides entertainment. So far nobody else on horizon to come even close to this promise.

    The Purge already happened on Earth. Just before Arcship left. We know this because we were there. Witnessed all of it trying to give a chance to few more people left behind. Our mission is to prevent humankind to go this route again. You can organize whatever you want, question is how many will follow.

    Hello Dual Universe community.
     
    We are HOMELESS!
     
    I know, there is just logo some short back story and some soundtrack prepared for our little organisation so far.
    Most of honorable organisations having well prepared sections and structures, we are not there yet.
     
    Instead there is a simple idea behind our group.
    We would like to run some social experiment of the cashless society. Or rather Inspired by Resource Based Economy concept and see how this will go in brave new world. Don't be mistaken, Homeless stands for the fact we all have lost Earth, our home. But it doesn't mean we are going to be poor. According to the agenda we are actually going to be better off to compare to any other organisation out there
     
    We are HOMELESS, we miss our home planet and probably will always call ourselves like that... because of that.
    We know already, we will never find place like it. So our home is our ship in vast space or where our people are. We have no intention to settle anywhere yet. Lack of resources, melancholy of the world we left behind. But the primary goal is to build a society, claim resources and terotories of the vast space.
     
    Core of the team is a bunch of 'Space Engineers' who played together in server called... well you guessed! HOMELESS!
    Group of engineers trying to survive in outer space on random asteroids fighting against poor, and cruel physics
     
    But we've made it, joined Arc ship on our own, despite not being invited to the party. We managed to gather our own resources just in time and join the fleet in great journey to find new place.
     
    We looking to expand our Organisation. We prefer quality over quantity but any valuable addition to our team that shares our goals, values and simply have a fun playing together is very welcome.
     
    Backstory
     
    Former crew of UMF fleet that got together to restore faith in humankind. Our ship was sent on final mining operation before trip to Alioth, but we were left behind. Never selected or chosen to be on board Arkship. Shortly before Earth was destroyed there was chaos and disorder among those who left. Humankind shown its worst nature once again. 
     
    The Group of Elite Space Engineers and Scientists decided to try to gather enough resources, seek new chance to get to planet Alioth. After following The Arkship trails and joined the rest of pioneers of this brave new world shortly after. 
     
    Remembering what happened back on Earth decided not to obey UMF rules anymore and create society based on the model that was born back in 21 century. We believe, that Project Reborn should start fresh. Abandon all old ideas that kept humankind enslaved for so many centuries. The supernova discovery was a disaster that not only destroyed our home but held us back from implementing new social ideas despite great technological advancements. It was always politics of fear and danger.
     
    Now since we have fresh start there is a time better than ever to advance to the next level. Most of the population that survived was fed with wrong version of history, propaganda and brainwashed. Too excited of the promise of new life, to know, what UMF really is and what kind of future it holds for them. 
     
    We were the last hope of the old world. And we are the only hope of the new one. 
     Who does not know history is doomed to repeat it.
     If you are awaken, if you remember, join us!
     
    Agenda
     
    The Reborn Project proposes an alternative vision of what the future can be if we apply what we already know in order to achieve a sustainable new world civilization. It calls for a straightforward redesign of our culture in which the age-old inadequacies of war, poverty, hunger, debt and unnecessary human suffering are viewed not only as avoidable, but as totally unacceptable. Anything less will result in a continuation of the same catalog of problems inherent in today's world. People of Antioch may enjoy new start, low population levels and last 500 years would render this idea ahead of it's time once again. But we are not delusional and remember problems that humankind faced and is set to repeat in new world.
     
    Values

    Evidence shows that most of our behavior is determined by the environment we live in. Changing the environment also results in change in behavior in the long run. People remaining longer periods of time in a certain environment would absorb more from that environment and in time they will behave more in accordance with their surroundings. Today people traveled to the new world in search for an environment that they consider suitable for them — with others who share similar values.
    The values prevalent in our society have been inherited from previous generations but the environment we live in is very different. Electricity, vaccines, waste management systems,  Internet, nanotechnology, space engineering etc... have contributed to a vast change of environmental factors but many people around the world today still hold on to the values of the past even though these values do not yield positive outcomes.
    Our values are superimposed upon us through every aspect of our experience, movies, education, books, TV, Internet, teachers, role models, subcultures, religion, home life and more. The values given to us are to perpetuate the social system we live under. The manipulation and control is so subtle that we think it comes from within while being reinforced with notions of individuality to believe this.
    What we need is a value system that corresponds with the physical reality and one that would facilitate our development towards a saner culture.
     
    Determining Values
     
    Our values are largely determined by the culture we live in. Organisations around the new world offer different standards of living depending on the resources they manage but they also require their citizens and visitors to follow the established order. What might be considered standard practices in some cultures, in others these practices might be considered extremely socially offensive. Capital punishment is still practiced in many countries around the world today whereas in others, this absolutely ineffective practice has been surpassed.
     
    Values are also determined by the methods of thought used in managing the people and the resources in a particular culture. Dictatorships often use theistic methods of indoctrination to make people believe that the established order works for their best interest. Democracies, on the other hand, use manipulative tactics to indoctrinate their populations into believing that individuals have an array of choices but in fact this array is extremely limited compared to what can be accomplished if humanity uses science and technology intelligently.
     
    Nowadays, there are different socio-economic systems around the world but we can see that the values prevalent in all cultures have been inherited from past generations and are, to a certain extent, detrimental when applied in our modern society. For instance, forbidding contraception because of religious beliefs can have devastating consequences for a population threatened by venereal disease outbreak. Moving forward into a saner future requires that we design an environment that facilitates our social growth into an emerging global society.
     
    Designing Optimal Environments
     
    The ancient values, inherent in our social structure from past generations, emerged from a hostile environment based on extreme scarcity. Today we experience a very different environment but we rely on an outdated value system which causes the problems that we experience in our everyday lives. In order to surpass this elementary level in our evolution we need to design an environment that reinforces constant value update.
    In a Resource Based Economy the main focus is on the people and the environment. Producing a high standard of living for all human beings on Earth while restoring, preserving and enriching the environment around them requires the use of science and technology and also requires a higher degree of efficiency.
     
    Access centers care for the needs of the people by offering all available goods and services free of charge. Automated transportation offers fast, safe and reliable travel across the entire city and between cities and interplanetary, for a fraction of the time. Education designed to bridge the differences between people offers different perspectives and facilitates continuous cultural learning resulting in overall positive human and environmental impact.
     
    Humane Values
     
    The moral standards of past generations do not offer solutions for present social challenges. It is not enough to label people ‘good’ or ‘bad’ anymore as we know that environmental factors largely determine their behavior. Half of all food production ends as waste while famine is still a major problem around the world. Creating abundance of energy by using renewable sources is possible today but a quarter of the world’s population still lives with no access to electricity. Most people are still strongly attached to the notion of ownership even though they would prefer to stay in a luxury hotel that offers maximum comfort. We still respect biblical notions such as ‘Those that don’t work, shouldn’t eat’ even though most recent technological and scientific advancements that make our lives better result from the efforts of very few men and women. The present state of morality is outdated, full of contradictions and based on ancient practices that yield detrimental results if applied today. The methods of science can be used to determine a functional morality and this exercise will demand that we reevaluate our entire notion of what makes us human.
     
    From the very early stages of human evolution, humankind has always tried, where possible, to improve its standard of living depending on resource availability. Evidently, some parts of the world with environments more suitable for human development have produced the complex social systems of the present. A couple of centuries ago humans discovered the methods of science and the result was exponential increase in the standard of living for a selected few. Today we are faced with a similar decision – to move forward to the next phase of our social evolution – an emerging global culture that uses science and technology to intelligently manage its planetary resources for the betterment of all planetary inhabitants. The incentive for problem solving will emerge naturally as people see the positive results of their contributions and they will protect the environment as they understand that the ideas for most solutions also come from it and our existence depends on it. Climate change, nuclear armament, increasing environmental pollution, and constant conflicts between individuals and nations demand that we use scientific tools and methods for problem solving as today’s global challenges demand a global approach from an integrated perspective.
