Would read again .... if I read it the first time

Even a monkey knows right or wrong!

In JC and NQ we trust!

JC and NQ just went on a media blitz for the kickstarter and they made many vids to show the game. They can't do that all of the time .... they have to work on the game too

#2 JC has said there will be different flight mechanics for in atmosphere and out of atmosphere. He hinted at ships specializing in one or the other and having a planet flyer (for lack of better wording) docked on the space transporter.

It will be player driven ... which is why you should join us to help insure your freedom to do what you want.

Check out the Aether ... groups together with similar mindset as yours. http://ovoderlot.wixsite.com/theaether/clients

Oh yeah .... I forgot about this .... looks like I was the closest without going over Oh wait .... (I'm the woman in the vid)

I just saw episode 15 and 16 are now up on youtube .... ABOUT TIME GUYS!!! Looking forward to a couple hours of DU talk, thanks

You noticed that .... nice

You can't steal a ship if there is an easy self destruct ... everyone will have it which would make stealing a ship impossible. This is Grand Theft Spaceship/Space Station/ Planet Base/Hovercraft/Territory since JC has talked about taking over cores both in space and on planets. He has actually said that capturing a ship mechanic will probably be in game before ship v ship combat. You are assuming game mechanics like EMP weapons in your post that don't exist yet or even have been discussed by JC/NQ If you can EMP electronic systems that itself would be OP. He has discussed hacking but to hack you can't have a self destruct. You said so in your post it won't be easy to hack/take a ship over so why even add a mechanic like this. You want to scuttle your ship so the enemy doesn't get it ... then do it the old fashion way ... shoot it to bits. If you have a game mechanic like this that in effect doesn't become a choice and a counter that then in effect doesn't become a choice then the mechanic becomes tedious. If the end result always comes out the same .... BOOM .... then people won't even attempt to take over a ship. There is nothing emergent about that. You are assuming I would want to capture to reverse engineer. I do want to have the choice to steal ships from those who are aggressive towards others. I have in mind a trophy hanger and has nothing to do with building capabilities. If I captured it then why in the hell would I want to make a fleet of them since I already beat it with what I had. I am talking in more general terms because we do not know the details of these things yet. They have not been created or even decided. You talk about very specific details which may end up just being only in your imagination at the end of the day.

Hello

It sounds like a cool idea but ... in terms of game play making it almost impossible to capture a ship which will be difficult anyway I don't think this would improve the fun of the game.

TBH I applaud you. I would guess that the majority of us are somewhat Star Wars fans at least and you have continuously changed and adapted but determined to follow what you want. Can't copy, which crumbled what you were trying to build .... but you didn't quit and adapted and continued. Even though I am totally against any authoritative type of organization and goes completely opposite of my value of individual freedom and choice, I wish your empire luck. Well, until the balance needs to be restored.

I'll just say this belongs in the Ark Pub .... because all the cool kids are saying it

Yeah I agree .... just think June and you should be good.

TBH I'd like updates when there is something worth talking about and updating us on. I'd rather NQ work on the game than multiple titled regular shows like some other crowd funded space sim mmo that's taking FOREVER! I know you only asked for a write up and I went extreme, but get what I'm saying? You picking up what I'm putting down? You hitting what I'm pitching? You smelling what I'm cooking? You rocking what I'm rolling? You catching what I'm chasing here? Ok, can't google anymore of those. #1 though I strongly support

You could be the Yin to our Yang.

I see this being very fun and entertaining however Im not much of a writer myself. I do encourage those who are to get involved with this and I'm interested to see where you all can take this.

Yeah as stated already I don't see this being an in game thing but I do see it being player driven on youtube or streams.
