    It's also isometric and of far less mechanics though. Just saying. C++ is the real powerhouse for MMOs of insane scale and potentials. Javascript or Java on its own, it's not as tough as C++ is.

     

    And Unigine 2 was made in Russia. Rus-C-a. Can't blame them for it :V

    Ringworlds?

    While I agree that those who would want to maintain power wouldn't want someone outside of their power bloc building ANYTHING like this.  How would you stop them?  It's not like in EVE where everything is built as an all or nothing approach.  A Ringworld or other Dyson construct could be built in sections with interlocking components.  These components can then be BROUGHT to the final construction site all at once.  Ah, how I love sandbox construction.

     

    Don't underestimate the power of a dedicated, angry nerd. Spending years in an organization with the sole intent of bringing them down. And as your super duper awesome Project Ringworld is underway with multiple sites creating separate blocks, your most trusted ally and right hand man is telling the enemy where it all is, and the location where it will be built. But no, the enemy wont attack while it's being built in sections. They will wait in hiding for the pieces to arrive. Kill you, steal the sections, and build it themselves.

     

    Or something like that, I don't know.  :P

     

    You have a good point, and I don't see why you wouldn't be able to do this. But on the scale of a Ringworld.... man, I don't know. Thats YUUUUUUUGE.

    I would have no problem with them creating a stand-alone blueprint module where you can only create blueprints and then upload them into the game when you're done and ready for placement.  But any resource gathering, placements, etc should be done online. 

     

    Sounds like something we should get as an add-on much later in development though.  Get the core game online and tweaked, and then start adding extras.

     

    ^ This.

    Being plausible doesn't mean people will be actually let to build a death star good sir :P People will nuke the site before they let anyone harness the power of a sun with a ringworld made of solar panels and store the energy for an endless supply of power to their ships :P

     

    Yeah, as soon as any one group caught whiff of someone building a project like this, it'd be nuked within a week. So that said, go ahead. Build one!

     

    Though, it would be cool for a community project to build a ring world, that would somehow remain "neutral" not belonging to any group when it was finished. Could be a fun community goal that NQ could put together.

    THIS is what I WANTED

    NMS is great for solo explorers, yeah... But, I do wish we had more opportunities to hang out there with other players.

    I'd need both NMS and DU in the same game to really feel complete.

     

    I'm somewhat in the same boat, but I'm happy with both being separated. I'll enjoy NMS for quite some time anyways. I didn't have high expectations, and really only wanted them to get the exploration done right, which so far they have stayed on that track. I can understand others' gripes with it however.

    You would also be excluding yourself from the emergent game play, by playing online only when it suits you. I understand where you're coming from, don't get me wrong. And I wouldn't mind an offline ship/building designer, but as far as actually building and playing goes, online only.

    I told you admitting he was wrong was ok, but his ego inflation after a peace offer was not. Novaquark did nothing like "praising to get to his good side", they simply wanted to settle the dispute - that he had started. His following hour-long rant against them was completely out of place.

     

    Boasting his bigheaded supposed importance in that speech containing zero other informatiion was probably the most cringy thing I have ever seen on Youtube.

     

    Unfortunately, it works for him. I actually doubt he even cares enough as he portrays in his videos about some of the things he discusses. It's an act, an over zealous act to gain reactions. Doesn't matter what kind of publicity you get, even bad publicity is good. Though, his stuff is incredibly cringy and I just can't sit through it.

     

    It just isn't my style, but it works for him and people enjoy it. 

     

    He did have some valid concerns to begin with however, so there is that I suppose.

    "Capital" Ships controlled by one or many?

    There's a tricky pick-up sequence you can go for, but it requires two people, one of them is the itnerested party. It works only on female programmers. The pick-up line at the end is " When I saw you my stack overflowed". 

     

    Step 1 : You go up to her, start to talk, then freeze, then the wingman comes along and manually rotates you away from the lady and brings you back to your table or stand in the club/bar/wherever.

     

    Step 2 : You go back and say the afformentioned line. If she's the information you got on her indicates she's a programmer, she'll probably laugh and start a covnersation. After that, it's all about your understanding of vast subjects to discuss. My suggestion : Get into rom-coms. Women of any background love rom-coms (so do men, but this is not a girl to guy kind of route).

     

    Step 3 : Hope you have taken courses into the horizontal shuffle, cause there ain't real advices on this subject. And given you missed the innuendo one reply above, I can't see we are on the same page :|

     

    I was just going for some light hearted joking. Wasn't expecting, well, that.

    I usually have to rely on my versatile vocabulary on that. Women love a man of eloquence. It's all about being silver-tongued, in more ways than one. Trust me, once you get into deep C++, you figure out that everyone has a "pointer" you can call back.

     

    Yep, you've definitely used the coding and chill pick up line before. 

     

    Has it worked? Asking for a friend...
