The click bait title worked.
I like the idea, but they should also look to increase the weight of the large shields so that it has a bigger impact on top speeds

Mine surface rocks, build noob auto miners, queue up schematics, start building something to sell on the market.
-
I suspect they won’t release a roadmap until any post launch stability issues are sorted out.

I think that there are enough systems and play loops for this to function as an MMO. One thing that Eve didn't have to contend with that DU may face is Steam review brigades. It is possible for one troll to put the hurt on sales.
Eve had terrible critics review for the first few years, but enough people picked it up through word of mouth and it thrived. Hopefully the same will happen here. But yeh there’s going to be plenty of bad reviews, mainly from the kids that are frustrated that the game didn’t deliver the full list of aspirations.
What I don’t know is how positive reviews offset bad ones on steam.

Cant say well done, if they release a unfinished game, again. We acepted a unfinished release in the beta, but unfinished game in the release?
The core mechanics are not in the game:
-Territory Warfare
-Atmosferic Combat
-Alot planet rework pending
-No energy system
-No economy loop
This is just push the game to another Wipe, once they finish all pending features, or close the project, wen steam bad coments doom it.
There’s more content in DU now than there was when Eve launched. Sure they don’t have everything, but it’s in the pipeline and there’s plenty to do for now.

I’d predict AvA in 3-4 years if the game is successful.

What is the expected timeline for adding the planets back?
You can't just remove more than half of the planets and give a vague "They're coming later..."
WHEN? Will all the planets be added within, say, a month? 3 months? a year?
Removing 7 out of 12 planets and then launching the game seems completely insane to me.
I assume they will put them back in when the player base is big enough. It’s their way of making sure the world feels full at the start. It’s a good idea if you ask me.

Added to wish list.
Please can we now get some information on the roadmap for the first 6months/year. This will help us convince people to return and new players to start playing.

They need the money to keep the game we all love going, I don’t see what the big deal is.
I’d prefer it this way than there be no game at because they run out of money. -

i prefer shop + no sub. i would even pay full price (60$) just to not pay a sub.
If there’s no sub, then there’s no guarantee of further content, without further content the game dies.

I think there are higher priorities. Many of them.

Great work, love that it’s nice and compact and at the bottom, looks really great. Can’t wait to try it out.

What a lie. Everyone could solve the puzzle. The puzzle as there, in the game, everyone could find the obelisks, everyone could solve it.. ^^
I play the game every day, I’m frequently on discord and constantly in the forums. I have only heard rumour of the obelisks.
-
Sounds like an extension of the mission functionality
-
One slightly concerning comment that was made: “we hope to only have to launch once” …….soooo there might be further wipes and launches?
I'm pro a wipe for a clean launch, but only if it’s confirmed to be persistent after that point.

Great news and exactly the type of reset the game needs.
I look forward to getting a great many friends to join the game at launch.

The building height limit of 1000 meters was new..
Kind of important to know, why was this change never properly announced?
To me this is a very welcome and agreeable, change, especially as it wil kill the towers post wipe but first time I hear of it
Yeh it’s a good change, they havnt said what will happen to existing towers…. But then we all know there’s gonna be a wipe, so I guess that will sort it.

Did i read this correct that I need to make a schematic for FUEL?????? Are you serious I have to pay taxes on land to get the material and have to pay to make a schematic for tier 2 pure and to make the fuel.... Just reading this I dont want to sign in... Please tell me this isnt true..
WTF.. Well I will give it a day to find out if this correct. B4 i delete my last account....
Only if you want to manufacture it?

The one thing I like about this approach is it means NQ can set prices in the future, thereby making it possible to adapt as the economy changes. They have to have this flexibility as it’s impossible to get it right at the start, and future features will require further changes to prices.
-
Love the concept, will be interesting to see exactly how it’s been designed. Looks quite small at the moment, I hope the design is able to scale well

Of course they are. We're years ahead on talents than anyone who'd come to play at launch, who'd expect a fresh game (since, hey, the game just launched). A wiped game will give the impression of a fresh world to inhabit. And let's be realistic, it'll drive anyone with any competitive sense away to hear that they already missed out big time because they didn't spend money on this game years ago.Completely agree, I think it’s very likely that most talent points will be wiped. They may allow us to keep a couple of months worth at most.

How many other Beta games out there charge a monthly fee?
Beta testing also used to done by paid employee's.
I was paying to play a persistent world, not being paid to bug test a game.
I would love a lawyers opinion on the legality of wiping for those that have paid a monthly subscription.
The world moved on, people pay to play alphas now.

They spawn on Saturdays, but are there all week to be discovered, the fact that it’s a Saturday refresh isn’t a big deal (I’m sure will be better in the future).
I like the mechanic generally, it requires some effort to get to them, and the ones in the pvp zone have a good risk/reward trade off.
