@joaocordeiro Your post is wrong on many levels.

Hello.
Me and couple of my friends will gladly offer protection for miners who would like to dig asteroids. If you are a beginner and don't have enough resources to get good ship, we can also provide a good mining ship for this ocassion. Good money plus lots of fun and adrenaline.
After you sell the resources we split the income equaly
Please contact me on priv.

... twice I was intercepted at full speed ...
Hello.
Maybe the problem was different.
1). There was a bug that made big ships fly slower then 30k. Even thougt the speed meter showed 30k in reality they were going slower. I have no idea if they fixed that.
2). There still is a bug that makes the ship with thrust turned on flying faster then the ship that turned off the engines even if those two ships show the same 30k on their speed meter
3). You can get intercepted by warp jumping if you fly in a stright line from A to B but you can avoid that choosing a route around
I don't think that Lua knowledge is the enemy here. I think that your real enemy is the fact that whoever attacked you was part of a bigger organization with bigger resources. If you want to outsmart them you need to think a lot but you don't have to be a lua coder.

None of us normal players like Legion. Legion is where all he thrash of he society has come together, similar to what we see what human thrash builds up around a certain orange-haired wanna-be dictator of one of the big countries here on Earth. Just the bottom of the society.
There is a Russian PVP org that prepares a big srike against Legion in the coming two weeks, and I hope that they will be successful to wipe out the Legion thrash.Actually I ❤️Legion! They are the only reason I still play DU and even manage to recruit back some old players. We do asteroids run and hope for some touble cause it's fun. Without Legion there would be no enemy to fight with or run from.

@Zeddrick The skill wipe would be a disaster, but I guess we are talking here only about the economic one. The economic wipe itself would surely put them off but If it would come as a price for bigger population of new players then maybe it would work. THe problem is I doubdt that wipe would bring much of a new players.
Btw. I looked through the list of 30 offline friends and counted 8 of them who would probably get back to game if they have a reason. Half of them still has working accounts and just log in from time to time to check the skill queue.

The interesting thing is that NQ fixed most of the problems that I had with the game, which are:
- Stability problems (it was crashing constantly on my PC)
- Reason for PvP (Asteroids)
- Way to hold enemy in PvP (Warp blockade)
- New ways to earn Quanta (Mission runs)
It's still unbalanced as hell but atleast the features are there and I'm grateful for that.
However when I got back to Dual, it appeared that I don't have anyone to play with. Whole my Org (20-30 people) has left the servers long time ago and they laugh at the idea of comming back every time we talk about it. They left the game for Starbase and now as the Starbase died as well they all moved to New World. Maybe if all those changes would be magically introduced to the game a year ago when we were all still playing Dual Universe then they would never leave and now we would be happly fighting for asteroid domination with other orgs.

Last 7 days Youtube stats
Dual Universe: 19 hits
Starbase: 56 hits
Steam Charts 24h peak
Starbase: 762
Aproximate Dual Universe 24h peak = 762 *19 / 56 = 258
It is inacurrate for sure but it shows the general scale of things the number is probably a bit bigger as the Starbase game is new so some youtubers just shows it because of that. If I would have to guess then it's probably around 300

Thank you.

Hello.
I'm writing a LUA script for a control unit and I'm looking for a place where the "Hit Probability" value is stored bacause I want to display it to the player. I couldn't find it in the API documentation but I know it must be somewhwere as I saw scripts that shows that.

Railguns are the worst choice for weapons right now. NQ stated that there will be further balancing of weapons so there is still hope rails make a come back. Right now until then you better get drops for Laser from someone else.
That's what I do

Hey! What about only 3 railguns L after patch?
Do you know is it a bug or a feature?
I have level 5 at Railgun capacity, Gunner seat capacity and Radar L capacity But I can fit only 3 Railguns L to the chair. It looks a bit like a mistake to me cause it lacks only a tiny bit of points to get that 4th Railgun mounted and I could mount 4 earlier.
That's pretty important to know. We invested months of training to get all the handling and operating skills to the decent level. Now Railguns are far weaker then other guns and we don't know if we should start training in another type of guns or keep invewsting another months of game into rails.
I know I may sound a bit snappish but I really need to know where is this heading. I have two characters that I want to develope for PvP bud I don't know what skill should I develope.

Just want to bump the question:
Can we see an approximate method of calculating the hit probability ?
-
thank you
-
Thank you. This means that I Don't have to be afraid too much of adding visual ornaments like the antenas, right ?
-
Hello.
We know that there are a lot of variables influencing the hit probability in PvP those that I know of are:
Distance, Gun Range, Gun Max Cone, Gun RotateSpeed, and Target Size.
However it thoesn't tell a lot without knowing the alghoritm.
Dear NQ can you proivide us:
- At least an approximate method of calculating the hit probability ?
-
The way the size of the ship is calculated. I understand that it's the surface of the tharget projected from the attacker perspective but I still don't know if the alghoritm count:
- (A) The area in which the ship will fit?
- (B) The exact area or the ship
A - the area in which the ship will fit?
B - The exact area or the ship

Hello.
Here is my question:
Do you expect that 0.26 will provide enough PvP for it to becme an important part of the game.
Thank you.
-
I want PvP but the form of this pool is so overcomplicated that I dubt NQ would ever seriously take it under consideration. Just change the questions to Yes or No.
-
Just my 4 cents of a regular player:
- I stoped playing at the end of 2020.
- I still have 2 active account because I want to support Dual Universe.
- Now i just reguraly check Youtube to see if the pvp is there yet.
- I will get back to the game when some PVP drive will be delivered.
Thank you for your attention
-
I've already done that

Are you guys serious?
This is so riciculus that i don't even know where to start. The game is dying I try to make somthing about it , attract new players into some interesting gameplay and all you can do is complaining. Think about it for just a second. If I have enough character skills and resources to deliver some decent PvP Ships and crew then it's pretty obvious that my org has billions of quanta and what we doing here is for fun.
I try to make a nice community driven gameplay here and you are trying hard to ruin that before it even started.
This situation makes me sad cause I like Dual Universe very much and I really wishi it to develop
