Very little of the old Talemai remains, so yes it's an old planet, but it went through extensive plastic surgery and currently has the value of a $5 hook...
 
ps. We're still playing a beta... 😉

AvA, yea. Did the idea that DU engine can only support lock&shoot in a vacuum crossed you mind ?
Or the part where I see a wall, you are behind it. I turn around so it unloads and then turn back fast and shoot. Yahooooo I win.
 
If your client doesn't "see" voxels - they are not there. There is no server side anything.

Another poor soul figured out that NQ pvp ad videos are complete fake.
 
I feel you.

NQ Roadmap 2022: Survive
 
That's all you seen it.

You are reading this message because you love this game. You may be disappointed or angry, but surely you love this game.
 
Why am I here?
1. One solar system with all planets and moons is more than enough to explore.
2. Planets are big enough.
3. Fly between planets with a true orbital mechanic.
4. We can mine and produce almost everything in the game.
5. The voxel magic is appealing.
6. Build my own ship as I can or buy/still ideas
7. Scripting is a universe within a universe.
 
Why am I disappointed?
 
1. Gamemasters don’t think enough about balance.
 
A. Overproduction. There is no efficient way to dispose of elements. PvP is definitely not enough. Factories also can have a limited number of installations. There is no way to remanufacture old or damaged elements.
 
B. Searching the asteroids takes too long. Surface mining is safer and faster in terms of time.
 
2. There is nothing to explore.
 
A. There are no ruins on the planets.
 
B. Why would I dig to a depth of 5 km if there's nothing there?
 
C. Where are abandoned space stations?
 
D. Why can’t you  hide the most “expensive” schematics somewhere  instead of selling them for quanta? I even agree to return all my schematics for free if you give me a chance to search them somewhere in the PvP space and haggle with others to get what I really need.
 
3. Collaboration is impossible without competition.
 
A. Quanta on my balance is not the right motivation.
 
B. There is no mechanic for taking over an occupied tile. It should be a way to pressure by reducing production or damage to constructs from surrounding tiles, as well as a mechanic to protect my own tile.
 
4. There are no basic things in the gameplay.
 
A. PvP is hard to implement, but there is PvE? Why is the universe sterile? Where are the interacting flora and fauna? There are no animals in the forest and oceans.  No risk of being killed by NPCs and no way of getting something vital from them.
 
B. Almost immortal avatar with no possibility of taking partial damage.
 
5. Focus on secondary objectives.
 
A. We are happy to live with some non-critical bugs. No need to spend too much effort fixing all of them. You will create them again with the new update. 
 
B. I’m desperately waiting for a voxel editor, but I’m quite happy to use printers. Please focus on the really important goals. Creativity in a void universe makes no sense.

Go small ? We did pre 0.23 but someone cried and said that their L core hauler should be viable against our xs cubes. 
 

You will understand why it is a bad idea when NQ runs out of money as no one is playing the game to make it sustainable.

Damn, OP posts have more letters written than last 3 DU patches combined!

Maybe the forum license without the poll ability is cheaper. Cutting maintenance costs is a hot topic recently.

That's the exact point why NQ will not tell you if there will be one, they need you to test the game and pay them the sub.
 
Once they decide they are ready(or once they run out of money) they will release and wipe everything(leaving talents maybe) as no new players will be interested in joining a game where economy is already in ruins and is in hands of the few beta nolifers.
 
Will the "beta players" leave ? Common, there are like what 200 people playing max ? Even if 100 leaves it doesn't change a picture in a grand scale of things.

German(with Google translate):
Das ist genau der Punkt, warum NQ Ihnen nicht sagen wird, ob es eines geben wird. Sie müssen das Spiel testen und ihnen das Sub bezahlen.
 
Sobald sie entscheiden, dass sie bereit sind (oder sobald ihnen das Geld ausgeht), werden sie alles veröffentlichen und löschen (vielleicht bleiben Talente zurück), da keine neuen Spieler daran interessiert sein werden, an einem Spiel teilzunehmen, bei dem die Wirtschaft bereits in Trümmern liegt und sich in den Händen einiger weniger befindet Beta-Nolifer.
 
Werden die "Beta-Spieler" gehen? Üblich, es gibt etwa 200 Leute, die maximal spielen? Selbst wenn 100 Blätter es im Großen und Ganzen nicht ändern.

If NQ gonna play, ping me plz. Gonna resub and intercept them on their first flight to any outer planet. This should be hilarious.

Yea because I am sure people will be so happy to jump into a "fresh game on release" that already has all the wealth concentrated in the hands of few dedicated beta-testers that bought 30 warp beacon schematics for pennies during the "sales" period...
 
Right ?

I feel you.
 

Alpha stage, beta stage, blabla stage. Just be honest and advertise it as "shitty stage".

They will wipe at release. You will keep your talent points and (non-magic) blueprints so you can recreate them.
Wealth, mats and constructs will go poof.
 
What 100 people that are still playing DU think about this is irrelevant. They are not enough to make the game sustainable anyway.

NQ says removing the holes boosts the performance.
NQ says making the ships go boom due to stress instead of seeing long voxel damage boosts performance.
NQ says having many constructs in 1 place reduces performance so they should be moved/whatever.
 
You know what has high performance ? Checkers. But for some reason people don't pay sub to play it and it's popularity is in kind of decline for last decades.
 

Mega orgs ?
Does 3 ppl count as mega in DU ?
