They have not made any indication of when NDA will be lifted at this point.

Same here

The prior Kickstarter and founder packs and the current sponsor packs have a variety of DAC (monthly time) included in them. The lowest that was offered that allowed lifetime was Ruby Kickstarter or Ruby Foundry which cannot be purchased anymore but was like $550. Once you get into alpha/beta you will not use monthly time until it’s live.

The PRF is seeking anyone that wants to make this civilization the best (and prettiest) it can be.

18 day test coming up! Join the PRF and build pretty things for science!

It’s true. I also don’t like Mac n cheese and any kind of tea.

Sober ish post. You still suck. And thanks, I just want everyone to enjoy this game. I love mexican food except beans. I order a plate at a restaurant. I eat the enchiladas and the rice but I don’t get pissed off that it comes with beans. I just don’t eat em.

Bringing it back a notch Everyone has a right to desire a type of game play. That said it’s exceedingly difficult to create a game that appeals to everyone. This game is not ment to be 100% pvp nor is it 100% creative mode. It’ll be a bit of both and if you choose to partake you’ll have to adjust. Dual Universe is doing it right. There will be safe zones where the creative folk will hang out. Creativity in a worry free area is beneficial in that it’ll drive individual styles and help build a diverse civilization. There will be VAST areas in between these safe areas that you can pvp your evil little hearts out. The space we have to work with is ridiculously big. Like DUMB big. In perspective don’t be upset that you can’t PvP over all of the entire lower 48 US states because New Hampsire is a safe area. This is a civilization building game. There will be big orgs, there will be wee little orgs and there will be people trying to go it alone. As a builder I do not expect that I have a right to venture into contested space and not have to deal with pirates or greifers. That being said the fore mentioned pirates and griefers should not expect to be able to attack anyone at anytime at any location. I want this in a bad way to be a huge game where everyone can do what they want. Believe that there’s room for all. I really mean that. There is really room for all. If people cant build pretty things then this verse will all look like cookie cutter rushed constructs. If we don’t have PvP then the constructs will not be practical and would end up over extravagant. DU not try to make this your game. Think about how to make it everyone’s game. That’s my few quanta.. ps. @Geo sucks

I have not read a way to ban someone from a safe zone. Maybe from using the market at your marketplace. I more see police forces stalking them and blowing them from the skies as they leave safety

We would all love to. One day it’ll happen.

To make this game appeal to as many people as possible there has to be safe zones. The amount of space we’ll have to occupy is going to be dumb big. Safe zones are on planets/moons but not the space between. There’s plenty of room for builders and pirates. Thinking that it HAS to be 100% pvp is selfish to your playsyle. I’m a builder. I know that I’ll have to deal with pvp at times and will have to plan accordingly. Like blaze said we’re here to build a civilization.

Lots and lots of animated GIFs

If you were part of the Kickstarter campaign you should have it now. There were 3 separate campaigns that are all independent of each other. In other words no cross campaign upgrades. 1. Kickstarter 2. Founder 3. The current patron, sponsor or contributor. You cannot upgrade the Kickstarter or Founder. If you are a silver Kickstarter then you’re good to go. If you are a silver founder then the only way to get it in now is patron or sponsor.

Hi kids! Pantera here! Wanna build wondrous thingies? We do too! Join the PRF! We like to build pretty things! Let’s build a fleet that those evil bad naughty peoples will not blow up cause it’s SO Pretty! You’ve seen us in screen shots and digests and we’d love to share our knowledge and have a grand time! We know our voxels and it’s not wizardry.. it’s science! We know how to break things pretty good too. Join us!

I just want more people to play! I need more friends! ... and more people to show off to.

Pretty sure any info reguarging the state of the pre-alpha is under NDA still.

I’m more worried about what’s left over then I am about the materials. We don’t know yet what it’ll take to strip a planet. It might take a REALLY LONG time. For me it’s the holes. We can fill them in on the surface but will 1000km of tunnels add unnecessary lag? Maybe not. Just a thought.

The Prophet Rocket Foundry with the help of Infinity Corp will go for the “mostest prettiest” record. Pretty over function till the day we die. PS. Also not sponsored but the PRF is recruiting. Did I mention 2 of the 3 community digests from NQ are PRF/IC? No? Well I just did. ?

So what we need is .. Roadside attractions! 1. Voxelhenge: a henge.. of voxels. 2. Enjin Ball: The verce’s largest collection of engines in a ball shape. 3. Mystery hole... construct built on a 45 4. Umm other fun things We can fill the verse with fun and records. Who’s the first to land on this round thing? If we need records we’ll need a name. So there is the Guinness Book of World Records. We can make the “Baillie Codex of Galactic Records”.

So a missing box of T-shirts on some distant planet? Hmmm ?

Maybe they’ll allow players in the Alpha/beta to create some permanent fixtures in game for the full release. That would kick major tooshie! Plllleeeaaassse NQ! ??

here's an alien ruin i built in Landmark. I think there is a possibility for some us to make some lore not about us arriving on the ark but who may have here before so i'd like to see: - Ye olde temples - Ruins - Ancient derelict spacecraft and space stations As far as things we will add - Statues and Monuments (Arc de Quark, JC Statue!) - Cities are a given maybe 1 colossal structure at the center would be the - Bridges - Space Stations here's one if Dual's tweets on Sept 15th showing a monument of sorts by @Bomdiggety

It will be based on elements but also time. Think of when the US stared with trains and railways, there was a lot of different track sizes and now we have one. It prolly won’t go to one standard but I’m sure over time wit will be narrowed down. Also we need to see what needs to be standardized. That’ll come later so we don’t really know what it will be yet.
