The issue is the game is at least 90% tedium no matter what 'path' you pick.
 
Industry?  90% tedium of fighting the lag of the link tool or the random breakdowns where some random element simply stops working. 
 
Mining? - mining is 100% tedious.
 
Pvp? 90% waiting around.
 
Ship Design? Voxelmancy is 100% tedium.
 
Trading? 90% tedium of flying around from A to B.
 
And the lessons haven't been learned.....
 
NQ adds 'wrecks' which are also 90% tedium of flying around looking for them....

Hi Noveans, 
 
A big update has been released today! Dual Universe is now in Beta 1 r0.22.4 version and you'll find the changelog below: 
 
New Features
Emotes are here! /Bow, /Clap, /Point, and /Wave are now implemented. Type the dedicated emote command into the chat to watch your character move and communicate with others!  [Transponder] Allows activating transponders with matching tags to share their exact positions via radar.
Improvements
[Navigation] New option now enables/disables mark interactions with the mouse to avoid tools being visually obscured. Players can now "pocket" small constructs like speeders using right-click > Construct > Construct Compactification. Improved performance in cluttered areas such as Districts. When copy-pasting voxels using keyboard precision mode, SHIFT now gives priority to the previously pasted vertices. [Rendering] Various global water improvements. [Loc] Added and fixed localization for all languages. [Market] Various Market polishes. [GUI] Added “Owner type” filter to the inventory. These settings are saved when using custom filters. [GUI] Added a “Drop Selected Items” button to the inventory container beside the “Erase Dynamic Properties of Selected Item” button. [GUI] Added linked container tooltip regarding distance and max range on the respective inventory tab. [EULA] Added links to the website based on language region. While the link tool is active, right-clicking an element in build mode will now display a "Remove IN Links" and "Remove OUT Links" to facilitate the deletion of links without raycasting them in a 3D environment. Useful for heavy-duty link management in large factories. [Industry] The industry metalwork conveyor belt now animates. [Lua] Added support for position/rotation element introspection [Lua] Added engine tags Lua introspection [Lua] It is now possible to edit Lua local files (in Game/data/lua folder) [Mark] Displays correct icon for distant constructs. [Gunner Seat] Displays correct icon for distant constructs.  
Gameplay Balancing/Changes
Flashlight state is now transmitted to other players. [Radar] Basic Lua functionality is enabled for long-range radar. [Radar] Uses more precise position for nearby constructs. Virtual scaffolding projector is now tier 1. Logic operators are now tier 2. [Container] Added sort dropdown in containers views (sort include by names, scale, stack mass, stack volume, tier, and quantity, in both ways for alls) [Container] When a sort or filtering is active in a container, empty slots between 2 non-empty slots are not displayed. [Container] When a sort or a filtering is active in a container view, inner swap in that container is disabled. [Container] When moving an item from container A to container B: if destination is the same item (same type, same owner, and same instance), move that item into that specific stack. (behavior already in place, just to confirm that case) if the destination is empty, move that item to that slot. if destination is not the same item, move that item to either the first slot of container B that contains that item, or the first empty slot found. (Previous behavior was a "failed to move item" error) [Container] Container scrollbar now uses the last non-empty slot to compute the total element in inventory, (plus a little buffer of empty slots to ensure that you can still move things within a container). That means that if the last non-empty slot is at position 80, the scroll bar will not go to a position 2000, but block to at max position 100. (number depends on the number of columns in the container, but always allow to see at least 1 line of empty slots) [Container] Container scroll offset is always a multiple of the number of columns, this allows slots to always be displayed in the same column at any scroll offset. [FTUE] Disabled all UI lock functions again to prevent some players from being stuck. Will be fixed later. [Dispenser] Using a paying dispenser on organization cores now gives the Quanta to the Super Legate.  
Crash Fixes
Fixed a crash by forbidding asset tag edition when a construct or element has no owner. Fixed a crash when receiving element update from the server. Fixed a random crash when servers take time to answer.  
Bug Fixes
[Settings] Fixed an error in the FOV computation. You may want to check out your FOV settings after updating the game and before playing. Fixed the tool model that clipped through the player’s hand. [GUI] Fixed and improved the PILOTING input reminder. [Organizations] Fixed a bug where organization applications could not be accepted or rejected if they had more than 480 characters. [GUI] Fixed input number state by default in the organization search panel. [GUI] Fixed vertical misalignment on item slot nodes [GUI] Fixed line clamp overflow bug on item slot nodes [Market] Fixed instant sell/buy being partially executed when there is more than one price. [Market] Fixed instant sell/order stats when there are not enough items available in the market. [Districts] “Fake” Surrogate VR Stations in the starting construct are now legitimately fake. [Ore] Asset of Thoramine ore has been added so it’s now minable. Fixed a bug where destroyed linked Container was still working. Fixed an exploit with an active container. Restore linked Container state when leaving surrogate/tutorial. [Chat] Fixed messages not being received if sent while the receiver was loading the game Fixed tool icon and sound when switching tools [Containers] Fixed filtering by categories in market container  
Known Issues
Windows certificate is not up to date. This issue will be fixed soon. This may prompt a warning message for new players during the first install. It can safely be ignored. Uninstalling the game directly from Windows will leave the game files on the disk. Please use the game dedicated unins000.exe uninstaller located in the game directory for that. This will be fixed soon! Numerous French and German localization issues have already been spotted and we’ll fix them soon. In some situations, you may not be able to place a Static Core Unit on your claimed Sanctuary Territory. An error message saying that it's too close to another construct is displayed. This may occur due to being too close to a District. Trying again from a further distance should solve this issue for now. A random rendering crash can occur under some conditions due to low GPU/driver resources. Voxel crashes may occur due to low disk/memory. [PvP] There are slight differences between radar and 3D marker distance displays because radar uses the construct center as an origin point while 3D markers use play position. [SFX] Only blue fireworks currently function. [Industries] Talents that impact ingredients of recipe products are not displayed client-side, but the recipe updates with the server recipe when starting. Elevators currently placed “flush” to the floor will function with less efficiency. This will be fixed in the next patch

Hello Noveans!
 
We would like to thank you for your patience during the past few weeks as we have been incredibly focused on getting you all into the game. While we know there are still a few edge cases out there, we hope you’ve been enjoying your time in Dual Universe!
 
A burning topic is known bugs surrounding duping, and their exploitation. We’d like to offer some clarifications on this. 
 
We are aware of some bugs that were allowing players to dupe items and resources, and we are actively investigating  these. The process is however slow and labor intensive. Given how much time is involved, and how severe the outcome is, we want to make it clear that we are taking all exploits very seriously and they will carry heavy sanctions for abuse cases up to and including removal of player accounts and permanent bans.  
 
We have a zero tolerance policy towards cheating and exploiting, as is clearly laid out in our Code of Conduct.
 
For those who have encountered these bugs and already reported them, we thank you. There will be no sanctions on those accounts. We may balance gains if deemed necessary.  For those who have been knowingly abusing bugs, you have 48 hours to report your activities via a ticket here: support.dualthegame.com - your duped proceeds will be removed, but no further action will be taken. Please select Gameplay in the first form drop-down, select the “Rules & Policies” > “Exploits” category and use the subject “Self Report” For those who continue to exploit, and do not report it, your account will be banned without notice upon completion of our investigations.    
While every person has their own sense of fun, it is important to remember that this is an MMO and that rules must be enforced to keep play fair and even. 
We thank you for being a part of the Dual Universe  beta and for helping us keep the game fair and entertaining. 
 
Sincerely, 
The Novaquark Team

Now *that* is a financial commitment worth giving more than a few moments' consideration. Respect.
