I'm okay with the scam possibility. If you buy something out of real money or have DACs, lot of them, on you, just use it directly or put at a bank if you're confident on them. It will create a real economic system, DACs will be like cash or BC, you need to put effort not just by buying or getting those but also by using them wise.

I seriously doubt it. It could be possible with a process converting your polygons into voxels (I mean reproducing the shape out of coordinates), as for the texture it's even more difficult to export them all at once with the polygons to stick onto voxels.

@Phroshy
For the construction I disagree. All the game system is to work in teams and/or to protect itself: you can land your ship somewhere hidden underground and create a heavy door upon it if you play alone. Other big park structures for orgs would be with shields... All that makes the game. Investigator should be a class too, they would seek who damaged something or killed someone (as cops for example) but with all the factions and territories there won't be just one kind of cop.

Yeah, it's not moving since a few days. All the big supporters applied on the first days, I think we might have to contact the video-game news websites not talking much about it. The US might being sniggering about the game for being French, with all EA and all these days.

I think keeping the server (cluster) all the time online, by changing one server amid the cluster as the others still run (some other buddies said that already here).
The other problem would be to keep changes while the game is still running 24/7, even though you are changing a server: you should do a backup of this server to broadcast the copy to change things on the true one and set it back after keeping the changes the copy underwent by fusing both server. Mind blow, not to mention how those two changes fused could actually do that without concordance issues.
Server technology is a real matter, we will hear about it more I hope.
-
I think it should be stated clear the difference between actual organisations, alliances, syndicates, and fusion.
You just can't say someone can't start an empire if there is another, but empires might prefer being allies between them than serving republics.

Yes @DaphneJones I thought the same way. If you have time to play you make money, it has to be balanced so that real players really are rewarded. If you can sell your stuff you earned to pay your subscription, or be into an army or another service, it's worth it. (edit: you could actually steal some of the people's stuff, wether or not it had been bought with real money).

Excuse me?
It was a harmless joke.
Show me 1 post where I troll because good sir I never troll. Seriously go find it and call me out.
I said that only because its a running gag of yours, I saw it once before. Edited.

Okay so you want a game in witch you can't pay other things than your month fee? The thing is you can win your fee by playing the game but also use this money to trade within it. An organisation of 10,000 people not buying stuff with money will still be more powerful than another with even 2,000 with members spending 100k per month even by creating robots. Humans can do more than money I believe. Big organizations will be OP.

Lol you want to reward killers and punish victims? Good thing you have no say over real life systems!
There should be a possibility of reward, but also risk. Like if you kill someone and it's not exactly secret, you'll get flagged as someone who has committed a murder, and get tracked down. There are similar systems in most MMOs that track player killing players with skulls on the map.
There will be a bounty system. You know most of the time who kills you and report it and see who are the real serial killers (edit: this is an idea of mine). You could also make cops into your society, or intergalactic cops (edit: this was put forth by the team).

It's a single shard, not a single server. They can do rolling maintenance a few servers at a time.
Will they run their own server farms or use a cloud server service?
I heard the word 'cloud' as questions about servers were asked. I don't know much though, so there will be cloud normally but maybe also owned servers idk. Maybe a Q&A thread mentions that.

Remember, hamsters have little legs they need rest too.
This is how you
troll as captain obviousjoke about captain obvious questions? I've seen a post of yours like that in another topic. -
We asked that to the team. A weapon to destroy entire planets would be impossible, and over-cheated.
-
The distance between planets will be greater than shown in the pre-alpha build, more realistic. It will be long to travel but it all depends on your ship's size and/or technology.

Yes, the game and its philosophy needs more support into the media.

I was asking meself the very same question as yours. Groups of organisation it's already done and they are public (https://community.dualthegame.com/organization/csyn-cinderfall-syndicate). But to infiltrate another... well I mean I wouldn't like a DUA git with me in The Empire. Though, organisations are organised and with a hierarchy. Some buddy infiltrating might do it but will be a pure rookie (simple soldier), he will not know about secret operations and will probably be spotted before getting too close to the desirable infos. Also a spy rises suspicions as he leaves, all organisations needs an anti-spying unit.

I've asked for the possibility to create our own prefabs and it will be possible. Not in the alpha, maybe not in the Beta, but after this you will be able to create your own cockpit and else. It's in a galaxy far far away though, 2018 we are waiting.

*heavy breathing* oh man, I'm don gun' stuck in the US of A, wish I could have been there!
So did anybody steal some DAC's during the testHow did the building process feel, did everything seem to work the way you expected it to? Did you see people slap comical numbers of engines or other essential parts onto ships to see how they reacted?
It felt rather unusual (I mean it's a never before sensation with the voxel tech), but it was easy and natural (easier than z-brush or any autodesk 3D engine).
I've made a rather small ship (15 or 20 meters by 5) but I put 3 big motors at the rear. I've (I think others have come up with some sort of things like this) debugged already (I mean I've seen something unusual that shouldn't have happened): these motors are supposed to be fixes besides a plane (not sticking out of the mere plane rear), but I've actually managed to do so without purpose, one of the three was in the middle of the rear, though it looked good. I have just put one gyro with the right angle, so I couldn't say for other parts, also I haven't used the hover reactors.

Awesome stuff! Glad you guys got that experience.
Did they mention anything about the maximum users they've tested on that server you were mentioning? 5 people is fine, but have they tried connecting 50 or so yet? What was their max or did they not reveal any of that? I want to know if they've tried stressing the server even slightly yet.
Oh I see this topic is interesting too so here I go to try and give my answers I gleaned.
The servers (connected to merge into one big single shard) were not used I supposed. We were basically on a small server, that is, still not the final cluster. So we haven't seen how these fabulous servers are or will be. They didn't reveal the max capacity but as long as there are more server they will acquire to merge with the cluster, there will be more connections possible. I haven't asked about server testing sorry.
-
Awesome. You keep it up to date. This is gonna be a must-be-seen topic.
By the way, I don't see up there the organisations that are together (I mean allies) such as Empire and The Solar Empire.
Something else: Cynderfall is a syndicate that "organizations" join as "member(s)". So all these are in Cynderfall:
Diverse Unified Alliance (DUA)
The Aether, DUA, TU, SLI in the top 10 are all with Cynderfall.

Eve Online, Planetside 2 here
Its the innovative games that are the best.
Planetside 2 yeah. It works OK with thousands of players on a map that's impressive. And Vanu Republic sniper triangle lenses are so cool
Thoughts on these designs?
