I am shocked that we as settlers want to ensure survival and make the same mistakes here in the new solar system as we did in the old solar system. We are plundering the planets, arbitrarily stamping heavy industry everywhere, which is mainly intended for the machinery of war. We wage war on ourselves as usual. HELLO!? We all came out of the same colony ship in a suit and start a war right away? Why are looters and war criminals still allowed into the safe zone and to accept missions at Aphelia? These traitors to our society should be hunted down everywhere! No opportunities to buy or sell anything on the market, no safe zones to enter, etc. THAT would be credible content.

Maybe you should post the real ships from DualUniverse there. What does a metaship for PvP really look like at the moment? What do space freighters really look like? It's a big block of elements to be efficient. Style? NO! Because that would increase weight and dimensions and thus fuel consumption, as well as the chance of being hit, of course.

You need a subscription at any time, if you don't have one, you lose your territory/constructs after 4 weeks. Done. No taxes necessary.

It would be so simple, all areas have the same number of ores in litres that can be mined. For example, all areas always have all T1 ores, as well as an equal amount of T2 / T3 ores. Add PvP areas = T4+T5 ores The litres remain the same on all planets in the safezone, the PvP planets get +10% litres more/hour (as soon as the safezones on the planets have been removed). There will be no mega areas, but all areas will have T1 500L/hour (plus 10% for PvP planets) T2 350L/hr (plus 10% for PvP planets) T3 300L/hr (plus 10% for PvP planets) T4 150L/hour T5 130L/hour No one has to scan, no one is disadvantaged, new players have the same chance to promote the same with the basic values....

Sanktuary or a Spacestation.

There has been so much player feedback for so many pages now, isn't it time for a response or general reaction from NQ? I would like to have a discussion and not a soliloquy.

If they can't handle growth in the game, if there are so few players to generate it, the game concept in general has failed. Of course, NQ can still quickly turn the game into something else, but the actual intention seems to be no longer feasible at present and in the near future. It would simply be fairer to communicate this instead of continuing to make fun of the players. Some people really still believe that DualUniverse could work to this extent.

Who decides what is beautiful or ugly?

A tax is a punishment for all players, no matter where you introduce it now. We should stop shoving this tax at each other and avoid taxes in general. Man, whatever happened to the basic idea of this game?

In the case of DualUniverse I'm not worried, a metaverse is currently rather wishful thinking and still decades away from implementation - especially since DualUniverse is building in more and more limitations for the universe that shouldn't even exist. But it is very interesting that this post from more than 2 years ago was revived by you, because you can see very well from "what do we want to achieve and where do we currently stand". With Zuckerberg, I am more concerned that he wants to manipulate and abuse all people in his fantasy world even more than before. That makes me afraid of what the real future will bring.

Interesting video. But it is frightening that we are now making the same mistakes in the new solar system as we once did on Earth. We are ransacking the ground with every means at our disposal, plundering asteroids to mine the mineral resources there, the planets and moons look like Swiss cheese. We use the majority of these valuable resources to build war machines to exterminate each other. More and more is put into cannons, lasers, railguns, more and more powerful drives with extreme consumption of fuel and shields that devour huge amounts of energy drive us on. The war for the last raw materials is taking place on an ever greater scale, it is only a question of time until all resources are exhausted and the cancer of mankind "flees" to the next solar system to destroy everything there. The once peaceful mission of mankind has failed, we could not build a modern, peaceful civilisation as a new beginning, but are about to give mankind the death blow again. Since the 3-planet protective shield around Alioth-Madis-Thades was destroyed by the brutal, warlike subhumans, the last hope of the high-born, cultured society for peaceful coexistence also fell away. The last survivors of the peaceful high human culture are already setting out into the vast galaxy, scattered far and wide to find new solar systems in order to build a new culture of humanity, always fearing that they will be powerless at the mercy of the possessed, war-mongering subhumans.

That's right, bring in horses, donkeys and carriages!

Remove the territory tax and link the property to a subscription. As soon as the sub expires plus 4 weeks of error tolerance, the territory and everything on it becomes accessible for all to loot. if an active subscription is running, your own things are secured. So the players can keep everything and NQ gets support through the sub. Win-win and nobody cries.

I find PvP in DualUniverse to be extremely boring. you build the current meta and smash everyone else who doesn't use a meta. It doesn't need any real group interaction, it doesn't need any special skills of the players, except to max the talents in the skill tree - some clicks and then wait until they run through. I miss the possibility to build real battleships with a large crew, everyone has a task, is part of the team. I want to see myself on a cruiser, running all the way along to get into an on-board gun, then fire the target myself. i don't want to just press an identify-load-shoot button in the window, and then just wait for the ship in the window to be destroyed. i want to sit in a gun, turn it in all directions, see and direct the fire in real life. i want to target the enemy ship with the aiming cursor.... I want there to be real raids of players. One pilot, several players responsible for the different guns. Players who have to adjust the shields during the battle, other players who can use special steering engines for a quick turn. Players who can use special sun sails to bring the ship to an extreme stop. I want to run across the corridors of the ship and be afraid that the enemy has come in somewhere through the outer wall to fire at us from the inside - because a completely destroyed ship would be worthless. What a great thing it would be to have 20-25 players in a group on a large cruiser to steer the ship together. You could go further, there could be portable personal shields, there could be medipacks, there could be...so many things in PvP to improve the current situation....I don't want to sit in a single-seater metaship and fly through space for hours to shoot down a miner. It also doesn't help if I'm sitting in discord with 10 others and we're all sitting in a 1-seater metaship, flying through space for hours with 10 ships. It's just no fun.

Congratulations, that's how vultures think. If their "friends" had stopped coming back and wanted them to have everything, it would be easy for real friends to hand these things over to them. Many players understandably stop here in alpha/beta and just wait to see if the game will develop for the better, then maybe come back. So they have no right to these areas or the things on them!

Then they calculate exactly how much time they have to invest - and Quanta, to mine the same amount of Meganodes, now with the mini-game or with the mini-units. In the end, they stretch the time to generate ores in order to be able to build something from them by many times the current values and at the same time take quanta away from us. So the effort to get ores will be considerably higher. But well, if they have so much free time....I wanted to play a game in my free time that is fun and doesn't degenerate into a job. The MininUnits should actually relieve us, not burden us. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

True, just like with the player poll, whether there should be a resett of talent or not. Funny, the exact opposite was taken.

There is no hint in the skill tree (see photo) that the bonuses on ores only count on asteroids and not on e.g. the ore deposit on the planet surface (20L). New players might misunderstand this.

Has anything been changed with demeter in terms of the distance at which constructs can be seen? I no longer recognise the full extent of my base on the pts, but only a partial radius compared to before.

To be honest, I don't like this mini-game with the mining units. When I think that you have to do that with every one of these units, even every area - no, please don't! That's even more annoying than normal mining in the ground. I ask at least for an alternative possibility to this "game".

That is a very limited view. There is more than one black and white drawer, the world is colourful!

Providers who have a huge number of customers can afford to underestimate service or insult customers, so one or a hundred customers out of several million are of no consequence. In smaller companies, however, one should still be concerned about every customer, especially since a customer could also have 10 others in his acquaintance and rate the product well or badly there. But I also see in the market as a whole that "customer is king" has been just an advertising slogan for a very long time.

There are so many games where PvP is a lot of fun, whether you win or lose there. Is it so hard to take some of the content and mechanics from these games and add them to DualUniverse? At the moment, the PvP in the game is the worst I've ever experienced. Oh what I would give for the PvP from archeage with the ships to be implemented here in DualUniverse as a space variant. We would have a lot of fun!

another would certainly have been pleased if the ore could be mined before demeter.

Sanctuary is only a moon and then one with an atmosphere.
