you do realize that NQ has all data right? they know when you log, for how long and with whom you interact (barter and inventory) wise. you do realize that they can check that easily? so for that to happen you would need to give your base to a friend and then not log in for weeks after some weeks, he then opens a support ticket and ask them to compactify it after some weeks NQ support tried to contact you (and you dont log in at all in that time too), they compact the base and your friend can fly it to the new location ok....seems...a bit far fetched. Meanwhile, in reality where people think more than 5 seconds about something, NQ could come up with easy peasy mechanics to prevent that: - make compacted BPs bound to planet / radius or much easier for NQ: drop it into a personal container in the safezone with unlimited capacity but only for those compacted bps (not abuseable as storage). then you have to manually transport the stuff from there. - check all data (who logged in when and who gave what items to whom) for all involved parties and if they use this in that way then have a system in place which checks for if he logs back in again after the bp is compactified and rdms is switched or not. then slap them hard and make their base unuseable. but you know, this is all useless. because NQ will not do anything about it for a long time and support doesnt care enough to help ppl resolve their issue. so all this talking is useless because such things would need to be done BEFORE you start a game, not afterwards. NQ made it pretty clear that you're fucked if this happens to you and there is nothing you or they can do to help you

and HOW exactly? I already debunked your first try

yes, because that's what support does. checking accusations and claims of ppl reporting them. and ofc coming back to you more than once. that's what you do in support. If there is no response then simply compactify everything and put it in my inventory - boom, jobs done. but nu uh, fuck you is better support obviously

ridiculus example? I am a member of your org you have a grudge against me You kick me from the org You open a ticket asking NQ to delete my base from your org's hex You tell them you're unable to contact me and you need that zone... Well uhm, guess what genius - NQ can actually contact me! mind blown so the logical consequence would be: ignore your delete request or resolve the situation with me in any other way (talking would be a start, but NQ doesnt do that) edit: and guess what, noone needs to be a rocket scientist to come up with such scenarios - that's why NQ would have NEEDED a way to deal with these kinds of things in the first place. They dont have that but that automatically means that support NEEDS to deal with that and not tell ppl to fuck off

Exactly this- but nu uh, leaving you with no chance of ever resolving this issue is obviously "appropriate" for some here. Well said!

lol yes, clearly attacked his character there lmao you did read the second paragraph where I outlined my arguments do you? so what's the game here then? 1) not doing anything and telling ppl to start new with a new org 2) not doing anything. That means ppl can NEVER ever even hope to get this situation resolved. So in fact, they're forced to do 1) 3) actually trying to get the data needed as support staff and resolve the situation

enlighten me, where did I "assault" ppl? Especially in the first 3 quotes because that's where I assume you spotted the assault. Where did I discredit ppl? I simply disagreed and pointed out WHY I disagree And now you spin it and imply some bs with extreme right and conspirators - which of course you will deny that you ever implied anything like that Dunno what you want really - maybe read the stuff ppl write and not jump to conclusions

still no arguments? well done

When you run out of arguments, just accuse the other party to be salty and you win every single time

Awwwwwww telling ppl what would be appropriate imo counts as being condescending nowadays. Lmao

nice try in insulting me random guy on the internet, try harder yes and that's why it would have been in NQs interest to have such mechanics and regulations BEFORE the start of beta. no use now tho, because you don't have any such rules and regulations. Ergo, as a paying customer and reaching out to support, it's not really hard for NQ to figure out that these things will happen and ppl will ask them to undo them. Support has all the info it needs (core ID, sees who built there, last login time, player ids and so on) so I don't really see a problem here - it's only really problematic if they dont have all that info. which would be pretty stupid. So yes, Support could ask the guys superlegate to write to this ticket too and then just help them and resolve it - THAT would be appropriate if there are no mechanics in place to resolve such issues in the first place.

Dunno what's worse. NQs answer or this one defending it. "Make a new org and build a new city" is appropriate lmao. Smh some ppl

Even NQ doesn't care about paying customers anymore and their buggy game and missing mechanics

if such a construct is in the pvp zone, it's not griefing tho - it may be rude and it may piss ppl off but it's fair game and certainly not griefing.

doesn't really matter what the mechanics are or what ppl think of as balanced or good mechanics when 10 ppl shooting at someone causes heavy lag spikes. maybe they should adress server issues first and then go from there (wow, I say this for how many years now? 6?)

Long time ago I measured dl speeds when just standing on alioth, doing nothing. Over the course of 8h du needed 5mb/sec. Constantly. That's 100% of my speed, for standing around. Glorious game indeed! Bring those million of players in please, I'll just laugh my ass off when DU can't even properly simulate 10 ppl

10 ships shooting cause heavy lag? In a mmo? With potentially "millions of players"? This is gold. Thanks for making my day. Cant stop laughing

Voted for over 250 for BOO obviously but I don't play at all xD

Yes, still hours of crafting for certain items. Yes there is still unclaimed space. If you reach space the only thing to do is go mining on other planets. Or build on other planets. Or trade on other planets. Same thing as on the starter planet. There's nothing else to do like pve or pvp. Last one is only arranged fights because few ppl play anymore and because if you're not stupid then pirates cant get you Objective: do whatever you want I guess. But in order to do that, du lacks major mechanics and just isn't there yet Theres only a 3 month sub, yes. But you can cancel it and play afterwards for free. Ppl do that since december

That's just because there are 5 ppl posting here xD

Not going to happen in any way shape or form. Gl simulating hundreds of thousands or million of bullets for everyone. There's a reason why sinulated bullets and twitch shooter are usually capped at 100 ppl or so

Yes. Soooooooo........ ?? What did they do? Who are they? Why should I give a damn about any of them? To me theyre just random dudes in a random game and like you described, they rp a bit. Ok. So what? Where's the catch? I too rp (25 years of dnd) but always find it hilarious and awkward in mmos.

Exactly the point. Then ppl dont do it solo but with 5 ppl. Or 20. Or 200. Doesnt really matter. Despite the fact that needing 200 ppl for a pve base would mean excluding small orgs (fine for me, but you know the lads....), it would also not matter much. Even if they put in a number limit and everything. Ppl WILL figure out how to blitz it and ppl WILL Farm it. And then it Boils down to: is this worth it to implement it for another grind? Dont get me wrong, I loved wh pve in eve but it was boring too

Who?

That's the problem really with PVE in a mmo. It may look hard at first and when implemented ppl are all over it because they always die and noone knows how to deal with the new threat. A month or two later you just chain solo double escalated C5 sites.....been there, done that. Pve gets really really hard to balance in a game like this so it'll end up - either too easy/no good quanta per hour and noone bothering with it - too easy and making ppl good money. So just a second grind like mining, a bit more exciting tho And yes, That's also true for this idea - not sure how to balance that. And thats exactly why Nq should first provide what was promised in the first place: atmo pvp, full pvp everywhere but the safezones, avatar vs avatar gameplay. Those three would be a major driver for sec companies and emergent gameplay
