    Of course we wont mate. Who else will keep track of all those obscure details? You keep doing your thing man.

    I think, if this thread can get a 100 votes we can go ahead and start using the popular vote?

    I dont really get that stuff, just one question is my email address open to view by anyone but NQ?

    Flying a solo ship solo, possible.Flying and efficiently operating a multi crew ship, highly unlikely. Automating entire production lines with no player input, sounds highly improbable in the vision of DU. Automating factories while you are offline, not going to happen. LUA scripts will stop working when you log of. Unless you share them with someone you trust who is near the element running when you are too far or offline. Automating base or ship defenses when you are away, maybe. The core vision of DU is a player generated universe. While some scripting is part of that vision it wont be taken so far that you can remove the human element completely. JC said that player interaction is very important to him. You can do all those things in game but it will require either multiple accounts or other people helping you.

    Not that I'm a big fan of dual boxing, I'd be pretty impressed to see a 1 man army operating a multi crew ship. Direct comparisons to EVE dont work with DU.

    This is a very nice initiative. The DU community is lucky to have people like you. My hats of to you and the people helping to bring this to life.

    For what its worth I think you are of to a good start. You have a clear objective on your member requirements.

    Good point, but isnt that just semantics?In effect you do get "teleported/transported" to the other side. I know lore etc, but practically they do the same thing. For example yes. It should also help in reducing careless behaviour, which is a good thing in my opinion.

    Gebus I must not be visiting the correct websites.A furry is something I vaguely know of but I had to google brony. Don't you just love the internet.

    I agree.It makes for a more intelligent and tactical game. Like a mix between risk and chess. Also if you can reach the other side of the planet under 5 minutes the distances involved become trivial. Its a bit difficult to explain but my thinking is if near instant travel is a thing it is easy to be reckless and contemptuous of the game world. Thats not to say that teleportation is always bad. I like the way AO and TR did it. Or how Stargates are planned for this game. Its a cost/time/efficiency thing.

    I can assure you that this visitor wont throw the first punch. I look forward to attending this expo. It sounds like a lot of fun.

    Hello! There is always room for an org like this. Your particular style of services is always in popular demand. Good luck.

    No

    Oh Ok. So its pretty much what you see in EVE or WoW to name 2 known examples. I'm a default user myself but I know lots of people like custom UI's. At most I'd pay a DAC for something that is out of this world. Good luck to anyone who decides to put in their payment details on an unknown 3rd party website... Thanks for the answers.

    I wish you the best of luck. I do have some questions, -How will you establish trust? How do we know you wont be running a Ponzi scheme? -How would you hope to raise capital so you have money to lend? -If the economy takes a dive, what is your plan to deal with a bank run? It would be pretty impressive to see you succeed.

    Goh, I dont see why we should have a plan. Besides no plan survives first contact. On the subject of alts, I'm a 1 character kind of guy. Playing alts doesnt really do it for me. In all my years of playing MMO's I've only made 1 alt, so yeah. If it doesnt conflict with NQ's vision I would like a function to tag my character offline, for when I want an hour to myself.

    Hmm, supersonic speeds aside, wouldnt a space hop get you where you need to go fast? I think its called a parabolic jump. And me personally would much rather have a sound que when something breaks the athmosphere. Sounds like sonic booms are nice but when you start hearing them too much it becomes annoying very fast. I think it was GW2 that had this skill with a bird call. Very cool in video's but once in game it got old very fast because you would hear it everywhere all the time.

    wubalubadubdub!

    I have a question about these custom UI's. Is this the same as a moddable UI? If so, would this mean someone makes one and the rest of us just download it?

    There shouldnt be a problem with linking an outside source I think. Now if you would start spamming links that are completely unrelated you might run into some problems. I really dislike those;" This is how my sister started earning 800 (currency) from home <link>" Thank you for sharing the link, the more people that can do these things the better.
  21. Hotwingz
    Nice, we can always count on you keeping the books Anasasi. I think you earned the title Master statistician by now.....

    Last time it was asked the answer was that Alioth would be 100 kilometers in diameter. JC said he was happy with that size and didnt see much benefit in gameplay making it any larger. Subject to change of course.
  23. Hotwingz
    Seems like colonists is "winning" at the moment.
  24. Hotwingz
    We can only hope.Would it be wrong of me to wish for giant worms? Preferably in a desert biome.
  25. Hotwingz
    Procedural generation has its downsides. But for a game like DU its the only way to get things done. I do like the current biomes, big fan of desert landscapes. The only thing I am missing at the moment is some particle effects. JC did say that they hope to add more alien biomes the further we go away from Alioth.
