    How will the scoring system work ?

    My only concern...Point/Reward/Scoring system. How do you reward somebody knowing you can abuse the system since day 1 with alts, org alts, friend's alts, friend of friend alts, etc?!!?!

    Scoring/Value system will have problems if with 1 account you can Create Missions and Vote multiple OTHER accounts on daily basis. How will the scoring system work ?

    You have to participate in the mission to rate it, you can't just give somebody 5 stars without doing something.

    Plus I imagine that word of mouth will spread of anyone abusing it, to be avoided.

  2. I noticed the other day while troubleshooting Factorio that EQU8 made some rules in my firewall. Not unusual, most game I've installed do... for inbound connections.

     

    Only EQU8 made rules in the outbound direction in my firewall. Not even other Anticheats I've installed have outbound rules.

    So I'm curious as to what it does, and why it's needed. I know you probably don't know the answer, but maybe you can bring it up with EQU8.

     

    Also the link for the faq has the comma in it, which is breaking the link.

    NQ has already said that weapons damage will be an area of effect - spreading from the original impact point, by how much I have no idea, but its already on the drawing boards ;)

     

    They said this for ship combat. Damage will spread out and damage multiple voxels, allowing for eventual holes to be made by peppering the same spot.

    They did not mention anything like this for Player combat. Of that, all we know is that it is a lock and fire approach.

    So Iron/bronze wont get anything or what?

    I was suppose to get:

     

    Game at launch (PC Digital)
    Thanks in the credits as early backer
    "Iron Founder" Forum Title
    2 DACs (value:36€ post-release)

    And you'll still get that. You just won't get anything extra from the supporter packs.

  5. Alright, you said you got Gold originally, right? Well that means you get...

    Hades beat me by one second, lol

  6. I don't really think Destiny 2-esque Public Events are something they're going for.

     

    There's also already going to be asteroids with resources, so that means there will be some with rare resources.

     

    What does IA stand for?

    o7 good to see a thread from you guys finally up. Its always good to see more Merc groups that have their shit sorted step into the public light.

     

    We had a thread up.

     But March 29 is a bit dated, don't you think? Figured it was time for a new one.

  8. The Freelancers

    Who are we? Why am I making another post? What do we offer? How do I join? Who made that amazing logo? All these questions and more to be answered below

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Who we Are

    The Freelancers are an elite band of mercenaries, willing to take on any contract, if the price is right. Some of our previous exploits have been deemed:

    "Stupid", "Fool-Hardy", "Damn near unbelievable", and "Straight up Illegal".

    I think it fits well.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Why am I making another post?

    Well the last one was in March, We need new members, and I'm bored. Maybe you can help with the last two?

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Services

    We're up for hire. Whether it's protecting a shipper, hunting a traitor, building a -insert construct-, or watching you shoot your laser at rocks, as long as the price is right, we can do it. You can even specify the amount of people you need. Perhaps you need a gunner for your ship. Maybe you need 4 to assassinate 1 person. You might possibly need 20 to topple an org of 100.

     

    Step 1: Click this. Step 2: Follow what F.R.E.D. says.

    (Step 2A: If F.R.E.D. is dead, mention me)

     

    Well, we can't help you with the last one. But perhaps you can help us help you.

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Recruitment

    Now we come to the title of my post.

     

    We're looking for, well, really anyone. Fighters, Builders, Loners, Team-Players.

    If you want to join an org that doesn't control you, simply click this here fancy hyperlink to be taken to our discord server.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Who made that Logo?

    Special thanks to Comrademoco.

    See you on Alioth and beyond.

    Commander out.

  9. It's been awhile since I posted this, and since then I realized it was arbitrary.

     

    I actually had a classmate do a small, extraneous speech on why we should switch to metric, and part of his argument was this chart.

    Now that's just... bonkers. Metric is on the right for a comparison, by the way. This got me thinking.

     

    "Why do we always have to make things weird and complicated."

     

    Fun Fact, did you know the speed of light is 16,999,000,000,000 Twips/Second?

  10. None of those are Player VS Environment, which is why semantics are important. The versus would imply conflict. What conflict is there in building a casino that isn't player conflict? There aren't any earthquakes you have to build up to code for, there's no acid rain which you have to shield against. Skill training is done over time anyways, there's literally no way it could be construed as vs the environment, or enemy.

    In what dev diary did they discuss PVE?

     

    or in what Kickstarter update post did they talk about it?

     

    Is there a page on their site talking about PVE plans? no? I see.

     

    Now based on the lore however, one might assume that in an expansion we could see Hostile AI. JC is an AI specialist after all. But to talk about people getting into the game day 1 as a solo player who is ready for some PVE, there are going to be some real dissapointed folks. This kinda false hype is in-part how No Man's Sky happened. (EDIT what i mean here by hostile AI is that there might eventually be PVE in the form of an in-game hostile AI based on the lore, since its part of the lore's background that AI was a threat on-earth and that they were banned).

    PvE content is essentially PvP content without (or limited) other player involvement. Such activities include exploration, building, mining and salvaging. However, it is likely that during PvE activities you will encounter PvP content (since negotiations are also PvP), for example being attacked by pirates or being questioned by a border patrol. 

     

    I think you two are arguing about two different types of PvE.

     

    Wizard is talking about Player VS. Enemy

     

    Jaco is talking about Player VS Environment

     

    Both PvE types aren't gonna exist until after launch though. PvEnemy for sure, they've stated that definitively.

     

    PvEnviro is not exploration, builing, mining and salvaging. PvEnviro would be limited visibilty due to a storm, landing on a planet and there being freezing temps, reducing move speed, Acid Planets, Lava planets. Maybe it could be flying, because you're fighting the physics environment, but that's a stretch.

  12. I believe the new packs will be slightly more expensive. I.E Silver founder got you 11 DACs, Beta, soundtrack, forum title, thanks in credits. But the Silver supporter pack might only have 9 DACs + stuff for the same price.

     

    Reason for this being the earlier you arrived, the cheaper you get it for.

     

    This is just speculation on my part.
