Soarnir reacted to Dxeo in Haven Feed by Those Guys
Haven Feed is a service by Luminous available to all visitors of Haven! Ever wanted a feed of DU content in your discord server? well, look no further! Haven Feed is the perfect way to keep up with the latest and greatest DU content from your favorite outlets while also keeping your discord up to date with official DU tweets and videos. Haven Feed is a free service that utilizes discord webhooks to beam updates straight to your server, no bots required! Simply follow the guide below and you should be all set in minutes. It's as easy as typing one bot command!
Before we get started there are a few things to note.
The service is not guaranteed during discord outages. Each person can only have ONE webhook, running the command again will override it. Leaving the server will stop Haven Feed from working on the webhook you've set up. This service is offered free of charge to anyone and everyone. No bots need to be added to your server. The list of what the feed contains is in the #info channel in the Haven discord found here.
Guide:
Create a webhook on your server and copy the link to it. If you're not familiar with creating webhooks, follow the guide here. Navigate to the Haven discord found here. Run `havenfeed in the #terminal channel on the server. Follow the instructions posted by Jim, the discord bot in the server. If you've done everything correctly you should see a confirmation message sent to the webhook. If you require further assistance feel free to contact any of the Haven admins.

Soarnir reacted to NQ-Nyzaltar in Apology from Slaxx to NQ and the Dual Community
All right, this topic is going to be locked.
Surprisingly all these "TheSlaxx" defenders are fresh new accounts.
Apparently some think it's okay to create accounts just to try to strongharm Novaquark's decision, even if this was already discussed and explained in private many times.
Making it public will NOT change Novaquark's decision. If someone opens another topic on TheSlaxx to try to change Novaquark's mind, expect your account to be banned permanently from the forum without further notice. We don't have time to waste on this topic anymore. This practice of coming back again and again on a decision made by Novaquark will only make the situation worse.
TheSlaxx hasn't been banned for the shady practices regarding the Organizations.
He has been banned for what he did after.
"He has changed now" will never be a valid argument to rehabilitate him.
If we make an exception for him, we will have to make exceptions for everyone else that has a toxic behavior.
That's not gonna happen.
Best Regards,
Nyzaltar.

Soarnir reacted to NQ-Nyzaltar in Player Experiences and Feedback
Hi Primate and welcome on the official Dual Universe forum.
- The need of approval for your first post by a Moderator or a Community Manager has nothing to do with NDA.
You need to be approved once. After that, you won't need anymore validation.
Why resorting to such measure? Captcha systems gave mixed efficiency results to prevent spam accounts to spawn on the forum.
As we had Korean and Chinese, as well as English spam accounts on the forum in the past, this is the most efficient way to block them before they start polluting the forum (you would be surprised to see how many we have removed so far that never became visible to the Community
- You might think that current Supporter Packs are underwhelming. That's totally your right.
Sure, there are a lot less attractive than our previous Kickstarter Founder Packs, but they remain worth it in terms of value: their price alone is approximatively the total value of the number of DACs (tokens for months of playtime) included in it. That means that everything else if given for free (while cosmetics items - pets, outfits, skins and decorative Elements - have also a significant value too). The value of Pre-Alpha access is not even taken into account as we consider it a "bonus perk" for those who want to support the game beyond just buying it to play. As mentioned in the disclaimer of the Patron Pack, Pre-Alpha is not meant for those who want an immediate fun experience, as the game is not yet at this stage. Pre-Alpha is meant for those who really want to help us tracking bugs and give feedback on every aspect of the game in its current state. In any case, just wanting to play the game and have fun is perfectly understandable, it's just it's not the right time for that yet, and that's why we won't encourage players to aim for a patron pack if they're not interested in this early phase.
- Live gameplay is limited for the time being indeed.
That's pretty common in this early stage, especially for a MMORPG.
Again, if you prefer to play when the server will be up permanently, Pre-Alpha may not be the phase you want to join, and that's totally understandable.
- Subscription model is necessary. Server architecture to host the whole community in the same universe (no instances) and Quality Support cost a lot.
As this kind of cost can be, in a certain measure, proportional to the amount of players, it would make no sense to go Free-to-Play and even Buy-to-Play could be a risky move.
Hence, Subscription model is the most logical choice.
Best Regards,
Nyzaltar.

Soarnir reacted to Ben Fargo in DICE Den: Pitch an in-game game idea. Win prizes.
Flipmaze
A Flipmaze playfield is a surface divided into eighty one squares, arranged in nine rows and nine columns. On the ground between each square is a force field emitter, which can be activated to prevent movement between two adjacent squares. This means each square (except those on the outer edge) is surrounded by four emitters. The squares in the corners have two emitters and are open on the other two sides. These serve as the entrances to the playfield. The other squares on the outside have three emitters and a wall on the fourth side.
Each square is in either an open or a closed state. If an emitter is between two closed squares or between one open and one closed square, it is activated. If both squares are open, the emitter goes off and players can move between the squares. Changing a square from either open to closed or from closed to open is called flipping it.
There are two teams of three players. Two of the players on each team are mazerunners. The mazerunners start at the corners and try to reach the square in the middle. The third player is the flipper. The flippers operate a control panel overlooking the playfield. They push buttons to flip squares, to let their mazerunners reach the middle and to block the mazerunners on the other team.
The control panel has eighteen switches, one for each row and one for each column. When the flipper hits a switch, it flips all of the squares in the corresponding row or column. Note that it is the squares that flip, not the emitters. If an emitter is between an open and a closed square and both flip, the emitter will remain activated.
The game starts with all of the squares closed. As the flippers hit the switches, some of the squares will flip. The mazerunners move through open squares, trying to reach the center square. The center square contains a button. The first team to push this button wins the game.
A nine by nine playfield seems like a good size, big enough to be interesting but not overwhelming. However, when the game is actually played, we may find a different size is better.

Soarnir reacted to Kurock in DICE Den: Pitch an in-game game idea. Win prizes.
Voting is closed and the winning entry is Flipmaze by Ben Fargo
The voting thread and winning announcement can be found here:
The DU Community in-game game idea pitch competition. Welcome to the DICE Den.
Note: Please keep discussions about a specific ideas in a separate thread, this thread is for entrants. (Putting this first so that it is hopefully read)
What is it? A DU community competition, here on the forums, where anyone can suggest an in-game game and then the community will vote for their favourite.
(Scribbles are welcome)
Rules:
The game must take place in playing field of at most 110x75 meters with a height of 50 meters inside Dual Universe (give or take a few meters) and should cater for spectators. A single post may be made per person detailing their idea. Keep it under a few paragraphs, enough to get the idea across. Pictures (even mspaint drawings) may be beneficial, but keep them few. While this is more a sales pitch than a complete design, if you feel inspired, just DU it. Entrants are free to make assumptions about DU combat and how elements work in DU, if relevant to their game. Working in groups is allowed but only a single person can enter the group's work here and win the prize. The competition is open to all that can post on these forums.
Dates: Competition entries start on 1 February 2018 with last day for entries on 22 February 2018. Voting then starts on 23 February 2018 an will continue until 10 March 2018.
Prize: The winning suggestion wins a game key of their choice and DICE (https://community.dualthegame.com/organization/dice) will implement a prototype of the game and potentially add it to the roster of DICE games. The game keys can be chosen from: The Long Dark, Quantum Break, Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition, and Tomb Raider.
TLDR: Yo wazzup! I heard you like games so I want to put games in your games so make a game then I award you with a game in a game as well as a game that is not in the game. Kapish?
This competition is sponsored by Soarnir. Also feel free to drop by the unofficial DU discord (http://dualuniverse.chat/) and say hi.

Soarnir reacted to NQ-Nyzaltar in Forum Rules
We want this forum to be a place where everyone feels empowered to have an open and friendly discussion with us (the Novaquark team) as well as other community members. To help make this possible we have created rules we feel will keep things positive and ensure that proper netiquette is observed.
By posting on this forum, either publicly or through private message or other means, you explicitly agree to follow the rules and guidelines posted here. If you do not agree with these rules – in whole or in any part – then do not post. All members will be treated as if they have read and understood these rules and guidelines.
(I) Be respectful and courteous.
The Dual Universe forums and community site are provided for Dual Universe players and those interested in discussing topics directly related to Dual Universe. We understand that community members may disagree with each other, and even with us, but we expect opinions to be expressed in a reasonable and polite manner. It is important to maintain an atmosphere of civility and respect, so that all voices may be heard.
(II) Communicate constructively.
All communication, whether between players, moderators or Dual Universe staff, must be constructive. Posts without constructive commentary can distract from the topic at hand, reduce the visibility of valuable communication, and discourage others from participating in the conversation.
(III) Following actions are prohibited:
Posting off-topic replies or replies that are likely to drag the discussion off topic. Necroposting on old threads (unpinned threads in which the last reply is older than 2 months). Spamming on a specific topic. This includes creating multiple discussions on the same topic in the same or multiple forums. Cross-posting a specific reply. This is also a form of spamming. Posting an image without a meaningful text. A meme is not a response to a discussion. They are usually disruptive and can be easily misinterpreted. The same is true for animated GIFs. Calling out other players or community members by name to shame them for actions or opinions you may disagree with. Naming and shaming is not tolerated. Posting in any manner that disrupts an official thread. Official threads are topics created by the Novaquark team for the purpose of collecting feedback and opinions. Threatening legal action. Unfortunately, this kills all conversation immediately as we must refer all further discussion to our legal team. To preserve the conversation intact and unaltered these types of responses may be immediately archived. Trolling (provoking) people. Flaming (insulting, attacking) people. Picking fights isn’t a good way to make your point. It usually means you don’t have one and are just trying to cause trouble. Using profanity. Including creative spelling or character substitution to bypass word filters. Using the report system in an abusive manner. This is a form of harassment and a tremendous waste of time for both staff and moderators. Discussions and comments involving real life politics, ideology or religion. These can be incendiary topics and will usually lead to inappropriate behavior and uncomfortable situations. Publicly posting any private discussions, conversations, or other material between a user and a Novaquark employee (confidentiality policy). Refusal to follow the directions of Novaquark staff or representatives.
The use of an alternate account to circumvent a forum suspension is forbidden at all times. Additionally, the use of alternate account(s) to influence or misrepresent opinions is strictly prohibited. All forum accounts must adhere to the forum rules and Code of Conduct. Failure to comply can result in disciplinary actions against all associated accounts.
Violating these guidelines may trigger a warning, followed by either a temporary or permanent suspension of forum privileges depending on the severity and frequency of the violations.
(IV) The following actions may result in the immediate suspension of forum privileges:
There are some actions severe enough to result in immediate temporary or permanent suspension of posting privileges without prior notification. Serious or sustained offenses may result in suspension of not only the user's forum account but game account as well.
Threatening other members or Novaquark staff. No, “just joking’ is not a defense. We take this very seriously. Publicly revealing account or personal information of any person, community member or Novaquark staff. Posting harmful links pointing to viruses, malware, worms or trojans. Posting sexually explicit content. Including posting links to such content. Hate speech is not tolerated in any form. Attacking any ethnic group, religion, gender or sexual preference/identity. Promoting exploits, cheating programs, piracy or any sort of illegal activity. Attempt to impersonate Novaquark staff or another member of the community.
Violations of these rules may result in further steps taken with outside authorities or agencies. This may include your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and local or national Law Enforcement agencies.
(V) Abide by moderators and Novaquark employee’s instructions.
If you disagree with a moderator or employee's actions, do not discuss or challenge the matter in forum posts. Send an e-mail to forum@novaquark.com, and be sure to include your forum handle (name displayed on the forum), but NOT your password, and clearly state your concerns.
IMPORTANT: Forum content is moderated at Novaquark's sole discretion, and content may be modified, removed, or otherwise restricted by Novaquark employees and/or moderators.
Best Regards,
The Novaquark Team.
