    This hypothetical game sounds incredibly boring and totally unsustainable for a long-term MMO. I don't think many people would be here at all if this was the vision that NQ had in mind, but luckily they've said from the beginning that one of the main driving forces behind the game is the political and socio-economic conflicts that will arise between groups of players. 

    I hate to say it, but DU is definitely not going to be your type of game if that's what you're looking for.

    I agree. Conflict is what makes the game fun and interesting. What makes it work for escapism is that the conflict is not "real", in the sense that you don't die in real life if you die in the game. Since your real life is isolated from the consequences, you can relax and enjoy the challenge.

    By the sounds of it though, this guy was banned (fairly) from a discord that is not even run by NQ, and expected "something" to happen because of it.

    As I said,  I think this person got what was coming to them, and I have no issue with this decision. I'm not sure exactly what he thought he would get out of posting about it on the forums.

     

    My point was that, due to a number of other unrelated events and decisions, the Discord server in question does have problems with regards to neutrality, fairness, and abuse by admins. So I think a proper decision was made here, but they are no saints.

    So I feel that this is probably a stupid question, but I can't find the answer anywhere. What is happening to the Cinderfall syndicate? Just yesterday it was the 5th biggest Org, but today it looks as though membership suddenly dropped. Is it people joining member organizations? Is it a purge of inactives? Are you transferring to a new org? No big deal, just extremely curious.

    It is a bit unclear at the moment. It seems to have been a combination of a political purge of sorts, as well as people and orgs quitting

    Thanks for the kind words @Msoul

     

    Like Anasasi said: ATV may be the most visible group (in some ways) but we didn't make this game happen. Every person who believed and backed the game contributed to it getting this far, and will help it progress into the future all the way to release. 

     

    We will do out best to test the game and help it progress. One small test for a game, one giant leap for gaming.

    Will ALPHA (not pre) servers be up 24/7?

    IMO it's like this

     

    pre-Alpha -> Let's see in how many ways we can break things

    Alpha -> Let's see how what we broke got fixed and gets stable

    Beta -> we should be good now, let's start playing and apply polish and more stability.

     

     

    So I'd venture to say we're months away from actually playing the game

    I think it's going to be a little more like this:

     

    Pre-alpha -> Does it turn on? Do the server technology and voxel engine work?

    Alpha -> Do the gameplay mechanics work? Are they fun? What is broken about them? (Iterating on more features as the Alphas go on)

    Beta -> We have it all pretty much how we want it. All the gameplay mechanics are implemented and functional. What remaining bugs do we have?

     

    So I don't think we will be actually playing the game in anything resembling a final form until beta in mid to late 2018. Just my view though

    The only way to have the alpha if you are not gold founder is to wait the supporter pack if i am correct .

    It hasn't been confirmed whether the supporter packs will allow access to alpha. They certainly won't allow access to the pre-alpha.

    or to become part of the ATV! 

    ATV consists of only 100 members and is already full, so unless NQ decides to expand it or removes some of the existing members this isn't really a viable path to hope for.

    Usually, its not a stretch for me to buy 1 full price AAA game a month, lets say its $59.99 USDs (idk what it is in euros sorry).

    So I thought about what level of backing I wanted, and what I personally wanted to invest to help the game. I knew I wanted

    as much possible play time as I could get, and I would have chosen Ruby for the lifetime, but I opted and decided for me it was more worth

    investing the DACs digital Sapphire provided (especially if they grow in value). If 4 years of playtime isn't enough time to start having what I put together

    to earn future DACs for me, I probably have bigger problems to worry about :/

    Anyways, I simply chose to not buy any new games for like 4 months, and I realized Sapphire wasn't REALLY that much of a loss for me, especially if the game

    wasn't coming out during that wait time anyway... Plus, its a game I've always wanted to see a reality, it's worth every dollar I put in to help make it a reality...
    I've even considered buying some IRL friends Gold founders or just spare Gold accounts that I could give out to friends as I saw fit. No one took me up in time though...

    Anyways, truth is, if you couldn't save $140 or so in the 9+ months (since just this year at least), I'd seriously say you have bigger priorities that you should be working on more than this game.

    I can relate to basically all of this. I went through the same thought processes, bought the same pledge for the same reason and had the same idea about gold accounts! Glad to see I'm not the only one :)

    Of course you say you are the winner :D

     

    But the game is who posts the "last" post.

    So I guess we have to wait until the forum gets closed x)

    by "winning" I just meant how many posts people have made here :P No one has won until the thread ends! Also, the last time I made a list like that being at the top was considered by some to be a disgrace. Times have changed though, and people don't really care anymore
