Well i'm not going to say i know what your thinking..... but.... i know what your thinking...

I just immediately thought of the matrix there. Engines like that would be fantastic, I tried to look for a mod to get them in another engineering space game but nothing worked like i thought it would sadly. I like the idea of gravity being different for each planet, but i'm more interested (if there are such things) if asteroids will have gravity on them or not, and if the gravity will be different depending on where you are on the asteroid or how big it is. SE doesn't have any grav on asteroids and it makes me sad

I'm just worried that travel around the universe is going to be like what elite had or space engineers jumpy jumpy mechanic. I don't mind what it is, as long as it's fluid and doesn't break immersion. Elites method to me felt backwards and difficult to grasp to people who didn't research it. Space Engineers is too Jump and Wait, Jump and Wait and doesn't give a smooth feeling. I don't mind spending that extra time cruising in the open space as long as it's seamless, fluid and immersive.

I'm going to throw my 2 cents in here and say any in-game VOIP should be at the lowest of the low priority over anything. As a player who's played many many games that have Voip i've always chosen TS over them. Don't get me wrong, i don't dislike in-game voip it's just that it doesn't beat TS at all in anything other than immersion and talking to people who you don't know. Local chatting between friends is not the priority i would put on voip but talking to strangers is, people who know each other will generally always have a method of communicating outside of the game and will prefer that, but strangers you meet will have nothing. A system i would like for voip would be a 'sizeable' area around the player (that can be totally muted too) that allows listen and chat, so the player chooses both the distance they can hear and speak. If players are outside this area then they could have a form of notification or speech bubble above their head indicating that they are speaking within your hearing range but you have selected to not hear that distance. People speaking within your range could maybe have a notification too so you know who's talking to you. Improvements to equipment could possibly increase the range you can talk hear at. I personally won't use any in-game voip other than to talk to strangers on the odd occasion as i'm a voice-activated TS user and muting one to talk on the is bother to me.

It's always the quiet casual ones that you should worry about... You never truly know how good they are till you p*** em off and they come at you with the fury of a thousand suns..... But yeah, Welcome... If i pirate you in the future, i apologies.... maybe..

Hi and Welcome. Oh you are completely right about this looking like the way Space MMO sandboxes (and every other genre its wrapped up in) should be. I hope it can be pulled off Also, i'm not dutch but i have some dutch friends if that counts... ofcouse i'm not against having one more dutch friend... *cough cough* * hint hint*... ... ha

MUTINY!!.. Everyone loves a good bit of mutiny in the morning.... or is that just me?

Welcome... I had a quick spy of your website to see what you're all about since you were kind enough to link it.. But unfortunately I don't speak spanish... But i noticed a nice 'Star Citizen' ts channel, so i guess we might get a lot even with a language barrier ... Unless i pirate you in game... no promises though..

Well I know what I'm going to build then... a big 'DieSun'... or 'KillSol'... and put it just around the orbit of your nice planet .... no evil intentions here at all btw, i just like things with big weapons that destroy planets ........................... he... he.... he...

You've sent me on a rollercoaster of emotions in your first post.... You suddenly got my hopes up about a potential download link I had not seen and then vylqun slashed them in an instant... +1 for post effectiveness

I heard something about a pirate base in an asteroid field... I like this idea... But i can't promise there'll be no... mutiny.. <evil laugh>

Have you got some.... some more... DU... just a little?... ha How long have you know about DU without telling me?,

Happy to have you here, can't wait to play with you when the time comes... or maybe pirate everything off you, i haven't quite decided yet.. But yeah, welcome. Enjoy your stay

Ha.. I'm just going to sit and wait for the evil music to start playing in the background....

I'm going to say hello, and let you know that through no fault of my own have I been laughing at the smug looking avatar you have... I just can't look at it sensibly... Is there something wrong with me ?

I don't know if I should start the evil laugh now.. or later ?

Obviously yourself for asking..

I too am curious about this. I like how SE does it's destruction so if it's anything like that then I'm golden. I don't want them to just disappear in a pop vanish action once there HP is up. Dynamic damage on point would be awesome... if that makes sense

I like you NQ-Nyzaltar, your whole post was just full of awesome. Ingame screens - Check Custom Tech - Check Copy/Paste - Crucial Flying to planets - Check Stargates - Significant One thing i'm wondering now is if we will have the ability to go where ever we please, or if star gates/ jump drive will be mandatory to get out of the solar system ect, or can we just AFK fly straight for 10 hours and leave the solar system that way?.. EDIT:... SPYING AND TINFOIL HATS!... if i wasn't sold before i sure am now!

Well I don't want to see this game die and want it to be the best it can be because so far from what I've seen it incorporates all the best parts of different games I play, even though I have very little knowledge in anything game developing yet or anything, I will help! So either option you go down I'll still be sitting here throwing money at the screen till you accept it. If you kickstarter it or just plain sell it on your own market place or go behind a big investor ect, I'll still be buying a copy, already roped in a few people who like scifi space... ect games and they want to buy it also. the user base is there and the support as DU looks to be a very ambitious game, pushing the already pushed space scifi ect game genre. Space building games have always, since I can remember, been at the front of any games preference I've had, and DU looks to want to storm into my personal time with a sledge hammer. Like i said in another thread, there will only be one universe.. Dual Universe.. Everything else will just be AFK..

I was looking through the images that you've uploaded and noticed this little thing here.. What is this in the air?.. Is that a destroyer, a moon, a asteroid.. what is it... the curiosity is too much!.. http://i.imgur.com/6zb6Bg9.png EDIT: Changed the image to a link as it was MASSIVE..

I wouldn't be against some form of quick travel around the universe, but i think it has to have it's limits and uses. It shouldn't be relied upon for travel because i think it would be immersion breaking if done incorrectly. I'm thinking of something like WoW and gryphons. It's always faster to travel there yourself and you get to see the sights but if you don't want to spend the time travelling you can join a auto-plotted course or path that you follow totally safe from anyone to your destination. I would like this...

I was expecting you to mention screaming there... But i'm so glad that you didn't, because i'm going to be sneaky sneaky and you won't get the chance..

Not even a little return?... just a little bit?.... God i feel like a crack addict, The only thing i've done for the last several hours is be on this forum looking for all the information i can get.... I think i have a problem.... ha

Yeah no, i'm sorry you've got that wrong... When i play this i'm only going to have one universe and it's going to DU... the other universe is just going to be AFK..
