  1. Well I believe somewhere Aetherios mentions how Dual Universe is something of an outlet for testing out how this creation will work. I feel the devs are looking for this kind of creativity to fill there game with. Using EVE as a parallel, there's so much player driven lore now that it's nearly impossible to image that game solely based on what the devs created. Besides, all this writing doesn't really affect you so why bash on it? Reading this stuff and trying to imagine the setup of Alioth the way Aetherios is envisioning it, is not only a great way to pass the time but it's akin to reading a good book that I hope will never stop.
  2. I think most of the economics of the game will have to be determined by the alpha/beta results. @Lord_Void your right about the devs being a little vague on the subject, but the use of bots at the start might be the best solution. It would be a little weird if we started out with money only because it breaks the lore of waking up from an ice box with nothing, however it IS a game so I'm not too opposed to the idea of it.
  3. Let's find a way to hack into the Arkship and bypass all that time it would take to learn stuff. I'm sure that would be a thing, riiiiiiiiight?
  4. Ah... That leads us back to the risks/dangers of trying to build even one star gate then because then an org would basically have/need enough for two in a relative short amount of time to really get that built asap. I wonder if the gate itself will act as a space station with automated defenses upon it, and where people can hang out casually or only as a large device used for travel with little to no defenses! Just thinking about all this crazy stuff is making my head spin now.
  5. OHHHH, the aliens in KOTOR. I recall reading something like a forerunner type alien race as well. They were responsible for Centerpoint Station and the Corellian system having like 5 perfect planets in it, crazy lore... I wonder tho about sending the probe as a beacon, what's to stop people from using probes as temp star gates and abusing that kinda system? It sounds way cheaper...
  6. After you shit yourself. Now that would be a great sfx in the game, lol.
  7. Heyo! This community is pretty warm, welcoming, and weird. You'll find everything from people who really want to file paper work and be on the tedious side of building an in-game government and the other group who wants to just blow shit up. You'll fit in just fine.
  8. Woah no way, is it possible to find that stuff on wookiepedia? I think in EVE's lore, the first star/jump gate had something devastating like that happen to the original one. Hence why earth isn't a possible destination and even the local area around the first gate will kill you. Pretty neat concepts...
  9. just assign one guy with a rusty spoon to dig for weeks to allow the whole org to attack! mwahahaha, its full proof!
  10. I was just watching the devs build an underground area and was toying with the idea that an attack from an enemy org underground could be way more devastating because would you even think of being attacked from below like that? Then those fusion reactors would, for the most part, be only protected by small infantry turrets. Game over! But on the topic of renewable energy, I agree that using solar power for military installations would be terrible but for low-end farming and mining perhaps more beneficial. Just gotta protect em with the right amount of defenses!
  11. This org... haha I cant be mad at it! You will pay your citizens in candy or puppies?
  12. Same. But if this is sort of the "base" design, and if we only go off what the character customization is currently... then it has the potential to be kick-ass. I also wonder about the pet levels and if it changes appearance (additional legs, eyes, etc...) or if it will only be a cosmetic thing like rusty v shiny. Personally, I would love to see a sort of Halo ODST inspired helmet and visor set up in game. I'll model and script it myself if I have to!
  13. I thought the Alpha Team member outfit was in RL... SOMEONE FIND IT FOR ME, plzzzzzzzz! I found it...
  14. I NEED TO HAVE A CAPE LIKE LANDO CALRISSIAN IF I'M PART OF A TRADE ORG THO! This wasn't part of the deal...
  15. Dude, sweet! I didn't realize having a gif was possible for a signature on these forums. Good to know!
  16. It sounds relatively easy for doors and elevators to be implemented into the game... they do have some concept art for basic doors that slide open and such. An elevator would be perfect for deep mining, instead of just making the surface area of the whatever a giant crater.
  17. Good point. I tried to find if the RL star Alioth had any planets and such but to no avail. And jumping 10,000 LY is HUGE. There are so many other possible closer (habitable even) planets closer to the earth but then again... we don't really know the damage that neutron star did to our home system and any neighboring systems, like Alpha Centauri. They could just not want any players trying to find earth, lol.
  18. Maybe the AI did something to prolong the journey? lol OR! Aliens.
  19. I could be wrong... but. Most of this is still up in the air. I'm sure there will be different damage multipliers for hitting limbs, torso, head... -weapon types might play into armor, so only high lvl stuff would create 1hks -this is where those character skills/stats come into play as well as distance and weapon type -rolling like in darksouls would be great, lol -not too sure about the rest, sorry bud
  20. I understand the reason behind the server wipes for the alpha and betas... Haha at least I'll get a good do-over and know what to actually do after I try the beta! Time to set back and enjoy~
