    yeah theory-crafting planning etc, meta-game i understand that, meta-game is literally why i joined this game, but when everyone starts suggesting basically the mechanics be a copy of eve - the du limitations, it gets annoying. i almost never see any topic in DU without seeing EVE mentioned a dozen times. most people here are limiting du by what eve is, rather than what du could be.

    Hey so i was thinking as I slump in my chair contemplating stuff.
    what if one way you can disable a ship, with destroying voxels, and not overloading the server is to possibly do this.
     
    Lets say you send a rocket to a generator conveniently placed on top of the ship because someone still tries to make a star destroyer thinking its very original. 
     
    when the rocket hits the generator, it wont explode and randomly destroy the ship in peculiar places, but rather, it destroys the generator, which takes away a certain radius of voxels and elements around it., this way you cant just send a million rockets in the general direction of a ship, and have it randomly destroy voxels, but instead it will only be destroyed if people leave stuff on the outside alot. so if you send a million rockets, and the ship only has 1 generator on top, and nothing else with explosion capabilities, those rockets may hit the ship alot, but only the area around the generator is disabled by voxel removal., and if rockets and such forth hit non vital areas such as the hull, instead of making holes there, it will take away HP from the ship, as Twerk in a previous thread suggested.and to make the rockets always usable  and not obsolete because someone finds a way to use engines and stuff only inside and surround their ship with hull, make it so some stuff have to be on top of the ship to work, such as antenna, shield generators etc, this allows destruction by voxel removal without having so much that the server tries too hard calculating stuff.

    Ok, we see this happening Very, Very often, and im sure many of us would like a solution.
     
    PROBLEM: Double Posts
     
    SOLUTION: Ability to delete one's own topics, or the ability for mods to do so whenever they are finally welcomed to the forums
     
    that's all, have a nice day

    i mean, whats safer than a giant box building in the safe zone? 
    This alternative method provides the following:
     - Box doesn't care about who you are, Box offers a safe depot. You make it once, you never pay again for unlimited uses.  - Box is inanimate,so it doesn't know, or care whats inside.  - Box is in the safest place in the game.  - Box can't offer vulnerabilities of spying on what you have, Box is a box.  - Box can't out of nowhere make itself independent and steal your stuff, Box is a box owned by YOU!  - Box doesn't need fancy guns to protect its shell, Box has the developers protect it as long as Box is in safezone.  - Box is smart, be like box.

    Hey i just had an idea to upgrade the community portal a tad bit, why not allow us to be able to sort the members of a particular organization by their Pledge rank. That way people can see who is gonna be playing in alpha, who in beta and so forth, without having to look up each member individually?

    It's 2017, you know? And like, I'm trying to be more tolerant of people cuz you know, don't want the SJW mafia showing up at your door asking why you didn't let players express themselves through pony skins and wings so that they could call themselves "(whatever that white horse princess/queen pony was from that kids show)". So I would have to say just plz make it really expensive thatway if they ruin the "immersion" of the game at all they would have to pay the price with expensive monies. its a win win and if people don't feel it should happen just make a KOS policy on anyone with such possessions

    to add to my point, if youre in a chill organization, and the people who are backers in it like you, they can gift you some DAC's too, so be sure to make friends along the way

    DAC's will most likely cost alot less in DU than they will in for example PLEX from EVE. This can be contributed to the fact that every backer title comes with DAC's, theres atleast 8k backers, so right off the bat theres going to be atleast 16,000 DAC's in the game (not necessarily the market) but you also gotta consider that most people who backed are silver or above, so lets say 7k of the 8k backers got silver, that means 70,000 DAC's are in the game ATLEAST so theres not really going to be a shortage of DAC's. Ofcourse you will still have to work for the DAC but its not going to be way as grinding as for example again, EVE. further down the line there will be less DAC's in the game, but by that time you should be making enough to compensate for the increase of price and decrease of quantity.
