Welcome to dual universe, if you have any questions about the game don't hesitate to ask them

Hiiiiiii, anything special you want to do? for robotics, join Robotic Industries, For mercenary, Join Bladesin mercenary corp, For federation building join federation Alpha and for all others , join Tranquility
 
Whatever you do, have fun and cyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

yeah but sadely not 60fps...

https://community.dualthegame.com/organization/the-dyson-sphere-initiative I made an Org page for any of you interested in building this thing. It in itself is not an org, but just a collection of people dedicated to one task 

Dont underestimate dedicate player. With time and resource they can do everything.

Interested also, And depending on the size of it it should be DUable, just need a star we can reach and determine the optimal distance from it to start building, or build multiple orbital star bases very close to the star to commence building the actual sphere, this sphere could begin small and have multiple layers, might start with rings and if those are feasible build from there. Suggestion, make an org named The dyson initiative and invite us all
 

Yeah, this would be a very interesting thing that me and my org are considering doing I bet half or more of the guys in my org would join in so that’s a good 60-70

If small org can compete with large org with robot and automation it is a broken feature. I know someone will say big org will monopoly but allow the small org have ability to compete with large org by robot/automation is a good thing ?

If small org can do it there will be a lot of one man Org and the good for being a large org will be gone. IT will be no point for being a large org.

You say only people can mine will decrease the OP of robot ?! I dont think so. in DU there is many thing to do with robot aside from mining. Battlebot, construct bot, transport bot, ... all make the life of small group easier and big group more bad.

Even with these arguments i agree with Gonk, and if a small org can build then and a large org can too but doesn't then the fault is in the large org. Immersion should include these possibility but then it will be relative, smaller orgs can only master a few robots due to their size and large orgs probably can fight out the complete clone wars sort of speaking.
 
So there is no breaking the game in this, just more fun. And frankly, if a large organization does not automatize because they have enough cannon fodder to get somewhere they have an inefficient mindset.

i can understand your argument Aaron. But remember the more you big the more problem you have to deal with with little gain. The big thing i think every large or extra-large will have to deal with is their unity and control their org.

Those downside isnt appear with small group as they are small so they can easily control and hold unity easier than big org. As you say what you think can hold small org to build and master a number of robot small than a big org ? Dont underestimate dedicate player. IF there is a hole to exploit people will and always will try to exploit it.

There is no best way, but cookies always work. Also having a plan helps, having a plan people like, works better. And as always being already big helps to get people who want to be relative safe or think being in a big org makes the org provide for them, so being big helps too. But then you need to get big first.
 
In my experience every org build prio release has a chance to never get actual an org. If you really want to grow, be a member of another organization first. Lets not build a million one man orgs but think first about joining someone else before you decide you want to build something yourself If you are alone. But by all means, DU whatever you like, build a one man org if you want too, but then remember there are loads of those, and practically nobody joins a one man org.

Pizza, offer them all free pizza
 

hey everyone, my name is Cookie and I'm in charge of the organisation known as Robotic Industries, which focused on designing and creating robots to be used in DU. If anyone is interested in joining a professional (ish) and well structured corporation in DU, then look no further then Robotic Industries. Look forward to chatting with you guys

My guess, by mining a mineral called Cashium-1337 which you refine into money, making certain planets rich in Cashium-1337, a real money pit. That keeps planets of value being a center for contest between the big boys who need more money.


But, it's my guess, the devs could go with Gold or something like that :V

This does make me wonder, why the lack of automation ability? Lets look at this from another perspective, real world vs dual universe. The real world did have lots of manual workers manning large machines individually but that was in the industrial age, where coal power was the main source of electricity and steam was the main work horse of factories. Dual universe is on a much grander level of existence, there are space ships for crying out loud! I do see the reason for limiting pvp AI but as far as workers go, I think that AI or at least automation/ drones should be allowed. In the United States we have issues with employment and wages. This is because of the automation in blue color jobs like manufacturing and mining. However these are jobs people want because they make money from them. In dual universe you will be paying a subscription fee every month to play the game. Now I must ask this question, why would people pay to play a game every month where they do menial tasks. the point of Dual universe as I see it is to make a economy, this economy does not rely on people getting resources, it depends on people playing the game, and trading among-st each other. having menial jobs will not encourage people to play the game. The end result will be no-mans sky, a huge universes with no players to inhabit it.  Lets now look at other games, first of all Planet Side 2. Why does this game work? It is free to play but pay to win, those who play for free are grunts in an army. Those who pay are commanders or especially powerful players. Shooting and fighting is much more fun than mining resources with no end in sight. Next game: Minecraft. this is a game that dual universe is often compared to. so what is the point of mine craft? once again automation. mods are created in mine craft to have an even higher ability to automate mining and resource production. The economy's in Dual universe should not be based on man power but instead ingenuity and automation. although LUA script is somewhat limited it is still powerful enough to make simple AI's and is most defiantly powerful enough to control autonomous robots and drones. I made a LUA AI that learned in 5 generations how to play tetris almost perfectly. And I have also made robots do simple tasks With LUA. 
 
My final thought is that Automation will be what makes, or what breaks, the player count  in dual universe. 

Hiii, can i recruit you to come live in Tranquility? We need more cookies there, specially since i told everyone i will bake cookies for all members after DU is released
 
Uhm we are not gone really bake you ofc. But we could use a robotic cooky baking facility
 
Welcome to DU!!

Kudos on the level of detail. Though your wording could use some work, this piece comes off very showoff-ish, which I'm sure is not intention behind it. As for your discord recruitment section, asking for the admin's permission to recruit in their discord via DMs is a courtesy, it is in no way necessary nor is it required. If you're talking to an individual, said individual should be able to make their own decisions. Your members are not your property, they simply chose to align to the group you run. If they leave and join another org as a result of a private message recruitment, then they have every right to do so. If a person is annoying them however, blocking people is a thing. Simply going around and giving people shit for telling others about something they might be interested in is dumb. In this game org exclusivity is going to be rare, people have many interests and you shouldn't limit "your members" in that way. And stop calling it "poaching", this is just recruitment. Unless someone is spamming people with a bot account, there is no problem with it.
