Had fun with this project. Gotta show the haters who the OG RGB dude is 😎

More to come!

At that point SE has more value add then DU and i will first try to get my money back, through court if i have to even as i don't need the cash but its now principle.
 
At the moment the only Pro DU has on its comp[etitors is the single shard Non wipe idea. If that is gone DU is not more then MS minesweeper

FEC is still up and looking for new interested members!

The most important thing to do today is log in fast and get the desired location with your friends, or just log in at all. but it seems we early backers are just F..ked over and forced to pay game time while we should have 2 free weeks?
 
This is no game breaker, this is just the next mess. Mess up for early backers so they all are far away from friends and byebye for most.
 
Good way to get people with free game time for years to be forced to sub.

Hi, I'm a long time backer/ Sapphire founder from 2016. I've been out of the loop for the past year approx. It has come to my attention that we're launching next month. Exciting!
However, it has also come to my attention that AvA, or even planetside combat is yet still not added to game. I've watched years tick by, seeing these things get pushed back over and over.
I tried searching the forums for relevant information on its current state, but I'm unable to find anything within this year (2022). I also clearly remember AvA being promised at launch. I saw this game a big investment, in time and money. I expected, the core features promised would at least be kept, if nothing else...
I apologize if anything is necroposted here, I honestly searched and found nothing relevant to this year and I haven't been around for some time, I'm sure somewhere in my account logs would prove this... Anyway...

What is the current state of AvA specifically? Is it even still planned? Also, what of planetside combat generally?

These are core promised features that I'm surprised we're launching without.

I will not look it at that way, as that was not what was promised way back during the kickstarter, or for the years after. People invested into this game for reasons, there were expectations, and NQ needs to address this among other things.

We did not sign up for JUST another builder game.

And I guess NQ institutional investors are going to learn the hard way, instead of being proactive before the problem hits their pockets.

What you are asking for is a completely different game and has nothing to do with what they used to advertise.
I have always said, build the vision of your AvA Lock & Fire into the game - With a gun. Just one gun. Use that as a foundation to also show that you're not forgetting the people from a pillar, which had interest in this game.
 
Why should I pvp if it has no impact on the world? That is also something completely different from what they always said. Heck, we don't even have territoral warfare yet.
And I disagree with you. Landmark in space won't survive long like this with a subspriction model. 
 
A very good comparison here is New World, which originally started as a pvp game, then at some point fired the game designer, brought in someone new and wanted to make it a pve game with opt-in pvp. What happened then: the people in the beta said that there was no pve content. Amazon had to postpone until the pve content was delivered.
So, what happened at release? People had fun for a few months. But the game is dead. The servers are empty.
 
I would like to state here that we are not talking about an indie developer. We are talking about Amazon. (Who had a bad statistic with released games - 1 cancelled, 1 back to alpha before New World came out).

I think the main issue here is that all relevant space build games that have the same setup as DU have it, Space engeneers has it, Empyrion has it.
 
Then why do people from there look at DU? Its potential and the size. But without some key elemants those people will be lost very fast, if not already

That's not the same, they were adding avatars when there were none, DU has always had avatars and is just missing the combat part.

Sad, maybe they'd actually have people excited for this game if they had AvA at least.
