That is the point of the DAC, but having it as the only form of paying for subs isn't gonna happen. It simply defeats the purpose of them. If you look at the old ks rewards a single DAC is going to be around 18 euros/usd(if you go with how packs are priced now). The purpose of buying a DAC with real world cash is to sell it on the market. It costing more than the standard monthly sub is part of that, and because you are making money in game off it.

The prices won't be dropping. The cheaper packs allow you in at later phases so there isn't a point to ever drop them. Conversion ratios arent the best, but nothing stops you fron using a vpn to get the usd rate as opposed to the euro one.

You'll need to contact support.

Honestly, I think i wanted a game like DU since i was young. When i stumbled across it during an E3 vid i got excited and started to read every shred of info i could, then i joined the forums and the rest seems to be history lo

This thread was to be questions about the discord on a whole, instead it has become nothing but people attacking the bot and other trying to clarify/defend its use. NQ has made its stance known, i don't understand why this thread has gone 2 pages over this. It is the same arguments over and over again. If you don't like the bot because you are paranoid/skeptic/or personal issues with it being made by a community member that is fine. You are entitled to your opinion. However, might i suggest that if you are only going to continue talking about the bot then maybe take it to a different thread and let this thread get back to the purpose it was meant for. TL;DR: if you don't like the bot or discord....don't use them and move on.

This might be better asked in the NDA area of the forum, i wouldnt expect NQ to answer that here.

Its disappointing, but its by no means unheard of for a game following the traditional test phases to remain in a NDA state while in alpha, NQ is keeping its promise to the supporters though in that they will be letting anyone who backed during KS to join the alpha in waves. The reasoning for the NDA remains the same, and imho its for the best given the landscape of the gaming community at large.

Currently there isnt any plans on collision damage, and rotors and other moving parts have been suggested but denied by NQ. trello has a lot of info for features planned and denied https://trello.com/b/Y6WNMd2S/dual-universe-community-suggestions

There is very little to no info on any of the combat, Right now anything we say is purely conjecture.

I hardly suggest people to back, it is a lot of money. My only thing is that if you have faith in the project its worth it for the dacs alone, that being said its still great to have people who arent backers in the community.

The keys are for beta, and as we are still currently in prealpha waiting on a new road map, it would be impossible to say when Beta would even hit. It is possible to back at the 60 dollar level then as you are able bump it up to the next level and so on only paying the difference between the packs.

Personal opinion aside, NQ has stated that they will never port DU to console.

The way we hold Quantra is more akin to how we hold money in todays world. In a bank where we use a credit card or paypal.

Not only this, but the fact that you will still train skills while offline. the metered system wouldn't work at all when you take that into account. The DAC and the way skills are planned to be trained make it so someone who cant play 15hrs a week to gather resources because they are working is able to supplement that with the use of DACs on the market. That is imo what Plex/DAC and similar systems are actually for. If you get on 10 mins even at the end of your skill training timer...you arent falling behind someone in skills, even if that person is playing 1hr for every 10mins you play
