I don't think that's the case because I don't have access either. Do you have a link to this announcement?

Pfft, what kind of crazy person would get Iron Founder and wait until the game fully comes out to then only play it for 2 months...

Someone needs to photoshop this image into a mugshot and paste the head onto the body so it looks like he's holding the placard, only then will it be suitable for JC's Twitter.

I read half of what he wrote, then thought "what a drama queen, the game hasn't even come out yet!". It's sad that you are angered easily by a community that isn't even active yet, but if you feel like the community is going to become bad just wait and see what happens rather than storming off. Usually the people that are a pain in the butt stick around and they get bored so they annoy people on the forums because they have nothing else to do. I would say, ignore the community until the game comes out then get involved because people are on edge right now. Also a lot of other people like pestering people to create more drama (like what you're doing with this post) and it just causes more problems. It's like a chain reaction: 1 person annoys another person - that person then complains on the forums - people then poke fun of that person - someone complains how bad the community is for poking fun of that person and so on and so on Just stop the drama and talk about the damn game!

Information has been updated. I hope you guys are more interested in joining the Sierra Corporation now.

You should of used stairs on the sides to give it a more curved look. Other than that, those ships are quite good.

That does look they've already done it but I was mostly talking about the textures. If you look at the textures you'll see what I mean by "clay like". Also to everyone else that's complaining that I'm saying to add this now or in the alpha I did say (if you read my whole post):

Thanks for the in depth explanation CaptainTwerkmotor xD

Thank you Lord_Void and yamamushi for answering my questions. I will see what happens when the game comes out in alpha if a developer sees this topic it would be nice if s/he could provide some more information on this. I'm only an Iron founder so I won't be able to jump on during the alpha to test stuff myself.

I don't mind the game having bad shaders and rendering. A lot of buildings in an area and fancy shaders and rendering would be hell for people's FPS. But something like clicking once to add a reflective surface to every texture (if they're using the right program or script it themselves) is easy and won't take up much time. Hopefully it's something that gets added later on. I would love to see some extra textures and reflective metal surfaces. Also what are they using to optimize the planet's surface. LOD distance rendering is not going to do everything. Are they using distance fog, world blocks or anything like that?

I am a game developer (not for this game), but no. The organisation is not a game development company within DU xD

Please stop acting like an expert of game development xD I already put a comment in the last topic.

Sorry did I phrase my sentences as "der dum phlub how dwos te gam wok???". I'm not stupid I've been self teaching myself game development for a long time now. Also you would be surprised at what hackers can do. People can still hack dedicated servers. For example I could do it if I wanted to but I don't like cheating and I don't like cheaters. I would only mess with a game if it's an old broken game that doesn't work with 64 bit systems, if a mod needs improving or if I'm modding the game myself. Also Minecraft handles memory very well but will still crash if you build a city and you don't have enough RAM. It looks like you are just answering questions you don't know the answers too so please don't mock me.

It doesn't take very long to add lighting effects to make a surface texture look more metal. It looks like they rushed the textures. This game is very ambitious so I guess they wanted to rush everything.

I'm not sure if it's the final texture but I think a lot of people would agree with me that the texture of the voxels looks very clay like. Are there plans to add metal textures or more textures in the future? This would really be helpful for the builders if we had a wider selection of textures to choose from. It looks like in the videos we can choose the colours but are we also able to select a material? It would be nice when we mine metal and place it down we receive a more metal texture with a reflective surface. If there are already plans to add this to the game then sorry for wasting everyone's time but it would improve the graphics and would also make a lot of builders happy.

I have 4 concerns that I would liked to be answered. 1: Griefing: Mainly what would happen when you spend ages building a massive ship then log off. Does it stay floating in space as a target for griefers or does it log off with you or have some kind of protection? Also what about bases. Are they protected by territory or are people free to come over and destroy or build around your base blocking you in? 2. Hackers: I would like to know what kind of anti-cheating the game will be using. Is it using a custom one or pre-made one? Also the LUA could be a problem if it's using actual lua script. People might be able to use it to spawn things in or gain the upper hand. Is there any protection against this? 3. Memory usage: A lot of people know sandbox games can be very demanding on memory. Will we require a lot of memory to play the game and will we be expecting a lot of memory crashes when players build cities? I heard there will be no limit to what people can build. Is there going to be server wipes? 4. Server stability: Mainly I want to know if there are going to be regional servers? There most likely will be but if there isn't then player ping would really cause a problem. Also will the servers be able to hold the amount of people that will be flooding onto the game on release?

Sierra Corporation ** Currently Recruiting ** About The Sierra Corporation is an organisation that provides trade and private military services. We promise to help new traders in the universe to show their potential and provide a deluxe living environment in our territory. We also strive to lower the prices of all our products to give our customers a great deal. The Sierra Corporation is ran by me (StormEagle). I've been the leader and staff of/in clans before. I am an experienced and skilled leader and I have been told this many times by the people I've been in clans with in the past. I also have a good grasp of money and can make a lot of it in games. It's not just money I'm good with I'm also a good fighter. This is why I wanted to make the Sierra Corporation a combination of a PMC and trade company. The Sierra Corporation will be more involved when the game has fully come out (I'm not interested in playing the alpha or beta). When the game fully comes out I will try to gather the engineers to create Sierra City. Sierra City is going to be kept secret for now but I have a lot of plans for it. The reason why I want to keep it secret is so nobody steals my idea for it. If you want to join feel free. I am currently looking for a CEO to run things when the alpha comes out so if you're interested all the information on how to apply is below. Apply If you want to join the Sierra Corporation go here and fill out the application provided: ** APPLICATION ** * Copy and paste this application then fill it out * DU Username: Age: Location: Character backstory (optional): Are you currently in any other organisation/s?: * More information will be provided here soon *
