  1. Although, that's just space suit colour. From what has been said in the past, we won't get custom clothing. He never said anything about changing the color of your visor or similar.
  2. Well, the death star probably wouldn't be able to destroy a planet. The weapons will be fixed weapons with fixed stats, so we probably can't construct the massive laser. However, get someone who is obsessed with planetary mining and maybe you can make it uninhabitable.
  3. Indeed. While I like the idea of realism and immersive experience, this wouldn't be worth the effort. I would like to see the things I mentioned in my first point, as it is a somewhat given, but the second point clearly expresses some problems in the time delay idea.
  4. You are correct. Skills will take time. Hopefuly it is as you said, in that it will take actual hard work and time to achieve those skills, but we'll have to see what exactly they have in store for us. Skills, as far as known, are meant to deterrent for people wanting to experience everything instantly and an attractor for people who want to take time training in their field. We know that skills will take some time, similar to how it will take months for us to achieve space travel. As we also know, it would take over a year of in game time for a player to achieve space travel alone, so that gives us an idea to the skills and research required to achieve such a feat. However, most speculation made based on calculations and information, they will be used for what I mention now. We speculate that skills may be used for weapons systems, engineering, manufacturing, piloting and so on. There is probably more, but we can guess the better your skills are for weapons systems, the better your hit chance and damage is. The better your engineering skill, the better you are at repairing. You get the point. We estimate skills will work this way, but that's just the guess for now. As for invasion, yes. It wil be possible and it will be epic. Truly, with the size of things, it will be a major feat and should only be tried by the most worthy and confident.
  5. I mean, it's a simple idea but it could have it's uses.... until you think of one thing. While we are using this, there is still the problem that people will use external chat for faster communication. I mean, it wouldn't make sense for chat since there would also be alternatives. However, for things such as sending maybe a camera feed, radar detections, or similar, it might be feasible. 1. Scanning an area with an automated drone would also store data. Now, let's say you need to send that data a distance. Depending on the distance, it may be possible you need something stronger to transmit the signal, or something to relay that signal. However, my second point against. 2. Latency as you put it in here, would also take more to calculate. In essence, making the game calculate the signals and the time it takes to get to destinations is unreasonable. If a signal is traveling, and it has multiple receivers, calculating the delay for each one wouldn't be reasonable for the server, and it would just be a waste of time for those waiting for said signals.
  6. I'll forgive you but IGN.... that's what they put on the tweet!
  7. What hurts me more... is they called it Crafting! It's ship design, not putting two stones together to make a pile of stones!
  8. Interesting idea. "Peasant. You have no knowledge of the true power of Dual! We are mighty and strong. We fight and may make way for our true fights. The fights beyond your single handed perception. We are the Earldom of Merica!" I feel like that quote above is something you'd say. Wish you the best of luck my friend.
  9. This seems interesting. I can tell you need to flesh it out some more, and the idea may be simple, but I am interested to see what comes out of it. Well, give it your all, have some fun and see how far you'll get. That's not a half bad strategy sometimes.
  10. This is quite a good idea. I'm very happy to see what awaits with your organization. As well, it will be quite interesting to see what people gain from your Newbie Program. I'm sure that it might be interesting to see how they develop skill, and how well you're able to teach.
  11. Hello again everyone. Today, for the news, I have created a document regarding the DUA structrure and formation. It's basicly government structure but it should give some insight. http://duafaction.enjin.com/timelock Yeah that's it for today. Not much but I'm workin on more. Thank you and on my behalf, I hope you have a good day. Daily Update #4, 1/8/2016
  12. A lot of stuff can happen when having a forced vacation from a community. Hello again everyone and sorry for the delay. This weeks update is finally out. So, let's break it down. Most of the stuff has been members who have joined. Let me mention them real quick: UnicornN7 KineticPhantom IffyCougar832 Julius All these people are new members. Now, in terms of other developments, let me get down to it. As you all know, Dominar has been hard at work designing logos. Those were released a while ago and are quite nice looking. Now, I am ready to announce that the DUA now has a discord chat. That concludes today's topics. Thank you all and on my behalf, I hope you have a good day Daily Update #3, 28/7/2016
  13. Well, looks like I issue a mandatory update of everyone's signatures. Note: I'm taking a temoprary break to sort out my computer and manage other thing. I'll still be watching so don't think you can get away with anything while I'm gone.
  14. I'd also like to announce a new member. Welcome Gandhi the DUA.
  15. Hello again everyone. I have some nice quick announcements today. I have made partnership deals allowing trades between the following organizations: Chromion Industrial Objective Driveyards To serve as a reminder, the DUA is currently pushing fowards as fast as I can possible push it by myself. As such, I am writing more on the DUA, both to individuals and for the organization. Constant strides such as contracts between new parties force me to consider the possibilities and expand on each aspect. That's all for today. Thank you all and on my behalf, I hope you have a good day. Daily Update #2, 19/7/2016
  16. How nice of you to mention DUExplorers. Also welcome jackblack38. Here on the forums, you will find a variety of things to do, such as join communities, discuss possible game mechanics and more.
  17. Automation is not a bad thing. Period. Complete automation is a bad thing. When complete and total automation of a specified process occurs, a play is given a benifit beyond belief. I beleve that everyone could do with a little automation. Let me just hand you an example. Let's say you have a smart home system that wakes you up, turns on the coffee machine and opens the blinds. That is completely fine and should be welcomed, as it already is. However, when you see that the automation now lifts your bed, glides it down the hallway and gives you a full course breakfast, it's a problem. Not only is it a problem, but it sounds absurd because now you have eliminated things that are healthy, and have turned it into a complete glob. So, automated mining, to a degree, is a healthy thing. Automated, mining, extraction, refining, and crafting all on the same ship or station without any workers. Problem.
  18. As this is kindof what the DUA forum page has become, I will now post daily updates. Currently, here's what's going on: DUA has launched a Razerzone community. It can be found here: http://comms.razerzone.com/communities/home/?id=47de3ac8b334db3555a879569410c554cc2653e4 Now, currently, I am still just doing stuff to improve the DUA website, relations, and all that stuff. Since it's all still growing fast, things can be expected. Fortunitly, things have gone quite well. I am currently almost done forming a trade agreement with Chromium Industries and am happy at how far the alliances with the DUA have come. A list of allied organizations are as follows: Terran Union Cinderfall Syndicate The Order of Meru Silverlight Industries I want to make this exclusive to organizations that I trust of find to be of high quality. I suppose this concludes the new daily update. Thank you all and on my behalf, I hope you have a good day. Daily Update #1, 18/7/16
  19. So welcome to the forums. We are delighted to see DU getting more attention and the fact that the gameplay footage is out doesn't hurt at all. Browse around, join a organization(Preferably an alliance ) and get to know some people. There are still many connections to be made and communities to form. Once again, from myself to you, welcome ArtificialMind.
  20. This is a post no one needs to see. Otherwise, I removed it!
  21. So, I figure something to liven the mood would be lovely. Now to announce something. Ah right! I, the proud leader of the DUA, am announcing the DUA Twitter and Google+! Twitter Google+ Essentially, what this will allow me to do is to post status updates on the DUA early or post filler on the DUA so that people can still get information if I seem to be dead or gone(it happens). Thank you and hope to see you all later!
