Welcome to the forums. Also, I care to mention, nice reference. I don't think everyone will get that one, especially in a Space-Sim MMO forum. Anyways, once again, welcome to the forum Eruend.

Welcome Halo. Have fun on the forums and good luck with Chromium.

Welcome to the community. I hope you're able to find everything you're looking for here.

This is what happen when I leave my members unsupervised. I shall deal with them appropriately. *pulls out mysterious looking tool*

So, since Terran Union is a part of Cinderfall, both me and Darius decided to endorse one another. Over time, I found him to be a capable leader who could manage his faction. During the DUExplorers meeting, I found Darius to be knowledgeable of the game as well. The best way to put it is that he is a person who people should follow. So there. I endorse and hope to see whoever joins Terran in the future. Also, you want to join another alliance? Click here or down bellow

OK. I never have responded to a forum post like this, but this was a QUESTION! Simply put, This is Gameplay Mechanics assembly. He is simply assembling the gameplay mechanics and trying to figure out if there will be a realm for solo players in this community. There is no need for negative controversy to be stirred up and no need for a, quote on quote, remark about him being anti-social and accusing him of multiboxing(he said it but didn't say he did it) to be said. If you feel the need stir up controversy, just go back to your irl social circle. As for you my friend, I never Welcomed you to the forums and although it is a bit late, welcome. As for solo players, it is stated that solo will be possible, but the benefits of joining a group of people will far outweigh solo. In terms, organizations will always have a dominance over solo by a long, long shot. Solo is not a good option, however such roles as freelancer, wanderer and even professional spy, bounty hunter and as such will be possible. So there are roles that are similar to solo but actually have some benefits. For NPC corperations as well, I highly doubt we will see such things but the devs still have a lot to reveal to us. Hope that answers your question.

Not much. Welcome. Actually, welcome to the forums. Aside from that almost text like post, you can browse around and look at the forums. I also recommend that if you want to stay up to date with the game and be a helpful part of the community, you read the dev blogs. https://devblog.dualthegame.com/ Hope you enjoy your stay.

Hello and welcome. Have fun.

We appriciate your help Neo. As well, we do have a Member list Dominar. It's under the Members tab on the DUA menu.

You know, you gave me some more ideas I suppose. Food would be a resource that is needed for survival, but the economic availability and possibility for a single person to grow it would be quite good. In that case, food is not something that needs to be worried over.... unless. If someone runs out of food(assuming they can't get any either), they might make a trade off for their survival to attack another person. This would probably be if they didn't have a Resurrection Node nearby as well. See, the point of this is to give thoughts. While I can personally see food adding layers to the game, I can also imagine it being another step that you have to go through. For me as the leader of the DUA, I can have fun playing around with this mechanic and implementing it into my plans. However, individuals might find it another step of their routine. It might take those who join the game, play solo for a while and then join a faction down. Then again.... Dual Universe is supposed to be a game. However, it was never supposed to be a game that's easy to play. An example is the rumored time frame that a single person would take to get a ship that can escape orbit and achieve space travel. It was said that it would take over a year! Now, this is a rumor but if this was to be true, it would mean that players should either be willing to work for this or to join a group of players. As for weighted ammo, it's a good idea. I don't think it's a bad idea at all and, unlike food in some cases, it just adds to the game.

Welcome to the forums and it sounds like you have some pretty good ambitions already! I would like to see what you can do in this community and hope to see you around.

Just a quick update. I'm currently working on each individual branch of the Alliance right now. The structure will be provided here shortly. Thank you.

I'll join here. Why not?

I didn't even remember that post! Well, looks like I'm going to have to re-read the dev blogs again.

Starmade. I haven't played that game in a while but it sure takes me back. Welcome to have you on the forums and in the community. This shipyard idea sounds good, but you're going to have to figure out a way to protect this. I imagine the two options are Mercenaries or a faction with enough firepower to do so, Anyways, I wish you luck.

I have just heavily modified the DUA forum post to be up to date and more easy to navigate. It features more info on the DUA and will help players make the right decision when choosing who they will join. Hope this helps and feel free to share some feedback!

Good point. See! My faction members have my back covered, right? Right guys? *pulls out plasma weapon* Right?

Well, I hope it is as well. Currently, there are quite a few MMO's that are on steam and there are quite a few that aren't. I'd say 50/50 chance. Have fun with that idea.

Time for me to step up my game. This is quite high quality and now that this has just entered into the picture, I'm going to have to advance myself.

I've noticed that. There are still factions above the DUA but to be a high quality faction with a decent sized member base is all that's really needed. I'm still working as a leader to improve the Alliance and expand my knowledge by keeping up with the game news, but it's going good.

Anyways a planet cracker. Yeah, that's quite interesting. If you make it work, I'll contract you to turn it into Death Star technology.

He got this idea from space engineers. It wasn't a bad idea at first glance. I think it's just good to critique your own ideas before you post them. That way, you ensure that ideas aren't getting put in that have already been considered or answered(I did that my first forum post) or that aren't relevant. After all, the likelihood that someone has sad the same idea twice or has an idea that wouldn't work is high. I will at least give him credit as he did try and care about the game by coming up with an idea that he'd like to see in it.

And to everyone, thank you for joining. The rate of growth is quite alarming and is forcing me to expand when I thought I had a little bit more time to sit back. I was quite wrong and I'm being forced to write my plans, government and everything much quicker than originally planned. In one way, this spike of interest is not only expanding the DUA player base, but also expanding how the DUA is being formed. Thanks for the interest again.

As well, crowdfunding starts at about the end of this year. You have that to look forward to.

I do not think Novaquark would do that. It sounds like a sort of idea that wouldn't fit into the aspect of their game. Not to mention that it takes time to program even the smallest of things. However, I'm sure that a player base out there somewhere will still probably do it.
