I've seen something like this before. Slaves probably won't be added into a game unless it's through role play. The reality is that since this is a Earth colony, it would be seen as cruel and disgusting to have slavery. However, as stated by a forum moderator, it might be possible for slavery to re-imerge after a period of time.

Seems like a good idea. However, if the devs plan on doing merchandise, It might depend on what the game will have to offer. For instance, one thing they could do if for instance, you donated $128(just a random number) is that you get a model of the helmet in the game. Yeah. I like the idea and I thin the devs will probably do something like that with Kickstarter games usually having that as well. Although, don't forget non-physical rewards as well. Those are important.

Well, we have ANOTHER corporation. Well then, this is making a lot of friendly competition. Hope it works out for you.

Welcome to the forum. As for Alpha/Beta Testing, if you provide Kickstarter support and apply when the opertunity presents itself, I'm sure you'll have a chance. Again, Welcome

Realized I didn't welcome you yet. Well welcome yamamushi. Can't wait to see you post some more articles to the forums. I especially found your last one about Economic currency. Keep up the good work. And I'll say it again. Welcome

Nice to have you as well. Feel free to browse around the forums and do other stuff as well. Welcome Stealth.

Hello and welcome to the forum! Eve and E3 seem to be bringing in quite the audience. Well, not to worry. Even if you are let down by ArchAge, we will have content for you to play in about a year..... eh close enough. Feel free to browse around on the forums, suggest ideas or do whatever you like.

Hello and welcome to the forums. We are welcome to have you.

Welcome as well to the forum. Feel free to suggest ideas, just talk or stroll around.

I have upgraded and am using a website for the faction! Anyone interested in joining can now head on over there! Edit: I noticed it said I'm not using a website for a bit. That was a failure for me to read my post there.

I mean, it's a pretty simple concept and I'm sure if we pointed it out to the devs, they would add it in. Not a bad idea at all.

That's a interesting idea! I imagine wheels are already an idea well thought of but rails I imagine could lead to a number of possibilities. As well, if you were able to dock to a rail, and then it moves you into a position, that might make ship dockings to maybe a mothership more interesting. I like it.

Why!?!?! Why must you create ANOTHER organization that people can join. THERE ARE SO MANY! But aside from that, it looks.... well, really, really well done. I can't say that I'll join, but even if I don't, I would purpose an alliance when the chance happens. Really though, did people just start to create these when E3 happened? What is with all this?

Well, it depends. Do they want to have it compile serverside or client side. As well, could the servers handle it. I mean, it's definitly not impossible, but the way of going about doing it might heavily the game's performance as you said. Still not sure about it's practicality though.

I see. So then, as the owner, it would be a valid identifier. Another think I can see as well is the problem of you having to create each of these tokens manually. Now, I realize you aren't probably aiming to do this on such a large scale but if you were to start distributing many of these, you would therefore have to make a large amount by yourself. Also, the dev blog for lua scripting is here. Besides the problem that you can't use them for large scale, or if you do, it'd be complicated, there is another thought. If you become too relient on these, as I'm sure you've thought of, it would be a "collapse" of your player based currency, and cause more problems than it fixes. I'm sure your've probably thought of half of this as well but I'm just bringing it up.

I thought that as well. In reality, a currency without a valid way of ensuring counterfeit copies without knowledge of the game is impossible. There might become a way eventually but I don't see it working without that knowledge.

Well agreed. My idea was that there are possibly some exploits or breaks in the game that might allow something like a currency leak. If such exploits were to happen, it might be possible to stop those responsible by monitoring, but they would have to design an interface for that, which would cost more time and resources that could be spent otherwise. I see no point into getting into this further but I do like your ideas. Even though they aren't probably going to get through. I hope to see you around the forums since this is your first post.

You've obviously been doing some research on this. Let me tell you my honest opinion about this. It's an idea that we've seen time and time again, but it's tricky to see how well this would work out in the long term. We can't tell if a player would be willing to honor his end of the agreement and if that player will even be able to profit enough to do this. So, we have to break it down real quick. You: The issuer of this currency and manager. Person 1: A person who accepts this agreement and takes some of your currency after he trades you something. When Person 1 gives you something, it would be reasonable for him to expect a repay or due date for his payment, items, etc. You would have to then repay him by that date, in order to honor his investment. If you didn't honor his investment, let's assume he asks for collateral so that he has something to take back if need be. Now, there is a lot of trust here and it can easily be abused, unless, you are a extremely trusted individual. In that case, the collateral might be able to be taken out of the equation(which is unlikely.) Is this a usable idea? Yes! However, using it early in the game is probably not going to work for anyone in the end. Sorry. Well, those are my thoughts as I have had the idea before, but by all means, give it a go!

Well done. Well done indeed. I understand your point of implementing this system for an in-game currency, but to be honest, I can't see them putting effort and work into something like this. I mean, it is very impressive and would provide the real-life aspects, but as well, in terms of managing this monstrous software, it probably wouldn't be worth it. One vulnerability that came to my mind as well is to check if anyone is cheating the game in any way. An example would be a massive increase in money. You said there would be practically no way to counterfeit, but this does not stop exploiter, hackers, etc. If Novasphere wanted to look for this player, they would have to implement a system that allows them to track this. I think it's a cool idea, but I'm not sure that it would work out for them. I can only say as a member but I think that it's not quite going to to work.

I get your point completely, but I have a feeling that there are some things that I would just like to point out. First off, you pointed out that using tiles would be like a Civilization game and would ruin some aspects. I due understand the concern but I would have to point out the playing style of this. First off, if you were to remove the tiles system, the devs would naturally have to replace it and make a new system, which could get even more complex and cause players to have a harder time managing it. The fact simply is that the tiles system is the best and most practical way to manage this. Referencing the article of territory control, which can be found here https://devblog.dualthegame.com/2015/07/24/territory-control/#more-468, we could note that things will have to be managed with tags and due to that mechanic, areas must be created for those tags to therefor work. If there is not a system of dividing areas up into sections or as such, these concepts of territorial control and management would not be able to work. Alternatively, you could have a mesh like area that through some process is able to be expanding, but how you would go about this and the practicality of programming it and managing it is very unstable. As well, due to Arkship Security, it would be the wisest idea to go with the tiles system of doing things. As well, Arkship security provides a very key element to players who don't want to lose items and so it allows a completely different player base to thrive. Without this key element, we would be excluding the concept that was decided upon so that new players or those who want a safe refuge to play would be able to. I realize others may have posted in this time, but I wanted to add some reasoning from these articles. I completely understand your viewpoint but for the longevity and goals of this game, I'd have to say that these concepts should stay.

Welcome to the forum CerberusAlso, you come from Denver! You actually live pretty close to me(comparably. I don't know where you live and we aren't close). I can't wait to see what you have to offer to the game and this forum. Welcome to it.

I like how my scheme to gather loads of information on the game without having to do research failed. Oh well. Glad to meet all of you and I hope to continue seeing what everyone has to offer as a community.

Hello There! Now why do I say main character? Well because you are the main character from your point of view. Anyways, I'm MasteredRed and I am doing an introduction. Now, to my point of view, an introduction is kindof like writing down thing about yourself off the top of your head. So, here's what I have: Game, Computers, Programming, Role play. Yeah that's about it. You know, I could write down something cool or interesting, like an action story, lore, or just something cool in general, but I think I'll use another approach. If at all possible, I would like each of you to link something related to Dual Universe, whether it be the forums, wiki or dev blog, I'd like to see your favorite topic, feature, or whatever you like about the game. Think of my introduction as the way you introduce yourself to me as well. Thank you for your time and I hope to see you later Main Character.

Thank you for this Satori. I am eager to read up on the information you have provided me. This has given me a good starting point so that I can hopefully make more accurate and useful assumptions in the future.
