I just responded to this update on the ticket. And no, this is not an acceptable excuse here even when I did predict that eventually NQ would just throw the "it is actually not supported" line out there as they would not be able to find a solution.
That DU is not supported on Shadow was never before stated in the system specs and still isn't.
DU has run just fine up to the 0.24 PTS.
NQ has been (or at least should have been) well aware that they have a good number of subscribers and backers using Shadow
There is no reason for DU to not work on Shadow as the system specs are well above the suggested hardware specifications
The logs from the crash consistently show a Windows stopcode frequently seen with applications with memory issues such as leaks or incorrect allocation of memory.
Just to remind NQ; here are the DU system specifications which Shadow meets and exceeds:
Recommended: CPU (Processor)
Intel Core i7 7700 (3.6 GHz) / AMD Ryzen 7 1700 (3.00 GHZ) (Shadow well exceeds this)
To run Dual Universe, you will need a CPU with AVX instructions.
More information here.
Memory (Ram)
16 GB (While base Shadow has 'only' 12 GB memory, the issue is the same across all Shadow configurations. Minimum spec for DU is 8GB)
GPU (Graphics Card)
AMD RX 580 (8 GB) / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 (8 GB) (Shadow well exceeds this)
Operating System
Windows 10 (Shadow meets this)
I already reported the crash that was hapenning on the PTS but nothing has been done to solve this.
after speaking with other users in the same case it seems Shadow PC (https://shadow.tech) are now blocked and cannot access the game anymore.
Any reason to that ?
I was under the impression that the safe-zones currently around each planet (and the Alioth/Thades/Madis Space Safe-Zone) would be going away once PVP is properly implemented 9-12 months from now and that the Sanctuary Moon(s) are the only artificial safe-zones (and possibly even half of Alioth now according to JC in yesterday's stream).
A Space Safe-Zone can be created in-game by organisations who patrol and police such an area to help keep it safe from piracy and beginner-friendly.
I do agree that we need clarification on this so that organisations can plan and be ready, instead of acting on assumption and getting disappointed.
