    Sure I speak for quite a few people when I say we are "ALL" looking forward to it. . .

    Oh do not forget yama - that it was stated that all transactions on the market will be able to be taxed by the trade hub's owner. - Another major revenue stream perhaps when you think about it. . . Say you sell 100,000 items in a day. . . Each item costs 10,000. . . The owner of the hub has a 5% tax on all sales. . . Out of a 1,000,000,000 in transactions moving through that hub. . . You would make, exactly, 50,000,000. . . Which considering you have done nothing other than operate, build, and maintain the infrastructure to draw in business is not exactly a bad profit margin. Then there is the interview with JC done by DUE that he goes into some detail about a rental system for landing pads / territories, this would also perhaps be another fairly major source of income?

    I know for your more personal social economical structures to develop, this will have to be implemented. I can see it also encouraging people to do those very monatonous jobs that no one else has even the smallest desire to do simpily for the fact that the wages would be higher - just to keep a employee in that position hired and working. It also opens up numerous {RP} opportunities / jobs - for instance managers, to make sure their employees are actually doing the work that they are paid to do. This is why, personally, I would like to see it implemented. Perhaps tied to a organizational bank or corporate wallet.

    Good to see another new organization - welcome to the forums, look forward to seeing you on the flip side. . .

    Considering "EVERYTHING" is going to be player ran, odds are banks will arise, there will be the scams, then there will be the ones who have the decency to run a real operation. Personally, we at the ACS plan on the latter on our trade hubs. Oh - and I would love to see ya try and blow up a in game bank - you would not only deal with the banks corporate holders, but everyone else that has items/currency stored there. . . Essentially you would be pissing off quite a few people. People that would more than likely fight to defend their assets.

    Not the only one waiting to see how the universe evolves Peregrin, know a lot of us are looking forward to seeing, watching, and participating in the stories that spring forth from the primordial soup at release. It shal indeed be worth watching.

    Exactly! As for the OP - apologies are the first step. . . Actions are the next. . .

    What sour attitude? - can't take a rather pointed joke about past events. . .

    I "might" be able to think of "a few" reasons why. . . "MrStarWars" Anyway interesting concept on mission, be interesting to watch it evolve, perhaps to fruition.

    I'd be game, but I can not make any guarantees until closer to a specific date due to work.

    The reason why I highly doubt we will see full automation is due to the fact that there are script kiddies as well as other various parties out there that would abuse it to farm in game currency to fund cash to gold markets. This however does not mean there will not later on the line be ways to harvest larger and larger amounts of minerals. In fact in one of the interviews with JC I remember it specifically being stated that Hand mining would only be viable for a certain amount of time, eventually there will be projects of such scale that they will be nearly impossible to maintain by just hand mining techniques. It is this that requires the addition of more advanced mining mechanics IE Drills or Mining lasers, of which has been stated in the aforementioned interview that they will consider to add to the game, later on in the development cycle. So I personally think later on in the game we will see some sort of incarnation of tool that lets us harvest minerals faster and more efficiently. After all - hand harvested materials will be generally more expensive than bulk mined materials, however for a single miner to make cash you should have the ability to sell your "limited" amount of minerals to a larger buy order that is placed out for said item.

    Great to see more service men and women showing up into the "dual" universe community, after all, there are not that many of us on here, so I am happy to have others to relate to. If interested, I am "currently" able to be caught on the "Jedi Covenant" server on SWTOR. Look forward to seeing you all on the flip side. . . Wilks Checkov

    Well, you can always get the limited time offer - of a lifetime subscription as well. . . But you must be able to afford the price tag. It does however make things far simpler.
  14. Wilks Checkov
    Know personally, I would love to see it attempted. As I am quite the fan of the "Stargate" series, need assistance let us know.
  15. Wilks Checkov
    Agree with (OP) - second the motion to remove post count.
  16. Wilks Checkov
    Happy holidays & New Years - I sadly wont be around for it, stuck working during holidays.
  17. Wilks Checkov
    Everyone is welcome to formulate their own ideas about the agreement. In fact it is quite well supported.
  18. Wilks Checkov
    Vote cast - now I must be getting back to work. . .
  19. Wilks Checkov
    Will be sad to see you go, but we all need a break at one point or another. We will take care of the discord for you until your return. . .
  20. Wilks Checkov
    Okay the server is now up - Developer Version - search for "DU Community Survival" in the server list and you should be able to find us. Any other questions feel free to ask.
  21. Wilks Checkov
    Server was purchased today, will finish the configuration in the morning - stay tuned for more information. . .

    Reserving a few names for the 6th part of the story I am working on: Dr. Alexi Pavlenko - Particle Physicist, and Nano technology expert
  23. Wilks Checkov
    Credit due - where credit is due. . . In short words, keep up the good work, and I look forward to seeing more in the days and years to come.

    Looking at setting up a community ran Space Engineers server, will be hosted out of Dallas, Texas. If we get enough votes for support I will go buy the server. Vote @ http://www.strawpoll.me/11809202

    While we wait on the alpha of Dual Universe to arrive, I figured I would place this offer out to the community at general. If we can gain the right amount of support I will buy a dedicated server for Space Engineers out of Dallas, Texas. It is on a Gigabit fiber line - So that worldwide connections should be possible without much issue, meaning everyone can join in. There will be a few mods on it to make it significantly more challenging! If you are interested in making the server a reality - please vote here http://www.strawpoll.me/11809202 We are looking for at-least 10-15 votes for me to consider buying the server. Should you have any questions - feel free to ask! Wilks -
