welcome to DU!

Thanks for the thoughts, the ship will be spacebound and we don't have a design quite yet. Probably will be made out of modules.

Not "everyone" says this won't happen. With all the support we've gathered some people obviously think it's worth their time.

It could fail for sure, I'm not denying that but for now everything in DU is a dream. This could very well fail or it could be one of the largest projects in DU.

situation one: people need mass transport, especially to large city's. Single person travel will be expensive and lengthy due to the fuel costs, not to mention if someone gets lost or their ships breaks down. The New Horizon does this on a large scale to minimize the costs for the average player. situation two: Running out of fuel isn't an issue, We will stock up before every voyage and make sure nothing happens. We aren't stupid and will plan ahead before every voyage. situation three: Raiding is certainly something to consider, why do you think I'm recruiting security teams and escort ships? I wouldn't do this blindly and its going to take place far after launch. Besides people that can't dream never achieve anything, wait til after launch and you might see The New Horizon doing great things. If you wish to bring this further I invite you to the discord.

Welcome to the community!

looks cool to me! I will check it out for sure!

yeah, fuel will be a major issue. We are planning on making it orbit a planet and then players and cargo are delivered on smaller ships.

The new horizon is a massive project. It is essentially a massive ship transporting players, cargo and small civilian ships. IT travels in a loop docking at major locations such as cities, alioth and sanctuary moons. Whenever an org builds a dock they get a share of profits along with a huge influx of civilians making their city a hub of tourism and commerce. so far we have many large envolved orgs including Empire, The solar Empire, Dark star imperium federation alpha and medium sized orgs. https://discord.gg/FQbpFgM https://community.dualthegame.com/organization/the-new-horizon

I was discussing this earlier with someone. Imagine ships coming our of the ocean. Or floating cities like you said. Regarding this I hope they add the ability to transport water.
