Duckimus Maximus

test sorry please ignore

Without going too far into NDA territory we are working on developing technologies (fully open sourced) that will empower and enable great cities, and similar projects. We are also going to do plenty in the pubic works area, and we will support new people joining the game like we have been doing in the NDA channels and ingame for as long as we have been playing.
 
We want to play a game in which we have great civilizations and cities. For those to grow you need certain things and we will provide material and immaterial support towards those goals.

New Merovia Chronicle (NMC) -- independent media outlet covering events and personalities of Dual Universe. Our main focus -- extended interviews with players, secondary -- quick, entertaining (not that serious) news and featuring of interesting in-game projects. We see our mission in creation of diverse, conflicted, yet honest collective portrait of DU community, delivering it without prejudice and equal share of light.
 
While our production is of humble kind (not everyone a native english speaker), we are always striving to improve and uphold the highest standards of journalist integrity. It means getting in trouble from time to time!

NM Chronicle team,
In hope to bring you some enjoyment.

Duckimusmaximus assisted me, I'll join for logistics/operations/mining/building

The 3rd Option is recruiting! Are you tired of living under the yoke of an emperor, or fleet commander that doesn't even play the game himself?
Or are you entirely new and have no idea what emperor I speak of? Either way you're welcome to join us.

The 3rd option is a pirate guild first and foremost. We specialize in living inside the shady underground of the DU community.
Theft, Espionage, Piracy (the real kind, we don't care about mp3's or napster) are our main drivers.
 We are for hire too and have been hired on several occasions already by the big orgs, and the little ones. Usually for (counter) espionage activities.

We keep our industry inhouse to remain independent, we don't want to be under anyone's control other than ourselves. This leaves me to why I am writing this recruitment post. We need you. We have a tonne of new projects on our horizon, including some exciting new contracts, and public projects that require manpower that we currently do not have. We're looking for builders, miners, pilots, shady people, and people that enjoy murder. We are only accepting people that have already pledged and have alpha access. We do not mind total newbs, so long as you have a somewhat functional brain you're welcome here.
 
When you join us you will go through a probationary period based on your personal behavior and input into the org.
We work very compartmentalized in regards to our projects so we need people that understand that there will be things going on in the background you will have no knowledge of.
 
You will get access to a factory you can use on a first come first serve basis. You will be able to be your own man/woman we fully support and encourage people to develop themselves.  
Post release we will deliver our members the following:
 
Regular redistribution of wealth with the use of force as projected by a gun you will be holding. Large projects that support the greater DU community. We take from those in the top and give back to the rest. An equal share of the loot of any raid you attend. A regular stream of exciting activities involving information gathering, combat, piracy, and theft.  
If you are interested in joining feel free to join our server. If you have questions you can PM me on Discord, or ask them in this thread.

This discord is for members only, for any diplomatic inquiries or questions about the org you can ask them to Duckimus Maximus, and Soulinks.
 
For more information please reread.

You can get quite far with virtualization with qemu I have a windows VM I use for malware research and out of curiosity I set one up for gaming a while ago.
Anti cheats don't flag that they're in a VM and you can get baremetal performance with passthrough. You just need to give the VM enough cores&ram so you have the horsepower to actually run the games. I use Arch, and you can find a great guide for how to set this up on the arch wiki.

As the name implies, Dual Universe Sleepers is a temporary initiative: it will cease, or at least change, when we awake, i.e. according to NQ's current lore, at Release.

I'll keep making daily notes for my own use but will then switch to my "real" original project: collecting and recording knowledge and history through an ingame library with ingame readable "books" (programming boards with screens and buttons, most probably), open to public use in a safe area.
 
Details are still in the works but there will be books, as many of them as possible, from different writers and in several languages.

Your best and safest option is to go back to NQ support, and let them know about the situation. Send them any evidence you have of the payment going through on your end.
Alternatively you can check to see if xsolla has a phone number you can call for quicker support. Apart from this advice I don't think there is much anyone can do for you, so you're really kinda stuck dealing with NQ & Xsolla.
 
 
 

@Daphne Jones As a person with a "mental Illness" I find you throwing the term "Mental Illness" around like you do VERY hurtful! You are "hurting" me by throwing those words around! I am a high functioning autistic person I have Asperger's Syndrome. I DON'T PVP! But when i do I am not as good as others because of my "mental Illness" which causes me to be slower on reacting in PVP situations! I formerly request that you don't throw the words "mental Illness" around OR label the completely NORMAL people that DO PVP with those words! Those words are very demeaning! I know for a fact that I am NOT the only disabled person playing DU, these other players may take your words very hurtful as I do!!

Good to see some like minded folk in here.
 
Fog of war should definately be in it adds gameplay to explorers, and mappers. People can sell their maps to all sorts of customers.
 
Bit of a tangent warning here:
If I am a 19th century American going up the wagon trail from east to west. I don't know who owns the towns on my way, or who lives in them.
A lot of towns back then were just made by accident. They only got incorporarated after the government could reliably project their power in those areas.
We are kind of like those people, the day we're out of the Ark ship it's manifest destiny all over again.
 
I don't see how that should be different in DU. If I'm going around the place I shouldn't be able to just know, or see, who owns what without inquiry.
If I want to know who is when, and where, I should have to invest time to figure out those two questions. This is what makes the game compelling.
When pvp devolves into left clicking a hex on your map, flying there, and nuking it with overhwelming force. It's going to get boring quick.
I don't want a hex registry on the map, or a website, or elsewhere. I want this information discoverable in the game using game mechanics other than a map that tells you where everyone is staking their tent. I want to have to go out, and fly over a hex to see how it looks like. Walk on it to find out who owns it. Plan my assault accordingly.
 
On stealth, this is a sci-fi game we're 10k years into the future. Today we already have tech that can defeat radar in choice circumstances.
It'd be silly to not add that in the game. Cloaking, EM dampeners, Heat sinks, bring it on. So long as the investment is high enough.
 
On accounting for crimes, once you're close enough to physically see the ship, you should be able to grab its identification, or at least a screenshot of how the ship looks.
Considering DU is going to have a very varied fleet of ships it shouldn't be impossible to identify people based on their ships. This all revolves around having good communication with people, and knowing how to investigate things. A modified mining barge with high tech cloaking, EM countermeasures, etc.. is going to stand out when you're looking for a mining barge that attacked your ship. And if you cannot see the ship, record its (lack of) signature. Considering most ships will be unique in some way, shape, or form, getting a unique signature for each ship shouldn't be hard at all.
