I put some on the market for you guys. If you’d like to negotiate for some more, let me know

@Mornington Be careful what you are suggesting here without knowing the details.  But since you brought this up, I had already made it onto Lacobus past the blockade AND warned Infinity Corp about the blockade AND had already entered into negotiations with Whitemeat and the other "gunters" to join them in our efforts when I had announced to them that we were close to having the entire puzzle.  I took the risk personally instead of putting my org members in danger.
 
 
Don't assume you know what is going on with limited information from the interview. Its called strategy and diplomacy and both worked perfectly, with zero IC ships being destroyed, and a share of the Thoramine in our vault.

Then if that is the attitude you are going to have then why play any game like this?  When it is obvious that numbers will always prevail over the individual or few.
 
I understand that not everyone is into the same things in a game.  But to complain about an attempt to make something for that small group or in this case larger group that is there unlocking and tracking down the lore and easter eggs well who are you to tell them that isn't fun.

It is content.
 
It is an Easter egg.
 
It is being compared to RPO because it is a recent movie and a book brought to the forefront because of the recent movie.  
 
It is part of the lore of the game.  We are no longer around Earth, we are still learning about this star system, and it is obvious that there is a story here, we just don't know what yet.
 
So get out and explore and learn maybe we can unfold this mystery.

There’s some in the marketplace I hear

Man guys, be real. They didnt expose a bug. They broke down a market including its link to the market system which was never intended to be deleted. They never reported, they only intended to break and remove. 

Hilarious would've been leave it intact but add something funny to it like a meme.

Hello Noveans, 
 
By now, some of you may be aware that unlucky number Market 15 has been stripped bare and left to create ugly memes for generations to come. We’re trying to look at this in good humour as, from the front, it appears to be an issue that was created when we moved the markets, making it editable by players. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist (though we know there are a few of you out there) to understand that the markets are not a community construction, and as such not intended to be handled by players on this level. The destruction of the build isn’t a quick fix, and was clearly done knowing it shouldn't be. 
 
An important aspect we are considering in all cases and investigations is intention. The intention behind this destruction is very clear to us. The players involved did not report this bug to us, but instead simply filled their pockets. Had this stopped with a single voxel removed it would be a different story.  This is, at its core, a violation of the EULA and against the intentions of beta. We have been as understanding as we can until this point, but there must be a line.
 
Let us be clear, we will not tolerate this kind of behaviour during any phase of the development of Dual Universe.
 
The players responsible for the destruction of the market have been permanently banned from Dual Universe, and all salvaged materials and assets gained will be removed without compensation.
 
Sincerely,
The Novaquark Team
 
Follow up statement: 
 

Grow up. All they had to do was report the bug. If you use bugs for gain without reporting I have no sympathy for those banned. Good riddance. 

Hello Noveans!
 
We would like to thank you for your patience during the past few weeks as we have been incredibly focused on getting you all into the game. While we know there are still a few edge cases out there, we hope you’ve been enjoying your time in Dual Universe!
 
A burning topic is known bugs surrounding duping, and their exploitation. We’d like to offer some clarifications on this. 
 
We are aware of some bugs that were allowing players to dupe items and resources, and we are actively investigating  these. The process is however slow and labor intensive. Given how much time is involved, and how severe the outcome is, we want to make it clear that we are taking all exploits very seriously and they will carry heavy sanctions for abuse cases up to and including removal of player accounts and permanent bans.  
 
We have a zero tolerance policy towards cheating and exploiting, as is clearly laid out in our Code of Conduct.
 
For those who have encountered these bugs and already reported them, we thank you. There will be no sanctions on those accounts. We may balance gains if deemed necessary.  For those who have been knowingly abusing bugs, you have 48 hours to report your activities via a ticket here: support.dualthegame.com - your duped proceeds will be removed, but no further action will be taken. Please select Gameplay in the first form drop-down, select the “Rules & Policies” > “Exploits” category and use the subject “Self Report” For those who continue to exploit, and do not report it, your account will be banned without notice upon completion of our investigations.    
While every person has their own sense of fun, it is important to remember that this is an MMO and that rules must be enforced to keep play fair and even. 
We thank you for being a part of the Dual Universe  beta and for helping us keep the game fair and entertaining. 
 
Sincerely, 
The Novaquark Team

Dear Community Members,
 
We have some very exciting news to share. Many of you who have been here for a long time probably already know Yamamushi. As one of the co-founders of the official community Discord and an early Kickstarter backer, Yamamushi has been around as a very active and well known community member for almost 4 years now. 
 
We are excited to have him joining the team. With him coming on board, a few important things are going to change and we wanted to be transparent about this with you all.  We have always valued neutrality for our employees and we try to avoid any conflict of interests. Like all other employees he is bound to some important communication restrictions. Yamamushi must discontinue being a community figure while he is employed with Novaquark. This means stepping down as a moderator on Discord and our public forums, while retaining some limited administrative rights (precisely to maintain the DU Bot). He is also bound by an internal NDA contract and won’t be able to share everything as a Novaquark employee. For those who are friends with him, we ask you to avoid attempting to get behind-the-scene information from him, regarding the game or the company. 
 
He won’t be able to communicate or play anymore as Yamamushi, but his love for the community is strong and he will continue to follow the community from the Dev side. He will also not be permitted to be a part of a player-run organization. We know this can be hard to face for such an integral part of our community and this has been a hard decision that may feel frustrating (at least it is for us and for him) but a necessary step to avoid any suspicion of favorizing any group of players in the community.
 
We would also like to take this opportunity to explain what are our internal rules when a member of our community becomes a Novaquark employee:
 
His/her personal accounts are suspended for the time he/she is a Novaquark employee.
  He/she is given an anonymous player account so he/she could still continue to play the game, however, some specific rules apply to such an account:
  a. The Novaquark employee behind should not reveal his/her real identity and/or he’s part of the company. 
  b. He/she shouldn’t join a player-run organization with this account either, for neutrality reasons.
  He/she is given a NQ account, mostly to test things, and occasionally to communicate with the community in-game (if such opportunity arises). Nothing done on this account (coming usually with more powers/rights than a player account) will be transferred on any personal account.
  Thank you for taking the time to read this, please join us in welcoming Yamamushi to the team here!
 
Best Regards,
The Novaquark Team.

hi so I'm grave! made this lil thing and left it! I got scared of what it needed to run a faction. WhiteMEat was there to create it with me and he kept faith in it. After a lil bit of time he got it running and recruited a whole lot moar peeps. Now they're making LUA stuff that renders even me jelly xD. They went and made themselves allies with the largest alliance in da game (the Arch Confederacy) and are aiming to get the title of Archons. They only need 40 ppl as I'm writing this and are already halfway done so uh yeh join em, they're gud.

We are taking all precautions to keep everyone safe at this time. We will do our best to avoid any delay in the development process and are utilizing alternative measures where possible (such as remote work).

Thank you for your concern from all of us at NQ!

Welcome to Dual Universe, Naerais! I'm sure Nyzaltar could use the backup.

Welcome to Hell!
You may be wondering the following things:
"There's an afterlife, and I'm in Hell?"
"WHAT THE FUCK I'M CHRISTIAN!"
"Huh. It's an upgrade from Florida."
You're actually in Heaven. We needed to rebrand after somebody (Hallow's Eve, anybody?) decided to keep it Halloween for a bit too long (about 17 million years, give or take) and the people here were so accustomed that we decided to become Hell.
We still got the all the stuff as "old boring Heaven", except Halloween themed.
By the way, there is no Hell. That'd be a Class-A asshole move.
 
Archangel Versai, at your service. Within reason.
 

hya, I'm gravetender
Err ya nothing moar to add so enjoy tha reading ^^.
who am I?
I'm gravetender xD... In all seriousness, I'm a programmer, student in college, student council president, college administrator, etc etc. I'm both an introvert and an extrovert depending on the discussed topic xD I'm a curious person by nature. I like to debate and think everything and anything (to a certain extent). I also put a lot of energy on planning/strategizing. I speak French, English and Spanish. I say hallo from eastern Canada ^v^
why/how did I end up in here?
I'm an 1600+ hours Space Engineers player xD I mainly joined DU for the fantastic potential of this game. The power and politics from EVE mixed with the sandbox creative environment of Space Engineers. I've been watching this game develop since 2016, "studied" this community a lot, read (forums & discords), watched, joined chats with The SpartanCast and finally made my mind and joined in just recently ^v^
me goals?
The thought of the simulated economy to this scale makes me shiver with joy. The inflation of the currency, the money sinks, the stability of the currency, the investments, the economic warfare and the influence of the economy over the flow of events. I'm hyped for that x3. There is also the main topic of corporations and all, which also make me happy to see, but I'm still waiting for further development before starting anything x3 (mainly for the pvp update, since [sadly] wars can be very beneficial to some ;3)
 
That pretty much sums up all I'm willing to share ^v^
See you in November for the Alpha~
