Feel free to elaborate. I found DU from the Space Engineers forums.
-
I just know basics, I'll script things if they are useful and easy to do.
-
I'm guessing that's what the intention is, to make it difficult for solo players to just go wrecking people's stuff while they are offline. But you will still need shield to be able to protect your stuff from large groups.

Think he just means 2nd stage of Alpha, as opposed to 1st stage starting on the 30th.
-
anonymous probably doesn't have permission. Usually you need to create an ftp username and password and use that.
-
Yes I played lots of SE and ran a server as well, before finding out about DU. I wished for an SE-like MMO, and my dreams came true.

Likelihood of running pre-alpha on my Macbook Pro?
Haunty replied to Saul Retav's topic in General Discussions
You really need dedicated graphics, Intel HD won't cut it -
I like planets, but I'll go everywhere and build little outposts.
-
Yes it seems like it will be entirely possible to play solo. I plan to play solo a bit in the beginning, but like Eve, team play will be advantageous and provide a more complete experience.

I would expect wipes as an almost certainty, especially on full release it will be reset. Alpha/beta is for testing, so you can use the opportunity to give feedback to the devs and learn the game mechanics. Then at full release you'll be ready to start over and progress.

Taking inspiration and idea from other games
Haunty replied to Mazillus's topic in General Discussions
Yes he's said this before in interviews as well Space Engineers is based on Minecraft and I've spent more time playing SE and Eve than any other games, which makes DU the perfect game for me. -
From what I've seen, Lua in DU will be a lot easier than what Space Engineers uses for their in game scripting, I never bothered trying to learn it. I don't have any higher level coding experience, just basic stuff in VBA and SQL, so I think I might be able to do some things in DU.
-
This is one of the most common concerns that come up. I'm not too worried myself because the game world is so huge, and I plan to spread my assets in multiple locations so they can't all be compromised at once.
-
It would be cool if we can reach it as a symbolic goal. Pledges have increased a bit since the pre-alpha access announcement, so if the momentum continues I think it'll get there.
-
I'm just happy they made the announcement.
-
Anyone else taking time off work for Pre-Alpha?
Haunty replied to yamamushi's topic in General Discussions
I would take a day or two off because I'll need to use some vac time in October anyway, but not before knowing the up times. -
I went to Grand Island, NE which was forecast to be mostly cloudy during the total, but the weather puled through and it was clear where the sun was.

The Vanities/Fashion and other pretty things
Haunty replied to Munney's topic in General Discussions
Yeah we haven't heard much about character creation in a while. I would like to see some customization that you can make unique, instead of just pick 1 of 6 canned bodies/heads/hair. Also the ability to change clothes/suits. It might not be that advanced at release, but maybe it will get there. -
Issues with game development based on pledges
Haunty replied to TeemuMilto's topic in General Discussions
Some games you buy are just products, but others are services. DU is a service so it requires a sub. -
Collab fom the discord: Yama and CommanderLouiz
-
Personally I'll never go back to that game no matter what they add, I just got bored with its fundamental design.
-
I enjoy religious and other satire too, but this isn't the proper place for it.
-
Should satire be allowed in the forum and game?
Haunty replied to huschhusch's topic in General Discussions
Whether people think it should or shouldn't be allowed doesn't change the fact that NQ are accountable to laws and standards. Satire can be taken to unofficial channels if it violates NQ's terms. -

Purchasing Pledges/DAC's as gifts to help with fundraising
Haunty replied to yamamushi's topic in General Discussions
On a side-note I'd like to be able to buy t-shirts and other merch.
