  1. My RAM used to spike to near 100% usage and then crash, but ever since I increased the page file size to 1.0 - 1.5x physical RAM size, I haven't had that happen. That was a long time ago though so I'm not sure if it's the same issue.

    I guess somebody should ask it:  "Just a desperate attempt at generating cash, or a real attempt at building something they will need for release?"  I can see it both ways, but if the later, it sounds like they are starting from Ground Zero in this part of the effort.

     

    I don't think it would help NQ generate much cash in the short term, there won't be much reason to buy DACs and sell them for quanta because of the high volume that are held by backers, the quanta price could be relatively low at first. But that might be good for players who do want to sub using DACs.

    Who is gonna burn these for quanta if everything will be getting erased eventually?

    Unless NQ is insane they would wipe first before releasing DAC feature (in-game trading).

    Really unclear here:  Are DACs going to be required to play the game going forward?  e.g.  Am I going to have to start burning my backer DACs before the game is released?

    No it's just another option in addition to paid subscription. Backers wouldn't need to use them until after release.

    NQ does owe the early players/backers something. Did you check the price that they payed? We're talking about several hundred Euros. Wtf a skin... U mad bro?

    $500 here, though I don't feel like I am owed anything other than what was listed in the pledge description and only if it made it to release, I knew it was a gamble and basically a donation. My expectations were very conservative because it didn't blow up like Star Citizen, they had meager funding to work with for an mmo. If another developer can do it better down the line I'll happily jump on that, but I'm kinda done with alphas and betas.

    If bots go...

     

    Territory taxes are so heavy that if bots stop buying at Guaranteed price bad and unexpected things can happen.

    It is also possible that if bots go ore supply decrease due players are not able to pay territory upkeep.
     

    I think bots buying T1 ore on starter planets is fine, but can get rid of everything else.

  6. People argued against the old way of mining too and suggested ideas like mining units, so who should NQ listen to? Right now they have both, mining units and asteroids.

     

    They don't need to get rid of schematics, they need to make them easier to use. Instead of physical items you buy off market and manually plug into each machine. They could be a researched based schematic bank or something, but not the way Starbase does it either.

     

    There should be more things to do in the safe zone. I wish there was energy/power system, and more functional things. I think it will be more of a building sandbox than a game for a while.
