You are 100% one of the services this thread is here to support, this story is not surprising, if i am honest i would have sat in support channel protesting for the last 6 weeks if I was you. Rescue is massively popular in other games and a OBVIOUS career paths in this game. It is time to give it back to the players. Can I also add that DU's support team are possibly the best I have ever seen in a game, they are hard working, dedicated, and still manage to keep good spirits despite the sometimes apocalyptic levels of reports they have to field. This will also give them a well earned breather...... come on NQ you know it makes sense. Find me another forum post where EVERYONE agrees. #stopthefreebies

I would agree with this apart from the fact that any solution would be better than the clusterfudge of trying to get support currently, where people with ACTUAL issues have to stand there with their hands up trying to be seen behind a wall of players wanting to be teleported to their friends on Lacobus (have literally seen this requested). How could it make it any harder? You have to go on Discord at the moment anyway. You just make another channels called community support and have orgs registered to be allowed access to some sort of support channel. It is not difficult.

It wasnt a rule, as soon as it became a rule it is an exploit and you should be banned for doing it. I have no issue with it as gameplay but other players and NQ do, I accept that 100%. That doesnt change my opinion that I would have it in the game. Are you just trying to have to start and argument or being obtuse? Anyone how knows me on this forums, knows my stance on exploits, I have reported many. This is simple a difference of opinion, stop trying to imply it is something that is isnt. Stand down mate. You have made three posts on this forum, not seen the other one but not impressed so far.

No, I think it is solid gameplay, once the safe zone is removed I hope they bring it back. NQ see it differently, i am cool with that. Would I ever do it, no, of course not I am trader industrialist, that avoids pvp. But I want it in the game, I want people to be able to steal the stuff of people who are careless. I have never left a single ship of mine on anyone else's or an unclaimed tile, because i look after my stuff. I get it, some other people want the game to look after them, I am fine thanks.

Sweet, we have one planned. Really at the point where we can stop focusing on quanta and ships and start making more cool stuff.

Cant wait for them

Coming from the guy with no tree........

We need anniversary gifts though.....

Not seen ready player one, or got any idea what it is about. Might be because i am old. I think i get what you are talking about BUT, it is possible to create a game where both can exsist. Where the hardcore players create the gameworld for the others. Of course it would take the right mechanics and improved game stability and performance but it can be done. Would give examples but rushing a cracking ship build at the moment.

Other thing could be that player made markets are coming soon, so they might be putting effort into that, which in turn will solve the problem at the markets. Hoping they get rid of buy bots at the same time.

Not seen it

We are getting somewhere here, like that a LOT, like a token..... one per YEAR, anniversary gift, they should put it to the marketing dept.

Whilst I joke about it, I do want a space casino, actually I want a space station, in pvp zone, which doesnt get attacked because all side use it. Then DU works......

I am really calm dood, chill as a mofo, just very confused with this ever changing story..... just wondering why 20 posts on I am having to explain stuff I said 2 pages ago

In which case I think you need to pay more attention to people replies, I CLEARLY said in a previous post - if they did not use exploits and just claimed the tiles and moved the ship it is no problem, if they used other exploits then different story. Do yourself a favour, read posts, and reply to the content of them, dont just keep repeating yourself.

In which case throw the book at them, 100% ban them, they are cheating asshats, I dont want them anywhere near the game. If what you say is true, slightly confused why you havent mentioed it before though, bearing in mind it was a big part of the conversation.

Why is someone stealing something abandoned in an empty tile, through claiming the tile 'clearly' not intended? I literally thought it WAS intended, 100% thought it was a really clever piece of gameplay. You cant say I am 'wrong' because you are not me, sorry we have different opinions. As I have said, without NQ clarifying whether or not if was intended, there is no case to answer. To be honest we are going around in circles here, think we are best agreeing to disagree. No harm no foul, fly safe.

You can give individual perms to the elements in each apartments, or even embed xs core flats in l core buildings, loads of ways it could be done.

Flying around I get really excited see thing build up, things that were small shacks a few weeks ago slowly becoming large intricate bases, the areas around the districts is full of them. The only real large scale stuff i have seen have been major orgs though, what I am really waiting to see if when players from different orgs start to create for communal areas, really hope that starts to happen. Quanta is easy to make at the moment, we need to be investing more of it into cool stuff like cities, roads systems and race tracks. And of course space casinos.......

Here is the rub though, you 'clearly' see it as an exploit, I dont, I would have kept it in the game (neither of us are actually right, they are both valid opinions). That fact that we both have very different opinions on it is kind of my point, the issue here is NQ not clarifying sooner the situation, without that clarification there can be no punishment. I will take your silence to mean you DID lose a ship, not an issue, you have every right to be pissed off, just that one of us in this conversation is giving an unbias opinion.

I have about 18 million now in outstanding tickets, the worse was a massive stack of Stainless, but all part of beta. Only posted the expensive stuff.

Yeah I do kind of agree with you actually, if they did that i am pretty sure the community will step up.

Agree with most of it but really dont want an API, takes all the skill out of the market.

Whilst I agree about the favouritism, there does need to be some sort of handover, even if it is just a community discord where all player offering those services can advertise, otherwise you are dropping new players in the doodoo. I often find myself helping out in support but I have to leave because otherwise i wouldnt be able to stop myself calling some of these jokers out, even the support staff know they are lying.

Been thinking about posting this for a while but thought NQ would have done something already. Going to post this as politely as I can but the support giveaways are a COMPLETE JOKE. 50% of people are lying, this is obvious because they say things like: "I crashed when coming into atmosphere, logged back in and my ship was destroyed" - bullshit, you crash your ships stops what they actually means is "I have a really heavy ship, I crashed the game coming into atmosphere because i couldnt slow down, logged back in with zero momentum and my massively overweight ship fell like a rock" "I just died on XXXXX insert planet and have magically teleported to Ailoth, can you port me back" = I was mining and tried to use the force respawn to cheese back to my ship, but didnt check my node before I used this soft exploit This is causing a LOAD of problems, firstly you are completely shielding these new players from any survival elements of the game, experienced players know to fly with good scrap and extra fuel. New players arent learning these lessons because when they make mistakes (and most ARE player mistakes) they get freebies. The worst part about all this is that they are making a huge section of gameplay / career paths completely redundant. In alpha there were loads of players planning to set up as repair / refuel crew or taxi services, I have reached out to several of these to see how business is and there ISNT ANY. The game has limited career paths as it is (without really knowing the game) these are some of the more obvious ones and you are making them irrelevant. The longer this goes on the worse it will get. My solution - send out an email saying that the daily quanta is being continued but it is being called BETA SUPPORT INCOME, it is paid to ensure players have funds in case of emergency. You then reach out to verified support services orgs and bring them into support via some additional channel, where you can send people who need there services. This needs to be done soon, as you are making a massive rod for your own back by giving this crutch to new players (although seen several vets abusing it too).
