The key thing is that defence has to be strong, so you need to commit a lot of resources to attacking bases, particularly established cities.  That way people can choose to live within a certain amount of protection.  If people want to go live on the outer rim, solo or in small group, then they are hoping they dont get found and they should play with that in mind.

Bringing it back a notch
 
Everyone has a right to desire a type of game play. That said it’s exceedingly difficult to create a game that appeals to everyone. This game is not ment to be 100% pvp nor is it 100% creative mode. It’ll be a bit of both and if you choose to partake you’ll have to adjust. Dual Universe is doing it right.
 
There will be safe zones where the creative folk will hang out. Creativity in a worry free area is beneficial in that it’ll drive individual styles and help build a diverse civilization.
 
There will be VAST areas in between these safe areas that you can pvp your evil little hearts out. The space we have to work with is ridiculously big. Like DUMB big. In perspective don’t be upset that you can’t PvP over all of the entire lower 48 US states because New Hampsire is a safe area.
 
This is a civilization building game. There will be big orgs, there will be wee little orgs and there will be people trying to go it alone. As a builder I do not expect that I have a right to venture into contested space and not have to deal with pirates or greifers. That being said the fore mentioned pirates and griefers should not expect to be able to attack anyone at anytime at any location.
 
I want this in a bad way to be a huge game where everyone can do what they want. Believe that there’s room for all. I really mean that. There is really room for all. 
 
If people cant build pretty things then this verse will all look like cookie cutter rushed constructs. If we don’t have PvP then the constructs will not be practical and would end up over extravagant.
 
DU not try to make this your game. Think about how to make it everyone’s game.
 
That’s my few quanta.. 
 
ps. @Geo sucks 

Pretty sure something like this will be the case, with only basic resources on Alioth.  What it should hopefully do is encourage people to start shipping in ores from other planets.  Alioth will have the most demand, plenty of people will try to supply, I know I will be.
I agree 100% that any peace should be player made.  I still think you wont find many of the key resources on the home planet though.

My hope is that the size, scale and freedom of the game will allow for real world 'pvp'.  Peaceful factions will control some areas and those areas will be pretty secure, pirate / anarchy forces will create no go areas and there will loads of places in between. 
 
Become part of an org if you want security. 
 
I hope the community is left to police the game.

You miss they point, they make it hard to read so you just sign it
