SlendyMcTendies Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Hello Dual Universe! I am SlendyMcTendies! I absolutely love Sci-Fi games and enjoy close to anything having to do with space, exploration, and a massive map to do whatever I want in, which is why Dual Universe seems to be a perfect fit for me. I have created an Organization known as Blackheart Inc for DU. It's difficult to fully flesh out a description of what this organization will be aiming for since I am currently unaware of the specifics of DU's gameplay elements. However, I am more than willing to learn among the already large (and still growing) community. I also plan on streaming DU when the early access opens on September 30 whenever we are officially clear to stream/record! If you are interested in following along with my adventures in DU, or if you'd like to stop by and say hi before then, you'll be able to find me at: twitch.tv/slendymctendies as well as on Twitter @SlendyMcTendies If you have anything I think I should know, questions about myself or Blackheart Inc, please share and/or ask! I am more than happy to tell you more about myself or answer any questions! EDIT: I get it guys an NDA is very likely.

Lethys Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Hi there and welcome Just a reminder: there MIGHT be a NDA in the pre-alpha. SlendyMcTendies 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATMLVE Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Cool to see you here! Like Lethys said, watch for an NDA. Is there a particular area that interests you? It seems you've created an organization but it doesn't have any sort of focus yet. SlendyMcTendies 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlendyMcTendies Posted September 1, 2017 Author Share Posted September 1, 2017 I tweeted @DualUniverse. They said there is no NDA for streaming. However, if one does pop up, that's not totally unexpected. Here is the Link: https://twitter.com/dualuniverse/status/882876819816558593 2 hours ago, ATMLVE said: Cool to see you here!

Particularly I love the LUA Scripting possibilities and I think some highly robust AI can be made for constructs, and I like designing ships and space stations. However, I know that this will require resources and materials to accomplish. Therefore, I've set my goals a bit broad. If they all work out, wonderful! If not, then such is life. I know there are already a lot of well established organizations and competing with them is essentially organization-suicide. However, I have other plans in the works for that. Thank you all for the warm welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you all for the warm welcome! Sounds like you got the same ideas as me! I'm looking forward most to scripting, and building stuff that utilizes the scripts. Also, regarding that tweet, that's for the alpha. Technically, what is coming out on September 30th is the pre-alpha, so that tweet no longer applies. The alpha was delayed to a later date, but NQ still wanted to give us a game to play because they're awesome. Lethys 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlendyMcTendies Posted September 1, 2017 Author Share Posted September 1, 2017 That's true, which is why I'm not going to be surprised if one DOES pop up, but it seems unlikely IMO. If they were willing to let people stream the Alpha which was slated to release on the same day, then why would they suddenly go back on their word for something that they themselves merely refer as a technicality? That's my thought process anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An0ubiS Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Sorry that I have to disappoint you. Yea, they mentioned alpha won't be under NDA. But we talk about the PRE-alpha, which will definitely being under NDA (see the link below). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlendyMcTendies Posted September 2, 2017 Author Share Posted September 2, 2017 I'm not surprised or upset, but this is not 100% definite. They said it "might", which does not mean "will". Part of me hopes there is still no NDA, but I perfectly understand and agree with their reasoning. Not everyone understands or appreciates the game development process, especially one of this scale.

An0ubiS Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 No, they said "may", which does mean "reserve sth", more or less. Sorry, but you've got it in black and white: The pre alpha will be definitely under NDA, a change seems unlikely. Quote Because we are shifting from an Alpha to a Pre-Alpha test we may decide to ask all participants to sign an NDA and agree not to share information, screenshots or stream the game until the proper Alpha release. While we said there would be a high chance of not having any NDA for the Alpha, this Pre-Alpha is something else and we don’t feel it would be appropriate for streamers and viewers to judge Dual Universe based on this extremely early version. Once the game reaches a true Alpha stage the NDA will be lifted as we originally stated. [...] We know it's not ideal and that breaking the NDA will be very tempting but we wanted to give you access to the game on September 30th to keep our promise and decided to trust you guys, like you trust us everyday.

SlendyMcTendies Posted September 2, 2017 Author Share Posted September 2, 2017 Lol, ok I made a misquote. But contextually they have the same definition, and the final line in that quote merely references the (albeit likely) scenario that an NDA is enforced. Again, this does not GUARANTEE they will, but seriously, I get it. At this point we simply have to wait and see. Lethys 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlendyMcTendies Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 UPDATE: I just now read the rules for the Pre-Alpha (had been travelling for work and such). If anyone is interested, or if you know someone who is, I will be recording my gameplay of the Pre-Alpha, then releasing those videos when the NDA is lifted (if I understood the post correctly, which I believe is difficult to misinterpret). You'll be able to find the videos on YouTube here. NDA update made this reply irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
