Guest Hodgydot Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 What are we thinking will be the next confirmed added content Into DU ? Or big update you expect first? Personally I see an update around US Thanksgiving time but not sure what to expect really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think DU needs to worry about competing for attention with GTA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or big update you expect first? Personally I see an update around US Thanksgiving time but not sure what to expect really. 6-8 months from now NQ will introduce territory warfare and space combat v2, they also want to try and move new solar system forward because they were talked into not changing the current planets to their new tech (because it's "good enough and boohoo we'd lose our work and buildings) but still want to introduce it so it's just tagged onto the list of things "to do". they also have a list of issue to resolve and mechanics to balance which will probably take months to complete on its own. So they pretty much will need to find a way to squeeze a year of work into 6-8 months and in the process also keep the game interesting enough for subs to stick around come December in order to keep the lights on come 2021. All IMO obviously as what do I know (but pretty sure I am not far off).. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF ... I was so looking forward to that - making the planets actually INTERESTING and worth exploring not just this bland industry-crap all around.

I would agree that cyberpunk will hit the playerbase more than GTA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to JC, the current planets are "good enough" so they "decided" to not put the new tech in and as a result not do the partial wipe for it. Frankly, if a dev says that something is "good enough" when it's clearly function but could be much better, there is other reasons and as he instantly also said that they intend to get new planets in sooner for me that means they were asked to not do the new tech as the wipe would mean more work and potential loss of claimed tiles as these would be reset as well (with TU returned to inventory. Settling for less when you know you can do better and have the tech to me is a big red flag and NQ made the wrong choices there and sacrificed the quality of their game for the benefit of some of the player base who have their ear.

Right? It's called thinking ahead. If you know that things will be upgraded in the future, build them so they can be...updated in the future. Don't claim it is because players want to keep their stuff...it's because you didn't think about how to future-proof the tech. Let's hope that they think about this more with the next updates...because we're not even out of beta yet, they shouldn't introduce "legacy" type content before public release lol.
