Another ND Interview

Injustice

Truth be told, when I saw the concept art drawing of the new conflux, it piqued my interest more than even the new in-game screenshots. Making the conflux into more than just an annoyance to most pilots (outside of sent encounters) would be a big plus in my book.

Screw the previews and teasers Drake, when the hell can we start playing it and playing with it?

Does someone work on a sort of written transcription of this interview ? .... (it's hard for me to understand all

)

dahalb

The interview is nearly 2 hours long but i will work on some extracts if ppl want it.

I was hoping there would be something more difinative about a built in voice chat system. Not everyone has access to an open voice chat system. If i'ts built in the end user only needs speekers and microphone. End users also don't have to futs around with addresses and passwords.

Are we going to be able to form groups? Or are we still going to be open ended? Groups allow people to see group member status and whereabouts. It will also make voice chat easyer to implement. If anything easyer to implement a group only text chat.

What about friends lists and enemy lists.

In the interview it was said there is realy no need for a bazaar system due to the lack of player tradeable items. EHEM! Even as the game currently exists, How the heck do I find people to buy my artifacts without spam advertising? Hint Hint. player might find it more profitable to auction items they spent hours producing rather than take the measly pentence selling to a station will give them. An auction house or terminals are esential, even if its for the purpose of telling the player what POS they have to go to to get the item.

I totaly understand the reason for not opening up beta before ND is comfortable with the games presentation. Still, Git Er Dun

NOWWW!!

Overall, things sound good. Cant wait for beta!

Im 100% sure safe zones in one form (civ chips) or another (Uber AI in certain zones) will be in Jumpgate Evolution.

I doubt they will be totally safe. Probably just more secure than sectors on the frontier. But who knows, it's still in development.

Liet

I am not pleased. I hate when people have the option of hiding behind tags.

Be accountable for your words, pansies.
