There's no scheduled downtime on Duality, however you're also welcome to kill people there so clever bubble/decloak tricks are always an option. As is moving your tests next door and forcing them to move over another spy or lose access to your home.



ETA?

ASAP, but there's still a few things that need to get done. I'll be contacting the captains soon to discuss.

Evemail to the captain character will be my first choice.

Will there be sets of beacons similar to actual arena in training systems?

i'd just like to say that we are not whining and that we are super grateful for what veritas (and whoever else helped him) has done for us, the extras would be nice but I'm sure every one will still be happy IRREGARDLESS

also to quote jesus on twitter

@MisterVee_ Focusing on getting all the Duality stuff up and running atm, then we'll turn our attention back to the other stuff.

+1

also +1 to the idea of having an SP pool available to test on chars without the skills currently.

waiting on Duality with high expectations! ....

I just sent an evemail to each tournament captain with a request for information in preparation for opening Duality. For the one team that we don't have a registered captain for, we sent it to the executor corp CEO.

Check your mails and reply to me when you get a chance, and please read the formatting instructions carefully.

We're almost there.

Two answer publicly two questions I've gotten so far:
Each assigned system will have a seeded market, cloning and repair services. So no need for difficult logistics.
The captain character will be given the ability to change the password for the system at will.

I hope there will be strong consequences for buying all the ships in someone's testing system to, for example, ruin a busy weekend for someone prior to the tournament. Even if it's a ban on a single character, that might be worth it for some people to totally disrupt a team's testing ~

It would also be nice if you could eliminate/disable remote market data and APIs, i.e. you should not be able to scrape time history market data from someone's testing system.

Hadn't planned on it. What function would it provide you that a jetcan doesn't?

I think it's the arena bubble that would be most beneficial for the teams - to have a clear visual boundary for the practice fights. The beacons then just add the authenticity to warp-in vectors (as long as their position is the same like in the real arena system).

But yeah, jetcan will do too ... Blink

also thought of a jetcan at first. But:
1. Authentic warp-in vectors
2. Excludes possibility of finding out "I don't have beacons in my overview" 2 minutes before the fight
3. Looks and feels..well, again authentic.

So yeah, it is not a big problem if that is not done, but still if that's not a big problem - would be just great (seems like I'm not the only one liking the idea)
