[DW3] Distant Worlds 3 Website & Roster Signups

Its all there. Are you using phone or pc to see the website? Found phone access to webpage is awful. Much better on my laptop.
Unfortunately, the downsides of us all being amateurs... we're working on improving the mobile site as we can but website dev is not any of our strong suits :)

We're working on adding more features to the site but mobile layout considerations are something we would like to fix if we can figure it out.

That was honestly not a criticism. You have done an amazing job. It is more a reflection of my old knackered phone. The webpage when accessed through browser on PC is outstanding. I can be a harsh observer at times. Apologies.
 
How long will registration be open for? I'm undecided right now...not sure I have time to jump 1000 Lyrs every week day...
But this sounds really cool!

I'd probably bring along my DBX, Mandalay and Anaconda for mining.
Still undecided about DBX vs Mandalay. Mandalay is statically better but I still like the DBX. It's such a small thing but I like being able to look out the sides without looking at a big block in the way :) It's also easier to land on planets.
Anyway...I saw something about passengers. Just curious how does that work?

No exact schedule yet, but we'll keep everyone apprised. I expect it to be open for quite a while. For reference, DW2's roster didn't close until after the technical expedition launch.

I would guess the jumping requirement no longer applies now there are carriers? You can just sit docked on the carrier on days you can't play?
 
can i participate in open?
some texts suggest that open is viable (on your own risk), but one checkbox at the registration states that the event is pg-only...

That's what the expedition carriers are there for. Those who can jump, do. The others travel along (with a ship or without) on one or another of the carriers and get out of their deck chairs whenever they like.
 
At 70ly jump ranges, thats about 14 jumps per day, roughly 15 minutes.

Carriers would take 40 minutes. ((15*2)+(5*2))

Even less if using neutrons.

Here's a Mandalay build for people, only engineering the FSD, capable of 70ly jumps: https://s.orbis.zone/r0e7

Get the FSD Booster and you're over 80ly.

... you know, it's sorta disgusting how hard getting 70ly was in the past compared to now. >_>

Just imagine.. going to buy a Sidewinder and hearing the people delivering it asking
"Why's a multi-billionionaire buying a basic.. unmodified Sidewinder?"
"I dunno, man.. I just work here and don't ask questions."
