Hi! We miss you! DW2 isn’t quite the same animal as EE was. There will be a PG, it is possible that it will be my existing one, but we may create a new one. Because of the variety of potential experiences it may be that Open is the best place for some activities or experiences so we want everyone to feel they have a choice

With the numbers we're seeing, PG and Open should coexist nicely because there's no way everyone will fit into one instance. Braver pilots (the combat wing, for example) could even "scout" Open in advance, allowing for more vulnerable CMDRs to switch from PG to Open and back again as the need / desire arises.

Yes, It is intended to be a mix of roles, of game modes; everything. It's going to be really interesting to see how all the different kinds of players engage with it

Just Landed in Colonia, coming back from my 1st Long Range Expedition to The Galactic Core, Sagittarius A*, Beagle Point, Mare Desperationis, Boreas, and The Orio-Perseus Conflux in my Anaconda, "Snake Pliskin." It was a long voyage, but I saw a lot of cool sites along the way, can't wait for DW2.

Look me up on PS4 and Add Me, Gamer Tag: BigScho5276.

Looking forward to working with you all and meeting some new friendly folks along the way.


Safe Travels and Godspeed,

Diamondback Explorer - 21 ships (out of 182)

Alliance Chieftain - 3 ships (out of 24)

Imperial Cutter - 3 ships (out of 87)

Cobra MkIII - 2 ships (out of 33)
Federal Corvette - 2 ships (out of 32)
Imperial Eagle - 2 ships (out of 2) - PS4 is the only platform sending Imperial Eagles at the moment

Vulture - 2 ships (out of 3)

Do you know have other numbers easily available? I'm curious how PS4 compares specifically to XBox, PC, and maybe even Mac (if anyone still plays on Mac).

Distant Worlds 2: Fleet Logistics is recruiting gatherers to help with prelaunch activity.
We'll be gathering every single rare across the bubble and beyond.

Distant Worlds 2 is the most anticipated expedition launching in Q4 3304/Q1 3305.
It currently features over 2300 members who've signed up for it. It will be the largest community expedition since Distant Worlds.
Distant Worlds 2: Fleet Logistics is meta game that members of the fleet and others who haven't signed up can get involved in.

Before the launch we need gatherers to help gather rare commodities to store in our warehouse ship across all 3 platforms.
As a gatherer, you will be tasked to gather 5 tons of 45 different rare commodities that have been assigned to your platform.

The rares will then be preloaded into truckers who've signed up for the expedition and are called Truckers.

We're doing this to make this a truly cross platform event, requiring members across XB1, PS4 and PC to ensure complete mission success!

If you're interested, join and Signup here to discuss ship loadouts routes:
Discord and Gatherer and Trucker Signup

If you wish to be trucker, you will need to sign up for the expedition here as well:

you don't have to be flying a big ship with lots of cargo space even carrying one or two tons is alright.

Godspeed.

I think DW2 organizers should make a hologram ad for the stations. Frontier recently ran a contest that allowed players to make their own advert. It wouldn't need to be too detailed, just enough to spark people's interest to google "Distant Worlds 2". I run into dozens of players on PS4 who I've never seen here in the forums; they probably don't even know about this event.

Anyway, just a thought..

This sounds really interesting and fun, I just wish I had more time to play. No one told me about all this adult crap I would have to do when I signed on for this, lol.

Best of luck Commanders o7
