Distant Citizens

A Distant Worlds 3 Crossplay Event

Fellow Explorers and Entrepreneurs!

We have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to provide you the best content any Science Fiction game can offer, because you just deserve. The Distant Worlds 3 Organization Team is proud to yet make another fantastic announcement. We have successfully entered a partnership with Robert Space Industries and are working on an awesome cross-game event that we call Distant Citizens!

Yes, we plan to bring both the Elite Dangerous and the Star Citizen communities together in a Gargantuan effort. How is that possible you ask? Right!

Distant Citizens will lorewise become possible by incorporating the Raxxla myth of (star?) portals between galaxies and hence into both the lore of the Elite Dangerous and the Star Citizen ‘verses. We already have a Retconning Team thinking stuff up in order to streamline both universes' timelines accordingly. It's still unclear at this moment how and where such portal technology will be implemented and available but we envision cross-game Community Goals along with weekly Letters of both Chairmen updating you, the content deprived players, about what the actual freck is going on.

Distant Citizens will probably take place in 3351 and pick up a number of known (read: notorious) ideas you all will have encountered at one point or another already, so with your familiarity it will be easy to just hop into the game or the store and fly dangerous.

The event will be open ended and will include such fantastic and innovative events like
  • Flying to another star system
  • Purchasing spaceships with real ingame currency
  • Working elevators
  • Consumables that make sense (Burritos, Space Noodles, etc.)
  • Sniper Rifles with an exceptional range of 75 meters
  • Night Vision goggles without Engineer unlock
  • ServerMashingTM (sic!)
  • Instancing for up to 3 players
  • Seemless transition from login screen to disconnect message
  • Augmented Reality integration of overly technology-reliant megacorps out for your bucks
  • The Latest STTD (Support Ticket Time Dilation) Technology
We are currently exchanging ideas with Frontier Developments and the RSI Dev team and will update you as soon as we have new details about this awesome event!

But last and not least we would also like you, the pay cattle esteemed players, to list your ideas here that we may have overlooked. Let us come together on this special day and make an impact - figuratively!

Let’s make it (probably) happen!

I propose a further expansion of the crossover possibilities: we should bring Hello Games on board and call it "No Man's Distant Citizens".

The key selling point of this Cosmic Rule of Three, this Galactic Triple Entante will be, as you might have guessed:
An event that starts out to be absolutely abysmally bad to deter all the casuals, then wading through an endless patch orgy that will give many participants anxiety attacks, after which 2/3 of the rest of the event will actually be quite pleasant, even exciting and memorable.
