Status
That sounds odd I most say. The company MA has signed with are using another companys platform for casino which mean i reckon they most have implemented that too?

why would they give away hats and stuff when I bet not a singel of the current users knows about this?
 
Doesnt mindark have a little of a facebookattentionsyndrom? They feel the need to post something just to post something eventho its not done, finished or whatever?

Im not saying this is not happening, Im just saying that Mindark are quick on giving us information about stuff thats might happening.


Are you new to Facebook?? What do you think happens there?

Items being given out for the casino have nothing to do with items in EU since its completely separate, so it would hold no bearing to EU items or its economy.

I know that very well.
Do customers(current users) im speaking of is the casino customers.
 
I guess we are just one space link away from a full virtual casino..
The strongboxes was the first omen.

I think linking space between EU, Casino, Human project or others to come would corrupt the various aspects the platform can be utilized in, its a white label virtual world system when you think about it. I wouldn't worry too much about a direct crossover.

Well if you go to the casino and head to the virtual section you see this

So yes they mention Entropia Universe and Mindark but only as the platform that they are using for this casino so in my opinion EU will just stay as its always been.

Sounds good to me
 
I think MindArk had started marketing on Facebook some months ago and invited players to share the Entropia in there profile... That has been closed down by MindArk?
 
10 years ago MA would do everything to avoid any conotations with gambling, now they don't care. That drift shows direction where they are heading. SF RCE MMO into anything what brings money.
 
Will they use EU servers and lag us ?

I think thats in part due to the general acceptance for gambling sites these days.
Compared to 5yrs ago when various governments were cracking down/creating laws and making sure they get their slice of it.When the US banned it it didnt even skip a beat just changed forms a little and back to business.
A lot of that seems to have settled a bit.
I think most have conceded its unstoppable and are just happy to get the tax's from those that fess up to it.

The lines have been blurred a bit more these days also with 'funny money'(net only currencies) being gambled on hundreds of 'non gaming' sites.
 
Will they use EU servers and lag us ?

Servers are regional to EU, you can almost see the boxes on the maps. Each planet runs on a unique server or group of servers, so what happens on one server won't affect the others. Ever log into a message that you've been relocated due to a particular region being unavailable? It's due to a server being overloaded or undergoing maintinance, doesn't crash all EU, just goes down in that particular region.
 
Will they use EU servers and lag us ?

EU servers , no. EU itself runs on multiple servers.

Same server farm, probably yes simply to reduce overheads like Rental/tech guy etc..

I would say it took them longer then it should have to realise the potential there. 10 years of watching EU crowd probably finally showed them the potential that the area has. It would have been much better for them had they moved into it much earlier. :)
 
Except that their not, they're just providing infrastructure and platform. They've no stake in the project at all.
