Incubators

Incubators are basically player-deployable bio-mechanical breeding facilities. They are not plants by definition but they are using the same system like other plants and can be harvested with the same modules. The first item of this kind is the Noralgis and it is used to create Briochit, a new high-end component that is now an integral part of tier 4 items. Noralgis will not grow everywhere, you can read some planting hints in the ingame help. It can be planted on both alpha and beta islands, but will grow faster on the latter.

Can I have your stuff?

WTS T4 modules.

I would like to think that this new dynamic was meant to be small objectives to be fought over in Beta to give more reason to PvP besides high speed roaming/raiding. If i remember correctly from earlier talks they were supposed to be destructible?

Quote from developer blog:
"This plant will contain a new harvestable material for use in the manufacturing of high end items. Beware of people trying to harvest or even destroy your crops!"

you can destroy it like any other plant - shoot with turret weapon on a friend that is hiding behind it.

i've watched m2s for an hour doing that during beta, while i was mining nearby. There are many things to do while beeing bored...
