No one is going to buy the game because zoom is never going to sell. Maybe they will default on loans and the game will have to be sold but if they can manage it they will keep the game going even if not a single new player joins in a year

Where do I need to stage bots?
Can we do this on a beta like at icsb?

If the game and all of its content in development could be sold for 300k USD or less they might find a studio to purchase it considering its current state of reviews and player population.

Sorry zoom, all the blood and tears put into building this great concept is still only as good as those willing to buy into it. At the moment there's no content release or balance that might be able to bring it back from the dead without previous players thinking it's under new management.

It still comes down to showing up for saps regardless of how anyone wants to spin the mechanics.

I'd like to see a skill that would raise the slope capability of a scarab per level so that it could fly over terrain even lights can't go on

If you were doing exploration for example it might give you random junk you would normally pick up artifact in including cortex/kernals. Combat would drop damaged modules kernals fragments plasma etc.

I like the concept and would mind seeing something like that but I don't like your layout of tele. I fear it would require another revamp that may take a year or more. There are more important things to be fixed.

I would make those specific destination beacons visible from anywhere on an island and require a 30 minute spool. Those would have a significant impact on pvp. It should cost a decent amount of resources and be player seeded from artifact ct.

If not a beta then another gamma. Gamma might be better

What about a long cycle time? 60 seconds for t1 and goes to 30 seconds for t4?

You only get the fitting info after its complete.

Clever recruitment. Might have altera fix his recruitment post

No need for more teleports. Layout is bomb, if anything it needs adjusting for deployable walls on beta with tele/sap/terminal limiting locations where walls can be placed.

Want more ways on and off an island so scouts can't camp? Make inter zone effective again and so that you get 0 syndicate time and it throws you between 300 and 750 away from teleport. Might land out of range of pro probe or may land on a waiting camper with no protection.
