"Is it time yet?"
Viewing post in Devlog Oct 29th - V2.30 - Early Access Started comments
Looking forward to the update....and still hope we will see mány more to come!
I think there is still a lot of potency to the game's storyline.
In the existing content, there's still the final Base-Upgrades for the Turret and Shield.... though in an earlyer reply, Y.V did indicate that such an endeavour should have some logical purpose... to which i dó agree :)
Idk.. 'thinking out loud'.... Could it be a suggestion to add these upgrades in line with the Bot-Initiative on Tenaris?... as a follow-up quest to the existing questline? Idk.. the Bot-Initiative on Iltari would contact the Player for a more permanent cooperation...yet with the hostile Bot-faction in the vicinity, this could cause retaliations? ... Enter Base-Upgrades to defend against such incursions... It could perhaps also 'trigger' the final Base-upgrades for the Base's interiors(also still locked away? ^^).
Adding the Bot-Initiative on Tenaris could perhaps open the option to 'furnish' the Base-Interior, add a whole new 'Interface' with a few extra rooms, where not only the Bot-Initiative would help operate the Base, but also help automize the Auto-Trading function(would cost the player 2 or 3 of the 5 Cargo-Drones? but would result in a daily trade-profit of a few hundred-K credits?...idk... thinking out loud on this..)
As for future updates... there 'once' was a rumor of adding the Regal system to the game's Universe-Map?(Regal: Seraphine's home-system?)... though i think this system was set beyond the Waystation?.... There's still the Homesystems of T'riss, and Nimhe too, as a potential option?
As for NXO10... Vee? ... The Swarm Nexus is and remains a mystery... there's still possibility's there too!
Only little addition to future content i would suggest: The competion of the Xenos-Librairy Research, regarding the 5th fragment? ... as plenty of additional quests have been added since this was originally released... perhaps the competion of this could 'get an extra swing'... in the meaning of: Ensure the player is to complete the extra content, before the Waystation-System is unlocked?
...which brings another option too perhaps: Extra content in this Waystation-system too?
Either way, looking forward to the next update(s)!
Kind regards,
Tera'
Thanks for the suggestions! V2.50 will contain a base defense strategy minigame and the turrets and shields will come in too. You can also place infiltrators spys on different space stations to collect info on upcaming attacks...
Interior room for base will come too with that version.
Xenos will be focus of entire V2.40 already (puplished publicly today on itch) ;)
Oh goody!!!
That does look promising and interesting!!
Computing Power,Cyber-defense, Surface Defense: AI-cores, Argus-Units and Shield-Generators.... ok ^^, Orbital/Ground defense: Primairy Weapons and... Bot-crates? Backed up by a strong Infiltrator-botshell?(Abyssal Queen?)... nvm, you're showing an early concept design, which will be worked out in detail, before release... Again looks promising!!
(when will 2.50 hit? hahaha!... just kidding, take your time! you've yet to dissapoint us, and patience towards a next update, has always been well-rewarded!!)
Regarding that special Abyssal Queen-Botshell(1.67B value.. 2.39B sale-record for me, so far!)... is thát one somehow connected to...this or... anything in the near future btw?, just curious.
No worried on a personal note... i've replayed the game, several times now... i got over a dozen of those expensive Abyssal Botshells in stock...( i know.. i over-did it haha... but i recall you mentioning 'to keep one in stock for future updates, as they would receive some purpose too at a point?)..
But... to suggest a bit more, regarding any 'propable' System-expansions:
T'riss: Being the most solid and reliable officer on the ship, visiting hér homesystem, to report to hér peers, giving of a spléndid report... etc etc...Could lead to a few quests in thát specific system... some 'lewdity' as a reward? hehe
Nimhe: Idk, the story of 'her getting a bit out of favor with her peole for going beyond stuff that they usually do: Nimhe doesnt really care about rules, but about what is possible.... get the player to do some stuff to get her back in favor with her people again'?
Vee/Swarm Nexus: Still a mysterious chapter.... i think to properly indtriduce this as a chapter/update, some more pre-events should be occuring? A Swarm-revolt: the current leaders being overthrown, due to the player 'making sport of Swarm-elite forces under the Leader's authority': the player is embarrassing them so much, the swarm start to realise: their leaders arent that good, at all? ..Vee could play a role in that too perhaps?
Regal-system/Seraphine: After all the trouble, hardship, adventures etc the player went through with princess Seraphine, visiting the Regal Empire, and gaining an audience with her father, the Emperor himself, Seraphine actually stcking her neck out for the Player, how he kept her safe, treated her with great respect(ahem...) and Seraphine simply CHOOSING herself to STAY on the Bumbling Bee, alongside the crew and player, keeping her role as the ship's 'Logistical Expert' or some(her chambermaid could fill a role in that extent too perhaps?)
Every System that is 'listed' above, couldalso have its own Pirate-saga, Bot-colelctive, and sidequests over time, adding.... FOUR more Systems to the Map?... haha, ok this might sound a bit overkill too.. but...
as i said: i see still so much potential in this game's story, and hope to see many more Updates!
Ps... there's also that 'closed down-Bot shop' in Iltari Station, remember? haha!
Anyway.. 2.40 will keep me busy again for a while, and the 2.50 'preview'... well, that is something i'll look forward too!
King regards,
Tera'
