Steam post image New features

Added the new PvP patch that affects how rewards are distributed:

  • Beginner protection now extends to level 18 during all hours, on the newbies faction maps

  • Destroying a weaker player that is below level 22 will make the system compare your gear, and decide whether the target was significantly weaker.

  • Destroying ship above and included level 22, will now provide higher mission progress, based on their strength (minimum is 1x)

  • On maps b1 b2 b3 the weaker opponent check is disabled, and even very weak players provide you with progress.

Added passive boosts for levelling up.

  • Levels 1-21 receive 1% HP and Shield bonus (for their own ship) per level. (The bonus is kept on all levels)

  • Starting level 22, you will gain 1.5% Honor and Experience boost that is shared to clan mates on same map (you yourself cant benefit from it)

  • Maximum is 10% Experience and honor boost, if the clan has an active battle station, cap is raised to 25% (each)

  • Clan base strength (HP, SHD, Module - dmg, boosters - power) is now affected by who builds them, if below level 20, the base and booster modules become weaker (-2% for HP, SHD, and DMG, -0.1% removed from boosters and 2% longer building time). If above, the values become flipped, and the base and modules become stronger, and the base is also built faster.

Changes

  • Gear point system adjusted to be more accurate

  • Adjusted tutorial texts to be more informational for beginners

  • Multibank visible on first map boot up is now not visible.

  • Tutorial now shows up in the middle of the screen for the first time.

  • Swarm of flies and expedition into unknown missions received locked map subcondition.

Fixes

  • Refactored base booster logic. ALL CHANGES WILL BE MONITORED CLOSELY.
