Gather your friends because crew missions are here!
This weeks experimental update gives you the chance to test out co-op crew missions. With this new feature you can share some mission rewards automatically with anyone in your crew. Players in your crew will also see objective markers. We are still looking at the balance here so expect changes before this goes live to everyone!
In addition we’ve also included the ability to give other players items. If you look at another player you can press E and give them the item you currently have equipped. This should make it a little easier to work together with players and share stuff like repair guns, ammo and more. You are also able to give other players mission critical items so that missions can be completed by other players.
But wait there’s more. A new skrill has awoken called the Disruptor! This new skrill can deploy a warp disruption field. Which will prevent ships caught within from warping away until they leave it’s radius or kill the disruptor. Be careful though because the disruptor is seldom seen alone.
We’ve also made some changes to the lighting in space as well as a new visual for the shield bubbles. This new effect only lights up when your shields are struck by a projectile or object.
As always, we’d appreciate any feedback you’re willing to provide it will only help us make the game better. A new experimental thread can be found here:
