In the past 2 weeks, the following have been ironed out:
Agent Personalities , backstories and AI Decisions based on them.
Operation Titan Scenario: The game tutorial that will be featured in playtest #2.
In-game Game Manual Kickstart.
Game Visual Improvements
Operation Titan
The playtest scenario is also the tutorial of the game. It will guide you through all early mechanics of the game while it acts as a prelude to the main story that will continue on the demo and later on the main campaign.
Your boss at the Operation Titan Scenario, Damian Croft is not yet another NPC. He has a personality and he will take decisions based on it. You unveil their personalitym traits and backstory through HR Department with proper screening.
The Backstory of every CEO is openly available.
There are 22 Personalities and 45 Traits.
Are you looking for a Loyal employee or simply for a Professional?
Personality might not be enough when trying to get the best from your agents. A Kleptomaniac might be a bad idea to employ as a Bagman but surely a Silver Tongued Sales Rep will be an asset.
Not all traits are good or bad though. Hire a Copycat Designer to increase production speed at the expense of Quality...
The Whitepaper
Among the stacks of papers, you will uncover an important Handbook. It will become your most important companion in your quest for Financial Success. This is not an ordinary Manual. The Whitepaper has been written by a Legend of the Past.
Wrapping Up
To be sincere, I would want to write up more here. But I am not sure if anyone can actually read to the end. Therefore, I will wrap up with some Playtest news.
The initial plays were made by me and I ended up deciding to add an extra chapter. Both to increase the length of it but also to make the gameplay smoother. I am going to add the Muscle resource in the playtest, alongside with Guard Posts and Syphoon Funds.
