| 10s | E online players have played as pirates |
|---|---|
| 12s | for years and finally they'll be able to |
| 15s | do that a bit more legitimately just |
| 17s | like players have been able to enlist in |
| 18s | faction Warfare with an Empire of their |
| 20s | choice VI it Kari galente Amar or |
| 23s | minmatar you will be able to enlist with |
| 25s | a pirate faction of your choice this |
| 27s | will be either the Gus or the angel |
| 30s | cartel the guristas are going to be |
| 33s | going to war raiding the space uh that |
| 35s | has been destabilized in the calari |
| 38s | galente war zone and on the other side |
| 40s | of the universe the angels are doing |
| 42s | much the same thing raiding into the |
| 45s | space that has been disturbed by the |
| 47s | ongoing war between the Amar and the |
| 49s | minmatar during these insurgencies uh |
| 52s | the pirate factions will deploy a |
| 55s | forward operating base into the space |
| 57s | from which they'll begin to raid the |
| 58s | space around them as they raid the space |
| 61s | they will attempt to attack corporate |
| 63s | outposts harass mining fleets and so on |
| 68s | the more crimes that those pirates |
| 69s | commit the more the crime level goes up |
| 71s | in the system this is what we're calling |
| 73s | corruption on the flip side the Empire |
| 76s | militias who are attempting to control |
| 78s | that space can act as law enforcement |
| 80s | and they're looking to stop these pirate |
| 82s | raids in order to do this as they fight |
| 85s | off the Pirates they will increase the |
| 87s | law enforcement level uh in the system |
| 89s | which we are calling suppression as |
| 91s | corruption increases in the system uh |
| 94s | the effects in the system will become |
| 97s | cumulative uh as more crimes happen Law |
| 100s | and Order begins to break down and |
| 101s | that's roughly what corruption is |
| 103s | attempting to stimulate corruption is in |
| 106s | a sense good for the Pirates they Revel |
| 109s | in it so to speak uh as corruption in a |
| 112s | system increases it will grant various |
| 114s | bonuses to the space that will alter the |
| 116s | nature of the space uh while that |
| 118s | corruption level is elevated uh these |
| 121s | can range from relatively simple effects |
| 123s | such as players dropping more loot when |
| 125s | they explode or more complicated effects |
| 128s | uh such as uh the system almost dropping |
| 132s | in a security status dropping in a |
| 135s | security status at maximum corruption is |
| 137s | a tricky thing this is a bit of a |
| 139s | challenge for us we've already had a |
| 142s | security status of the space uh that |
| 143s | they were attacking Pirates will be able |
| 146s | to do the same thing when they can push |
| 147s | corruption to the maximum level for low |
| 150s | sex system that has reached maximum |
| 152s | corruption that system will begin to |
| 154s | feel more like nelac we'll accomplish |
| 156s | this with a simple package of effects |
| 158s | which allows the use of interdictions uh |
| 161s | bubble launchers bomb launchers and |
| 164s | heavy interdictor bubbles these three |
| 166s | key items are really what tends to |
| 169s | separate the feeling of low security |
| 172s | space from the feeling of n security |
| 174s | space it is only these three things that |
| 177s | become active all of the rest of the |
| 179s | rules that apply to low security space |
| 180s | still apply which makes this rule set a |
| 183s | little bit more lightweight and easy for |
| 184s | us to deploy to systems uh dynamically |
| 187s | through these in insurgencies as we need |
| 190s | to similarly for a highx system uh as |
| 195s | the corruption level increases in that |
| 197s | system a high sex system when it reaches |
| 199s | maximum level May begin to feel more |
| 201s | like a low sex system and we accomplish |
| 203s | this by simply making aggression against |
| 206s | a player ship uh result in only a |
| 210s | suspect timer and not a criminal timer |
| 213s | uh Concord only responds to criminal |
| 215s | timers and so that means that they will |
| 218s | not come after you if you shoot a player |
| 220s | ship but players will be able to respond |
| 223s | this is a bit more like lowc however |
| 226s | criminal timers are still possible if |
| 229s | you attack a capsule of a player for |
| 231s | example which also in lowc generates a |
| 233s | criminal timer then Concord will still |
| 236s | respond making these corrupted highx |
| 238s | systems feel even a bit more diff |
| 240s | uh than loac they are kind of a very |
| 243s | unique type of space on the flip side as |
| 246s | suppression increases we also wanted to |
| 248s | make that feel uniquely impactful in the |
| 251s | same way that corruption does and |
| 253s | suppression being the law enforcement of |
| 255s | a system we are largely seeking for that |
| 257s | to feel more secure as the militia |
| 260s | players complete activities and they |
| 261s | increase the suppression of a system uh |
| 263s | there will also be a different set of |
| 265s | effects that suppression can apply and |
| 267s | note that these are not mutually |
| 268s | exclusive we could have level five |
| 270s | suppression and level five corruption |
| 272s | effects in a system at the same exact |
| 274s | time suppression is the law enforcement |
| 277s | effect on a system um just how well |
| 280s | locked down the system is it is the |
| 282s | suppression of free movement and |
| 285s | everything else that the criminals make |
| 287s | use of as suppression increases various |
| 290s | things will happen uh Concord will start |
| 292s | paying a little bit more for pirate |
| 293s | Bounties in those systems the militias |
| 296s | will get bonuses even including the |
| 299s | possibility of fairly potent PVP bonuses |
| 302s | such as an increase to webon scram range |
| 304s | which will really change the nature of |
| 306s | PVP in these systems and at level five |
| 310s | they'll even secure Gates and stations |
| 313s | more than they normally would be when |
| 315s | suppression hits level five the security |
| 317s | forces in the system will attempt to uh |
| 320s | lock down the system and they'll do this |
| 322s | by deploying upgraded sentry guns to |
| 324s | Gates and stations in the system to make |
| 327s | travel a little bit safer for |
| 329s | law-abiding |
| 330s | citizens these upgraded sentry guns will |
| 333s | be quite aggressive uh at punishing |
| 336s | criminal behavior and they hit a lot |
| 337s | harder than your standard sentry gun um |
| 340s | so the goal here being it's really hard |
| 342s | to actually gate Camp these systems if |
| 344s | these sentry guns have been put in place |
| 347s | as systems are fully corrupted the |
| 348s | Pirates will score a point towards their |
| 351s | progress in the Insurgency and as |
| 353s | systems are fully suppressed the militia |
| 356s | factions will score a point towards |
| 358s | their side in the Insurgency when the |
| 360s | anti-pirate factions have reached their |
| 361s | target point value then the pirate fob |
| 364s | will become vulnerable similar to upwell |
| 368s | structures this has a single |
| 369s | reinforcement timer uh so players will |
| 371s | have to shoot the Shields and then |
| 373s | return to destroy the structure giving |
| 375s | Pirates a lasted chance to attempt to |
| 377s | protect it on the pirate side if they |
| 380s | hit their goal they pack up their Loot |
| 382s | and leave this corruption will also |
| 384s | begin to spread these systems which the |
| 386s | Pirates are attacking those systems that |
| 388s | are under active insurgence |
| 390s | will grow naturally as you as a pirate |
| 393s | player increase the corruption of system |
| 396s | it will reach the spread threshold when |
| 398s | the spread threshold is reached for an |
| 400s | individual system it will preferentially |
| 402s | spread adjacent to that system if it can |
| 406s | if it can't spread from that system then |
| 407s | it will still spread but it will be |
| 409s | adjacent to another system in the |
| 410s | Insurgency zone so you always wind up |
| 413s | with a contiguous set of systems which |
| 415s | is which are in the Insurgency which is |
| 417s | the dynamic war zone that we've looked |
| 419s | to create create what we were really |
| 421s | trying to do with this was create a |
| 423s | system where unlike faction Warfare |
| 426s | where the set of systems in uh the war |
| 428s | zone are very static we wanted to see |
| 431s | what it would be like to create a war |
| 432s | zone which uh naturally changed over |
| 435s | time and was a bit more flexible and bit |
| 438s | different every time it spawned uh |
| 440s | making a lot of use of local geography |
| 443s | to make it particularly unique and |
| 445s | interesting the other thing that we |
| 447s | really wanted to accomplish with these |
| 449s | insurgencies is we wanted to create a a |
| 451s | war feature that was discreet in faction |
| 455s | Warfare right now uh that is an eternal |
| 457s | War those players are going to push and |
| 459s | pull on those systems uh probably until |
| 461s | the end of time but with the Insurgency |
| 463s | system uh a set of system spawns points |
| 467s | are pushed up towards uh completion and |
| 469s | once one faction has won they get a |
| 472s | bonus for winning and then the |
| 474s | Insurgency ends when Insurgency starts |
| 477s | it will choose a system where the fob |
| 479s | will spawn once it's chosen a system |
| 482s | where the fob will spawn it then chooses |
| 483s | the initial set of systems that will |
| 486s | have Insurgency content those will be |
| 488s | the systems that players will need to |
| 490s | compete over first when it becomes |
| 492s | active however when the fob is |
| 494s | originally placed the Insurgency is in a |
| 496s | forecasting State uh the Pirates are |
| 499s | still setting up the raid hasn't started |
| 501s | the security forces haven't been able to |
| 503s | bust down the door yet this is the |
| 505s | period where we let you as the player |
| 507s | know where the Insurgency is going to be |
| 509s | giving you a a chance to get your ships |
| 512s | into position or out of out of Harm's |
| 514s | Way uh depending on what how you want to |
| 517s | interact with it before the actual |
| 519s | Insurgency begins in the war zone the |
| 522s | Insurgency is intended to be a |
| 524s | destabilizing force if the pirate |
| 527s | factions are unequal uh then eventually |
| 530s | we will likely see that one side being |
| 533s | uh losing most of their space uh with |
| 535s | the other side being particularly |
| 537s | dominant the Insurgency is meant to come |
| 540s | in and disrupt that when one faction has |
| 543s | more systems the Insurgency will prefer |
| 546s | to attack that uh faction space and if |
| 549s | the Pirates are successful in their |
| 551s | Insurgency they will actually steal a |
| 553s | system from the faction when they do |
| 556s | when that system is stolen the Pirates |
| 557s | will have Sovereign ownership of it for |
| 559s | a limited period of time until they |
| 562s | decide to focus elsewhere and they |
| 565s | simply Let It Go when they let that |
| 567s | system go it will return to its previous |
| 569s | owner however it returns to the previous |
| 571s | owner with very little control over the |
| 574s | system as the ihub will be vulnerable to |
| 576s | attack immediately by the opposing |
| 578s | faction so if the owning faction wants |
| 580s | to rescure that system they will need to |
| 583s | defend that ihub and Plex the system |
| 586s | back down if you decide to align with a |
| 587s | pirate faction there are a number of |
| 589s | great rewards in store for you both |
| 591s | factions have brand new LP stores with |
| 593s | rewards that are only available from |
| 595s | Insurgency content the angels have the |
| 597s | new aeriel the angel faction |
| 600s | which is truly beautiful and in the |
| 602s | gista lp store you can find all of the |
| 604s | gista capital blueprints sub Capital |
| 606s | blueprints gista skins and more with the |
| 609s | pirate insurgencies we've intentionally |
| 611s | designed the system to be open and |
| 613s | sandboxy and dynamic and interesting and |
| 616s | I can't wait to see what you do with it |
| 618s | and what stories you |
| 626s | make |
