| 4s | in the Equinox expansion we want to make |
|---|---|
| 7s | NX space have more meaning for players |
| 9s | this is a combination of allowing you |
| 11s | more customization options for content |
| 13s | and activities as well as creating |
| 16s | topology planets in a star system will |
| 19s | now be integral to the function of that |
| 21s | system and how useful the system is |
| 24s | strategically the upv Consortium has |
| 27s | been a huge part of NC since the |
| 29s | introduction of citadels in |
| 31s | 2016 now we're proud to be presenting |
| 34s | the next steps in transforming nulc from |
| 36s | a space you live into a home providing |
| 39s | more tools and content to allow the |
| 41s | inhabitants to shape the space to their |
| 43s | needs by improving mechanisms |
| 46s | streamlining ownership and allowing more |
| 48s | customization options for activities and |
| 50s | content within your Empires we are |
| 53s | creating the foundations for the future |
| 54s | of nsec a space that means and matters |
| 57s | more to you with the Equinox Suite up |
| 60s | well is introducing major new structures |
| 62s | the orbital Skyhook sovereignty Hub and |
| 65s | metox Mundra from a UI perspective our |
| 69s | focus is on enhancing inp space |
| 71s | interactions reducing friction and |
| 73s | ensuring smooth usability when engaging |
| 75s | with these structures with dedicated |
| 77s | inspace UI you can simly deposit Fuel |
| 80s | and hack objectives all while accessing |
| 82s | crucial information at a glance the |
| 85s | streamlined interface will Empower you |
| 87s | to interact with the structures |
| 88s | effortlessly without breaking imersion |
| 91s | the orbital Skyhook will be required to |
| 93s | extract resources from a planet with |
| 95s | each new resource power Workforce |
| 98s | reagents there will be Planet archetypes |
| 101s | that can only produce that type of |
| 103s | resource this means that some systems |
| 106s | with an abundance of one type of Planet |
| 108s | but none of the others will have |
| 110s | limitations on what upgrades the system |
| 113s | can |
| 114s | provide in terms of upw Well's new |
| 116s | technology the orbital Skyhook will be |
| 119s | the anchor extracting resources from the |
| 121s | planet Sovereign owners of a star system |
| 124s | will be able to deploy these giant |
| 126s | structures as a replacement for the |
| 128s | customs Office firstly replacing but |
| 131s | retaining the functionality of Customs |
| 133s | offices as a resource interface for |
| 136s | planetary industry and secondly opening |
| 139s | up an extraction of new resources |
| 141s | introduced with eoms power Workforce |
| 144s | reagents power comes from Suns plasma |
| 147s | and storm planets it's a hard limitation |
| 148s | that determines how many upgrades |
| 150s | sovereignty Hub Canen online Workforce |
| 152s | consists of people Specialists and tools |
| 154s | that are required to run these upgrades |
| 156s | it's a softer limitation and you can |
| 158s | move them from system to system although |
| 160s | some conditions apply reagents are two |
| 162s | new fuel types essentially that come |
| 164s | from lava and Ice planets you need them |
| 166s | to keep the upgrades lights on and |
| 167s | they're also using the metano moon drill |
| 170s | they're freely exchangeable so the |
| 171s | economic types might want to pay |
| 173s | attention to whole new markets opening |
| 175s | up perceptive types will notice that |
| 177s | power is a bit of Baseline but the other |
| 179s | two especially the other two have |
| 181s | potential for disruption messing with an |
| 183s | enemy Workforce by attacking a |
| 185s | sovereignty hub's Workforce transfer |
| 187s | complex or a Workforce providing Skyhook |
| 189s | directly or starving them of an |
| 191s | essential Regent prior to an attack are |
| 193s | now viable strategems and new meaningful |
| 195s | conflict drivers for Raiders and |
| 197s | attackers with these resources extracted |
| 200s | both power and Workforce will become |
| 202s | available to use in the sovereignty help |
| 205s | however reagents both magmatic gas and |
| 208s | superionic ice will need to be collected |
| 211s | and distributed with the introduction of |
| 213s | colony resources you can now tap into |
| 215s | the wealth of resources available on |
| 217s | planets within your territory you can |
| 219s | easily access information about power |
| 222s | Workforce and reagent distribution |
| 224s | through the agency window under the |
| 226s | resource harvesting tab you can search |
| 229s | and filter for specific resources their |
| 231s | availability and quantity empowering you |
| 234s | to make informed decisions about |
| 235s | expanding your Sovereign space and |
| 237s | Target valuable star systems as power |
| 240s | and Workforce will be required for |
| 242s | sovereignty upgrades there is fresh |
| 244s | opportunity for players looking to |
| 246s | sabotage and create more disruptive type |
| 249s | gameplay by choosing to destroy the sky |
| 251s | hooks these structures will behave very |
| 254s | similarly to medium upwell structures |
| 257s | with a single Shield reinforcement and |
| 259s | damage caps on both armor and |
| 261s | hle Sky hooks will not stop working |
| 264s | while |
| 266s | reinforced we've also created a new form |
| 268s | of Hit and Run gameplay around the these |
| 270s | structures by allowing you to hack the |
| 272s | structures in the style of an ESS Heist |
| 275s | which will allow you to steal resources |
| 277s | from them and sell them |
| 279s | off reagents in the Skyhook will also |
| 282s | have a period of maturation within the |
| 284s | structure to ensure that there is always |
| 286s | some form of vulnerability from the |
| 288s | theft |
| 289s | gameplay and due to the attention these |
| 291s | new structures have created they'll draw |
| 293s | the notice of local pirate forces so be |
| 296s | wary of warping to these structures in |
| 298s | undefended haulers |
| 300s | the concept behind the introduction of |
| 302s | the sovereignty Hub is to refresh and |
| 305s | enhance the existing sovereignty |
| 306s | management and system upgrade mechanics |
| 309s | and gameplay in player controlled nsec |
| 312s | by replacing the existing sovereignty |
| 314s | structures the territorial claim unit |
| 317s | and the infrastructure Hub with a brand |
| 319s | new Central management structure called |
| 321s | the sovereignty Hub the key feature of |
| 323s | the sovereignty Hub is sovereignty |
| 325s | upgrades these upgrades serve as the |
| 327s | primary means through which you can |
| 329s | improve systems you control providing |
| 332s | value to the owner of the space and |
| 334s | creating drive to capture space which in |
| 337s | turn is intended to ignite territorial |
| 340s | conflicts sovereignty upgrades currently |
| 343s | exist in game however these new upgrades |
| 345s | will offer more meaningful choices |
| 348s | renewing your passion for controlling |
| 349s | space while creating interesting choices |
| 352s | about how best to utilize and specialize |
| 354s | the systems you |
| 356s | own one example of the improved Sol |
| 358s | upgrades is the addition of a new Hardo |
| 361s | combat anomaly for the pirate detection |
| 363s | array upgrade furthermore all of these |
| 366s | sites detected by this array will now |
| 368s | have a chance to escalate with the |
| 370s | possibility of an officer escalation and |
| 373s | a combat site for |
| 374s | capitals another upgrade will allow the |
| 377s | detection of previously undiscovered |
| 378s | ores so you can choose what minerals in |
| 381s | your system will provide and potentially |
| 383s | reduce manufacturing bottlenecks for |
| 385s | those of you in managerial roles a |
| 387s | dedicated interface offers the ability |
| 389s | to install and prioritize upgrades here |
| 392s | you can design your desired layouts for |
| 394s | upgrades monitor resources available to |
| 396s | the sovereignty Hub and manage Workforce |
| 399s | transport efficiently this interface |
| 401s | provides a centralized hub for strategic |
| 403s | decision- making allowing managers to |
| 406s | optimize the territory |
| 408s | effectively additionally all players |
| 411s | within a sof holding Alliance can now |
| 413s | track Alliance progress receive updates |
| 415s | and gain insights into their soft space |
| 417s | activities through the corporation |
| 419s | window we've revamped the alliance tab |
| 422s | dedicating a section specifically to |
| 424s | sovereignty our goal here is to strike a |
| 427s | balance between Clarity accessibility |
| 429s | and engaging Aesthetics by incorporating |
| 432s | table layouts for easy sorting |
| 434s | introducing Furs for enhanced research |
| 437s | and integrating graphical data |
| 439s | representation for items such as |
| 441s | resource allocation and fuel consumption |
| 444s | we aim to deliver an interface that not |
| 446s | only informs but captivates ensuring you |
| 449s | stay engaged and up to dat about the |
| 451s | state of your territory Equinox will |
| 453s | also introduce a new Deployable |
| 454s | structure the metox moon drill this |
| 457s | structure can be deployed at moons in LC |
| 461s | nulc and Wormhole space and is fueled by |
| 464s | some of the new reagents the metox moon |
| 467s | drill will slowly collect the resources |
| 469s | obtained from Mining and refining |
| 471s | mools although the metox is less |
| 473s | efficient than if the resources were |
| 475s | manually collected using an athanor |
| 478s | tatara this allows small alliances and |
| 481s | corporations which are more aggressive |
| 483s | focused but do not have the manpower to |
| 485s | M moons the ability to still utilize |
| 487s | them for the groups that do have the |
| 490s | Manpower they can focus their attention |
| 492s | on the high value moons while the metox |
| 494s | takes care of the low value ones metano |
| 497s | Moon drills are vulnerable to attacks |
| 499s | only having a single short reinforcement |
| 501s | time if they are reinforced then any |
| 504s | materials inside them are trapped inside |
| 507s | allowing aggressors the opportunity to |
| 509s | provoke an engagement or loot the |
| 511s | resources for themselves if they manage |
| 514s | to destroy the structure successfully |
| 516s | aggressors will be able to deploy their |
| 518s | own metox in its place this new |
| 520s | technology Suite from upwell will make |
| 522s | where you are in the universe matter the |
| 524s | tech allows you to really specialize the |
| 526s | systems you call home and then move |
| 527s | workers around on your wi to make the |
| 530s | best use of the Equinox Suite you will |
| 531s | have to plan ahead and be aware of |
| 533s | possible attack vectors for example a |
| 535s | system might have a high power potential |
| 537s | but there aren't many Workforce sources |
| 539s | nearby and it could easily be cut off |
| 541s | would you rather that scenario or a |
| 543s | little Hub in a corner that won't be as |
| 544s | good but more easily defensible also |
| 547s | which systems will specialize in what |
| 548s | types of upgrades if you can't have them |
| 550s | all in one place how will you lay them |
| 552s | out Equinox will create opportunities |
| 554s | for raiding trade and betrayal high |
| 556s | level specialization of specific systems |
| 558s | for mining or ratting using metano Moon |
| 561s | drills to bait fights or on a massive |
| 563s | scale to make tons of isk players will |
| 565s | be able to tweak systems to appease |
| 566s | their needs like specifically mining |
| 568s | isogen I'm a sneaky worm holder type so |
| 572s | getting lucky attacking someone who got |
| 573s | a little too greedy with an unattended |
| 575s | metox or getting out of w space and |
| 577s | seeing a regent Skyhook ripe for a |
| 579s | little rating yeah that's that's what |
| 582s | I'm excited about there is so much I'm |
| 584s | looking forward to redefining what makes |
| 586s | a system valuable giving you exciting |
| 589s | new tools to transform your space the |
| 591s | way you want to and of course adding |
| 593s | more conflict drivers for groups of all |
| 595s | sizes we can't wait to see what you do |
| 598s | with them |
