Hello, Pilots!

One of the other 🍉 [MELN] Leaders, @proto26, will be starting a new weekly EXODE series. More details next week once it is actually up and running.

  1. The new 'FIREWORKS' card has been added to Rekatron contracts. It is very powerful and definitely has the potential to destroy part of your planet if used irresponsibly. I am very excited to get one of these. If you want a more detailed analysis, you can find one here.
  2. Contracts will get a Quality-of-Life update in the future, which will trace back every unclaimed drop from every player and create an "unclaimed drops pool". Every time you open a contract from then on, you will get the [X] amount of cards +1 card from your unclaimed drops pool if it isn't empty. That way, you will still eventually get the cards that you are entitled to without needing to go through any fancy process. I am unsure whether or not I have any unclaimed drops as I bought all of my EXODE stuff from someone.
  3. The Syndicate and Tom Settlers contracts will have their new cards added into them on January 23rd and January 25th respectively.
  4. EXODE is hiring new employees on the art team in preparation for Beta, and may bring on Interns to create more professional looking presentations.
  5. You can now settle "Evacuation Passengers", which are the passengers you rescued from the station during evac rather than the ones you pre-loaded onto your ship. Have fun discovering who your new citizens are!
  6. The first GNN script has been written, and production has begun. Will link to it when it is finished.
  7. Two artists are becoming permanent members of the team, I am very excited to see how they blend with EXODE's current art style! @elindos is still on the hunt for a front-end developer.

🎁Giveaway:

This week, you have a chance of winning:

1x Ayumi
Ayumi is probably the most liked card in all of EXODE. When I asked people what their favorite card was in the very first 🍉 [MELN] Giveaway, she was by-far the most picked. Not even for her stats, either, just the amazing art on her card. While the art is great, where she really shines is her stats and bound cards. Ayumi is a nigh must-pick in any Syndicate deck. You can only have one of her because of the 'Veteran' keyword, but with her skills and bound sword she is a one-woman killing machine. Swords do not run out of ammunition, after all. I think she should have some bound armor as well, because look at her, however she does not at this time. Maybe @elindos is too afraid that will make her overpowered. She does have a bad trait, 'Narchophile', which is EXODE's nicer way of saying "Drug Addict", although we have yet to see how this will affect gameplay. I am looking forward to seeing how she pairs with the new Syndicate Geisha. We will have to wait until she is released, though.

Honestly as i log in first time into game the tutorial seems really complicated even if i followed it i had hard time to succeed in mission because all my heroes died or missed or disappeared. Maybe it was my fault for missing some crucial informations but i was trying to be as focused as i could. Maybe some step by step tutorial that you can watch outside real time battle would be handfull. I would also want to see plans for developing colonization and planet more. There is really ton information to cover and i would love to have them all at once but those i mentioned get more of my attention since i need to learn how to do escape mission efficiently.

You are not the first to mention this!

I could definitely see something like this being made.

!PIZZA

Mmmm maybe a tutorial and explination of all the things that you can do right now xD

That is a good suggestion.

!PIZZA

Oh, wow! And a big thank you! Also nice you liked my idea :)

What I would like to see? -Perhaps the new series by @proto26 could be/include some kind of weekly short interview with @elindos . I mean Elindos is posting a lot of news nearly on a daily basis in Discord, how about getting a second perspective/direct feedback by partnering with an interviewer?

Very cool suggestion, would depend on their availabilities and if they are interested or not.

It would be fun to have a 🍉 [MELN] interview.

Thanks for the new cards.
Reblogged.

I would like to see some things on game mechanics from @proto26 new series.

Of course, enjoy!

The first post is likely going to be a guide of some sort.

Comment what you would like to see out of @proto26's new EXODE series:

BETA!

Fair enough, lol.

I am very excited for Beta as well.

!PIZZA

I would like a new interesting card! But, you still need to understand that the new player needs to detail the features of the gameplay!

I started to play, but i also think, that it is very confusing and would like to see some starting help.
Well i will get into.
Thanks for the giveaway / voted & reblogged

So happy to see the team is growing. Elindos should take it easy sometimes haha. Since we're having two new permanent artists, id like @proto26 to feature them and their styles so we would have an idea what we would see in the future artstyle of eXode. i always find eXode to be unique and happy to be an acquaintance of one of your artists who made Ayumi. So excited for a new eXode and for the beta!
