So the seasons are about to begin and the point system sounds exciting to me. But I also have now the greatest concerns since the start of the game (and there have been many, rest assured, yet I was always optimistic). I might misunderstand it, though.
Since ONLY legendary planet owners get the blueprints, the Yamatos will only appear near those planets or somewhere where the owners of them have other planets. Maybe they sell them which increases the chances to pop up somewhere else - but the galaxy is large. This has one MEGA FLAW: There are no legendary planets in my sector and no forces from their owners anywhere near.
As far as I understand this, people in my sector will be entirely EXCLUDED from the entire season functionality, as neither building and holding nor hunting Yamatos will be an option. To hunt a Yamato I would have to fly very far, something that is no option as every player of the game knows. Deploying over long distances might be possible but attacking is not.
Again, I might miss something here and I am hoping I do. However, if I am right about this, then my motivation to continue playing is instantly falling into the bottomless pit. We have been waiting for this module pretty much since the day revenue share was announced. please tell me I am wrong. PLEASE!
I want to sell ships, too.
Perhaps we can work deals.
I have access to planets in all four quadrants.
Most at ship level 17.
Dm me in discord?
You have to crack some nuts, yeah.
We will adjust accordingly. This might be true for season 1 - I would not be so sure though as most likely the legendary owners will also try to keep their Yamatos in a not so busy region.
But there is many ways how we can react:
Speed increase
A new super fast ship
WORM holes
Space stations
A ship that can transport other ships faster than they can get there themselves?
It takes forever to send explorers anywhere.
Could also be an interesting solution.
