there is a story, but the story depends on what you do in the game, and the choices you make.
that is why there is no story right now, until you make this decision:
which class do you choose:
Human
Alien
Independent
Robot
now all of these will be explained here:
Human - As a human, you will be a part of the alliance of worlds controlled by the humans, and their allies. you will be of the human species.
---Pros and cons of joining: Pros: -In an alliance, so people can help you out. -Outposts in secured systems so that if you die, search and rescue will recover you and send you to the nearest outpost or base. -Can join squads, with other players, and with players made by me. -Receive regular amount of starting resources, no more, no less. Cons: -Have a shoot-on-sight enemy, which are the aliens. -Start off with a small, old, and rusty ship
Alien - As an alien, you will be part of the alliance of worlds that have joined the Alien alliance treaty and all the worlds controlled by the aliens.
---Pros and Cons of joining: Pros: -In an alliance, so people can help you out. -Outposts in secured systems so that if you die, search and rescue will recover you and send you to the nearest outpost or base. -Can join squads, with other players, and with players made by me. -Receive regular amount of starting resources, no more, no less. Cons: -Have a soot-on-sight enemy, which are the humans -Start off with a small, old, battered ship.
Independent - As an independent, you will have to choose what species you will be (Human or alien), and you will be ON YOUR OWN.
---Pros and cons of joining: Pros: -Get a lot more starting resources than other classes. -Start with a relatively repaired ship, none of that old rusty and battered stuff. -No shoot-on-sight enemies to start with, so most people are neutral -Can start a wing, as long as there are enough people to start it. -Can found an alliance, as long as it has 2 worlds under it. -You have your own home world! Cons: -Not in an alliance from the start, so danger of getting shot at is higher than if you were in an alliance. -No outposts from the start, so search and rescue revive you at your home world, or at an alliance member's home world.
Robot - As a robot, you will be under the alliance of worlds that the Robots control. You will be a Robot.
---Pros and cons of joining: Pros: -Are in an alliance, so you can be helped out. -Can join squads, with other players, and with players made by me. -Receive slightly more than the regular amount of starting resources. -with the right programming and engineering, robots can do almost anything. -are way more resistant to damage than other classes.(better armor on ship) Cons: -No outposts from the start, so search and rescue revive you at your home world, or at any other world of the alliances control.
Ship classes: ship classes are the names of the ships, and their upgrades. for example:
Viper MK 1 is the starting ship for a human campaign, but repaired.
Viper MK 1.5 is the upgraded version.
Squads
What's a squad?
a squad is a smaller version of an alliance, in which a group of ships would work together to demolish a bigger ship, or do something together.
how do you form a squad?
just say so. one at a time, please. you can only be in one squad at a time.
you can invite other players to join, too.
Squad ranks: (highest on the top) ***general leader admin member
What's the difference?
the higher, the more privileged.
