    While I've spent a lot of time on Arkadia since it opened, I feel a little sad about it. The planet is beautiful and there is massive amounts of areas for mining where not a single animal is around, and considering the massive animals in herds other places, that's good or I couldn't mine there.

    But the storyline mentioned shortages, fire-bases being overrun, military patrols, even if only close to the bases for scouting. Bombing Oran groups caught out in the open, and other things. Once we got there, the auction was open for business, galaxy wide....there were no shortages except for new Arkadia minerals and enmatters but they aren't needed until blueprints come out in mass.

    So, the great storyline we all got excited about ended with a whimper, as we stepped off the bus or tp, lol, into a beautiful unspoiled planet we thought was at war, but without seeing a single fire on the horizon from fighting, hearing any shooting or bombing in the distance or seeing any organized military patrols, possibly stopping to warn you to be careful when they pass. I know you just got started so maybe this is something to think about adding down the road, or the storyline was nothing but a good story.:shrug:

    My guess is that we'll connect more with the storyline after the missions appear, tying up our actions with the story.

    I do have to admit though that i did find the planet a bit sanitized, with the huge oratan threat having somehow been transformed to a few groups that you need to do your best to find, instead of being close to the firebases as i had pictured them.

    Then again, after things get into rythm we might get Oratan attack events. Now that would be something :)

    I'm working on something like that right now.

    Stay tuned. :)

    I think it's just the calm before another storm. Just relax and enjoy. More hard times will come I'm sure :p

    Well good to see there's hope for a more war like planet someday. It'll be harder for us miners, but we came here knowing that up front. New things like patrols to watch out for, or being able to use our aircraft for bombing runs would be nice, and having the Oratan able to shoot back at aircraft makes their replacement come a lot faster and help manufacturers sell more, along with the weapons on them.:surrender:

    Just did a flight to help make a map, if they could have shot at me, my ship would be a lot worse off right now, I was barely clearing some trees..hehe.
