Content Update
We've gotten a few new content developers recently, and here is a list of some of the things we are currently working on:
3 new zones, one is to get tech 21 skills that will be opened during the next universe
Crates of tweaks added to the DG loot drop tables
Improvement to the survivability of Forcefield, Bubble, and support drones.
Normalize radiation resistance on all drones so that it's in line with other resistances
Improvements on the resistances of ruin, mission, and BP built drones.
New Paxian Battlefrigate cap ship being added
Adding an alternate way to get tractoring through level 16, adding ways to get tractoring through level 20.
Adding Tweak Factories for Engineers
Adding a new race course for Micron
Going to increase the basic range on tractors, but eliminate range bonuses from augs and skills.
Increase the power of items that are built-in to ships
Nerf the built-in laser on basils
Completely change what Juxes are and do.
Adding a set of mines for Seers (basically stealthy drones with warheads and debuffs.)
Adding tech 21 augs
Replacing the Wingship's in Liberty with a new type of ship that you can cap, but can't sell to AI bases.
All the above tasks are assigned and being worked on. Can't promise any particular ETA's, since all content devs are volunteers. =)

Wait, so what about engineers? will their tractors no longer be so much better than other people's tractors? if they will still get the strength bonus, but lose the range bonus, they should get something else to compensate. (like a density bonus or something)

Re: Content Update
Going to increase the basic range on tractors, but eliminate range bonuses from augs and skills. This is going to be very interesting. I would rather have a different solution to this, but...i guess if you feel it's necessary, you should roll with that. Dont remove the tractoring subskills though, if its not absolutely necessary.Nerf the built-in laser on basils Ugh, Finally.Completely change what Juxes are and do. Meh, another nerf to snipers...I like juxes

Re: Content Update
Changes you are putting for DM in will not change that we use that class just to store gear *now that we can not use it anymore for tractor ships .
