New PP Weapons?

[Islata]

Hi there,


Are there new or improved weapons in PP?

What are they and who do you have to align with and what do you have to do to get them?


Thanks,

I

no one can get them until 4 weeks are over

Couldn't the Beta backers get the PP weapons a week early?

 

[Vasious]

it is only what 30 hours left to wait?
Assuming I carried the one....

Or an I one cycle too soon

 

[Calvert]

I thought it was at the conclusion of week 4, not the start. Hence eligible people can get then at start of cycle 5? Or am I wrong?

You have to be aligned for 4 weeks so stands to reason the end of the next cycle

Description says 4 weeks, doesn't it?

As the first cycle was 6 days instead of 7, I would expect the specials to be available 1 day after the change into cycle 5.

That would be pay to win so no... I'm a backer wouldn't be fair don't suggest it for our Elite :-D

In answer to the OP. Let me google that for you. "Powerplay weapons" first result

Seriously it exists, google isn't a dirty word... Oh wait for many it is, nevermind.


Anyway the information that isn't there:
None were tested during the beta so expect them to be unbalanced, possibly buggy and broken on release (my opinion). But since you don't know then I expect you probably haven't aligned to a power yet and won't get access for 4 weeks from when you do align.

Thanks for the info link.

You got me on the right track.

Really appreciate it.


Did I see somewhere that essentially PP means you would be limited to the one weapon that belongs to the faction you are aligned with? (unless you defect?)
