[Suggestion] Universal Engineers

Bz9R5RKl.jpg

The lack of engineers in the Colony causing inconvenience to many inhabitants of this region for a very long time. And we have a suggestion that will fix it with the best way.


We propose to introduce a special “engineers representatives” in the Colonia and, in the future, other regions outside the Bubble, if such appear. These representatives are not full engineers and will provide modifications in accordance with the open levels of the main engineer from the Bubble.


This method will require that each player be required to access and visit the engineer in the Bubble, but also it will be able to use these modifications in the Colonia. Thus, players do not need every time to go back to the bubble for improve new ships, if the engineer is already fully open.

Hi,

It's an interesting idea, thanks for submitting the feedback.

I'd like to let you know that we are constantly looking at Colonia and have a list of the things that we feel need to be added, both through our own desires and feedback from players like yourselves.
Enginners in Colonia is on that list and is being discussed as to how we can best support them in that region of the galaxy.

At the moment we have no details to share or ETA on when/if this will happen but I wanted to let you know that we are listening and have plans for the Colonia region (That sounded less creepy in my head)

Thanks

It's probably a lot of work, but you could add a new (but smaller) set of Engineers to Colonia, with a whole new unlock route, which are Colonia specific.

To get the ball rolling, the first requirement to gain access the first new Engineers, is simply dock at Jacques Station.
And they would require some mined metals or something to unlock. Once repped up, you learn of more. And so on.

But it should all be independent from the bubble, completely.
It'd be extremely cruel to ask someone to haul 25 rare goods or something from the bubble to Colonia. :p

How about a set of Grade 6 engineers only found there who use the fact that Colonia is nearer the core for locally available materials. This will get quite a few people making the trip back and forth and give a real reason for people to go there at all.
 
Having some engineers out on the Colonia side would be nice. If nothing else, having some that do sensors and stuff, but are easy contacts would be good.
