Systems and Functions

· Bounty System

·         Through the Bounty system, players can place a pre-paid bounty on the head of another player.

·         When a bounty is placed on a player's head, they will automatically enter the wanted list and a special marker will be visible on their ship when traveling in space.

·         Players can purchase approximate location tracking services in the bounty interface to find their selected target, which will remain effective for 48 hours.

·         When a targeted player's ship is destroyed, the final bounty will be sent to the killer according to the actual battle results.

·         Once the bounty has been settled, the targeted player will automatically exit the wanted status.

·         Placing a bounty on a player will not make them a criminal, and they will not become legally attackable by other players.

·         If you kill a targeted player who is in your Corporation or Alliance, you will not get any rewards.

 

· Threat Analysis System

·         Players can use the Threat Analysis system to view their own basic stats, or the stats of other players.

·         This system allows you to view a player’s total Shot Down count, total Damage Value, Killstreaks, and Shot Down Ratio.

·         It will also display a players’ total achievements and let you see how many Brilliant, Outstanding, Remarkable, and Extraordinary achievements they have.

·         A player’s total bounty and current bounty amount generated through the bounty system will also be visible.

·         You'll also be able to see the total upgrade score of each player, their Corporation rating, and their Alliance rating.

·         You'll be able to see their 5 most frequently used ships and usage ratios.

·         And up to three Honorary Tags selected by the player will be displayed.

 

· Achievement System

·         Players can now complete achievements and get rewards by completing specified game content.

·         Achievements are divided into the following categories, from easiest to most difficult: Brilliant, Outstanding, Remarkable, and Extraordinary.

·         Achievements will also be divided into the following categories: Pilot Training, Discovery, Recruits, Quests, Combat, Other, and Hour of Glory.

·         By completing achievements, you can get Credits, Gala, and titles as rewards.

·         Some achievements will be given only to the first player to complete them, and rewards will be given to everyone on the server in this player's name.

·         When version 1.6 goes live, you'll notice that some achievements will already have been completed retroactively when you log in for the first time after the update, and you'll be able to receive the corresponding rewards, but most achievements will need to be completed after the update.

 

· Title System

·         Players will be able to complete certain achievements to earn Honorary Tags and corresponding titles.

·         Players can choose to display these title, which will be visible as a prefix in front of their player ID after being equipped.

·         Players are free to choose up to three Honorary Tags to show in the Threat Analysis Display.

 

· Real-Time Voice Chat System

·         Real-time voice chat will be added to the game, and will first be built into the team channel for preliminary testing.

·         Tap the “Claim All" button to change all unread emails to read while collecting all attachments.

 

· Recruit System

·         The remaining energy levels of recruits will be displayed in real-time when in space.

·         Recruits will only use the ranged interference devices on targets currently locked onto by the player.

·         When players enter the warp status and leave the zone, recruits who do not leave the zone will cease their fire immediately.

·         When recruits are commanded to attack other players in low security space, the commanding player will be flagged as having committed a crime.

 

· Warehouse System

·         Items that can be opened directly and items that need to be decrypted before opening will be separated in your personal warehouse.

·         The Encrypted Case category will only show item boxes that need to be decrypted to open.

·         The Misc. category will only show item boxes that can be opened directly.

·         More tags will be added to the encounter interface to identify mission enemy groups.

 

· Returnee Event

·         A new Returnee event will be launched. Returning players can complete event challenges to obtain huge amounts of rewards.

·         Returnees are players who have not logged in to the game for more than 15 consecutive days and whose level is greater than or equal to Lv. 25.

·         Active players will be able to invite players to return to the game, and can bind their account with 1 returning player.

·         When returning players complete event challenges, the players they're bound to will also receive a large number of rewards.

· Corp Purchases

·         Corp Purchase postings will be moved from the Corp Purchase function to the Trading Post.

·         Corporations will be able to set their own purchase prices, but they cannot be more than or less than 50% of the recommended price of that day.

·         In order to ensure the reliability of the trading post, Corporations will be required to pay in advance when issuing purchase orders in the future.

·         Corporations can issue purchase orders for T3 ships and items.

·         When version 1.6 goes live, old Corp Purchase orders will automatically be removed.

 

· Trading Post

·         A Corp Purchase page will be added to the trading post to display the entire server's Corp Purchase orders.

·         The trading post will automatically match sales and purchase orders at random intervals of less than 60 minutes.

·         The trading post will match sales and purchase orders to satisfy purchase orders to the maximum extent and ensure that Corporations can buy goods at a price lower than the set price.

·         Players will be able to see the sales information and purchase information of selected items in the sales page of the trading post and the Corp Purchase page at the same time.

·         The items players put on sale in the trading post will still appear on the sales list as before, and can be purchased by other players before the next matching interval.

 

· Sovereignty

·         War Reports will give priority to Alliance relationships when automatically dividing participating Corporations into attacking and defending parties.

 

· Corporation Facilities

·         Watchtowers will automatically exclude friendly units of the same Alliance, and only display the location information of non-friendly players.
