Planetary Interaction inside W-space.


by Merinid Dormer

What Tyrannis is going to be bringing into the equation…

News have come to our ears about the new expansion that will introduce planetary interaction to the world of New Eden, and of course for us wormhole colonists one question came to mind. “Will we be able to use that feature, or will we be forgotten like we were in Dominion?”

The answer was given by Torfi Frans Ólafsson a Senior Producer at CCP through an interview he gave on Tentonhammer.com and we found out through Ninveah.com by Kirith Kodachi. As he stated “..there are over 65,000 planets in the game. And you can interact with each and every one of them. Including those that are in wormhole space, which can actually be quite challenging”…

Planetary interaction is out to set deeper foundation for the future as it seems. What is going to be built on plants for the months to come is actually the board on which Dust 514 is set to be played. Structures, buildings and upgrades that EVE corporations will be setting up are what the mercenaries of Dust 514 will be seeing when landing on a planet.

Although things are still a little vague on how this is going to happen, what skills are going to be needed and so on, we are hoping that this is going to be massive and will add new features inside w-space. After all that “quite challenging” phrasing was promising. All that remains is to see it in action on SiSi.

Stay tuned for more.

    Very curious now to see what planetary interaction will encompass.
