VEGA CONFLICT IS UNDERGOING DOWNTIME
THURSDAY, AUGUST 5TH @ 10AM PDT (EST. 1 HRS)
Rebels,
Get ready for an exciting release! In the weeks leading up to this release, a semi-public PvP playtest was held and over 200 rebels gave us a massive amount of feedback on the current state of Fleet vs Base (FvB) combat. We listened, and in this release, not only does the Capitol Carrier arrive alongside three Field Generators and three Squadrons- there are also FvB improvements that are based entirely on community feedback. No FvB update would be complete without new base equipment though. Look out for Borophene Plates and Fission Missile Turrets.
