With the Uprising 1.4 update, we are bringing you a new Outpost to fight in: The Gallente Research Facility. Straight from the brush of CCP LogicLoop and the rest of Team Knee 101, we have a brand new dev blog filled to the brim with images of this newest addition to the battlefields of New Eden.

Glad to see 3-null maps getting some love. Great job guys :D , is there a chance the 3-null map from e3 making a reappearance?

this is not a map but a socket so this goes inside maps.

oh, hopefully there will be a balanced 3-null Line Harvest map or the return of the Fetalis map

Any word on Craters?

3-null?

3 null cannons like Manus Peak.

Unlikely. All outposts so far are 2 or 3 objectives depending on the map. It is likely that most outposts will share this property. i would think that 3 objective maps would be the hardest to balance.

can we play this map in PC?

Minmatar Cargo Hub is next and the art department has already started on it. The Amarr Latrine is last and will be found in random corners of ambush maps only. I'd say the Minmatar have won this one.

Awesome job! The design looks nice, and I'm especially excited to here the gates will have guard-towers with connecting bridges.

Now it's time to build the
Amarr, Minmatar, and Gallente Orbital Artillery
Amarr, Minmatar, and Gallente Biomass
Amarr, Minmatar, and Caldari Communications
Amarr, Minmatar, and Caldari Research Lab
Amarr, Minmatar, and Gallente Production Facility
Amarr, Minmatar, Gallente, and Caldari Cargo Hub
Only 19 more, no pressure!

Incorrect. Caldari Production Facility is next, then Minmatar Cargo Hub. You are correct though that the art department has already started on it.

Seriously we both know its only really 5 more since nobody cares about the other races.

Get Wolfman in charge of that art department and we'd see Amarrian settings pumped out weekly.

And because I'm feeling nice, here's a better picture of inside the Suppy Depot in the main building.

Overall looks like an awesome map. The only concern I have is that the center square-ish area appears to be inaccessible from the ground which means it will be yet another place where people will use dropships to create a spawn hub. More whack-a-mole. The towers may also be exploitable, but it's hard to tell from the angles of them in the given images. (The multi-story plaza area on the left looks fun though)

Edit: If the plaza area is at the same height or higher, it might be fine though.

Variety is the spice of the life...and the only type of triage that will revitalize the game at this point. The new installations look great and should make for some decent gameplay. Keep them coming...only faster.

I don't mean to seem ungrateful, but there needs to be a sense of urgency when it comes to new map creation until we have a solid stable of about 20 distinct maps to play on. That means the dev team should be churning out a new map every month for the next year. Otherwise, we are going to be facing even more attrition through boredom. Team Knee 101 has to expedite things and that means if they need more help, CCP should be hiring more people to keep the ball rolling.

Maps and modes, maps and modes, maps and modes...it can not be stressed enough.

You have shown progress in infantry mechanics and we should soon see revamped vehicle mechanics. Great!

Other resources should be working on the other variety aspects of new dropsuits/weapons/equipment. Get on it!!

Everything else should be focused on new maps and new game modes to compliment them. It has to happen. It has too. Forget improved integration with EVE right now. You already put the cart before the horse once and look where it got us. Grandiose ideas that look great on paper but function poorly when the basics, the fundamentals are not locked down first. Solid mechanics and significant variety are those fundamentals.

These are the things that will have players logging on and sticking around. Once you have that, then you can worry about the full New Eden experience. Maps and modes, maps and modes, maps and modes.

What are you standing around for? Get to work!

I'm convinced this map was made with scouts in mind, seriously that beautiful map is scout heaven we will dominate here there's just so much going for us with this layout and with the scanning changes coming we will be ghost on the battlefield.

RISE MY SCOUT BROTHERS AND GIVE THESE MEDIUM SUITS HELL

Team knee 101 haha, does this have anything to do with arrows, I wonder.

CCP LogicLoop remains the gold standard for dev blogs written by the DUST team.
