Sure, we buy the suits and whatever else we slap on it, but what about the actual flesh mesh inside? Why are they just thrown to us like nothing? Who's paying for it?
Are we just using Standard Combat Clone BPOs, or something? What if we could actually purchase different types of clones such as Combat Clones, Athletic Clones, Cheap-o Clones, etc?
Or, what if we were given a few freebie clones when we start out, and have to buy a clone Bay or something similar to keep supplying ourselves with fresh meat?
Sidenote: I wish we had the mission music from EvE for our respective races for battles. |

You guys brought up some rather interesting theories.
The one I'm having trouble wrapping my head around is the NPC corps buying the clones for us. It makes sense that the contracts allow us to use a limited amount of clones per battle, but would that limit is to a certain amount of clones per mercenary (150/16, etc) or is it a group contact made by the whole team? If so, why do matches allow mercenaries to pop in at random intervals if needed, without the update of said contracts?
What am I agreeing to, anyways? Where am I able to read said contracts? Damn you, politics!
Also, if clone costs come along with the suits, why are the BPOs made for free? Does it provide the clone for free as well? I doubt we'd be able to manufacture clones at our leisure, but I could be wrong. |

He didn't mean the NPC corp u default into, he meant the NPC corps at the top of each team when ingame, showing who has hired the team (in each pub match). In FW, it's Federal Marines, Republic Command, etc. In pubs, it's Tash Murkon, Duvolle Labs etc. They give you the contract and they supply the clones. It's only ever down to player owned corps when it's PC. I got that after a while, but that would still require at least SOME further explanations. |

I'd run around with a infrared crystal in my laser rifle, getting those guys who are always just outside 105m :(
And! It can add some diversity to gameplay...
Say you have room for 3 crystals, I'll bring a gamma crystal, an infrared crystal, and a radio wave crystal .
I'm going close range? Switch to my gamma crystal and support my team.
That guy is really far and my team needs the support? Switch to that radiowave and beam it up.
Normal range for me? Thanks infrared.
its original, no other shooter did that right? Everyone, like this post. Now. |
