Hey guys, in the new Lore-Post ("Far from Home"), Old Jegger reports about a weapon delivery for the local police forces. Now my question is: Will we be able to support local groups on planets (eg. police or maybe a syndicate) with weapons or other stuff to change their influence on the planet?asked by Kavehn

Whoa...

That is the hope. That is an absolute hope that some of the missions and some of the systems that'll be built in will be able to run supplies, whether that be food or...

Are you confirming this right now?

[Laughs]. Or guns or stuff like that to specific locations that might be in need or maybe specific groups at a location that can use it to their benefit. I know that's the long term goal is that you'll be able to kind of... as stuff comes on in like any economy we can see where stuff's going and how that may tip the scales of the balance slightly. How that exactly works down is way more of a design question, but I know us from a lore perspective are trying to make sure the landing zones are going to be populated with interesting NPC's that have perspectives, that have allegiances. Some which may be very apparent, some which may not be apparent, it could be pretty cool.

Oh... Are you talking about little twist, some twist action there?

Yeah like maybe you're hired to do a job, but realize what you're doing the job for, wasn't necessarily what you told it was for and it may go against the interests you were working for. I think being able to work stuff like this or thinking about that is something we're already starting to do and that from our end, starts by creating interesting planets where there is tension, where there is stuff going on that you can be apart of and then populating that with people, NPC's that you'll eventually meet and kind of lead you down a path one way or another. So, yeah, hopefully how you guys interact with the world will be helped dynamically change it in some way, shape or form.

Well I hope that works out because that sounds awesome.

It should be pretty fun.
