My question has to do with electronic warfare. With inclusion of the "encrypted" core of the Drake Herald info runner and the ongoing development of seat actions on capital ships, are there any plans for an electronic warfare metagame beyond the signature based system you've spoken about in the past? What will be the role of "hacking"?asked by Locke Ravenford

So, yes, there is actually on a capital ship - on some of the bigger ones - we've actually discussed as part of the capital ship setup, having one of the stations being electronic warfare. Potentially trying to hack or invade the other person's ship. So we're actually actively looking at doing that, and we'll probably have some of that involved in info running and the Drake Herald stuff. And we're certainly going to have more brute force stuff like EMF and all that kinda stuff. So yes the question [answer?] would be, there will be more beyond the signature system, so look to the future when we have a much more detail info dump on the capital ships, which will be down the road but I think you guys will enjoy that.
