Is the story team adding more datapads or computer terminals to sprinkle lore through the 'verse?asked by Renprint

TL;DRThey hope to add datapads more frequently and improve how they're read, and eventually bring old dispatches into the game, but give no timing; Kid Crimson's return is left unanswered.

It's something we've been in discussion with for kind of the loot generation system and our ability to kind of include those items with set dressing and have a wide variety of them. It's something that we hope to have coming in greater frequency soon. And we want to improve the interactions with the datapads. Like the recent Siege event, we had those fun datapads that you could find on the lieutenants, which hopefully some of you got to read, because I enjoyed those. But we definitely highlighted some of the current shortcomings with interacting with them, with our inner thought system, so we're looking at improving that and how the messages are delivered. Right now, they're all going into the journal part of the mobiGlas. And so that's kind of an ongoing discussion too. So hopefully there'll be changes and improvements. But yes, we want more. And we also want to go through a backlog and start introducing all the old dispatches into the game as well at some point, so that all the stuff you've been able to read on the site, you'd actually be able to find sprinkled throughout the universe as well.

The Adventures of Kid Crimson, here we come. When are you going to bring Kid Crimson back?

I think that might be a secret. Well, not a complete secret, but he is beloved and not forgotten, let's say.
