Will organizations within the Persistent Universe have more of a role or function in the daily running of the overall universe, or are they to remain just a shell or name for players to gather under?asked by Cyr Alpenwolf

So organizations, I mean, by nature, they're collections of players. And we've already said players can affect the universe, in little ways and sometimes in larger ways. As far as the organizations, you'll never be able to necessarily completely break the system.

Yeah, you're not going to be able to destabilize an entire system.
Rob IrvingDesigner
No, the simulation's going to be too big for that. But you'll have some impact on things like individual systems. Maybe you could blockade an economic portion just by controlling one system.
Eric PetersonHost
Maybe you become a monopoly on iron or something in a certain sector or something of that nature.
