Really cool or evil?


Taken from the latest Dev Interview:

Are you able to fly and drive vehicles without certification in the VR training area?

The VR Training areas are set up to specifically allow you to shoot weapons, drive vehicles, and experiment with equipment without having to have the required certification. You don't need the cert until you actually exit the VR Training areas. After that, you have to earn them to use them.

That has to be the coolest thing, and IMHO the cruelest thing the devs have done... give us the chance to play with all the toys.. then we have to wait to use em where it counts.. man, thats almost evil in its design!

I think they should go farther and let you test out the equipment from other empires too.

hm.. i dunno - letting you choose any weapon in the game would be a nice bonus. but i dunno im sort of nervous about the stat system. it makes me feel like there's a ladder system much like in warcraft3 or somethign like that. i dislike having people see how good i am by looking at numbers especially when im first starting out.

Yeah, heh. Warcraft 3's system was stupid. I hate letting people see my stats like that. But I don't think they're doing anything like that in PS.

The highest you can get in VR is battle rank 5

People worry way too much about levelling in this game. I really don't think it is going to matter so much how many certs someone has when it comes down to it. The more certs that the more people have, the more fun the game will be.

As far as testing all the factions in the sim before you go very far with your character will save a lot of people a lot of time and grief from selecting the wrong empire for their preferences.
