If you’re going all out to become the black beard of space, sometimes you have to step out of the ordinary a bit to complete your journey from zero to hero. This is exactly what Small Impact Games is trying to promote with the new upcoming Marauders missions.
First introduced in the last closed beta, missions added more depth to the mining loot sniper, requiring players to use different weapons or loot a specific location. However, with the beta bringing over two million games in just five days, players quickly ran out of things to do, meaning they often got stuck in a loop and looted maps with no real mission. compensation. to concentrate.
However, Small Impact Games aims to tap lead developers James Rowbotham and Cameron Small when the game launches into early access in October, to tell The Loadout that there will be 40 missions for players to enjoy. In total, it will take about 80 hours.
“These linear searches actually serve two purposes,” says Small. “The first is to add extra tension to the game, and the second is to create competition. In some missions, we send you to one place at the same time. So if you have to buy three cookies, everyone is in the kitchen at the same time.
While the duo are hesitant about quest content, they say the fact that they’ve now added these quests to the game after an incredible beta proves the game has resonated with players.
“It shows we’re on the right track,” says Rowbotham. “It also shows that the basic cycle is stable. If they increase it to two million [games] they’ll likely hit 100 million in a month in such a short time – so we need to make sure we have a healthy competitor.
There will also be plenty of other Daily Missions for players to complete – but these, like the new Linear Missions, won’t be available until the game launches in Early Access next month.
