Greetings to all, i would like to discuss the potential expansion of the hacking mechanic and mini game, as we all know data sites have become less than desirable and I would like to suggest an injection that would increase their value to the game.
Ghost site maps!
the idea is a simple one that for every 15 level 1-2 data sites and 10 level 3+ a partial map drops that can be used to determine the location of a level 5 ghost site, 3 maps would be needed to start an additional hacking mini game to decrypt the location of ghost site.
3 maps are required to plot a course that is locatable on the map, corresponding to X,Y,Z axis the location type of ghost site is depending on where the hacking has taken plan, in K space locations would lead to a HS ghost site, in J space locations would be located in a NS or LS ghost site location.
the maps as they drop would correlate to the faction of space your in or random pirate drops “a portion of the angel cartels database reveals the potential location of a high security ghost site.”
maps can be purchased to be combined, maps cannot be mixed with different factions and with an additional risk of failing the mini game that is prompted would pose and increased risk and reward.
this would provide a boost to the in game economy, provide a influx of new content into one of the best aspects of the game and create the desire to venture into all the areas of space NS LS, HS, K and J space for potential high risk, high reward.
thank you for all of your time reading a potential idea, i would love to hear from a DEV or from the community.
