Deployment is meaningful, strategic, tactical and immersive.
This screen is an early exploration of Deploying down to a map.
We were investigating a few things here. Risk and Reward being one of them. As a team we were thinking about Hi, Low and Null Sec spaces and looking at varying difficulty levels within a map. The more difficult the area is to deploy to the higher the rewards are.
We were also investigating telling you where your friends are. Should you deploy close to them if they are in Hi Sec and go and help them out or maybe you have other things you want/need to do for your own progression.
This screen also shows the potential for giving you other kinds of information. Equipping yourself for the challenge ahead is important, especially where we introduce some danger elements in the map in terms of natural and synthetic weather. We tell you the situation that you are about to enter so you can equip accordingly.
This is the future for Vanguard – meaningful, strategic and tactical decisions you can make before dropping onto a surface.
