Legwork
« on: November 04, 2011, 05:34:21 am »
So we know that there will be the opportunity to conduct legwork before missions which will aid in completing the mission. Some things I would like to see with legwork are:

  • Able to contact multiple Contacts
  • The Contacts' background or archetype dictates how relevant the information they can give or if they have any information to give at all
  • Varying levels of information that can be gained
  • The chance for special events, encounters or items associated with the run to be unmasked or hints about them thrown in so that runners think to look for them
  • A chance for the legwork to offer up solo runs as well as solo and/or group runs to increase standing with a given Contact
  • Mundane, Matrix and Astral legwork options

I'd say we got you about 66% covered there :)
Yay for the Flaming Carrot

Very nice! 66% so 4 out of 6. I wonder which ones we have, muhahaha.

Still, that's great to hear!

Also, I hope there will be a way to garner more contacts after character creation. And ways for us to increase the loyalty ratings with each contact.
As a side note a good way to get a higher loyalty with a contact would be a run for that contact that in some way managed to raise that persons connection rating, thereby making them more powerful.
If you can't Dazzle them with STYLE, Riddle them with BULLETS.

They've already said no astral space or full matrix at release.  While I will sorely miss that, I hope they can do it after release and will support them until they can if the main game is done well.

Yeah, I know. Part of my response was a bit rhetorical. Blame it on my weird sense of humor. I just didn't convey it well in my post, hehe.
