Technology Research

Post by CorruptUser »

I understand that Teleportation is going to be unlocked through research, but my question is will anything else be researchable?

For example
bigger/better modules for our factories
More advanced ships or variants of existing ships
Better software for our ships

Also, if teleportation is unlocked, can we get some sort of module on our player HQ that can upload all the software to all of our ships? I always found it odd in X3AP that you had to send every ship to a shipyard/equipment dock to upgrade the software and pay a fortune when, you know, it's software. Maybe there's really good DRM in the future?
I must defend my honor!

No, research as currently planned is being limited to the teleporter as far as we know. Nothing awesome like you and others have proposed.

Big grammar error then in the trailer.

The OP specifically asked about:

bigger/better modules for our factories
More advanced ships or variants of existing ships
Better software for our ships

None of which was mentioned in the trailer. It did mention getting unique blueprints and technologies.

I guess I missed this part "I understand that Teleportation is going to be unlocked through research, but my question is will anything else be researchable?" outside some random examples the OP offered.
