New Stuff Coming to Dark Legends

**Samhayne** · 05-23-2012, 04:01 PM

If you haven't read the introduction of Carapace, the Lead Designer for new Dark Legends content, check that out at: http://www.spacetimestudios.com/show...k-Legends-Lead!

In that thread, Carapace outlines some of the new stuff coming to Dark Legends and I wanted to create a separate thread to highlight that info.

Level cap increase over 2 new Campaigns (26 elite level cap)
Changes coming to the map and energy systems
3D Missions will be free to play infinetly
New Contact System that allows the user to select how long it takes to complete actions (with scaling rewards)
Minion System with rewards for playing consecutive days
New Goal system to revamp the tutorial and give direction for "what to do next" in the game

The cool thing about Spacetime Games is that we share tech across all games. So, for those that like Pocket Legends or Star Legends, you might see the Minion System or Goal System, for example, put to use in the future in those titles.

Also, if you're looking for "what is coming" to Pocket Legends or Star Legends, check out their Lead Designer introductions as well:

Star Legends Lead Designer intro - Gibber

All of the above goodies in the bullet list above are waiting on a new client, which means a submission process to Apple. We haven't submitted yet to Apple, but that could happen soon (depending on how many issues crop up in pre-submission testing). So, to give a rough timeline, probably 3-4 weeks (or maybe a little sooner) to see these goodies in the live game. Of course, that could all change during the Apple submission process, so no guarantees.

Also - be sure to tune in tomorrow for the Live Hangout on Google+ with Cinco Barnes to talk about Dark Legends. It will be an awesome show and I'm sure there will be more details revealed about what is coming - details at http://www.spacetimestudios.com/show...e-live-Hangout!

Thanks for playing Dark Legends and for your support!

Wow, thats an extensive list...lookin snazzy

Question: Changes coming to the map and energy systems..

so what do we need to do...will there be more energy that will exceed 25?
will there be a warning (so no banking to non-forum members)?
will we still be able to get free buffs?

**Alolucard** · 05-23-2012, 07:24 PM

Even though I'm EXTREMELY excited for the new update and it sounds really great... I'd rather have notifications fixed on iOS versions.. :\ They 100% do not work like they're supposed to..

Energy will not exceed 25, and will still be used for the "Contacts" system. 3D and PvP content will be free and not require energy, so as your energy refills from doing the missions, vampire district, and pvp you can send your contacts to do more things on the side for you.

Again the important part of the conteact system is the choice you guys get to make when you start a contact action. You can get sometign quick, or hold out for longer periods of time to yield the big rewards! It's up to you and your playstyle.

We also will not be gating campaign progression with a hard timer for actions. You will be free to carry on to the next campaign of content... but the minimum recommended level will increment campaign to campaign. Once this happens you can brave the tough environment or go back to earlier campaigns to level up more before proceeding.

You likely won't see many level 11's running around Marshwood for example
