Couple of quick questions from a new guy

[tazuras]

1. If there is a storyline how is it implemented? is it just things to read in the news area or are there missions or just npcs beating each other up? I mean what can I as a player do to interact with the story and be part of it? Cause all i am doing is flying around taking bar missions currently.

The other stuff I will just have to read up on. But i cant find any info at all about the storyline...
Thanks!!

The storyline is implemented in game in the form of new hostilities, wars, bases, and npc paths. These are all fleshed out in the form of some new rumors, new base and planet descriptions, new faction descriptions and probably most importantly new base news items.

As for interacting with the storyline, that where roleplaying comes in. The only way to interact with it is to become a part of it. If you want to have an impact on a large scale (as in affecting the plot of the game) you need to propose that to the dev team or join the dev team. Being a faction leader helps too.
