\par
Because of a lack of time, and a lack of interest in hardcore developing during the relatively small amount of free time I have for weeks on end, I have decided to move away from a completely new item set. It'll simply take too long.\par
\par
Instead, I will be modifying the existing set. I'm expecting quite a few people to be disappointed by this. My advise for them is to wait and see. The item set won't be built from the ground up, but will still have radical differences. Some items are going to go, be changed a great deal or be moved categories. \par
\par
Now, on to some more details so everyone can get a small impression of what I'll be doing:\par
\par
First of all I'll be introducing the "Chargeable" item type. Some of you may have used Interphase Gen., and noticed the bar at the top of the screen and its.. behavior. Chargeables will all work similarly. They'll likely be distributed over multiple categories, rather than one category as I had planned in the new item set.\par
\par
Second, all ships - including the Lancaster, will start off with \b zero \b0 turrets. Yes, that means you won't be able to attach and stay attached to even a Lancaster. However, there'll be a few items that change this and allow Lancasters, Spiders and Leviathans to have turrets. Of course, Lancasters will be allowed more turrets.\par
\par
On a related note, Point Defense will be changed. Instead of just one (or two, since Polaron) AI turret item(s), there will be a category of them \b that can be used alongside\b0  regular guns and bombs. However, these turrets will only be available to Lancasters, Spiders and Leviathans, and only if these ships have free turret slots (see above). They'll likely also take up two slots, rather than one, as a player would, and therefore a player turret will always be more powerful than a Lancaster with one or two "AI turrets" on it. Oh, and to those already thinking "OMG OP!", keep in mind that every single variable on these things can be changed. Just because they have similarities to PD, doesn't mean turrets \b have\b0  to be overpowered.\par
\par
Finally, there'll be quite a few changes to match these modifications to the item set and prevent them from upsetting balance + a number of "miscellaneous" changes for various reasons.\par

In this news post I'll introduce a new idea: the \ul item spotlight\ulnone . In the "item spotlight" I'll introduce an item that will (most likely) be in the upcoming item set. \par
This way, everyone can get a sneak peek, and I can keep myself motivated to keep churning out items.\par
Keep in mind that things can change drastically, so items announced here might not even be in the final version of the item set. Odds are they will be, though ;).\par
\par
In this first post I'll be introducing two items: the \i Pergium Reactor\i0  and the \i Quantum Reactor\i0 .\par
\par
\tab    [Pergium Reactor]   \par
Energy: \tab\tab  average-high\par
Recharge:\tab\tab  average-high\par
Weapon energy costs:  increased\par
\par
The Pergium Reactor sacrifices gun and bomb efficiency for above-average stats in energy and recharge. This reactor is best used with passive playstyles, on ships such as the Lancaster, or on ships that use repellers and bursts more often than guns and bombs.\par
\par
\tab    [Quantum Reactor]   \par
Energy: \tab\tab  low-average\par
Recharge:\tab\tab  low-average\par
Weapon energy costs:  decreased\par
\par
The Quantum Reactor is the exact opposite of the Pergium Reactor: it offers relatively low energy reserves and recharge rates, but decreases the energy required to fire bombs and bullets. Ships that fire large amounts of bullets or bombs will likely find this reactor very useful.\par
\par

This is mainly a change meant for the next item set, so I'll have to carefully watch if the current item compatibilities will work with these values.\par
\par
To offset this "buff", speed, thrust and rotation have been slightly reduced for Spiders and Leviathans. The Spider lost 1 point of thrust and approximately 400 speed. The Leviathan has lost a similar amount of speed, but no thrust. Both ships have 10 points less rotation.\par
\par
These changes have been made to make Spiders and Leviathans more effectively fulfill their role of "gun platform" and "bomb platform", respectively.\par
\par
Feedback would be appreciated, so if you have any (preferably constructive) criticism or other comments, please let me know.\par

Note that this is an "experimental fix" and may or may not stay. \par
\par
The reason is that it's quite obvious that, as lanc counts on a team go up, they simply become far more effective than a team with fewer lancs. It's practically impossible to kill off a team with a large number of lancs.\par
\par
Hopefully this will reduce the "spamming" of lancs on teams without too many side-effects.\par

It's brand new, so it's lacking articles, but we hope to change that soon enough. If you'd like to become an editor, simply create an account and request membership on the wiki. As long as you're willing to provide accurate and professional information, you'll be accepted.\par

However, in order to balance that it'd lose its main strength. Therefore, I decided to instead make it (one of) the highest damage-per-second (dps) gun(s) of the gun signatures, while losing its efficiency.\par
\par
For those who dislike this change, the item temporarily has a sale value equal to its buy value. This means people can also try it out 'for free'. Note that its stats are quite experimental - efficiency might go up, dps might go up, dps might go down.. all that stuff can happen. The sale value will be set lower when I expect no further changes.\par

Much like the whole "waiting for ?jackpot to grow" mentality, I'm hoping the ragequitting trend can be attributed to more misconceptions about how flag games actually work. So, here's a couple reasons you shouldn't ragequit, ever:\par
\par
- Once a team controls all of the flags, the reward is locked -- it cannot be reduced, only increased.\par
\par
- The losing team receives money and experience for the loss. Ragequitting prevents the quitter from receiving anything (something > nothing). Additionally, the losing team receives more experience than the winning team.\par
\par
Hopefully we can have a few more quality games, rather than the 20v5 blowouts we see when one team rages their way to spectator mode.\par

The jackpot is a nice bonus, but it's not the primary factor in the flag reward. Winning a 10v10 flag game, even with a jackpot of 0, will still net the winners a reward in the 15-30k range.\par
\par
That said, quitting after a large flag game because the jackpot is now zero is a silly idea.\par
\par
Also, this isn't even a new change -- It's been like this for years. Apparently some people, both on staff and otherwise, have been misinformed.\par
