Stuff availability

[VictorLeeder]

Can anyone make a guide on what missions the various support ships, capital ships, turrets, and abilities become available/not available. If it varies, I would like the earliest possible timeline. I had it all worked out, but 2.2 seems to have changed a few things.

[three3pryme]

i dont think i can make an EXACT timeline but heres what i know
EVACUATION- plasma centuar, plasma gladiator, laser gladiator, NO cap ships. You cant use turrets in the mission anyway. Harvester availible
OVERLOAD- Plasma, laser, and flak turret availible, flak centuar Oremaster, NO cap ships.
WASTELAND- MG gladiaton MG centuar,Weldmaster, heal, and MG turrets availible, NO cap ships
STARPORT ONE-ALL gladiators and centuars, Cruis, ALL turrets
OFFENSIVE- Hydra
OUTER BORDER- Antimatter Cerberus, Cerberus.
FRAGMENTATION- Aegeon
LAST STAND- BEHEMOTH ( i think but i dont have behemoth YET)

Overall, it looks like three3pryme was pretty right. Just pulled this right out of the program code, level tells you starting from which mission you can use this item. Level 0 is "Training Day".

Interesting. I'll have to sift through this a bit and get my story timeline straight. One of the cooler things about writing a book on this game is portraying the sort of technological advancement as time passes we see in the campaign.

.

Don't forget though that some of the technology is there from the start, although it is made available to the player at a later stage (e.g. the Cerberus can be seen in Training Day).

Yeah I'll keep that in mind. I'm going have the plot begin with training day, to introduce the key elements.
