Beacon Missions have been an integral part of gameplay for many EU participants. Unfortunately they disappeared with VU10. The upcoming and highly anticipated instances system will bring back beacon missions and hopefully add many more interesting variants of instance gameplay. Today MindArk released a preview video for beacon missions. Enjoy! > Wiki Page: Beacon Missions Let me just quickly abuse my permission to post on the frontpage for personal gain: If you plan to do a beacon and lack team mates call me. I'll be there in 1 minute. I'll even abandon wiki for it. ;) .
I'll try and find you in game so I can add you to FL. Brainstormers will be running beacons 24/7 (well maybe not, but if we get one it would be nice to have you along.)
Looks like weather effects in some shots. I don't think we're going to be deploying to a spacecraft any more. Colonial Viper launch tube @ 0:29 in!
Well their videos are getting better at least. Never been on a beacon mission myself. so it might be fun to do some times.
