New Additions Planet Cyrene This VU ushers in the precursor to Hard Launch. The former lands of Cyrene have been removed for the time being and all players will be relocated to a new area. All the current Cyrene missions are still possible to do on this new area, only the mission NPCs are in a new location, with the majority of them being located in the new A.R.C. Staging Area. This also applies to creature and mining spawns, they can all still be located on the new area. This new area (which will be referred to as the Relocation area) is located in the southwest quadrant and features some new geography that has not been seen before as well as some familiar locations: - The Inverted Zyn Pyramid - The Scientific Order of Cyrene and the floating Sky Labs. - The Ice Plateu, home to Ice Crystal Golems and Zyn'nix. This server will have a progression map for our Dynamic Upgrade System which will show not only what the dynamic unlocks are but also how far along the progression is. The progression will be updated every few weeks. There are also many new teleporters to find: - A.R.C. Immigration - Tanhok - A.R.C.

III is difficult to maneuver, this is being looked into. - The Spear destroyed model becomes invisible, this issue is being looked into. - All Cyrene vehicles (P.I.G.V., Spear, Lancer, Dragonfly) have default sounds, this will be addressed in a future patch. - Some Quality Ratings information in blueprint book: A.R.C. is incorrect, and this issue is still being looked into. *This thread will be updated with new information as it arrives* Source
