Delta Rising question

andrewawestandrewawest Member Posts: 9 Arc User
I'm sure this might be laughable to the veterans of this game, but:

Does Delta Rising come with new missions, or is it just a bundle of ships, etc?


I'm sure this is old news to you guys, but I'd really like to know before I cough up the money.

    The expansion's free, the bundle's mainly just a collection of the Z-Store ships that were released with it.

    What you pay for is just the ships and other knick-knacks listed. The expansion itself is entirely free and fully integrated into the game, so if you've got the game downloaded, you've got Delta Rising.

    Yup. Also, to answer the question, DR comes with a good amount of new story missions, a new quadrant, and a few new queues.
    SCM - Crystal C. (S) - [00:12] DMG(DPS) - @jarvisandalfred: 8.63M(713.16K) - Fed Sci

    SCM - Hive (S) - [02:31] DMG(DPS) - @jarvisandalfred: 30.62M(204.66K) - Fed Sci

    Tacs are overrated.

    The one thing i do like about this game is when content is released it is free, the extra bells and while like ships and such aren't necessary the mission and such is free and can be played with the free stuff in game. No need to spend any money unless you want to.

    The paid content is a pack of ships, doffs, intel doffs, and talaxian outfits. I may have missed an item or two so check the pack information to be certain of the contents.

    The Delta Quadrant is two additional sectors of space that have been added to the game and accessible to all. There are some very good story missions in the story arc but they are broken up by patrol content that must be completed to advance to the next story mission. The content is further segregated with level requirements. Had one option or the other been chosen it wouldn't have bothered me as much. The requirement to d four often 5 patrols in a row felt monotonous and didn't add anything positive to progression of the story for me.

    Some people can't resist maxing out their spec points. They say they hate the grind of the patrols but they love them because they can't stop doing them.

    there are a small number of missions, about 10% of what was needed to level from 50-60 so you have to find something to repeat for xp.

    Its all free. There is nothing to buy, just fly to the new area and bravely kill new things where no one has killed before!
