hi guys,

After looking at cohwiki, I came across this:

Quote:
new Exploration Badges have been added to city zones, almost doubling the number of exploration badges.
Now my question is, how will this affect SG teleporters? will we need to collect all the new badges as well for TP's now? It already takes long enough to collect nevermind doubling it.

Anyone with that information cannot speak about it.

Based on past experience of multiple zones that had badges added: yes.
Any SG that already has the beacon won't lose it, but any SG that does not yet have it will have to get all the badges. That's my prediction based on RWZ and Faultline.

I'm sure that there are people around that can say with certainty one way or another, however the beta is still closed.

So something that takes like 5-10 minutes to do might take 10-20? Big deal.

Even assuming the new badges will have to be earned to unlock new SG teleporters I would hardly characterize it as a huge new burden that "takes long enough nevermind doubling it". If it typically took like an hour per explore badge I could sympathize with you. But since it doesn't I won't. *shrugs*

I can get behind this statement, with the proviso that the only explore badge so far with extra-ordinary requirements is Unabashed (badge in the Rikti Mothership). As long as the new explore badges avoids the need to organize a raid, things should be fine.

That would be a pain.

Getting it wouldn't be a pain, but trying to leave alive might be. haha

Reminds me of when the Abyss came online redside. I go into it to check it out, no one is in the zone but me and Hamidon was spawned. I maneuvered above Hamidon to the coordinates of the badge and shut off my flight power.

BANZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIII!

Got the badge and a trip to the hospital

And Hamidon now moves around the zone when he spawns, so you need to be quick. Since the badge is usually on his top, hover or super-jump will also be handy...
