Contacts

Has there been any mention of having more missions in the same zone given by a contact? I have heard this mentioned in the forums, but never saw if anything sort of came from it. I had some that were sending me to Boomtown, Perez Park and Faultline constantly. I don't have a problem with that per se, maybe just cut it down a bit. Also while they are at it, cut back on the defeat X number of opponents, they can be silly at times. Lastly, cell phones after first mission, or first contact even, that is a pain going back to the zone for the contact.

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. They have said that the number of missions we can hold at once is increasing from 3 to (I think) 7.

Going forward, the devs seem dedicated to not sending us all over the place and to getting a cell phone sooner than later (even when I argued that the Cimeroran contacts shouldn't have any phones, that was overruled!).

The devs don't like to prioritize going back and changing legacy missions if there's nothing really broken about them, even though they may be annoying. And that's because they'd rather spend their time making new content and fixing actual bugs. However, they have gone back and fixed a few things (like the Hollows) and you can be sure that anything new, or anything revisited for whatever reason will have less running around and quicker-to-use cell phonage.

Clearly they were given cell phones by Future Guy.

Play redside more. There are many less defeat X and run all over the place missions.

How do we know which contacts are "new", and offer newer content? What issues were did htey come out in? Is there any way to find that out?

Pretty much any contact added after Issue 2 onward. Contacts in The Hollows, any of the Shard zones, Striga, Croatoa, Faultline or RWZ (because they were redone), Cimerora, and PVP zones. That's just off the top of my head, could be more I missed.

And there's always the Mission Architect system. There's some interesting story arcs to be had in there. Some are actually quite funny, too.
