Yes, agreed. It needs something that says "oh hey, you're in SPACE!"

A window? How about a room with a glass dome for a ceiling, with the star-view above? (And an airlock in the corner of said room)

I figured out that I was missing at least Siege. I couldn't remember ever facing him in the new arc. I asked my friend, and he said he didn't remember him either, but he hadn't tried playing it on a character without the badge. So, I fired up old Maria. The interesting thing is that Shadowstar counted as number 13. I know I killed Shadowstar at least twice. So this means that somehow NEW Shadowstar doesn't count right now, but old shadowstar does. Killing old Siege got me the badge.

I can't imagine that leaving Siege out of the new arc was done on purpose to make people do extra work for the badge. And Shadowstar definitely looks like a bug. I sent a petition.

Drat! Came to report that Shadowhunter was still part of the story but I see if you had the arc pre-GR you still have the old arc. Blah... I guess I'm stuck with the old arc for both Jenkins and Tina (on my two level 40+ characters).

So will both versions of the missions be available. perhaps though the pillars of ice and flame. some people may start to feel nostalgic for the old blue robots and thugs.

Doubly agreed.

This has been suggested before as well, back when it used the old tileset.

Both the old and new versions of Tina's and Maria's arcs are in Obo.

I maybe shoulda bugged that then. I was a little ways into Maria's old arc on one character when i18 hit, and all of a sudden, she's giving missions in the new arc. I have no idea if it got started over or what's really going on at this point. At one point, my character was looking for scanners and then all of a sudden Maria's all like "go stop Siege's death machine", or something.

I think the reason Sahdow Hunter was written out is that someone that wild really doesn't have a place in the new version of the Praetorian government - he was ok when they were ruling over a wasteland of ruins, but he's just be so out of place in Praetoria 2.0.

Althouhg, there might be a chance that he appears in some future Praetorian content as a more neutral enemy - maybe even a contact - like he'd be someone who'd despise the DE for being a corruption of nature, and also despise Tyrant and his system for being so anti-nature because of the DE - he be a neutral living in his own wilderness area outside Tyrant's empire.

Does tina macintyre still cap at level 45 (before raising difficulty) or did they make it so you can get the contact at 50 now? If not, they really need to make this contact scale up to 50. Doing a flashback isn't a great option if you find yourself needing to recruit people or wanting to do other things that tf mode won't allow.

Or he could even have sided with the Devouring Earth during the Hamidon Wars, due to desperation/revenge/etc. and that's why he's dead now. Cole killed him during the war or something.
