It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for ...
oh sure, right after I spent a week on each base rebuilding from scratch. >.<
Nice to see that after more than THREE YEARS of player requests (and 10+ Issues), that it took a suggestion at the player summit to finally implement a single bullet point in a huge list of base concerns.

At this point I'm expecting base salvage storage to be increased sometime after Hell freezes over.

So...is that BEFORE or AFTER the heat-death of the universe?
Lol, my New Year's resolution on this base stuff was to be more grateful, hopeful, and patient. But I gotta admit, it hasn't been easy... both in terms of the long wait for development and the hopefully short wait for character copy so I can to convert inf to prestige for testing in beta.
One man's terrorist is another man's freedom (or freem?) fighter; just as one man's exploit is another man's feature.
I understand they're giving serious consideration to raising that storage limit to 32.

I'm glad we'll be able to scratch off another item on THE LIST.
I do have a base on beta, but dunno if I'll be able to test it out anytime soon. If someone beats me to it, I have a couple questions...
I understand they will cost more in prestige, but have they left eng/ctrl costs the same?
Also, is the number of beacons allowed in the TP rooms the same, or increased to accommodate?

YUMMY Low-Hanging Fruit for BASE LUV
I have a base on beta with 2 billion prestige from the time we got to test out the rotational tool (yes, that was another item on "the list" that I'm thankful for).

Beacons, with the exception of the Teleport Bay, is unlimited. I would assume (based on the fact I haven't touched Beta yet and current knowledge) that won't change just because a teleporter can house 6 beacons by itself.

I will let you know when I get into Beta and start fidigiting with it.

Oh, there is a new beacon for the New Dark Astoria for both heroes and villains. The old hero DA beacon apparently goes to the Echo.

Any numbers on these yet? Cost, Control, Power and such?
Salvage is currently identical to the regular telepads.
Energy and Control consumption is currently identical to regular telepads.
Prestige cost is higher though: 22,500
Still, considering you can now get away with 3-4 telepads MAX vs 11-12 on Live?
11 x 15,000 = 165,000
4 x 22,500 = 90,000
The Issue 22 announcement has a very welcome section. There will be new telepads which allow for 6 destinations instead of 2. This is something that has been desired for years. I am happily anticipating reclaiming large swaths of base floorspace that doesn't need to be taken up with telepads now.
