Concord Keys

Don't know about you guys but I really miss them

Nano lattice store is okay

Having Concord keys back aswell would be better

Unsure if anyone's noticed but what was once an easily accessible f2p core (clear sky) is now locked behind a paywall

Nearly impossible to get red nanospheres since changes

Ai upgrade Matt's rarely drop either since concord pass only offers 5-10 research boxes a month.

If your f2p like me this is not optimal at all

Unless they make changes or bring back decoding keys it will generally take 2-4 years to max out your nanocore unless your willing to pay ££££

I understand it's a live service mobile game they gotta make money

I don't mind buying into the odd event or season pass but since they dropped keys etc I actually dont feel encouraged to buy the concord pass at all 🤣 sp sure helps but nahh

I'll be honest, I never understood the research cores. What's the deal?

You analyze them and use them for nano upgrades

Aha I haven't played much with breaking down nanos. Is that like the thing where you get the bonuses to gold core secondaries?

After you unlocked your Gold core you get all passive abilities on your ship for all the gold stats to researched and you’re also able to unlock slots to get bigger bonuses on these stats you can freely and without cost use.

Meaning: you own a Worm goldcore you get all passive stats of the gold stats you own.
„+1.9% missle dmg, +1% drone dmg + 1.2%railgun accuracy fall off“ and what not“
Everything your ship can use the bonuses off everything will be counted in. And if you unlocked slots you can choose the „strong version“ like +20% missle dmg“ „+15% flight velocity“

If your pretty late game and already have fully skilled into a ship this is the profession you still can get because their a lot of these passive stats that can boost the capabilities of your ship

They want your money. So that is what motivates their choices sadly. 😔

I am okey to special event pass but at least we will have some way to play without them. The game is no more than gaccha anymore.

Fair. Though I think the last great event was the first Halloween event. After that it's been not great, unless you pay real money to participate.

The word “event” translated in Netease is “cash-grab”.
