Unlimited PvE mode

[vague cedar]

It would be nice to have a casual PvE mode where you could just fight against Cerberus ships in a separate star system. No hydrogen to access, no penalties for losing ships, no time limits. Just plain old casual PvE during downtime, when your research station is full and there's nothing else to do.

Whenever you clear it portals spawn more stuff

Whenever you clear what? Which portals?

Endless survival mode when

Something like that could make a fun new competitive mode too. PvE, with a seasonal leaderboard offering rewards based on how far you can make it.

Would love to see something that’s slower than rs for better control but with a ff button to get through early waves.

sounds like RS to me

if i need to burn off hydro i play pub rs and help others

it's something

Problem is, I don't want to have to spend lots of hydrogen to just play around and enjoy the game's combat systems. Maybe the Hydrogen economy is different at various stages of the game, but for where I am, I am constantly running low.

Have you maxed hydro income for your level?

[fickle zephyr]

jumping into RS with battleships only is cheap on hydro. see also RS event hydro-efficient grinding.
so you can do it over and over many times, just don't bring in transports.

So maybe make a station Ike the diplo that places you in a star system like red star (but separate) no planets no hydro, those "empy" hydro spots only. Once inside have portals with cerbs from the level of your red star scanner start spawning in the cerbs. Once you destroy them more portals (from rs) spawn more. You should be able to allow participants from diplo 🙂 (you could also have to scan for this or could be "always open") if you scan for it you should then be able to do rs10 + cerbs so you can have practice place (this does not effect your rs)

So no rewards, maybe from this you can create a new event that gives you like the old white star scanner reward, on a weekend or something have a endless round where you just survive as long as you can and that time is the leaderboard BUT I kinda just want the endless mode not really worried about rewards

This adds the ability to create new player rewards. If you are a new player you actually gain coins from here? To give incentives and help level faster? But also not needed (just trying to help the new players 😅 )

I think that the sectors around your yellow star should have become the "dark nebula" where cerb bases and whatnot appear daily and if you kill in time you get a small reward, similar to the daily reward.

[lyric reef]

I think I made that suggestion, but I said the open sectors with nothing in them, the less you play the more there are. Just diplo if you have to take weeks off the game

What would make more sense is a scanner that detects cerbs bases/forces like the hydro spawner

But I feel this isn't the unlimited experience wanted but should be a different feature added as well 😁
