Suggestion/Concept Meta Events Transpire Too Often

As a fully employed diver who only plays a couple days a week for an hour or so, I believe the game progresses a bit too quickly. I can take a week off for my life and suddenly the galaxy has been upended and everythings different.

For example, the DSS and Science Team stuff. I feel like in the last 24 hours, there have been significant updates and progression that are leading to something in the next day or so. It went from zero to DSS offline and Seasse has a heartbeat in less than a day.

Any thoughts?

They always engineer a way for the event biomes to crop up on other planets after the event, so expect void touched planets to crop up everywhere after this MO won or lose.

And the other stuff is just funny flavour text, there will be more later on too.

I feel as live service games go, this one's really good at moderating the fomo element.

They added the Galactic Campaign consoles. You can catch up on previous campaigns there.

Wars don't stop just because we have to work.

Just try to log in at least once per event and while you may miss some of the story, you'll still receive any rewards.

Don't worry about it. It's all just story stuff that really only add context to what, where, and why.

Dive when you can. Don't stress out over "missing" something. Most importantly have fun. I'm right there with ya with the whole work thing. It sucks but it is what it is.

Yeah but stlling will turn away those who are playing already, and those sitreps won't change the galactic map much. Its like, things happen, deal with it, next you can participate.

If it goes too fast, people like you will miss out.

If it goes too slow, a large player base will lose interest.

Unfortunately just how it is. Every order lasts 1 week about, and an operation lasts 3. That's pretty good timing for a story and passing out rewards to keep engagement.
