So, here are the first details for the universe in a formatted way.

First of all, we got the name: Jupiter. We also have some first details on the universe.
All are still in debate and this is why the topic is labeled as Pre-Release. Till Release, many can change.

As I explained at the announcements topic, we want a universe where newcomers will be able to thrive but also a universe where we will be able to bring back veterans.
So, try to keep this in mind at your feedback which is welcomed and expected.

I have 2 key notes that I want to underline:
1)Exoplanets and Mothership
These will be detailed soon at a separate topic. So hold your feedback on them for there.

2)Plus Options
By removing Imperial Support/Bonds (a way to instantly get resources) the game will be dramatically different than existing universes.
However, we need to keep in mind that Zorg Empire needs rubies income to be online. Mainly, we have server costs and advertising costs to bring new players.
Therefore, we added a few more options that will not mess with the game competition but will be interesting enough for someone to get.

This makes the intro I wanted for the key issue I want to explain more at this first post:
HOMEWORLDS

Homeworlds were a bit outside of the main focus in all previous universes. We want a different story for this universe. We want homeworlds to be the base of every player. Part to because we think that this will mostly help newcomers. This is why, we designed some extra plus options, all only available to the Homeworld.

We do not believe that these are enough though. Perhaps more can be added. It can be related to Exoplanets or extra plus options. Or something entirely new. If you got anything in mind, please share.

I was wondering about that as well but I think they copied the pre-release posts from the speed and reloaded universe forums and when they chopped it down with the new info they missed that part and it just wasn't deleted. They also have two different rates posted.

Indeed, I used Reloaded release notes as a template and I forgot to remove them.

I also posted hre to let you know that development has already started for the new universe. We do hope to finish it in March so we can release it soon. Two possible dates are either March 30 or May 6.

In terms of details/features all are still open. You can comment here or at the other topic as well.
