You create the hero but he doesnt become available to you straight away? need a temple first or something like that?
or You are the hero?
Your CEO (Cheif Executive Officer) is basically your hero player. You will be able to customize them when you start like spec skills, etc.
Then all other employees you will need to hire in world.
So judging by what you said... This is going to be persistent? (like rpgwo)
How about docking yards for people to log in/out safely.
Yes, persistent. Not really sure how it will all work yet like when you logout, what stays in world and what gets removed.
Permanent structures like buildings would stay, maybe everything on your owned land would stay, so you can have guards.
But on un-owned land, I think all mobile units would be removed. Anything in orbit or docked would be safe.
Then that brings up the issue of resurrection for employees/players and for other unit types like vehicles.
For players, maybe we have a scanning/resurrect device that saves the state of a player to resurrect later. So a player looses whatever
skill improvements at death but doesn't have vitae at resurrection unless you pay for a cheap resurrect maybe.
Vehicle/machine wise, maybe you can buy insurance so if it gets blown up you get a percent value back, depending on the level of insurance.
Don't really know until we try some ideas out and see how it works and what is exploitable, etc.
