Features

A Scott & Barlow cargo ship has been shot down whilst entering Arkadia's atmosphere. IFN are investigating, sources close to the IFN are suggesting this can only be the work of the Smugglers. During it's entry the ship broke up before crashing into a mountanside in the arctic region. As a result, a substantial shipment of weaponry intended for the community of Arkadia has been lost. The ships manifest shows several different weapon models on board including Laser Weapons, BLP weapons, Longblades and Shortblades. IFN officials are requesting colonists to inspect the wreckage and to salvage anything they can find before the Smugglers get their hands on them.

It is also believed they had a large sample of Piron attachments.

Stables on Arkadia now have a temporary stable building, so you will clearly see where the stable is located.

Celeste Outpost Stable - cords 27288, 11014
Redoubtable Firebase Stable - cords 23159, 21662
Resolute Firebase Stable - cords 30121, 17284

Pandi pet has its own model now, and to keep the Nusuls happy we decided to give them the same upgrade.

The Smugglers are attempting to seize control of the high ground in the arctic zone, colonists are requested by the IFN to engage the Smugglers and prevent them from occupying the area. A reminder - A toxic shot is required to enter the area.

Sounds have once again returned to Planet Arkadia. As part of a high priority project for 2015 the first major upgrade to Arkadia's soundscape has been implemented. Environmental, creature and weapons sounds have been added. Further sound upgrades will be made with each update this year.

Feran have started to breed faster resulting in their younger maturities appearing in increased numbers. This could be why there seem to be a smaller population of other low level creatures in certain areas as Feran are known to hunt them on occasion.

Locations

At Event Area 3 ACA scientists have observed a Tiarak assault on the Riptor that used to inhabit the area. Riptor have been displaced, now only Tiarak of various maturity left.
