Information request: Mission texts from "A gate to nowhere," "The anomaly"
« on: 11 Mar 2011, 18:09 »
So apparently there are some new storyline missions. One is titled "A gate to nowhere" - I'd like to find out what this is about, as my old character background involved a gate to nowhere. The other is a 3-mission string called "The anomaly" involving some Amarr pilots who got trapped in the aforementioned anomaly, and went stark raving mad. This, too, is basically Endless Corporation lore from the beta, and I'd love to find out more about it.

This, by the way, is 8 years old:

Quote
Why? What did the Endless Corporation need highly advanced gates for, the kind of gate technology developed by Stanton Dowd’s group centuries earlier for FTL travel? After all, the jumpgates in use presently were far more stable, much cheaper, and much safer. Dowd had disappeared, never to be heard from again in his last experiment. His project’s files were locked away in some vault, not having seen the light of day since that final, fateful trip. Or so went the story.

Where did a gate with no exit point lead?

Haven't run across it. Sounds interesting.

If we can hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate!

Well crap, just ran The Anomaly with the alt. I wish I'd noticed this thread earlier.

A Noctis actually would make a pretty good substitute for the Event Horizon:

I believe I mentioned that a few times when the Primae first came out.

Maybe that's what inspired the mission?

Awesome mission, it sounds like. I'm definitely rolling an Amarrian mission alt just to check out the mission myself. What level is this mission gained? 1? 4?

Level 4 agent is where I got mine from. Possible that there is lower level variants as well, but I don't know.

lvl4, do not know if it is Caldari/Amarr faction specific, or whether it will appear from agents in gallente/minmatar as well.
