NOTE: I have placed this thread in General Discussion, as it will most likely touch upon a variety of topics on all planets, from economy, to equipment, to creatures, etc etc.
So... we have a number of pieces on the board...
All controlled (to some extent) by MindArk, the Entropia Platform Provider.
Calypso = SDS (FPC, formerly MA)
ROCKtropia = NEVERDIE Studios (Jon Jacobs)
Next Island = David Post (with influence from NDS)
Arkadia = Arkadia Studios (David Dobson)
Planet Michael = SDS
etc etc etc
Now, we have all of these "pieces" working together, yet the Planet Partners are in competition for new (and existing) players. As a business, they need to earn an income, and keep players happy with exciting, new material.
It seems to me that we will start to see more and more calculated moves by the PP's.
The purpose of this thread is simply to discuss what folks may interpret as calculated moves by Planet Partners in the "Entropia Chess Game".
Discuss, be respectful, and have fun.

- Arkadia launch date is set for 30 days from now. From what I have read, many folks are quite excited about the release date. Hopes are high for new content, and new management.
- ROCKtropia releases 2.0, with new missions geared toward attracting new players...
And generating more income.
- Calypso updates the planet by bringing back Hangars, but no spaceships as MA has yet to re-implement the space travel system. New mob (Shinkiba) replaces the Daikiba in most areas of Calypso. They are significantly faster than the Daikiba, reaching the player faster, causing more armor decay and... more income.
- NI releases Time Travel in an attempt to bring high end players to their new exclusive Land Area.
