Upcoming Release: "S.E.N.S.E" Update

The following update teaser applies to our AI NPC's, of which many more will be added to Calypso with the upcoming update!

New Features

"S.E.N.S.E" Update:

We are excited to present the "S.E.N.S.E" update, an exciting new chapter for Entropia Universe, where our Immersive Companions take a bold step forward. These Immersive Agents are now more aware of their surroundings and can engage in more thoughtful and lifelike interactions, making them feel more dynamic than ever before. With new senses and contextual understanding, these companions will offer more immersive experiences as they engage with players and the world around them.

Chat Bubbles: A New Way to Connect

Immersive Companions can now actively engage with you via chat bubbles that they can express themselves through. These greetings are personalized, considering the agent’s personality and your history together, creating a deeper sense of connection and engagement.

Enhanced Conversational Skills: Fluid and Adaptive

The conversational abilities of these agents have been greatly improved, allowing for smoother, more natural dialogues. Each Immersive Companion adapts to your one-on-one interactions, making conversations feel personal and responsive. Rather than just offering help, they now focus on creating meaningful exchanges ranging from casual to informative. Some may still assist directly when asked, but they are more likely to engage you in conversations that feel alive and reactive to your input.

S.E.N.S.E Sensory Environment and Neural Synchronization Engine

For the first time, Immersive Companions have been given Senses—a level of environmental awareness that allows them to understand where they are and what’s around them. They can now reference their exact location, nearby terminals, creatures, map locations, teleporters and other important game elements. These new senses make conversations richer and more useful, as companions can help you navigate the world, point you toward key locations, or discuss the environment around them.

Autonomy in Interaction: Conversations with Character

While these agents still aim to help, they now exhibit a degree of autonomy in their actions. They might choose to assist you in finding a waypoint or opt to keep the conversation going instead. Their personality traits influence their responses and behaviors, meaning each interaction will feel different depending on the Immersive Companion you're speaking with. They won’t just be generic NPCs offering directions—they’ll respond based on the rapport you’ve built and the situation at hand.

Clickable Links and Waypoints: Seamless Navigation

Immersive Companions are now offering clickable links to locations, waypoints, and items. Whether setting a waypoint to a repair terminal or pointing you toward a landmark, these companions are equipped with practical knowledge of the world to make your exploration smoother.

Memory and Context: Conversations That Evolve

Immersive Companions now maintain a memory of your interactions, making conversations more fluid and continuous. They can recall previous chats and bring up past topics, creating an ongoing dialogue rather than isolated encounters. This memory creates a more cohesive and personal relationship with each companion, allowing for deeper engagement.

Knowledge Retrieval: Expanding Their Expertise

With improved access to the knowledge base, Immersive Companions can now provide more accurate and detailed information about Entropia’s lore and general game knowledge. Their answers will continue to become more comprehensive with future updates, making them valuable sources of in-game information, especially as their database of knowledge grows and evolves.

Enhanced Personalities: Unique and Lifelike

Every Immersive Companion now has a distinct personality that comes through in interactions. Whether they are reserved, curious, or outgoing, each companion behaves in a way that fits their unique character. Conversations will vary based on their traits, making each interaction feel different from the last. You’ll notice this distinctiveness in their responses, tone, and the way they engage with you.

Unreal Integration

Everything we do in this update will seamlessly transfer to our upcoming Unreal integration. The current and Unreal clients are designed to run simultaneously, allowing players to transition between them without disruption. All the advancements in the S.E.N.S.E system and Immersive Companions will carry over, offering the same lifelike interactions and dynamic experiences regardless of which client you're using.

Has anyone else noticed the player base growing?

We obviously don't get accurate counts from Mindark on the size of the active player base, but it FEELS like it's been growing a bit. I've been using the number of Calypso auction pages as a benchmark for awhile now. I've seen it as low as 600 pages in the last few years, and it's been hovering around 700 pages for maybe a year or so, but today I see that it is currently at 804. This obviously doesn't take into account other planet activity, but Calypso is definitely growing and is around a high for at least the last year, maybe a couple more. Sure, Mayhem just ended, so everyone is selling off their loot, so we'll see if the trend continues over the next few months, but it did catch my attention, none-the-less. Anecdotally, I have been seeing more players out in the wild than I have in some time, too. So what do you think? Have you noticed this too? Is it UE5 hype driving the growth? Or am I just seeing things? submitted by /u/DoubleWolf [link] ...

New Starter Packs

Greetings Colonists,​ As many of you will be aware, we have been working to overhaul many of the packages and offerings available through our webshop. These new and modified packages will roll out in stages, with the first stage being the replacement of the Starter Packs. These are now available in the webshop . What's Changed?​ With our new Starter Packs, along with the upcoming Starter Kits, we had a few goals in mind for the redesign: To make the choice of pack simple and less confusing To keep the price points relatively low To keep the contents of the packs focused To make the stats of the equipment more impactful and more cost effective to use Approximately, using the new starter pack guns are over 50% cheaper per hour of play in regards to rate of ammo and decay consumption in comparison to the old Z12 Barbarella (via increased DPP). This makes it better for new players - and a great option for low-deposit players alike. We also opted to include a melee weapon i...
