<div class="IPBDescription">because I'm hearing a lot...</div> I'm hearing a lot of people saying that <b>all</b> chambers will be able to be constructed with 1 hive in v1.1. At NS 1.1 Changelog only says "Alien upgrade improvements (all paths viable)". All paths viable means that all combinations of chambers will be viable. D-S-M, M-D-S, S-M-D... Why people are saying all chambers will be buildable with only one hive?. Am I missing anything?

    It is something that will be tried in playtest. Whether or not it remains... remains to be seen.

    My understanding of it was:

    <speculation>
    The chamber abilities were being toyed with a bit to make them roughly equal in terms of usefulness, thus making any path of DMS, MDS, SMD, etc workable. In addition, I think I saw somewhere that at some point there would a choice between going for more upgrades or powering up the ones you had, maybe something to do with evolving to other forms in there too.
    </speculation>

    <Fact>

    viable means that a blanket term can apply to an entire object and it's structural tree, which means perhaps that all upgrade paths are possible now, OR that all upgrades need apply to the whole.

    </fact>

    <Speculation>

    The Earth is flat. The Moon is the center of the galaxy. Pauley Shore is funny. Elton John ISNT the queer princess of England.

    </Speculation>

    <fact>

    Until the release, try not to speculate too much -- your hopes will be brought to a real high lvl and you won't be able to bring them down when something you SPECULATED was in the game and it isn't, until then; only fact is viable =)

    </fact>

    Sounds like they're making it too easy for aliens in 1.1... I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
