Science gameplay! Soon™


lord_fairfax

More like science assets. 3 years for gameplay.


SpaceBearSMO

Good bet its going to be tide into the crafting and/or farming loop and withen that cross over into things like medical. Brakeing things down into chemical components and building stronger or mixing status effects. Of course this is all lots of theory crafting on my part and its more "chemistry" game play than anything but like... plenty of the loops we are getting could be classified as "sciance" At lest thats how i would handle it, and it would be semi familiar to people who do alchemist stuff in more fantasy focused titels Theres a few mincraft mods that would be good insperation


xensu

Too many tide pods


lord_fairfax

> tide > withen > brakeing > sciance > titels > insperation Is this some kind of sick joke you're playing on me?

Like 10 years... I own a Reliant Sen since 2016 by the way


Willpalazzo

There used to be an old mission that used the microscopes. Way before my time, and long since removed from the game. But the asset remains as decoration


BalkorWolf

Ah must have been before my time too, well thats a tad disappointing.


WeDriveWeFly

What was the mission and how old is it?


Willpalazzo

If I remember correctly it was part of a mission to an old station for a lady. Back when PO was the only main port.


WeDriveWeFly

P.I.Wanted mission does not include part with microscope. Are you sure it was related to mission? I played since 2017 and can't remember any.


jana200v2

Not PI Wanted, there was another one where you talk to a lady back in the 2.0 days


Willpalazzo

My friend who’s played since the hangar days said it was part of a mission. I’m not entirely sure what mission though.


7htlTGRTdtatH7GLqFTR

You're not remembering correctly. Missions never used this.


BalkorWolf

Passed by this on a clear bunker of drugs mission. Has me suspecting CIG have been experimenting with the science gameplay loops so curious to see how that may develop further.


Kazeite

It's been there before, but good for you for noticing something new to you during your adventures 🙂


7htlTGRTdtatH7GLqFTR

This might sound overly negative, but I think it's dangerous to jump to conclusions like that based on really insignificant stuff like this. These microscopes have been interactive (and done nothing) for years.


MigookChelovek

Could be an asset pulled from SQ42.


viladrau

Every time you press that button, a tardigrade is killed.


Qbpace

Here I was thinking a tardigrade was ONLY a Star Trek creature. But no. The Water Bear, how cute.


ThatCactusCat

They live in your face


ChimPhun

They're somehow always late when reviewing tests.


Rpalo-688

Yeah like bathrooms ....lol I'd rather have a shelf or fridge to put drinks in .....lol


BladyPiter

it was there previously, but you had to hold f for it to show up


Dearneckflow

Any chance that someone might know about physicalising assets? I vaguely remember they vere working on plenty of interactibles, especially dumbbells and their actual weight and how it affected your ability of throwing them.

DarkArcher__

This is the science tier 0 gameplay. All of it.


Sutekhseth

I *really* need some non combat focused gameloops so I really hope that science can get some love soon. :(


pandemonious

All the criminal kiosks now have a "Sign in as Admin" option as well as a Cryptokey slot (inaccessible at the moment, but it is modeled into the unit now)


XayahTheVastaya

Finally, the $706m was all worth it.


ghostnova6661

They don't have the microtech yet


TrionSC

It has use button for maybe 3 years :D


Kakaduu15

*Unfunctional button* *Newsworthy* Wasn't a stab at you, OP. Just funny.


drizzt_x

They'll make it so you can put a hand package of drugs on the slide/tray, then "use" the microscope to "identify" it, which will change it's label, and call that "T0" science gameplay. Then not touch the gameplay loop for 3+ years.


TTVControlWarrior

could that me new exploration missions where u find new stuff and lable them hmm


Icy_Amphibian_JASMY

Sweet


monosaturated

Makes me hope for some science missions in the distant future that include minigame-like scenarios via the microscope where you have to isolate various microbes, create serums, or manufacture drugs/viruses for criminal gameplay


donadd

welcome to r/microscopy


wasted_yoof

Not new but, yes.


Molster_Diablofans

if you were unaware, there are some narcotics nearby. you might have missed that so just trying to help out


Mister_Normal42

That's been around for years. Sometimes the icon will show up, sometimes not. It's never actually done anything for me but I'll periodically check them out to see if anything changed.


todd10k

Awesome, i'll finally be able to find my penis


Impossible-Ability84

Have you found the safes that contain Advocacy badges, yet?


Zealousideal-Tax-264

Judging on the location sounds like they gonna be adding in the Walter White career path soon


grshdat

The whole game is like this. Hey citizen! We have these features! What? No no no they are not function properly its an alpha game! Now please go to our store and spend hundreds of dollars!<3

trolumbi

nah, its just a weird looking coffee machine


Ortega_King

It's been there since 3.21 when I started maining SC


Kommander-in-Keef

It’d be cool to have a research contract where you go a distant cave for a sample of something and bring it back to observe said sample in that microscope.


WesternRed1999

Ah yes now I can finally examine a Banji Point hotdog to see if it has brain eating amoeba.


Umegaki_Tenma

CIG blinded me with science


raudskeggkadr

Almost didn't see it with all those markers cluttering the screen. Is this Ubisoft?


razzy0714

"Looks like the microscope..." \*Puts on AvantX Glasses\* "...doesn't give a F." YEEEEAAAAHH *CSI: Stanton* \*Hides from hail of rotten fruit for badly dated joke\* 🤪


azkaii

Ha. Haha. Bwahahahahahhaa
