New Weapons, Armor and Enemies
We could not begin to enumerate the threats and theories you’ll uncover (nor do we want to spoil your adventure), but we can give you a handy breakdown of a few new technologies we feel you’ll be clamoring for in no time.
At least one new armor set, but probably more like three
New goggles, of both the swimming and night vision variety
The scoped Magbow
Several new craftable Heavy Weapons, and major buffs to Heavy Weapons in general
A couple new military-grade weapons, and Biomimic Armwraps
A jetpack?
That thing on the Exor’s arm??
You can drive the SUV now!?
The rest of this list is far too long, my fingers hurt! We feel these weapons and armor will help you against the threats that lay ahead. But that’s just a feeling.

The Universe Expands
The Praetorium
You’re deep within enemy territory now… When science becomes indistinguishable from the supernatural, the Order comes down hard. Will you make it through the depths of this ancient facility?
 
Welcome to Residence Sector
Where you would have resided, no doubt, had certain spectacular events not occurred before you could get settled into your new role at the GATE Cascade Research Facility.
 
A chill has been creeping through the Residences, bringing with it enemies well adapted to the cold. And since we’re talking about low Kelvins, you too will need to adapt through both scientific and…. unconventional means.
... And Beyond?
There is more ahead, but we really must hold back. We will say no more about the end of the main adventure. That story is a gift from us - and yours to unwrap.
 
The Enhancement Bench
One of our most important new systems which address several pieces of feedback from our scientific community.
Certain types of weapons, armor, shields and backpacks are able to be upgraded at the new, invent-able Enhancement Bench! This recipe can be accessed around Manufacturing Sector, and we spoke about it at length in the 1.0 Refresher Guide for Tenured Scientists.
New Amor
Many new armors have become available - including some that have long been sought by scientists. But you’ll have to figure out how to collect (or create) all the different sets on your own. We’re just the messenger, really.
 
Cubicles
You, as a scientist, already know that lumber is hard to come by in an office setting and the little useful wood that you have found seems a touch cursed, so not the greatest building material. With a little crafty workmanship
 
Grid Snapping
Cubicles support grid-snapping. We will investigate further grid-snapping possibilities at a later time, when we are less overburdened with scientific endeavors.
Database Terminal
The Database Terminal is your home computer, really. It currently just has two applications - the Email system, to check your emails in the comfy safety of your own home and without needing to use a clunky tablet. (Sorry - GATEPal. We meant Clunky GATEPal.)
The second application is the Item Manager, which will allow you to peruse all of your local containers and pull items from them at will. Yes, it’s quite powerful. Let us know how it goes!
 
Slaving Over a Hot Stove
About time chefs got some respect, huh?
Along with the SUPER STOVE 4000 (is that really what we called it?), there’s also a new craftable cabinet for warming items - or keeping warm items warm. Display your food or melt some ice cream, whatever you want, you’re the chef here.
