I was checking out the games domain article and noticed something intresting on the discription of CYSSOR.

"the quakes that still rattle Cyssor..."

does this mean that there will be earthquakes on this continent?

I would highly doubt it but just got me curious.

can be seen here..

I don't know why, but that pic gets me more excited about the game than any pic I have seen to date. It would be cool to have an occasional earthquake, but I am thinking that is more to help the game evolve. When it comes time for an update, a massive earthquake or volcanic eruption could change the landscape of that continent.

earthquakes would be sweet, but since they can't let it shake apart buildings and bridges (from gamepoint perspective) they won't happen. then again they might have it start shaking (like in T2 when a bomber just unloaded on the roof above you and it shook) to disorient you and have the vehicle controls act funny while shaking could probably be possible

lol now there's a tactic, jump to all the continents when you first sign on, then go back and build up your character lmao

Do you get BEPs for using the enemy equivalent of a vehicle in addition to the BEP you got for first using your empire's vehicle??

TI said "until it broke apart forming islands" so that means no quakes. They'd jsut get in the way of gameplay though

It doesn't mean that there will be quakes, it stating something that happened in the past before the war started up that madethe continents break away.

quakes would likely be rare dev events.
