SnapStrHi.
From this video I understood that weapons as such will not be very necessary in the Odyssey. The firefight was just for atmosphere apparently. Since two people just ran past a crowd of NPC. All that is needed are first-aid kits. )))
But maybe I'm too strict.

It was mentioned several times on stream that this missions is on easy difficulty. Same as with ships. You can do low res site without any engineering, but lvl 7 threat signal will require heavily engineered ship or you will be banged.

my only concern personally is the quality of the AI programming.  My personal preference is that easy missions would have a bit sparser guard patrols with them armed with weaker weapons, but otherwise still acting with a common sense of self preservation (using cover and reacting like a normal person would).  What I saw was fine for pre-alpha or even alpha, as long as it doesn't stay that way. The NPC ship behavior is well done, so I'm sure they can handle on foot AI.

I understand that, but I'm not sure that in the higher levels NPC will behave smarter, rather they will be like cheaters shoot without a miss and have a powerful weapon, but they will behave all the same as idiots.
I hope, I realy hope, I am deeply mistaken )))

After the Warcraft 3 reforged debacle, I would be careful. Different team on that one, but Blizzard is still Blizzard. They know nostalgia will drive most of the sales.

I never liked warcraft games, so I do not even know what Blizzard did there.

So far it is same game with just graphic update and shared stash. All I wanted since I saw d3. We will see.

Nope, you need a gun to shoot the defenceless wrokers.

I wonder if stun guns will be a thing ?

Oh, yep ))) To shoot the defentless workers to the back , my favorite roleplay tactic )))
I didn't expect ME 1, 2 or 3, but this game mechanics looks like say hello from 20 century. ))

In elite my balance is 51 million bit on inara it's 15 million, also the cg says that I've done less that on the game too and it's really bugging me, I hole there's not something wrong

According the journal, as I have just checked, everything looks alright (at least in a meaning that Inara imported everything correctly). So no idea where the rest to 51 millions you mentioned is, but nothing like that is implied in the recent journal.
