will there be a mission for it, or is it only going to be available for galaxy points?

Okay... Now that's father's day. More "exclusive" items like this will spoil the game for those who ain't paying.

Seem ok for me, if someone want to shave another 10 secants off there energy recharge for 20 or so dollars let them. It would be nice to have, but if there is no items that are cash only then cash will not be put into the game as much as it could be. Premium items do not hurt the game if done right.

Seems ok to me...i wont spend twenty to get it. this is a business and while i would love to shed a "scant" 10 secs its to much money. i will still enjoy the game just as much and am just as grateful for it. in the last week i have seem one player go from heavy cruiser to heavy star destroyer in less then 7 days. i had never seen larger then titan before. should i be able to tell that player hes not allowed to spend his money as he sees fit? i dont wont to, nor do i have the right. i wouldn't get any satisfaction growing that way, but thats me. dont worry about what other players have. there are sooo many people i will never catch as im only rank 71, but if i play smart i can compete above my level. thats the real challenge of the game. that and judging my progress against and cooperating with my peers. i guess what it comes down to is this, dont be hating on Dan for making a buck on his successful Facebook game.

By the time you recharge is ridiculously low anyways, 10 seconds is a big deal. ie if your recharge were 20 seconds, subtracting 10 seconds doubles your rate... impossible, yes, but the concept applies to all numbers in some such way

At least you can't buy research at any appreciable rate... I think as long as there is at least one major thing money can't buy, that can only be acquired by patience, then people won't be quitting in droves.

How long will this reward be available? I'm maxed out on space, so I need 2 level ups to be able to house the 2 FATHER devices if I buy them.

I was wondering if it would be better if the FATHER devices can be rebuilt or reinstalled if space runs out, the modules are destroyed (I heard modules can be destroyed?), sold off by accident, etc.

Pay the GP for the first 2 FATHER's, then from that point on, you can buy / sell them on your ship module screen without paying another 40 GP per FATHER. Why not do a flag thing in coding to this effect? Shouldn't be too much trouble- "Player X purchased 2 FATHER's? If yes, enable construction and selling of FATHER devices. If no, disable construction and selling of FATHER devices".

Or another idea is to make FATHER unsellable and indestructable (never be destroyed or lose "Perfect" condition).

It will be available until the end of Father's Day. Like other modules, the F.A.T.H.E.R. can be repaired when it is broken. There shouldn't be a need to continue to buy new ones. Also, it should be very unlikely that you would sell / demolish yours by accident - there is now a confirmation dialog you have to accept if you try to do so.

I agree with Cothordin, I'm still kicking myself about selling my psionic amplifier. Reading this thread made me realize that yes, I do very much enjoy this game, so I will very likely purchase the F.A.T.H.E.R.

Great devices -- 5 energy regen speed for no energy cost = great for low levels.

At my measly 120 energy it reduced my time for full recharge from 4.47 hours to 4.1 hours. (saving me 20 minutes per full refill :>)

Since tomorrow, Father's day is the last day to purchase FATHER, what happens if I purchase 2 and don't have the installation space for even one at time of purchase ?

Probably does the same as mission artifacts, overflows your deck space like this 185/181

Great for low levels, EXTREMELY great/impressive for higher levels.
Low levels: Energy recharge rate increased by 5-10%
High levels: Energy recharge rate increased by 10-15%+

Purchased FATHER shortly after your post and the 40 GP were deducted from those I purchased but I do NOT see the unit in the Energy nor any other section of my ship nor does it show when I VIEW SHIP STATS.

The F.A.T.H.E.R. is an artifact - you will find it in your trade cargo, where you can build it from there.
