Not to burst any bubbles but don't we alread have this minus the effect?  I have some memories that is boosters could be coded from the Taskmaster Quick Silver lugs from data mining.

Edit:  Just Checked it code Optimizer Hypo is what i was thinking of.

I don't think you need to team up to do them, you can still do it on your own and get the pill/hypo thingy. If you happen to be on a team for a crit then everyone will get one as you won't be able to run it again...

If the leader of your mission team calls up the latest critical mission, and you help your team complete that mission, you can't run that same critical mission on your own after you leave the team.


Yeah, I dound this out the hard way.

This is a nice starting point for this critical mission incentive. I'm cusious, too, about the tradablity and termination on death. My guess is non-tradable and gone on death.

I like the animated Image Retrieval. Is this the first animated one?

Looks like the toon in the pic has the decompile 12pt shirt on...

EDIT: Let's consider that if you do your own critical, you can still be on someone else's team to help them and get another. I smell a pyramid scheme...

Wait... does this reward work retroactively?  Meaning all the people who haven't been keeping up on their crits will now be rewarded with tons of these IS boosters when the update hits after running all the past crits, whereas those of us of who have been running our crits in the intended timely manner will only have one consumable to last us for the week.  Is that right?

Unless... we run the latest crit for ourselves, and then start asking around for people who haven't yet run theirs, and then join their team... rinse, repeat?

It's starting at the beginning of chapter 10.2 so people won't be able to run previous crits...

Highlighted part is interesting... unless it's gonna be a singleton too...

Nah.  If you don't do your crits, you lose the opportunity when a new chapter hits.

I thought older crits would remain in your mission log until you ran them, either by yourself or with a group.  That is, if your character was playable at the time that those old crits were actually available.  I could be wrong though.

I got the feeling that certain people would be rewarded for not playing a portion of the game by running all their old crits that they failed to keep up on.

That's what I'd hoped. 

Good to know.  :)

Happy to see a nice incentive for those who run their crits.

Nothing wrong with a little weekly Live Critical incentive to run through the missions.  I hope to see this concept expanded upon in the future.
