HOLY MACKEREL!!!
Nope its the Datamine construct... this is a Holy Mackerel:

Can't go indoors though.. access restricted...I guess the Datamining *10 yield is to offset the risk involved... AoE attacks will hurt mission team...

Now I'm excited.
It mentions both hostile and friendly protocols, so it doesn't seem to be a case of PvP or nothing.

Important word highlighted!
Any my post a bit higher up on the first page says AllvAll...

hmm

When were we told what the engagement protocols meant? As far as I'm concerned the protocols being 'engaged' could mean they're actively stopping us from fighting. If the engagement protocols are dropped, we're free to fight. I don't know.
Remember that time on Syntax (may have been on other servers) when everyone could attack everyone else, regardless of Org... that was due to engagement protocals being enabled for enemies and friendlies... The protocal for engagement has been enabled, allowing you to attack. If it were the other way round I believe it'd say something like Passive Protocals Engaged. (If I am mistaken I will be wearing a very red face for a while! )
Not something I'd hoped for but I guess hoping for an extra district with NPC's and HL's and Mission contacts would have been a far greater undertaking...
*waits for everyone elses opinions before I post mine* hmm
Significantly we know that new areas are possible Vinia... so perhaps sometimes in the future we can hope for new districts.
Although i am disspointed this isnt a new district as such im happy we have a new toy to play with and i for one will be playing alot...
Would be a lot more funner if this is a single construct accessible by all servers....
Oh you can have teams but be wary of AoE attacks and there is no way to prevent you or your teammate from turning on you...
