We're partnering with the official discord server to integrate their newly overhauled, more transparent and inclusive Orbital Institute system here to the Forums, completely replacing the team badges.
You can find a quick summary of the different ranks in the spoiler.
This system is cross-platform, if you get a badge on the forums, you also get it on discord, and visa versa.
Marmilo and Khaz will be working overtime in the next few days to expand the list of users here with Orbital Institute badges.
The challenge badges system will stay, and is also experiencing its own overhaul to streamline the requirements on each challenge, open them up to more people and introduce more challenging missions at the top end for you to attempt!
These will be judged by users who have achieved a certain level in the Orbital Institute rankings.
Tier 1 of the challenges is now what used to be the team frontier level, moon return is no more. Tier 2 is what used to be team hawk level, and we have two more tiers to populate with the best challenges we can all think of in the future.
Expect some things to move around on the forum as we work out the best places for everything to go under the overhauled systems.
Happy playing!
