Spy (discontinued game mode)
Gosh, You're a Spy/Spymaster! lets get sleuthing!
The Master, of Spies:
As a spy master, you start with a multi-use implanter, a mediocre syndicate dagger, and a traitor uplink. Lets look at these in a little more detail!
Implanter:
The implanter has 4 uses, and when used on someone makes them 100% loyal to you. They will stay loyal to you forever, unless someone cuts out thier implant, or another master implants them.
the dagger:
More for show than anything else, this pointy dagger never the less makes for a adequate weapon, especially on downed opponents.
The Uplink:
A modified uplink, with several items (cloak, energy sword) removed. Don't be greedy, consider buying some items for your mind slaves too!
The game is a foot!
Bear in mind that Conspiracy is meant to be a Stealthy kind of mode, if you're really good, the normal crew might not even notice your activities! When implanting people, try to avoid people seeing you implanting; or the jig might be up.
If you're a spy master, you should search out people who might be good to implant (heads of staff, etc) and implant them post haste. Get yourself a decent team together as quickly as you can, make sure no one saw you implanting or followed you, and give your new slaves orders. Consider sending your slaves off on the more dangerous or mundane tasks, as you're more important!
Do try to stop your slaves from going nuts and killing everyone in sight. This is not very stealthy and will most likely bring the wrath of security/the crew down upon you. If other spy masters are smart, they'll realise what's going on as well.
Hiding in plain sight
So you're a mind slave huh? Great! Firstly, and most importantly, you must follow to the letter every order your new master gives you! If he tells you to set yourself on fire and then jump into space, do it! (Lets hope your master is not that harsh!)
There is no one stopping you, but it's not a very good idea to go nuts and start killing everyone in sight, or launching a one man crusade against security. Most likely you will be captured, beaten to death, mistaken for a traitor or de-implanted, ruining all your fun!
If your leader is halfway competent, he'll most likely tell you to scout around and try and find out who the other spies/spy masters are. If you find them, report back your info. If your leader is even more competent, he might even arm you. Otherwise, consider getting some form of weapon or protection for yourself.
Sound Sleuthing Tips!
- Stealth is the name of the game! the less people who know who you are or see whats going on, the better!
