Are Contracts Company specific?


Recommended Posts

I haven't really been keeping track of this, but does each company offer certain types of contracts? i.e Does Rockomax mainly offer parts testing for its products? or Flooyd mainly do orbital satellite contracts?

I was thinking that if the fame awarded by the contracts was company sensitive, and companies would offer more contracts as your fame grew with them, then this would help shape your experience by presenting more of what you are doing (and reducing contracts from the companies you shun.)

To the best of my knowledge, no. I think that, if anything, the company is selected based on what's being tested, e.g. if it asks for you to test a Mainsail, then the game will set Rockomax as the company. But I'm probably wrong.

// * Cooperative [not impl]
// * Ecomental [not impl]
