Detention: Arena (PvP/PvPE)

LORE

The heavily militarised zone of Sector X widely known as "Detention" or by the underworld as "10-Sec" is an unescapable fortress. The GEA (Galactic Enforcement Agency) are the policing body of the Nekon star system. Appointed by the leaders of the great nations to instil a sense of security and diplomacy between the members of the SSA (Strategic Space Alliance), they vigilantly patrol the star system and respond to incident reports. Sector X is home to the GEA. This is where the criminals of the Nekon system are brought to justice. All crimes are tried by the GEA. From crimes as trivial as petty theft, to those accused of war crimes. Murderers, bounty hunters, even world leaders are brought here and detained for the judgement of their crimes. If found guilty, they are often sentenced to death, however, those who escape that fate, often wish they had not. There are some things far worse than death. A life of servitude and slavery are not an easy pill to swallow for many. A lifetime of labour in some of the most treacherous and hostile worlds known to the system, is far worse. No sympathy or mercy are afforded to those who are sentenced to life imprisonment. It's not uncommon for inmates to be sent to new unexplored worlds as cannon-fodder, more often than not, ill-equipped to tackle the new environment. Sometimes they are simply sent as test subjects so that the GEA may study the reaction of the unknown creatures or natives, when unwelcomed life is forcibly introduced into their habitat. Needless to say, this very rarely ends well for the inmate. The SSA prides itself on its offensive capabilities, and few can match it's might. Supported by the nations of the SSA they are equipped with the latest in weapons technology and even have access to most experimental and defensive capabilities. They are the largest organisation in the Nekon star system and their presence is overwhelming. Test them at your peril.

ABOUT

Detention is an Arena styled battleground mode where players must compete against each other in short, time limited games. Compete, destroy, control, capture and claim victory over the opposing team and NPC forces to prevail. Collect points to progress through the leagues and be the envy of all aspiring galactic pilots. With reputation comes reward (PFR eligibility required*). Arena mode has its own set of challenges to overcome and missions to complete. Arenas have their own placement systems which follow a similar structure to many popular MOBA games. The leagues operate a similar Bronze-Challenger structure but in Space Guardians are referred to as Worlds. The divisions, typically 1-4 (highest - lowest, respectively), are referred to as sectors. These leagues have a dedicated prize pool and don't share that of our Normal (Survival / High Score) and Tournament modes.

Arenas consist of 1v1, 2v2, and Squad v Squad modes. Players will engage in PvP (player vs player) and PvPE (player vs player and environment) matches, where bots and other AI controlled entities will work against the players to add an extra level of mayhem. Dynamic events are triggered randomly during gameplay.
