Q.	Can I use smilies in chat?
A.	We have no plans for graphical smilies for in-game chat. If the community desires graphical smilies in-game, we will look into it.

Q.	How can we the users help to support the games growth?
A.	Tell people about the game, what is going on here at RenWerX with the Ascension project. Talking to your friends and online acquaintances is one of the best things you can do for us. Linking to us in your forum signatures and online profiles helps us too. If, by chance, we have some way to help us advertise, please contact Teratos.

Q.	How many maps do you guess will be in the full release?
A.	We wont be guessing as to the number of maps in the final release, however you can count on a wide and diverse variety of levels to play on.

Q.	If I wanted to join the team, what would I do?
A.	If you think you can help us, please contact our recruiter – Badazz. You will be given a test assignment and asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA).

Q.	Is Ascension Tribes? Will it be similar? If so, how similar? etc...
A.	Ascension is NOT Tribes. It will be similar in some basic aspects to current FPSZ titles, but at the same time Ascension has its own unique twist on the genra focusing on mod ability and customization that other FPSZ titles just cant match. Every aspect of the game is being designed with with customizability to be as mod friendly as possible

Q.	What are some of the differences between Ascension and Ascension: Renegades at this time?
A.	At this time, Ascension: Renegades is only in the planning stages, only one or two weapons have been implemented. The major differences are still the wider selection of armors, weapons, and equipment in Renegades. More detail will be released about Renegades once Ascension is finished.

Q.	What armors are currently in the works?
A.	Light, Medium, Heavy, AI (bot), and maybe the gnome armor?!!

Q.	What kind of support do you think there will be for Modders?
A.	Scripting lead Mr. Keen has developed an all-modular (Object-Oriented) system that will make modifications much easier. With the entire team made up of former and present modders, support for modifications is a top-priority.

Q.	What packs are currently in the works?
A.	Energy, Repair, Shield, Ammo, Sensor Jammer, Cloak, and the Satchel Charge. We may still add or remove packs.

Q.	Which Devs is it not safe to insult?
A.	Teratos is quick to kick people from IRC.

Q.	Will Ascension cost anything?
A.	No, the Ascension game and its content will be completely FREE.

Q.	Will the net code provide smooth playability?
A.	Yes. We are doing everything we can to ensure smooth playability. This is the reason we will not be adding a map auto-download ability to Ascension.

Q.	Will there be a clan manager built in?
A.	Yes. Community suggestions for features are greatly appreciated.

Q.	Will there be automatic map downloading?
A.	Most likely no. What may be implemented instead is a redirect to a download server. This could save on server bandwidth – assuming the download server is on a different connection.

Q.	Will there be integration with a TWL type ladder manager?
A.	We are currently looking into various options. Community input would be greatly appreciated.

Q.	Will voice chat be a part of the package?
A.	Key bindings to pre-recorded audio messages (voice binds) will be included.  We are currently investigating Voice Chat options but we cannot confirm or deny if Voice Chat will be in the final release at this time.
