The next phase of CK is Faction Wars, and is described as involving territory takeovers. I would love to back the Streets and wipe the corps out. Is it fair to assume that factions will be rebalanced so that any of them can be a contender for dominance?
Might there be new factions? If so, may I suggest a "Lo-Tek" type of faction?

CK: Faction Wars is actually a second game in the CK universe.
In this game you play a Faction leader in the pre-Global Matrix (2201 - 2216) and fight for domination of the NBZ.
The player will have an option to create a new Faction or use one of the current ones.

Good to know, thanks. Sorry about the misattribution. But original CK is slated to have takeovers, right? If so, will there be rebalancing? New factions? What's the plan for New Berlin?
You seem to be juggling a lot of projects. How many games are you guys planning to have in production simultaneously? I appreciate you, but it seems like existing games will take forever to get done if new ones are continually added.
I'd be less interested in a game that didn't include the Matrix. Some of my favorite games have been 100% hack sims.

CK is tracking Faction power ratings based on rumors. If by 'takeover' you mean non-matrix ownership changes in the zones, no -- that is something we'll be reserving for CK: FW, not CK RPG.
The balancing as it stands today took a lot of work and a crazy amount of time, math and debate. I'm very pleased with how it turned out -- so, right now there are no plans for any changes in the NBZ (aside from monsters.)
New Berlin, San Francisco Radiation Zone ... we have partially completed maps for 4 new areas. Balancing and building content in them is a lower priority than completing systems like Matrix and Social.

The idea of Ck faction wars has me salivating at the thought! I only hope that when it does come out it will have fleshed out story modes for each faction. The lone wolf nature of Ck itself fits more in line to random sandbox exploration while factions would have more clear cut (& restrictive) goals, objectives and agendas.
