Hi, as the subject title say, I just started playing the free version of this game yesterday with a sandbox character, and when I tried to re-hire my starter ally in those VIP rooms via the locate command, the game said "Additional runners are available in the Elite version".
I know that I'm limited to only one helper in the free edition, but it says the same message even when I'm going alone there and all I can do is to constantly re-hire new runners. Was the re-hiring supposed to be an elite-only feature, or it is a bug?

Hi ! Re-hiring runners is a whole part of CyberKnight's game mechanics (developing a runner's skills, converting him into an ally to make him permanent in your team until death, etc.), so technically you should be able to re-hire them as much as you want, even in Free Version. It seems to be a bug here ; can you please tell us what phone, OS version and game version you are currently using ? This could help fallen to track your problem.

I just noticed there was an update and got the 2.0.2 version from google play right now. It still doesn't let me re-hire runner

Thank you for your additional information ! If the update didn't do the trick, then this is definitely a bug ; this thread should be moved to Bug Reports (CK) by the way, fallen will take care of it. Thanks for your report !

Aha, so the bug is that Free version players need to get a better message, such as 'Sorry, you need to update to Elite in order to rehire runners in backrooms. You can import this Knight and all other Free knights you have made when you upgrade to Elite.' when they try.

@guest - thanks for the report on this. I will test, but the intention is that you should be able to re-hire runners. The message that you are getting is to indicate that you already have the max. Do you have anyone in your party?
I will fix the message to be more clear and check the code to ensure it is working for Free / Elite.

Fixed for next with the correct message if you team is oversized.
@guest - sorry, there was a mistake in the order of logical checks that was resulting in Free preventing re-hires. It seems recently introduced as we were updating those messages about the runners you are hiring.

Hi, i'm the guest of before and decided to create an account. As I said before, I tried to do it going alone to the backrooms and got that message. As I made a really social skills focused Face (probably it was a bad idea, but it was my first characters so I dunno about good builds), I relied a lot on my thug for hire to do the fighting while I supported from afar and my plans got kinda ruined as I couldn't get a permanent ally to fit with the most expensive equipment possible. At least during that time I filled my character with implants and can do battles well enough instead of dying XD Anyways, thanks for quick attention, this looks like a nice community and I started this game because Star Traders was really good! Although I wonder if you there's any awards system in Cyber Knights, quite a lot of the fun I had with ST was unlocking things and getting as many achievements as possible

dianne Welcome in the community ! Face playthoughs are tough ; you should ask advice to Officer Genious, she knows her ways with Silvertongues. Sorry, but there is no award system in CK. I think it should on CyberKnights II wishlist though.

Why murder when you can extort??

Hahahahahaha my CKs LOVE Kazuo Ichin; he pays well and gives all sorts of nice goodies. And the Yakuza may be broken up across the NBZ, but they make wonderful oases when I need a break from killing masses of BH and KH.
