Thanks everyone. I'm going to wait on invading this one exotic planet I had in mind. I don't want to waste a mutagenic cartridge with a 49% chance of success

That's what I thought, this is what it actually says: Quote: Invasion chances are now boosted significantly when invading planets occupied by players who have been inactive from the game for 6+ months. I don't see any specifics there...

I was wondering about that, thanks for finding it. Dan's comment, second page: Quote: Max Invasion chance should always be 90%. Please take a screenshot if you see anything higher than that and let us know which planet you had this issue with. Always looking for rumors to dispel...
