New this week in Mars Frontier:
“Friends Bar” Changes
Heads up, Martians! We have a small update this week.
Due to the changes in the Facebook API, all friend recruitment quests haven’t been working as intended. We’ve decided to disable these quests. If you completed one of these quests, you should see an achievement in the Legacy category:
“Congrats on being such a friendly person!”
For all Facebook games: you will no longer see the friend bar if you have no Facebook friends in game. If you still have the friend bar, you will no longer be prompted or be able to add new friends.
- Firestrike is not affected as it primarily uses the Battlehouse login system.
- Thunder Run players using the Kongregate platform are not affected.
- Battlefront Mars players using the Battlehouse login system are not affected.
In the future, we do plan on bringing back the “friends” bar, but more as a “clan bar.” We’re open to player feedback on how they’d like to see this implemented.
If you have any suggestions about this, or any general feedback you’d like to share, please let us know over the “mars-frontier” channel within our Thunder Run Discord Server.

Good hunting, Commanders!
