This confuses me even more now.... Is it a new location on earth, or does it FEEL like a new location because of the different environment? Location, as in XYZ or GPS/Altitude coordinates. Or is it both (sorta?): A new landing-location, but the "earth" you land on this time has a new environment (so that when you go to the "old" locations they look different)?

From the explanation, it sounds like it technically behaves like a totally different playspace, but covers the same in-universe ground as the old Cosmodrome (plus new areas). They also suggest that the old Cosmodrome pallet will still exist for the original missions.

What's curious is the "permanent time movement" thing. Will the old Cosmodrome Patrol stop existing when your character enters Riron, and the Plaguelands fully replaces it? It's not clear though, because they say "it's separate" but also that you'll be able to go back to previous areas with the changes. Partial geometric overlap with both playspaces available from the director? Hmm...
