  1. I think it's right here isnt' it... https://enb-emulator.com/index.php?/topic/1486-websvn-fix-for-missions-not-advancing-correctly-added-first-draft/
  2. Faction farming works, why are we testing it again? Farming of paramis drones has been done to death without issue, so mob respawning, that's also covered and works. Gate faction: ok that works too. Faction display and retention? Not working correctly in all cases, let's fix that before enforcing area faction rules? Putting 200 players in the fishbowl with infinite HP and ammo against 200 mobs - that would be stressful. Having people shoot chavez and progens won't stress anything. You'll get a handful of players per spawn point, and the rest will say screw it and go work on wife faction instead given this is a non-live "why am I time sinking in a p-wipe stage" game. Edit: Just as a side-note, maybe this gate change wasn't intended, and we are all getting our knickers in knots over a mistaken change. Patch notes or something would be good to cut out speculation of intended/not, but that's already been discussed to death without going anywhere.
  3. Bumping mob difficulty and then gating off the sector with 85% of these mobs doesn't make any sense if the intention was to test boss mob AI. What little end-game was in place to test is now basically blocked. Right now all this change does is create a faction-grind stress test and chavez camping for the next week or two. Bump up faction gains by 100x, get some stats, then divide that by 100 to get info on grinding duration if that's what the goal was. I don't know why else that gate faction enforcement would have been implemented as it is nothing more than a time sink. It obviously works, due to this thread, so we can turn it off now and go test raid content and group content.
  4. Yeah for more elitism! Less QQing about community and speaking like the community is never going to be back on some fictitious nostalgic pedastal, more being nice to people in game and letting actions speak louder than words.
  5. A 200% CFB now has around 4.94 recharge shield skill. Very nice for PP and my TT is uber jealous! I'd settle for a lvl 8 guardian, or even a 7
  6. I didn't put a point into it, but just given the wipe that will come at some point, it's hard to justify spending the time on grinding it right now. Thre's nothing in bbw/paramis that I need anyways. Raid content with depth would be worth it though, would love to need a dozen or so people in there to kill something, even if the loot was useless. I think that sort of AI is still a ways off though. Accelerating faction for testing purposes would be ok.
  7. http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Mijin_Gakure Squeenix also failed to implement it properly. It's used purely as a 2-hour hearthstone/recall/teleport in that game as well. If 1 missile does like 6000 damage, a ship filled with tens of thousands of bullets should well... you do the math. Having all ammo on your person/cargo explode would be epic, although also epic as a group kill stealing move
  8. So who is going to guinea pig faction grinding to see if it sticks properly after a crash/reboot/content push/etc? (looks at -9072... thinks about p-wipe...)
  9. That information is flat out wrong. There was no auto-reg in live, as JD frequently ran lvl 7 summon trade runs, people would dock in antares and get summoned to net-7, etc. SD also shouldn't incap your ship. Worhmole did damage trade goods but TT negotiate goup bonuses compensated for the loss, which is why TT/JE + others would do trade runs together. Currently the TT bonus is broken and a TL 50 toon without negotiate gets 0 xp from a wormhole fenris run.

    I'm getting a "login information not accepted" chirp from Megan. Noticed other bugs as well... unrelated.
  11. Eh... a Terran tries to make some profits and people get all bent out of shape. I feel like I need to quote Andrew Ryan in here somewhere, something about the sweat of a man's brow. The BBW drones are much more profitable than the Paramis ones due to prototype loot + more comp drops. I'm curious if the free build mentality will carry into live. I gave a bunch of these to guildies for nothing or friends for next to nothing, but that's different than supplying people who couldn't be bothered to invest the time to do the quests.
  12. I don't wonder. Feeding a shield that took let's say 25 hours of questing to obtain to a terminal with a 41% success rate to analyze = madness. A schematic = 100x better. Btw, trying to make a 200% lvl 9 item with 4 pm only comps, and 2 non-manu comps isn't cheap. (50 mil is not an issue to anyone who can use the shield, one hour of work max - Cash is 100% useless anyways at "end-game").
  13. Hmm I got the CFB before CL50 on my PW (old quest) unless that is something you changed. You defnitely need the medal in your cargo, I had it in my vault originally and it didn't trigger. Swapped it out and it worked fine. (Wts: 200% CFB 50 mil, pst)
  14. Weapon print = something neat that isn't already in the game? (Archos/Bile/Longbow drop like candy).
  15. This topic is about keeping a server clean from abuse, not a whine thread. The OP could care less about having one, nor do I really care about having one. It's important to get this stuff sorted out before the game goes live. Doesn't matter if it was a Hellbore or a Grek Cranium, it's a discussion about the enforcement/ethics pertaining to what the GM's are doing. As explicitly stated above, by staff, GM's should not be creating items in this manner. If you disagree with that then propose a new net-7 user agreement.
  16. Griping about the state of the community and deleting your toons doesn't make it better. Make an effort to be a positive/respectful/helpful player, and hope people will follow suit if that's what you want. If someone gets under your skin, ignore them or report a TOS violation if that's what happened. I don't see the current community radically different from what I remember 7 years or whenever ago, nor is it much different than any other online game that I've ever played. I think people have some nostalgic memory of teddy bears, sunshine, and rainbows, which if anyone has old forum logs from live, couldn't be farther from the truth.
  17. Without knowing the objectives defined by the development team on what is to be accomplished in this phase and what is considered a success, it's purely speculation. From a stability standpoint, there seems to be more "oopsies" on the current box than there were in ST3 on the backup server. Whether that's code/hardware/network/user error, no idea. (didn't vote)
  18. Rules like this don't exist to spoil people's fun, but to keep the game balanced and fair for everyone. GM's should be an invisible presence of assistance and enforcement, not Easter Bunnies. If you didn't get an item/credits/experience/faction from intended game mechanics, then odds are good that there is a TOS violation somewhere in there. 2 days before a p-wipe, sure, go nuts with the games, but suggesting that stuff like this continues in live invalidates any legitimate work done by players playing the game "as intended".
  19. And the RD base was removed from the game for adjustments about 2-3 weeks ago. These are fresh. I don't know what GM made them, but they were made today and given to two or more players for doing some sort of side-game.

  21. This seems so pointless given you can solo kite anything with lvl 8 guns (takes a while). Everything just gets deleted down the road anyways and all this gifting does is invalidate any sort of stats they are trying to generate about players.
  22. In live yes, but the 30% dmg + plasma debuff are epic in the current iteration of the game /back-on-topic
  23. The base is on a 2 hour timer, and wasn't in game at the time that the no shield bug happened.
