I like it...any other thoughts either pro or con? 

LOL me thinks you answered that question with your question.      Possibly due to the fact that Kyp may have to work as well during the week? 

Roger that, so you will need to think up things that are your country specific.  I know a lot but unfortunately not everything.  

It's almost summer here in the States...time to mow that jungle we told the wife or significant other or mother that it is the latest in being green let the lawn go to seed for a greener lawn next year.  Or, dig out that old favorite game.  Go on a picnic, sit outside and read a book, volunteer to fill sand bags for the flooded areas. Tons and tons of stuff to do.   

Ya think?

Time chk-down 4:30 Central

OVERDRIVE PRO™ 3G/4G MOBILE HOTSPOT 4G on the fly. Connect your tablet, laptop and other wireless devices with this 3G or 4G dual-mode device.   I was charging it last week via the USB on my computer,  I think that I had dueling routers going on. One took the send the other took the receive. Pretty cool if you think about it but played havoc on game time. 

  Let's just say I found the issue.............

did you... with it installed see any other controls show up ...sort of like the launch a satellite or garbage mission?  Possibly activate it while the essence is showing in the loot window? or...activate it on a live manes? It has been a long time but I remember farming the higher essence way back when.

If possible could a dev log into my account and fly one or both of my chars? I have described everything I could and tried everything that I could at this end to solve this mystery.

Screen resolution changed from full screen... 1920 x 1080 (looks good to me...don't be a hater) to 1280 x 960 with no change in the weird Always head to the 7:00 position.  I even tried to gate to a different sector with the same results.     At a loss as to what could be the issue............. 

OK, REMOVED all nonessential processes (thinking some weird MS update slipped in) and still getting the "set free warp path" See picture.  Not sure what else to try short of re sizing my screen from full screen to windowed mode.   I point the ship via right mouse to point the ship.  I click warp and the ship gets turned to the direction shown.     Note: getting this same path on the PS and PW.  Could it be some file not getting written to or deleted due to access rights?      

Disabled MSE, removed a few TSRs, will disable all but the essentials.  And be back here shortly.

PW doing it as well so pretty sure it is on my side, as others are not having the same issues.     Will let you know

Thanks for the reply, but I am still not able to point in any direction and hit warp to go in that direction.  What happens is it seems to select a random direction in one of the 12-3-6-9 directions to warp to.  I have tried to select a target warp to it, cancel the target (IE a planet) and then free warp ALL with no joy.   Also I still am having the problem of getting to an ore by driving to it within a 0.0 distance, unable to pull it.  I hit warp with the ore still selected and I see the rubber band issue.  (Snap back to where I was warp to the ore, and then able to pull it.   If I have settings set incorrectly (Screen size or launcher settings) I am willing to try anything at this point to get back on track.   I'll check the PW to see if it can free warp.

This started this morning.  I can't seem to drive to a mission ore but need to warp to it...  Even though the distance shows 0.0, I am unable to pull it.  I then hit warp and the ship pops back to where it was before I motored to the ore and then goes to it.  Needless to say this is playing havoc on my reactor.   Speaking of reactor, my Vulture Mk VIII does not seem to maintain charge as it did.  Pulling 8-9 ores seems to drain it more than I remember.      I have also noticed over the last week or so, some flaky warps, for example I hit warp, the ship does a 180 then warps to the nav, even though by the mini map I am pointed directly at it. 

You were warned.  

Hey All, for those of you (like me) that has been wanting to donate only to find that the total has been capped as soon as it had been open...Now is our chance.  Pop a few bucks in the kitty...you will feel better and I am sure it will be appreciated.   But be quick as it is filling up fast. :)      

I guess the reason I did a "Ohhh nooo not this damn discussion again" was that (a.) It will never get resolved, (b.) there are some of us that see it as a real issue, and (c). there are the posters that think it is just fine and dandy the way it is.  If anyone has the time do a look at the prior discussions.  This IS like deja vu all over again.   The new twist for me was the "I'm playing the game the way I want so lump it" post...  Sadly that attitude prevents me from playing the game the way I want to. I surely don't want a Hello Kitty style game where everyone wins, but I would like a fair shake.  Not too much to ask for when you think about it.   

I was happy ...REALLY I knew I was never going to get any of the good stuff from hulks, and the random AA device I got I snapped up before the dude or dudette got completely in game.  So noooo someone had to pick the scab again, got me all riled up.  The issue is even WITH a re-spawn we who don't sit at the spawn points and either wait...(MY God I have a life) or post an alt at the spawn point never get anything but the crumbs.  EVEN WITH the re-spawn of the fields.     So the answer is to compete for the choice drops you MUST create a character that will only be a "choice looter" pop that bad boy in place, wait for the spawn...jot down the time and place, try to pull something before the other guy, log off and return a few minutes before the spawn occurs.  I guess this is fair.  Personally I won't do it but others might.   Let me know how it goes for you.

The question remains...how can I get to a node first (if what you say is true and they re-spawn at a set interval) and someone has his/her toon parked there? By this logic I will NEVER get there first, I will ALWAYS get the leavins. Now if there was a fair chance that said player did other things other than sit there wait for the re-spawn and rape the node, then we the "cherry picker" whiners would happily go off to find something else to whine about.   We just might have a fair chance to get some of the good stuff.  I know...I should let those play the way they want and shut up...but this is the way I want to play...so you shut up. ;)

I can't speak for the iPhone or any Android phone for that matter.  The Android device I have been using has a 10.1 inch screen.  I think there are many issues remaining but. as I said it should allow one to play the game in a limited fashion on a tablet sized device.  .   

As I stated in another post...this is an old topic that can and never will be resolved.  I think cherry pickers are Ass hats, others think hey are playing the way THEY want so i should shut the F up.  Had I cherry picked before this? No...call me what you will, but I did not, Do I cherry pick now? You betcha, unfortunately all I seem to "cherry pick" lately is the trash left behind. ;) 

I think it is more of a ...If you have a toon sitting in a field for the timed re-spawn of the goods, you pull ALL the good stuff and leave the crap over and over and over...isn't that much like what the guilds were fighting over? One group had / has a monopoly on a boss, nothing is left for the other guilds...by your logic...Awww too friggin bad...Sitting in a field and not having to travel, not having to do anything but log in at the exact spot, pull the goods and log off.  Puts you at an advantage that is not fair to other players... Oh wait you claimed it, "I am here it's MINE ALL MINE"......we should stop our whining and let you play the game how YOU want to...we should just buck it up..

I think that with the use of multi boxing and virtually no limit to the number of characters one can have makes the "cherry picking" more of an issue.   The game costs nothing...having a character that sits in a hulk/asteroid field for the sole purpose of "cherry picking" the best items, log off , log on the next character do the same, for every good field they have found.  Even though the player is most likely really sitting at his/her computer (possibly not ...this could be automated and bots) I don't get it.  But as long as it is not against the rules we have to live with it.      In EA live even though it was not against the "rules" it was not as big an issue as it would cost real money for every character played (sort of kept multi-multi-multi characters to a minimum) just to place a character in one spot for the purpose to pull the best from hulks/asteroids,     As for Krellis's comment "The other thing I've noticed as I catch up, is that some people in the forums are real quick to dismiss anything that doesn't fit into their view of EnB, or if they feel it's been discussed before. Don't take it personal. It's just the way they are."  is mostly true but seriously how many times do I have to get mad about this topic?  I think you will find that MANY miners object to the "cherry pickers" but what can be done about it?    Oh and I bet if there could be something done as the random location of fields, you would see the incidence of cherry picking complaints dwindle.  We would all have a fair shot to get to those fields. the pickers would still pick but not use a character just for picking.
