  1. Don't confuse Jobs and Missions - it almost sounds like you'd want a mission set up more like a job (dump trash, earn x amount of xp, x credits and x faction)

    Missions are really for storyline development and to get you into the game world and setting. They should make the characters stand out and be more realistic (as much as they can in a futuristic game anyway) The dialogue should get you into the developments going on in the game, and perhaps mention something you wouldn't know otherwise. (maybe even not mission related) Maybe an NPC mentions a place you haven't been, or a fact that something is going on in an area which you might want to investigate, or even a whole new (sub)plot line for your race, class or just a particular NPC character.

    Being able to quickly click through all the chat options and be able to complete the mission by your mission log is, in my opinion, the wrong way to go about it, and completely misses the point. Missions are optional except for HU's and skill ones, so really if you want simplicity and ease, you cold concentrate on jobs more. As you may be able to tell, I love missions. (Except an annoying one where I've got to level like 30 levels to kill the mob needed after easily killing the previous one :))

  2. I managed to check the fourms with IE7, and saw the same issues as others have reported. Now I no longer see them, so CDel's fix should do it. If not I have also heard turning compatibility mode off works too as Grendwal noted. I waited until I was pretty sure everything was fixed, so I wouldn't be making this thread worse for those who were having problems. Thanks for your patience!

  3. Welcome to our new Mission Discussion area!

    Please note that this area is not for:

    -Mission Bugs

    -Race or Class specific missions (They should be discussed under the proper race sub forum)

    Please also use the [ spoiler] option when possible. This will prevent people who have yet completed or obtained a mission from accidentally seeing details they want to discover on their own.

    Example:

    When you arrive at the nav Alpha

    you'll be jumped by 20 red dragons! However, use your x-ray glasses then they'll like you <_<

    So discuss missions,comment on aspects of various missions, and help those who may turn to the forums for help. Maybe you'll even mention an idea that a developer would like to use.

  4. Currently when I see bugs reported by players are resolved I close them. Many times there will be a back and forth about what was done and how it worked out. If a topic is still open, it is either because nobody has examined, it is being examined, or if it was fixed, no follow up was posted. I may look into moving all closed threads down to the bottom of the area so the first thing seen are open threads.

  5. No need for a new thread when the server goes down. Posting in the Server Status thread (pinned at the top of General) will be enough, and many times Devs will post there about what happened. Occasionally no Dev is able to restart or debug the server for a while for various reasons.
