Big +1 here Merkle.

I think the ballance needs to be closer to "PvP only" ammo instead of the current "special occasions only PvP" ammo.

Now, you may say that you are able to acquire enough to PvP with but lets face it, with current game pop you are fighting much less then you would be otherwise.

It should be expensive enough it can't be used for farming but affordable enough to be used most of the time in PvP.

I think this is a great idea.

I don't think you understand ICE/PleX.

"but is not the montly fee here so that the devs earn money for theyr work"

With an ICE solution the same number of subs (and maybe even more) are bought from the devs. They receive the same amount of money. Its just some of them are sold on the market to endgame players who would rather grind to pay for their sub. But someone is always buying the sub, they do not come out of thin air.

If no one wants to buy a sub, you can't make money from ICE.

Anyways, I only have one account subbed at the moment and If we had an ICE system I would likely sub at least one-two more (at no cost to me yet bringing the Devs more money)

The player selling the subscription in return gets the NIC the endgame person grinded. This helps out new players / players that don't want to grind / players that need an initial lump sum to do things with the market etc. Its good for the economy and good for the game. Really there are no losers when it comes to Plex.

Here is $10 towards a good cause. I believe it is a good cause considering the circumstances and the modest goal.

Seek professional help my friend.

What do you suggest we do about the buildings on hersh that you are able to walk through?

Yep... We need to find a balance between the two.

Defensive detection potential does not diminish as much, but offensive detecting potential factors in both travel time and detection strength. Travel time is directly correlated to the amount of weight you add on to your bot.

Zoom, here is a scenario of why even defensive detection with guns equipped is bad.

M2S and friends came to Nova, it was my job to get eyes on their main fleet. I was all the way north and got eyes on them in the northeast most teleport.

They must have seen me too, because MoBIoS in a Troiar Mk2 and a castel Mk2 detector were dispatched to tackle and kill me. Had I been fit with guns, I surely would have died. But luckily I was not and I was able to outrun them. They gave up and I continued to apply my detector to their group.

I really have to disagree with your statement that fitting guns does not affect their detection potential. While this is true on paper only looking at your signal strength, in practice this falls flat on its face. I would know, I have a dedicated detector account with over 500K EP spent on being the ultimate scout bot.

Yes but you can get all that stuff on alpha...

This change would not affect players now because there are not enough to hit the regeneration. This would simply bring the high end ore resources in line with the other high end resources in terms of limitations.

Any dev care to comment? Or is the reason for no comment the fact that light bots are not designed at all?
