Wont' putting too many beacons down at one time cause the explosion damage to occasionlly blowup the loot containers?

No, loot containers have been invulnerable for a while now, for exactly this reason. (Not beacons, but simply farming NPCs over the same area.)

Yep. Back in the day, that is what stopped us from doing a large number at a time, so I can see how it could now be getting out of hand. Well, that and having to activate them all around the same time. Probably some scripting going on with arkhes in order to start 20 beacons that need 2-3 bots clicking on it at the same time.

Yet again that completely overboard....no one is doing more then 4 or 5 at a time.

Oh but I thought the reason would be obvious: popping ~50 beacons in a minute using explosion damage chaining is simply a method that was never intended for beacon farming. The income over time is much more than what would be normally possible. How else would you balance this without hurting single beacons?

I think that's a bit over exaggerated, no one is doing 50 beacons at a time to much crazy lag. It's more like 4 or 5 at a time, but hey what do I know since I play this game.

I think it's a dumb change, and you will hurt your community if you do it. There is no reason to make this change other then to piss people off, if that is what your goal is you will succeed.

Not a balance issue because everyone can do them now, if it's a NIC thing then look into that.

Reason I am saying this is people use beacons for research, recyclables fragments etc.. not just for plasma.

Basically find a better way.

Wow Anni, you still have the batphone? big_smile

That's what the next patch will do actually, extend the 500m single deploy radius rule to all islands. I'm not sure why we only had this rule on Alpha islands so far.


Zoom that's only on teleport beacons, not distress beacons.

There has never been a minimum radius range to deploy distress beacon from each other even on Alpha....

Use to do these with Morte near Tellesis Terminal for an example back in March of 2012, also did this a number of times on new Virgina near Cardavria outpost and Hershfield as well.

So if I paid you 40 million I can have a terminal on your island?

Oh yeah, instead of putting them in quarantine to prevent any more damage you want them to continue running havoc.

Most of you are pathetic whiners. Whine about every single thing. Lately I only read whines on the forums.

So bad.

can you be more specific "Most of you are pathetic whiners".

What is Eve?


go away.

So next time I see a combat wreck with humongous quantities of boosters I'll just tell myself all is as expected and not worthy of investigation.

No, see relevant part from my post:

"Yes, we could ban the individual for using the exploit, without trying to set it right what he did, but for this we would need a suspect."

Translation.....

Get a screen shoot *** or it didn't happen

*edit: Offensive. - DEV Zoom

Zoom you do know that the person(s) that reported this exploit probably found it in the first place and used it, not in the means of your logging....which is sad.

but I think you should not have told these people of your limitations, because now they will exploit that.

Bandwagon: I'm sorry, how are you involved in this issue?

Given there's been plenty of people exploiting things left and right and directly and indirectly getting benefited by said exploits, those of us who have not stooped down to exploiting the game are in a worse position that those that have.


if is so bad then go back to the rock you were hiding under for a year.

Time is to short you can't visibly see the shield are down before they go back up, this is what needs to be changed because it give an unfair advantage over other bots.

please increase the time in which someone can turn shield off and back on by additional 10 sec's.

Matter of fact I have heard that people can undock while over on cpu and or reactor..Zoom should look into that exploit as well.

or people using isoboxer programs.
