How arena will fit in the background story?

Alex, you described a certain case what must be reviewed on another topic or chat. Now i'm trying to describe situation in a whole and propose solution. I dont want to have troll wars here, but i want to share thoughts. For now i see some disbalance in noralgis lifecycle: long refresh period, and easy to kill farm. I'm not talking about +100500 armor bonus, i'm talking about small armor bonus what will help to earn some time for defenders. Just a balance fix, not big change.

3km? Hell nice) I foreseen new scouting era)

Ливай...

I like roaming NPC groups. They brings dynamic in stupid life of NPCs. Agreed that they need some fixes.

I want to see much more from PvE system in PO. First of all: in sandbox world PvE environment must be sandboxed too.

Mostly i don't like farming current farming style. Now farming is boring, because it is stupid: you take your *** and maybe few your friends and move to the farming spot. In the best traditions of rambo you killing endless waves of the mobs on farming spot. Wait... nians have  much more advantage in technological knowlege base and war equipment. Why they periodically sending their troops to the same spots in large numbers? What nians doing at this spots, except of stupid walk from one point to another? This is nians, they have advanced AI. The can do what agents can, even much more. Instead they teleporting to our claimed insland in suicide style. Observers are awesome npc, but they are looks like rare exceptions of standard mmo mob system. We are playing non standard game now, so we can expect non standard approaches to almost dogmatic mmo traditions.
Im expect next:

• Absolutelly new approach to farm, like smart mobs groups and random spots. Sandboxed environment deciding ammount and location of the next location, to teleport nians squad

• PvE events: nians can easily teleport large number of troops to random location, to capture outpost, to gather resources or to disrupt daily player operations. For example sandbox AI aproximated that at 01:22 there will be no miners at domhalarn epriton field, so at this time large group of builders and warriors teleporting to that spot to gather valuable ore. They gathering ore for few hours and teleporting out. Players can disrupt their operation, and gather something valuable from them.

• Also i have thoughts about complicated AI, what have resourse base, production and important goal like disrupt human operations in NIA. But i think this is really complicated *** to develop, because this idea require tonns of human hours for developing.

• And at last im expecting much more interesting mission system, like dynamic missions (you need to destroy nian base, what they are built yesterday) and global mission context, what assuming that each mission, even smallest t1, somehow changing syndicate business. For example: if players done 100500 recon task on Nuimquol forces, Nuimquol union will send their troops more often. Or when players will deliver 1024 cosole from tma to tmb, then syndicate will set up something juicy on the market. We can expect wonderfull corporation actions, like planned NIAns op attack, or increased defence around stermonit because of disrupting telodica manufacturing operations

• No instances. This is sandbox.

So the main idea of my TLRD is: each agent move changing world: each kill, each mission, each buy order somehow changing state of the game. Players will know that their action changing PO world. And players must feel that NIAns are much organised that stupid mobs what we can see now. This will be really awesome and fantasic.

Yes im reading it. I can say more, im support "Coyote rumors" because of dramma, popcorn and else I think it someway support life in PO community. Thats why i took it as an example. But... I think for readers it will be more comfortable when rumors will be in blog format with rss subscription for instance. "Rumors" in forum format is something hard to read. For example its dont comfortable to use forum search each time when i want to read old post or see the list of "rumor" topics. Or i want to see all rumors tagged with "trolling" for example.

Go back to your trollCapital, drink cofee, and think how blogs will help to keep clean PO forums from garbage  like "coyote weekly rumors" or "perpetuum guide #123" or else.

Its working

Too complicated, i think.
I'd like to add only interference/sensor tooltip to interference bar. This is most useful thing in large combat. Other parameters like crit chance, agent names, max targets is much static than dynamic parameters like hp\ap\int(erferecne). You can remember them easily.

In robot status i think must be only most dynamic and most important parameters, which value you need to know very often during combat. Other static parameters will disrupt you during combat. But i like idea about odometer, killdeath ratio and others, and i think they should be in the separate window.

I think DEVs must comment their important balance changes. Too many thoughts, and probably no one with the main reason.
