Of Course Speeds are WAY off..

What Jita is spouting is the OPPOSITE of what he was saying when HE Was getting his *** kicked in.

These Heavys, AND mechs need to be nerfed in speed, like I dont know, months ago?

Couple this with highways everywhere....just clueless of what is happening.

Or, you know.

People dont play.  So why play with a mech that does nothing, in a game we dont play?

I personally can buy it now, I can buy more then one, but why?

Who is going to oogle over my big black mech?
Who is going to try to kill the unstoppable black mech?  Beast?  Just beast?

Moving on.  Good Luck!

Clearly that's the problem.

We should spend some time fixing this, you know a full Dev cycle of a year or so?

Then we can have several patches to make it better and fix the bugs, in a span of 3 week intervals.

http://MassivelyOP.com might be a good site to start. They have very loyal followers who have AdBlock disabled.

You can also launch a community funded ad budget to help cover the costs in exchange for titles and ***.
Reinstate the *** referral program.
Create Perpetuum banners for the players to use on other forums as signatures.

Scrap this T5 nonsense as it adds nothing to the game and is a waste of your time. We have enough tiers already. Work on additional bots instead and spend some time learning how your game works.


While a agree, but harshly disagree.

So in this style of game we just have that one competitor that is sweeping up all the potential subs. 

What does this game have on everything else in the market?

Graphics. Na.

People atmosphere.  Passable, but leaning to ***.

Gameplay.  Equal terms with others.

PVE.  Good, and getting better.

Group PVE.  Terrible.

PVP.  Ok, needs a look at balance.

Group PVP.  Game Pop Too low to tell as per balance.



So where are we at?  The million dollar question, how do you get more people playing a game that just doesn't have it "right now".

Well that answer comes down to money, and it has to be flowing in my direction to get a solid answer.

Posting forum topics on a games forums constitutes at marketing?

Might want to rethink your strategies.

This is golden. Just wait for the time when we will be swimming with black bots only due to the circumvention of the industry process. This not only breaks the immersion but leaves the door wide open for other kind of abuse.

Gathering and production just out the window, pretty much 50% of the game.


Can you stop with the doom and gloom *** and make good on your promise to move on?

Quick all of the 23 people playing the game better listen.

Don't change anything.

Zoom your doing great.

We have a working example of why this doesn't work, in a AAA title.

If they wish to ignore it, meh.  Don't really care anymore.

What does this mean? Also your mission payout is wrong. I don't think you have a clue what you are talking about.

Sure my pay out is wrong, as its a average.

A average nic amount, this COULD BE higher OR lower.

So if they dont know about it, it must be ok?  I don't need another *** human to tell me that DUPING items is wrong.  That GAMING insurance is wrong.  I shouldn't need someone to tell me, that completely breaking the mission system, and exploiting the *** out of beacons is wrong.

No wonder our side did so much of it, I was pulled in as well. 

So if I didn't cheat enough its my problem?  Thats *** up bro.

Once again please understand, the developers knew it was going on.  They knew.  Therefore it's not an exploit or a cheat.

Uh. No.

Still cheating, still exploiting, still gaming the system.

I made a post about how the mission system was crashing the economy and everyone from people in my own corp to Zoom and Anni and a lot of other people said it was fine and it wasn't causing a problem. Now we can talk about people like Ville who quite openly said he had made so much money abusing this doing harvesting missions he wasn't even bothering any more or try and fix it.

Now after even more posts Zoom is talking about nerfing mission income to 1/10th of its current value and all this is going to do is the same kind of knee jerk rubbish that happened with the removal of red bots and explosion damage. It's idiotic and he is too blind not only to see the damage is already done but how much this change is going to murder a mission system that is actually kinda fun and a token shop that would be very useful.

Sometimes I could just *** scream.

True story I only did the harvesting missions solo due to large amount of resources needed in the squad.  I had no idea you can chain combats till you told me.  I literally made 1.2 billion Nic 2.5 to 6 million at a time.  It wasn't until you told me about combat missions that I tried them.  But still we use 4 to 6 guys, so our payouts are like 9 million.  And I got burned out from harvesting missions.

True story.

I only ran massive amounts of beacons to watch the pretty explosions.  It had nothing to do with the massive amounts of nic, and assets I got.  I didn't even want them, they were just thrust upon me. 

I'm the victim here, please feel some pity for me. Please I beg of you.

The same reason the markets are completely *** right now.

Wait, Insurance thing never happened right?

The precedent is already in the game.  Stuff was already pulled and said no no you cant do that.

Now we have a system that fully encourages cheating, finding the loop holes and running with them till as far as you want.

You want this game to get more players, deal with the problem.

You want the game to stay with the current population.  Do ***.

Whats *** up, is all the cheaters here trying to push off, "no no it was all a game mechanic".

Duping was done IN GAME, so I guess its technically a game mechanic.

This is some *** up logic bro.

So if they dont know about it, it must be ok?  I don't need another *** human to tell me that DUPING items is wrong.  That GAMING insurance is wrong.  I shouldn't need someone to tell me, that completely breaking the mission system, and exploiting the *** out of beacons is wrong.

Oh also.

Teamwork is a great thing too.  I highly suggest it.

100K / 310 = 332.5 Missions to Complete.

332.5 / 10 = 32.5 Missions to Complete = 1 Spechial Bot.

332.5 x 10Mill (average) = 3.325 Bill - 5 Bill = 1.675 Bill Short Fall Requires 167.5 More Missions.

So we could be looking at a team of good close knit players getting these things at a rate of 1ish, or 2ish per day.

So lets say a max of 15 per month, with some down time ect ect.

There's no cheating or exploiting.  The developers clearly knew it was happening.  Also it funded massive gamma terraforming projects and bases along with ICE.  Which was bought during the subscription model.  The assets your fretting over have long been cycled through or used.

No this was cheating, and exploiting.

I was wondering when you would try the, "It was good for the game." card.

This speaks volumes of where your mindset is at.  All of the things your have stated are nothing more then a license to cheat more. 
A very small amount of these assets have been cycled through, as per the *** markets.

Anni (one), run the numbers on what a max extended Seth, Mes, and gropho range numbers are?

20% is quite a boost.  As in game breaking possibly?!
