if u think that u wrong here.....
back to wo_w or wait for ri_ft.....

risc vs reward

and sandbox empirebuilding

that is the wood dev carved the PO game from

the PO world will grow and i stong hope that alpha sheep islands dont grow.....

as a little place to learn the basics its big enought

and all  PVE love the game need is at the same time PVP love because it will attract people to beta gamma delta islands

PvE and PvP are directly linked in a sandbox and u cant have high end PvE without the risc of PvP

PvE spawns are just another resource u need to protect and controll with ur PvP forces

thats the way how sandbox games work

i guess u both are brother and sister

same genetic material......

enjoyed to read the stories

hungry for more.......

well spend 8 euro of the E V E PR-department for just post this topic in news forum....

@mod plz delete or move at least to Q&A

mech value is around 3 million anyway
just the marketprices didnt drop that far already
but even now u can buy some below 4 mill

so dont tell 7 mill fairy tales........

light bot counter ewar bot if they nearly same speed

i suggest skill matters so just give light bots like 1.5 kmh more speed each rank in basic robotics

assault counter light mechs if they have superior range

i suggest skill matters give assault bots 5% more locking range and 2% more optimal weapon range for each point in basic robotics

light kill ewar
assault kill light

ewar kill nothing direct but are very valuable support for other bots/mechs to kill stuff

that would be my balancing attempt

even if hurt us (infestation) most
i would be sure whereever game mechanics get changed
we are the first who adapt and still the best on battlefield

as long as rules are same for u and us we will beat u

we would just roam ur islands with ewar/light mixed forces and still beat u

beside maybe the defending assault we able to just avoid because we still have superior speed

ur first sentece gave urself the answer

ALPHA......

u can PvE on BETA against mechs with mechs and make good profit selling moduls on alpha market

moduls selling like 150-600k each even if just standard modules

so what u need to do is following the risc vs reward path

wana risc nothing farm bugs on aplha

or play with mechs on beta and risc something

i guess its more establish our own system........

anarchy is a illusion

destruction of a system
is just the first step of implementing a new system

basical the whole code system is a fail

if u kill the dude who is owner of container it should be accessable by anyone

if DEVs wana make sure u dont be able loot everything to keep it as a moneysink than just make it possible to shoot the container and when he explode u able to loot like 20% of the stuff that was inside

this code container system same as to much to long save zones around outpost and teleporters

and meaningless outpost ownership since u not even able forbid enemies to enter the station u own

this all are flaws in a PvP game

and i hope they will fix them step by step

3 sheep islands are enought

i vote for ban sheep game mechanics from beta islands

or at least implement some delta islands with harsher pvp game mechanics

so we can leave beta islands with carebear game mechanics for the carebears

and move to the lands of real pvp on delta islands

the place where we forge man out of boys

and show then everyone who try to enter it why it was a bad idea even to look a the teleporter and consider going throught as a possible thing without getting punished....

and BTW remove arkh from any non alpha island

make sure u can only respawn in ur homebase if u have a bot there
and if u have no bot left

u respawn at alpha island with a arkh

we dont need that carebear scout game emchanics on our PvP lands

wana scout

risc something

or stay in sheepland and risc nothing

thats sounds interesting drop a weapon/armor plate or whatever to speed u up

and leave the crowd behind u lose additional time pick up the container

would be logical if speed is reduced because the additional modules leave less energy for movement

but is not logical if game mechanic try to tell us its because of weight

but afaik there was somehow explained that cargo  is nor a real playe in ur robot but a dataspace where the data of the stuff u teleport into ur cargo bay is stored

and one ur unload it u teleport it out of this dataspace back into real world

this would explain why cargo have no weight

because u dont carry the stuff

u just uploaded the stuff into ur teleporter cargo bay

and bigger bots have a larger dataspace to upload more information = more volume data
