just need to work out who to bet on tbh, with the draw now done, it could see some interested quater finals to mess up predicitons... also im low od nic and really really want to buy a gropho mk2 seeing as no nice person will buy build for me and let me buy it

i want pictures of destoryers, hehe

i believe it, im at 536,640 + 35,509 EP

lol what ep count??

this has been talked about long long long ago back in the beta. Because a purely pvp bonus mixed in with cycle time mismatching because of extensions/tunings means shield is stupid/impractical in most setups on it was ignored.

This is because as a gropho is basically a larger waspish its natural bonus should be a range bonus. This is seen as OP on the gropho and any other bonus would equally be pretty much useless so it was just left alone.

Still i feel its a uttter waste of bonus space and would prefer a nerfed 2-3% to missile range on it instead of the 5%/ext.lvl

Either way i dont think anything is going to be done about it, atleast anytime soon ALF has his spreadsheets of numbers that he won't adjust unless he has to and thats what we have to accept.

Yes go us Founding Agents and our 570K~ ep lol. Just sad i missed alot of game time due to illness been a crap year for me ...[notes going back to hospital on the 24th] so i havent had the chance to unlock all the t4's i  should of by now >_<... guess i should join a real corp now and leave my solo corp lol.

Edit : Also I hope ALF will be ready to let those destoryers and the hybrid bot system out of balance testing sometime soon, Also just as a side note a HD texture client would be epic still lol.

ok so its decided then then that haulers are fine as they are.

hmm i feel the storyline thing might be a half truth. The way I have seen things after reading the site like a year ago or whenever it was, We are here to get a foothold and secure the inital area ready for the tech to be put in place for us to get ready for the next phase, the transfer of energy.

As such i dont see how any storyline can be put in that wouldnt then need features to go along with that. something i see as more of a annual/6-month update feature with leaps in the plotline and feature associated with it being put in place.

tbh i think its just something that could be specific to that guys system. As i run 2 clients, and the only problems i have ever run into was a deployment issue way back at LIVE launch day, but CRM and I sorted that out in some unconventional way and it hasnt reoccured.

This is why i asked about the anti-virus, there may also be another thing causing it, otherwise i would of expected many more posts on this from people.;

Well all things being equally i shoould have all my work finally sorted tomorrow and can get back in game and test all this out, rather then just seeing the fallout on the forums like i have for the past 2 weeks. Seems that people are a bit all over theplace when it comes to how this should be handled but for one thing i know i wouldnt want free accounts being able to horde up light bots to trade/sell into the main economy. But also that i dont feel its fair to gimp peoples starting postion in a way that the first thing they experience is a horrible rep grind, putting them off doing anything else or completing there trial for that matter.

But its hard to find some sort of balance without a few more changes like :
- keep the training missions as they were but make the modules nonsellable, along with the lightbots that you get.  This would mean you are still handing out 5-600k in stuff but it has on NIC value it is only good for generating more NIC/rep/gameplay. This keeps training mission rewards out of the economy and production cycle, without nerfing the use of the rewards to real players, only those that would want to profiteer[farms/multi-accounts]

-Will try to think of more later lol

still its funny when you have a 5k armor arkhe/mk2
