simply - the game is set up this way, the majority of the remaining playerbase wants it that way, and DEVs said players will do it because the can and nothing on their side will change that.

There is your answer... and if any nexus ever goes to manual cycle I quit and so does every other multi-account  pilot in the game. Hunter your post rate for good ideas is below 50% as of late.

Re: Fix the follow bots

its actually 90% playing around with numbers, and 10% coding to make the game multiplayer instead of multiboxing.

the aproach command is the least important factor in that!

just a little hint - demob, ewar, RSA or NEXUS:
-> no line of sight,
-> no meaningfull micromanagement
-> no twitch
-> lots of EP necessary that doesnt have any synergy for single player
=
followbot alt account.

those factors can be tweaked, rather easily, with lots of trial&error testing. (even that is not possible for the DEV doing that because it would need rather constant restarting of the single DEV-Server instance. Number changes cannot be done in realtime AFAIK)

Yet, as i pointed out in my last post - as long as the DEVs themselfs don't aknowledge that the major advertising factor of the perpetuum pvp fanbase is actually the twitch factor that makes it different from EVE -> any idea towards that direction is pointless.


*edit* the above is just a small quick example, just scratching a bit on the surface...

*Disclaimer: This post can contain strong sarcasm or cynical remarks. keep that in mind!

Oh no! only not you! Please....

Come on buddy... Are you really blind? You plays the beta game. So even if everyone will leave the game - nobody will care on it.

If DeVs not blind - they will change gameplay. Else the game will die (with your follow bots together). We already have boredom in universe - EVE. All lovers of stupid mining there. The other ppl need something more than alpha strike key which need push once.

Re: Fix the follow bots

why would i be punish just because i worked hard to buy 2 full pc s and practice enough to run 2 accounts together?  btw u need to research what pay 2 win is .....   taking aproach command away would be dumb just in general,  I am against running software to be able to multibox that is using 3rd party software but if  u do it manually what the problem

Re: Fix the follow bots

i'm just curious jaz,  why the need for 2 pc's?  Cant you just run 2 clients on 1 pc? 

My old system was a core 2 duo with an 8800 gtx.  It was a low end system, and it ran 3 clients perfectly fine.

Re: Fix the follow bots

i can run 2 in one pc yes but why when i can be watching 2 screens and be in 2 places at one time.   i can run 4 clients no issues in both pcs but i just do that when afk mining also its easier if running two active characters to multi task not just set rsa / transfer/ repper and leave it running  i dont like to play video games but full screen.   and this has nothing to do with the topic tbh
