Topic: Scheduled server downtime - 2016-09-23

Server will be down on 2016-09-23 from 15:00 servertime/CEST (13:00 UTC) for the deployment of patch 3.8.1. The patch brings the second wave of Syndicate robots, and includes a few fixes and balancing changes. Downtime will be about 1 hour long.

Re: Scheduled server downtime - 2016-09-23

Sometimes I really do think you guys are ***. Vektor + evasive + evasive nexus = something nobody can hit with guns.

Did you balance this while high or is this just another staggeringly obvious display of your complete lack of understanding of balance.

Proverbs 23:20-21 warns us, “Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags."

It's vektors online now they can't be hit

Well technically they still can be hit. Really you just find the guy carrying the nexus and pop them. Then if you have a say.... baphomet or two with even one weapon stab you will be able to get enough hits in to kill as the number is no longer negative.

Reading this signature fills you with determination.

The vektor itself can fit the nexus and with -.17 hit size can't be hit or neuted

It cant be hit but it can still be neuted just fine with the negative number. Guessing you have not tested it yet.

Re: Scheduled server downtime - 2016-09-23

Anyway its too low on Vektor (still not really useful robot).

Go back to the hit size it had before!

Re: Scheduled server downtime - 2016-09-23

It's two issues really, the first is the lack of diminishing returns in the games calculations that has always been an issue - this is why the Seth mk2 out damages the Mesmer mk2 even with gauss. The second is that the devs have no idea what they are releasing or balancing, that's ok I guess. The problem with that is they don't listen.

the problem is, that there is nothing wrong with the seth beeing able to do that. Its just wrong that the Mesmer is not able to use the gauss as intended (hit&run) due to the only dimishing returns system ingame, is not very well understood by the DEVs to begin with.

Also can you issue warnings and 7 day bans to the people who know full well that this is broken, exploit content and are still using it in PvP instead of reporting it.

Do you think game developers should take no action against people who don't report exploits and broken content and use it in PvP? This game has a LONG history of allowing exploits and game breaking actions to be done with absolutely no consequence so it's hardly a surprise people keep doing it.

This is a simple experiment from DeVs:
1) Make things imbalanced.
2) Watch on reactions.
3) ??? - Profit!

Re: Scheduled server downtime - 2016-09-23

ah jita
everyone who is full aware of this, can field missiles. if the evasion turns negative, even medium ballistics will one-shot that vektor bot.
you can neut it, you can demob it.

unless you roam with gauss seth's only, you can always field missiles...

Your as bad as Zoom. What the hell is that got to do with anything? Its obviously an unintended use of mechanics.

Re: Scheduled server downtime - 2016-09-23

The Vektor will be fixed soon. I simply forgot about the extension that boosts the evasive nexus. (Btw it's -0.20 with everything maxed and T4 modules.)

Re: Scheduled server downtime - 2016-09-23

Could make a module that raises hit size so it has a counter and leave them as an interceptor class

there are two modules to counter bots with a small hitsize

1. missile launcher
2. stabilizers
(3. AoE weapons)

though, i don't know how missiles would work against a vektor that has a t4 evasive module and a t2 evasive nexus with the extension at lvl8... the resulting hitsize is 0.01m -> that sounds like a bot that can tank with a small repair module

i wouldn't mind if equipping a stabilizer, would not lower your weapons dispersion, but increasing the targets hitsize for you only.

And you see when you make no comment to say that it shouldn't be abused people still:

Just like the other 9000 other similar situations you did nothing about.
