Rampages

Sky Carrier now rewards Questionite, tokens, and rare loot in the main drop. Smaller loot drops for saving specific engines contain mods or recognition.

Fire and Ice: Everyone now gets scoreboard credit, regardless of who you attack or don't attack.

UNTIL Liaison Bradley no longer offers a personal mission to play Sky Carrier.

Costumes

The capes from the Archer costume set now work with Cape Glide. If you were wearing one before this patch, it will be missing the cloth part until you next visit the tailor.

The Robot Samurai's Bow Ends are now available in all categories.

UI

Chat bubbles now have a bit more padding.

The "website" button on the login screen was opening the wrong page. Fixed.

The calendar has been adjusted for daylight saving time. This will look odd until DST actually kicks in.

    I thought it was fixed in last patch.

    That's good news:smile:

    While we are on the subject of costumes, I was wondering if there is any news on a fix to the Victorian Skirt. The third colour was broken several weeks ago.

    Also, concerning the UNTIL military jacket which drops in the SC Rampage, the male version has rather ugly yellow bars on it that can't be colour-changed, I take it that this is an oversight as the female version works well enough.

    Also, the side parts of the new Safety Glasses aren't colourable. I imagine that this is also an oversight.

    We'd really appreciate some fixes to these.

    Thanks.

    Nice that the Fire and Ice rampage has been fixed, though honestly can't say I'm happy about Sky Carrier. These rampages are already massive grinds, and I'm already getting burnt out on them before even having a full set of gear. Sky Carrier already takes a while to complete and gets monotonous. Now it has to be done around seven times more often to get the same number of tokens.

    Moderation is Key.
    Want to get to know me a bit better, Click me and take a read of My Dragon Profile Page, it's a bit dated but still relevant.

    I take this quote from a review that I agree with.

    "customisation is so linear; everyone is after the optimal dps:survivability ratio with 0 reliance on other players = autonomous gameplay... Players don't need each other anymore... which in my opinion is a bad thing."

    The chat bubbles are going to surprise many people when the servers come back up like they did me when I went PTS. :D

    I think they mean an emote chat bubble where you can type a command with some text to put that text into the bubble. Not one that makes a chat bubble appear with EVERY emote.

    How can you guys misunderstand that?

    We used to have /herosay but, last I checked, it was removed.

    Chaos Aura. Yay.

    Not my cup of tea, because I think we've already got two devices that do this very same thing- Dark Aura and Dark Speed.

    Can we move auras away from elemental and magic themes next, please?

    An aura that create a cloud of spent shell casings flying away from you (I know that some weapons already do this too) would be awesome.

    I wish they'd make the holo hex shields into an aura.

    THIS, and more tech auras in general would be awesome. Shields, projected armor, circuitry patterning and stuff like that would be so much fun.

    I could totally go for this. We need to get away from the vague ' formless energy emanating from the body' type auras such as the new chaos one.

    There was a nice suggestion (in the suggestion section of these forums) for animal auras too.

    /playersay is the command you are looking for - this creates a chat bubble with text you give it but doesnt say it in any channel.

    Rather amusing when you use it while waiting for a rez, as the bubble appears from your bottom.

    If you crash or get disconnected for any reason at any time during Sky Command, even the beginning, you won't get ANY rewards since you won't be on the score board.

    Sky Command is dropping R2s and R3s instead of R3s and R4s.

    My issue with /playersay is that it's basically talking to myself, as no one other than the player using it sees the bubbles.
