  • Bug that i got, if you kill the boss too fast the rest of his guys don't spawn in and until they die you can't kill it. Log into another character then back into him and re do it, this time just shoot the boss, don't use powers on him, (Chronition mine barrier screwed it for me).
  • I think there suggesting having everything you'd find there added to the main page. Probably not gonna happen since i suspect it would cause the number of assignments to exceed some sort of programming limit.
  • They rarely show in the sector list in my experiance on live, much more common in Ops department head tab.
  • Aside from being handy for hunting down chain assignments, (they can appear in the department head list but not the sector list), they can be handy if your just hunting for specific non-chain assignments too, (Generally when your grinding CXP for a specific category). Pretty much the only thing that would get me on board…
  • It's not a case of assignments being missing though, a few rare exceptions aside they can all turn up in the sector list, it's a case of a shorter list. With 8 screens total you can have over a hundred assignments pop up per cluster right now. Even the Dyson screen has no more than 20 in it's sector list.
  • Because if your going to put a cap in you should do it right, (read before you post in future, i clarified this once allready in another post). @Commrade: You really think more than a tiny percentage of the player base would mess around doing that? I don't. And once the customer base disappear having a workaround isn't…
  • ere's the issue, they've got a month till release and as per the rest of your post the rest of S9.5 isn't even up yet. That means where only going to get a week or two of crafting as the focus of testing then they're going to move onto the rest of 9.5. So we've got maybe 2 weeks to shove changes through as a community via…
  • I( guess you didn't read. The new contact has only one list. Previously you had the sector list and 7 department head lists. He highlighted that. That's why it's 144 chances instead of 7 chances. It's especially important for the Doff'ing assignments as half of them turn up in the department lists much more readily than…
  • If you want to do a cap you have to do it right, that means making it very hard to do any form of trading, including your hypothetical black market, that exceeds the cap. Capping one form and not another won't do bugger all and is just dumb implementation. I mean if i was really gonna sit down and cap prices i'd just move…
  • Ah cheers, hadn't noticed they didn't match :)
  • Or you make the cap Apply to all single transactions and set a limit of no more then the cap between any two accounts in any 3 day period. Multiple accounts can get around that, but it drastically cuts into the practicality.
  • Minor tip. Select the thing you want to convert with a single left click in the convert interface. Hold the Enter key, Rapidly click the buy button. Does em at about 2 per second that way,. Still awful speed but so much better.
  • I just want to re-echo every sentiment here, inj fact i couldn't even see the specialization requirement part, just couldn't find it. Also the inability to filter and the utterly broken recommendation system, (it uses quality and crit/success traits over specialization, even though specialization affects success far more,…
  • Because stacking them would make Grav well so insane it's not Funny. Yes A2B builds are probably the most broken aspect of the Doff stacking atm, but they'd pale in comparison to what 3 purple grav well doffs would allow. A full proc of all 4 aftershocks, though rare can be guaranteed to wipe out almost any non-boss ship…
  • Bear in Mind that Hood was by the standards of her day a Battleship in armament and protection. She was merely a Battlecruiser in comparison to what they'd planned to build as battleships at the time they laid her down, but the Washington Naval treaty put paid to the plans because the ships would be over the 45,000 ton cap…
  • I took a break between S7 and S9 releases so i wasn't around for that but i was under the impression it was in since i started playing back in mid S5. I'd have to actually go buy a Heavy Cruiser to check mind you but eh.
  • This. Many of the doffs are balanced around stacking 3 of them, yes their are outliers like the technician DoFF's but for the most part many Doff's that stack do so because they're only worth using when stacked. If you limit them to a max of 1 of any type your going to have no choice but to treble up the magnitude of most…
  • Check your launcher, top center. Not a lot of info though atm, just titbits.
  • This is a potential issue, but way back when they released the rep system they did say they would like someday to let us command our "spare" ships as a personal fleet. Interestingly they also said they'd only do that alongside a level cap raise to Full Admiral. Also some rumors have been going round of broadside mounts and…
  • Errr, ok i'm confused. Correct me if i'm mistaken but isn't the constellation allready in game in the form of a skin for the Heavy Cruiser et al?
  • This for me. I'd like to see it eventually. But i'm fine with it not happening straight away.
  • My only complaint with the hoverboards is that if you overshoot the finish line you fail the race, period. So if someone grabs a flag last second your SoL
  • Absolutely, the fact that so many aspects of this game are hideously alt unfriendly, (mostly due to dill costs on this or that), is pretty much my No1 beef, you most often go out of your way to stick the middle finger up at anyone with an alt. let alone several.
  • Honestly with the T4 shield resistance trait there is nio excuse for anyone not to do it. That one trait along will chop a quarter of the incoming damage off on any build. Combined it with EPTS3, capped shield power, and a shield and you can get resistances upto between 68 and 70 percent. Which is ridiculously good. It's…
  • Removing the ability for FAW/CSV to target destructible projectiles at all and adding a third "point defense" mode skill that works with all weapons would be best IMO. Would keep things balanced with players without having NPCs invalidate them. Obviously the skill should either override cannon/beam skills or function…
  • BOIII applies an 8.5 times multiplier to the damage of a single shot. But prevents the other beams on your ship from firing for the duration and kills your weapons power for the next couple of cycles. You effectively lose damage equal to 2 cycles of damage to get one cycle a cycle earlier. It's not even close to matching…

  • Company's like that do it all the time. Note that i don't mean they sell my card detail's. I mean things like my name, address, telephone number, purchasing habits, e.t.c. Also my paypal problem was paypal deciding to freeze my account because i'd spent more than X amount over the lifetime of the account and then saying…
  • It means handing out a bunch of personal data that can be sold on to other to yet another company. Plus after the debacle i had with paypal i'm not going to TRIBBLE around with another third party payer like that only to get locked out however far down the line. I just use a dedicated "internet" bank account so if anything…
  • Dosen;t matter. I chose to pay via visa, not via skrill. I do not need an account with them. No other online system i'm aware of that offers the visa option then expects you to utalise a third party to do it.
  • Actually you can't, i tried it which was why i switched to steam. you try and it kicks you to skrill to create an account with them.
