    I am stuck on RT trying to bring all my stuff back to Calypso in readiness to get to Arkadia as we speak. 3683 kg weight takes a long time to walk to the tp from the nearest storage. I tt'd a few items to get the 40 ped needed but the system lagged and didnt buy my stuff. Currently I have to take 104 items back to storage to get below 200 items on avatar to get back what was not tt'd so I can get the hell off that rock.
    I may find motivation to actually log in after a few more days of calming down over the petty crap we must fight thru just to be entertained und4er current circumstances.

    Up to 6 months to get ready for Arkadia man :D

    I'm starting to save up now for it. I want to have a nice chunk of PED to keep me satisfied when I head over :)

    I took my card off the MA website for the treatment i receive as of late. But Ill add some ped to get a good start on Arkadia after a little exploration to see if It will be playable or if MA will simple stock every square meter of land with massive mob spawns to force me to be a hunter like they have on Calypso and RT so far. I think if that will be the case then I will surely have to rethink even bothering with the "Platform" at all any longer. I lost interest in hunting once they added regen as simple standing there with an auto clicker for X minutes to kill a mob is not hunting. I dont really bother much past what I can kill using MF that hinders my ability to mine.

    I have faith in the Arkadia team but Im not sure where the line is drawn on things like that and who controls that sort of thing.

    I hear your worries there. There is only so much that a planet partner can do though; I guess only planet partners can know what that boundary is.

    Arkadia Studios please take note. Not all the planet has to be covered with mobs (if you have any say in it). Some of us like to just marvel at the beauty of the landscape.

    :)

    Hey guys,

    Some valid concerns you raise there regarding density of mobs and regen etc.

    I can tell you that we control the spawning of the mobs and we will definitely not be covering every square inch of the map with mobs.
    We want everyone to have the chance to explore the map as there will be lots to see.
    Regarding mob stats, we are able to design the stats, but they then go to MA for balance checking. In saying that, we aim to have a large variety of options to suit everyone. It's important to remember that many people love to hunt the regen mobs, whilst others don't. This also applies to the balance between Hit points/Health and the damage a mob does, we aim to have a good variety. I think one of the exciting things when Arkadia launches will be for the hunters to find which mobs they like to hunt the most.
    For miners who are also an integral part of the planet, we have something very interesting planned. As well as some cool missions for you.

    That's fantastic!

    Exactly! I love trying to figure out my place on new planets; what mobs to hunt, what TPs I like, etc etc.

    I can't wait!! (I guess I've said that a few times before already lol)

    Hi thought I'd finally sign up here and see whats going on :). I signed up to NI not like I visit that forum daily or have even visited that planet either (might do). In my haste to comment on the recent storyline addition I kind of made an error in my forum name. I put powwe instead of power, ops. Never mind if that can't be fixed.
    That's actually a gd idea Larkin I guess I will see you there then :D.

    Sir,

    You just know exactly how to tickle a seasoned miner huh? I am curious tho. The vesre expanding demands drops on certain UL ltems only limited in quantity. I am refering to UL amps. Would it perhaps be possible to get those again one day in "out of Ordenary finds", instead of only scales and Hansidian?

    Ill break it down even to a more simple level...... I mine... I must have more then 3m between mobs to do my job...no space = no workiie workie...no work = no reason to play...plain and simple. Thats why I reclaimed all my things from RT. I was willing to make that my home and did well there.. Then they went all nutbag and copied FPC with a mob every .5M. So now all my junk is back on Calypso waiting for its last chance for me to bother with EU when Arkadia comes.
