Watch This Planet Arkadia Update 2013.2 (18th June 2013)

Oh my god! The sky is falling!
I actually agree with Cyborg Bill

 

Im all about brining more people to Arkadia as well.. sadly PVP brings in thieves n cheaters plain and simple.. do you REALLY support those types of players coming here?

 

This...

I hope any net decay revenue generated by the rig is worth it. The first notable digression by A-Team. Dave / Cyrus? Some of your planet's main selling points have been originality and ingenuity, but this... well, its on par with EU's contracting of Cyrus for promo video hacking. I guess I'm too naive to the benefits of a "King of the Hill" area revenue and the supposed swelling population that has called for it. Of course, it can always be removed at a later date...

Rest of the update = outstanding! Great work!

 

Love the updates but I’m with the rest about PVP area. I came to arkadia to make it my home because it was DIFFERERNT and the opportunity to flourish here was large but now it seems to be turning into a little caly. Uber’s to run the oil rig special areas to mine and get special ore’s if you want it then you will have to risk loosing all you have just to try and get it. :shrug::shrug::shrug:
Very poor move, what next are we going to have a robot invasion? So sad about the ore’s that are going to be pvp exclusive. I could have sworn I heard David say one time he was not planning PVP what happen with that idea? There are ore’s that have not dropped yet and now some will be PVP only?????? A sad day for crafters on arkadia. It seems slowly but surely ark is transgressing to caly standards.

 

Well mate heres what I see happening... the same people that get all the good stuff on Caly will come here.. (hunters with high skills who got handed their mining skills thru tertiary gains) will come decay them selves silly... when the loss adds up the run to pvp.. drop a few random probes.. hit a big claim of rares to compensate for hunting losses...run over to the crafting machine and hof themselves silly because no one else can get the materials to craft with.. Soo again.. a caly person will come here for 5 minutes reap their rewards that we actual citizens of Arkadia that have been here since day one have paid for and go back to caly to wait for the next event held in their honor to feed their gaming habits. The crafters on Arkadia waiting for the rares they need will still see very little of it to use and boost the economy. That's the way of EU and will ALWAYS be.

 

Hey, if you make a copy of the planet, you get a copy of the players

 

Yes you can mine but when you make ores PVP specific it cuts out those who would also like to mine for them. What is the point of PVP to rob and steal from others? We have a PVP ring and see how busy that it??????
Just because a few like it does not mean the masses do. Check the forums majority are against the PVP unless you Pirate and love to steal from others

 

Larkin PVP is PVP people dont need skill to pvp just better equipment. skill is playing the game not exploiting the less advantaged. it just put bad mojo in the planet a planet built on peace is now turning into a planet built on greed and exploits.. But we all have our own game play my is to be honest and not rob and steal from other players I guess others like to rob and steal instead of working for what they get.

 

I have 5.5 years of play on DVD If you wish to see it happen real time EVERY time I will sell you copies of each dvd for $7.99 + shipping and handling. There is quite an extensive library its over 7 stacks of 100 dvd's now.

 

Let's all just pipe down a bit. Right now there's no reason to believe that any of the current minerals we rely on are restricted to the contaminated zone. And even if they are, well, there are many miners who enjoy mining in PVP. There probably won't be a shortage of those minerals.

We have known for a long time that there would be PVP zones appearing on Arkadia, not to the extent of Amethera, of course, but it's no surprise.

I just found hebredite in the arctic so we know some resources have been shuffled around.

This looks like a great update so far... Yes, it's sad sometimes when things change... but you can't get better without change.

 

never mind your not getting it. but i will say it slowly for you...... if you.......put special...... ores...... ONLY........ in .........PVP........you will.. limit some....... players game play. not to mention all those hours on maping out my mined spots but hey that just me

 

Will standard Viceroy armor be untradable as well?

 

More untradable items are bad for the economy - the first ones were a bad idea. The whole point of a viable economy is trade. Capiche?

ps... make everywhere else unlootable PVP so I can shoot ignorant miners who drop probes at my feet while I am hunting. So rude...

It was said in the update that there will be “rare resources are being discovered in the Arctic region” Does rare mean the regular rare ore’s or does it mean RARE ore’s needed to craft Arcadian specific bps. that’s what my concern is will they move ores in the pvp that will force crafters to go get them or pay stupid mu for them like some caly ore’s? and with my business focused around crafting and selling my goods in my shop I have a vast investment in the game not only in the EU but in RL as well. but anyway im out of here PVP til your heart is content.
