Looks good to me keep the good job going A-team

 

Awesome speed of bug fixing. WTG!

 

Oro spawns near the firebases are now really sparse. Ive seen 1 in every 30-50 meters.

 

So there's no BPs been released this vu as you stated last week?

 

This is how a Changelog is meant to be Thumbs up

 

Known Issues. (add)

- Each pull with extractors dont pull as much stones / enmatter as it used to. Speed looks ok

With RE-104 i get like 13-15 stones of lyst as i remember it was more like +40?

 

There was talk of bps being deferred until today but they ended up getting them released on Wednesday with the full launch

 

Man, I give up.

 

Known Issues:

Component book cant take more than 100 bp there are still empty spaces

 

Seems like MA really screwed you over on the spawns, the noobie spawns are really small now.

Are you sure MA like you? This sort of thing smacks of not thinking on their part. Shoddy support from them really.

 

Well I've just started playing and there's no mobs inside either firebase at all, not just a low amount, not 1. Kind of hard to hunt/sweat anything else with base skills, hope they sort it soon as I was enjoying this game .

 

There used to be a Korwil Young-Provider spawn just north of the Cheetah Digsite. I cant seem to find it anywhere now. Did it disappear or just move elsewhere?

 

Are you actually talking about Firebase Academies? There should be small mobs.

 

it was some players who requested Arkadia to nerf the spawn. Which is what they appear to have done. So unlikely to be MA's fault on this issue.

 

In the notes it states there will still be a density just not as bad as it was on some mobs, any normal and reasonable software house that has been in the business as long as MA has must know a problem from a non issue. The Huon north of Sanctury Cove for example were so dense that the red dots on the radar almost blanketted the thing. While low level mobs (oro, Hailix) were of a normal density. Now MA seem to have hit the low slider for all mobs everywhere.

Do MA control the spawns or do the Arkadia team? I was under the impression it was MA.

 

I am pretty sure its the PP, MA is supposed to keep the platform in order not individual content such as what mob spawns where.

Best regards

Fair enough I stand corrected, ty.

A-Team I think you overdid some of the spawns xD

 

No, there's L prints and U component prints but all the weapon, armour, attachment etc unlimited BPs were said to be getting launched with this vu.

Without BPs arkadia will go the same way as rocktopia.

 

Yeah, I've just been on for 20 mins or so to both acadamies that I can access, and there were no mobs at all inside.
