    Dr Graves Arc?

    Nobody know anything about this?

    Woot! I found a new one

    Hopefully this gets fixed in the fix tonight.


    EDIT:- The hotfix did fix it, yay

    Ultimately, if all your servers have to be worked on at once and your players are all around the world (as they are in this case) then you're going to have to upset some of them and the "best" option is the one that affects the fewest whilst not being impractical (such as doing all the patching at 3am on a Monday morning).
    It's also wise not to upset the same people over and over again, spreading the love around a little bit stops the peeps from getting jealous.

    I dare say the constant EU primetime downtimes are doing no favours to a already dwindling population.

    Nope but they could have brought the servers down as soon as they had the hotfix, think it was about 8am EU time when announced, I wouldn't have minded if they brought the servers down then.
  4. Slazenger, would have been nice, but seems it was taking by a fellow player on my server as a parting gift, he has not been on for a while now and may not ever come back.
    But hey on the brightside I was only planning to visit Exalted over the events period, so no big loss, and have warned mates if they receive grief by my namesake to log entries and I would personally go to support with them.

    Dr Graves Arc?

    Not been able to try the Dr Graves Arc Heart of Darkness from ourobouras, the Arc is set to top of the list Villianside, but I am unable to click on it to start, anyone else having this problem?

    P.S. there are few other arcs 25-29 First ward arcs that I also can't click on to start is this working as intended as i'm not Preatorian?
  6. Would like to comment on this, but can't as I am unable to do the arc for some reason?

    I have gone to Ourobouras and can see the arc sit's at the top of the list, but it won't allow me to click on it to start?
  7. Someone stole my Global name out of spite in the merge and there is nothing I can do about, so don't get your hopes up for dev support.

    And if this person has took your name out of spite, I wouldn't hold out much hope there either.
  8. Yep all the names that I wanted had gone by the time I woke up next morning, and it has taken me until now to be-able to log in to the forum to post.

    Beginning to think VIP stands for Very Irritated Person.

    Not a great start for Freedom really is it.

    I'm just glad it was carrot you were poking me with, I won't be letting my guard down any-time soon again.

    in addition to this the global friends list should have a "last online" section so you can actually tell who hasnt been on in 4+ years lol
    After my first faliure, I agree with this now lol, Devs I want this in and get rid of Origins.

    A Global Update

    well I never, I thought after 7 years there was nothing I missed lol, thanks very much Memphis .....how long that been there?

    p.s. They could have left the Origin sub menu out, a little to much info there, or is there a way to delete that sub menu?

    A Global Update

    A QoL feature I would like to see Devs is an extention to the Global Friends list;

    Global name:- [insert] Local name:- [insert] Server:- [insert]


    I often wonder just by looking at my global list where some of my friends are playing, and rather than sending tells to every single one of em, it would be nice to just see it straight away.
  14. I think people will look before they leap, no-one will want to jump right into a Atlas full of looking for farm or looking for free farm or lvl54/+8 12 million pst (apart from those used to it on Freedom).
    People and other servers are a lot less tolerent to that sort of behaviour and it is quickly squashed on the servers I play on.
    Also you will also get a fair bit of time-zone difference, so population may not be great, in fact the only plus side from the VIP server, is that you have a chance of grabbing the name you always wanted on it (again useless if no-ones on the server).

    You could fix it that way, but... you ever seen the Stephen King film, The Langoliers?, thats how AE would look.
  16. I rate AE in it's whole form a 1 star, fancy giving players the ability to create their own content. It was always going to fail, with the only people profiting, the farmers.

    There is no way possible to make this system work as you will always have conflict of interest.

    The majority will rule and there is nothing the devs or anyone can do about it.

    Since AE started I must of clocked up all of 1hr of gametime in there, after an hour I could see where it was heading and I am by no means a genius.

    Devs create the content, I play it, nuff for me.

    I'm not gonna bother checking out my other characters lol.
    If I remember right, the numbers are for when you are not in a mission. So if that's your farmer, your spending most of your time in missions thus not adding to your time.

    Would say those with the highest accrued time, would be the alts you spend most time standing out of missions chatting to others.

    As far as I remember there has been no way of an accurately reading how long you have played each alt for, and the devs don't want to go to the extreme to implement that, hence the closure of the City Info Terminals.
  18. Had a very bad e,/facepalm experience back when the game 1st started. I got onto a team and mission was set for The Hollows, so from Atlas I went via Skyway to get to Hollows.

    The mish itself was set just by Flux so I had a bit of track to get there die-ing on 2 occasions. Finally I get to mission, a few mobs in we get a Team-wipe, and all hosp it. Back in Skyway I make my way back to the Hollows and manage to weave my way through the mobs and get to mission.

    The team has already taken mob down and a few others in the time it took me to get there?

    Bang! another team wipe and again I make my way back from Skyway. After die-ing on the way back to mission , I get the Mission completed text? WTF, "how the hell you guys getting there so fast?" to which the reply was "we went through Atlas to Hollows", e,Facepalm " you can get to Hollows from Atlas?" mass lol'd from team.
  19. I have noticed the exact same thing with my Nvidia 460 card.
    I use EXPERtool to control my fan settings and noticed it has jumped from being into green which is usually 60-65 o'c to quite firmly being in the orange 80-85 o'c, I haven't changed any graphics settings within game.

    But then, I live in the moment, which, on Infinity, is terribly laggy with intermittent map connection loss for everyone. But Beastyle's promised a War Walker in Atlas Park, so there we are.
    Does the Warwalker come with purple recipe's for all?, if not I'm not buying it.
  21. I see quite a few people looking for a DXP weekend to make up for all the downtime of late.

    Well I don't, Devs if you are reading, could I get an extra Character slot instead?

    Every Thursday the game was up in 2004.

    Every Thursday the game was up in 2006.
    Every Thursday the game was up in 2007.
    Every Thursday the game was up in 2008.
    Every Thursday the game was up in 2009.
    Every Thursday the game was up in 2010.
    Every Thursday, save the last two, that the game's been up in 2011?

    Yep. I see a pattern all right!



    Your common sense evidently didn't read the rest of the EULA about downtimes (both planned and otherwise).
    Um in 2004 the game was shut down for almost a week (Thursday included), this was due to severe lag and we all got a free month of game time because of it.
  23. Issue 21:- Freedom Emergency Maintenance

    Issue 22:- Rollback

    Who will die? possibly no-one depends if servers are up.
  24. 21:00 now, will take it as another EU prime-time washout.
