Tuarus

Ok as noone has responded I spent some time last night checking these things.

On the standard plot, you are allowed to only place 1 main frame in the entire plot. This has led me to have to delete a number of control producing items that were not up to the job,
The holodisplay
The Monitor Bank
This has allowed me to purchase 2 more Databases increasing the base control output. Now it seems like power in the basic plot isnt going to be a problem, but control will be.

So a word of warning, get too much stuff and you are forced into getting a biger plot even if you base desinging skills are good enough to squeeze everything in that you want/need.

I am off to delete the mission computer for one last database.

This public service announcement was bought to you by The Scoobies Elite where there is always a problem.

Welcome back Aerie

I was adding stuff to our base last night (3rd teleporter), and i noticed that the control consumed had exceeded the control produced.

Not a problem I thought and quickly built a second control room, but it wouldnt let me place a second main frame. I could however place extra data bases but they did not add to the bases conrtol output.

Is there a limit to the number of main frames you can have in a standard plot?? If this is the case we will now have to save up 16million (i think) prestige to buy the next plot size up.

Has anyone else experienced this problem and found a solution or can anyone advise on why this is happening or a solution.

Thanks in advance

You can count on Tuarus being there. I am in debt one Hammio and so need to get one to pay it back.

Gratz Chesty.

Glad you got there in the end as you helped me to get there.

Good luck with your alien.

Raz you really went for it on that last lvl.

Gratz mate

See u in the SG base being fed grapes

Thanks JW.

I have a screenie of the moment i have been waiting for for 634hours. I will try to get it posted. Thanks to all the SG who were on my dinging mish as it was an effort to get there.

Out of curiosity who is the best??

Thanks again, now gotta do the same for Hedges.

Raz

How long u expecting this to take?? If the timings are right put me down with T.

Been a pleasure teaming wth you on your way to 50. Soon i shall be a member of that club.
Hope to see you about still mate.

Tonights wedding went really well.

Gratz Guys!

I would also like to say thanks to all the heroes that took part. It was a great sight from the top of the aisle! If anyone can post any piccys that would be great.

Thanks to everyone involved and everyone who turned up again (I know that twice but u made one little girls very special day even more special! lol)

Another thanks to the organisors. Well enjoyed it.

I am happy that I am on the piccys that someone took.Yay.

See you all at the next raid.

U need to nerf ur bird! lol. She is obviously far too powerfull!

How long you want the ceromony?? I did a bit of base design to build a chapel for the occasion but getting everyone in might be a bit of an effort.

What time do you want the minister, as i know the bride can be late but if you dont tell me a time i may be late. lol

TBH anything would be welcome that makes attaining a functioning base more realistic for all SG's.

I will confirm what i see a functional base as being.

A power room with a generator
A Control Room with a Main Frame
A workshop with a Basic Workbench

Everything else you should have to work hard for extras and stuff to make the base available for raids.

Shame there cant be some SG instanced missions where an SG team (good or bad will change the senario slightly) goes and robs a high tech electrical/computer firm and the loot is a computer or a generator ect.

Heroes can help recover some experimental technology for the aforementioned company and then when the return it the companys CEO is so gratefull he gives them a mainframe or a generator.

These could be run like a respec mission with the only requirement being a minimum number of players on a team and they must all be in the same SG and all be in SG mode. Can be done over a few missions with the objective to track down the location of the missing equipment/ location of the equipment.

As others are stating it would be nice to have a functional base so all can retain there current rosters with out people being poached or leaving with a functional base being the reason.

The Scoobys Elite

We have 24 of peoples mains in. (although some a couple are retired as they have hit 50). Some people have also gone to play CoV.

The No Scoobys

Loads cant be bothered to count but most are alts of people in the elites and some lower lvl toons that dont quite make the Elites criteria yet. Will guess at about 60 but a significant number of these havent been played for a while!

You can unlock the portal beacons by visiting zones location badge points whilst in SG mode. I forget wich zones have them
although i know hollows and creys folley do!

The solution I feel is to become one of the larger SGs

[/ QUOTE ]

The point is that this should be available to all SG's not just the larger ones. The SG I am in is made up of friends that have enjoyed teaming together and we share the same twisted sense of humour etc. I do not want to leave my SG for a larger one!

Bases are advertised as a feature on the CoV box and so the basic base functions should be affordable to all SGs.

People have all this salvage building up and are asking what to do with it?? "Keep hold of it for 4 - 6 months till the base is ready (maybe longer), and then we might be able to work out what to do with it." Yay what fun!

Seems a really useful adition to the game to be enjoyed by all, and that is all that I am complaining against. A massive base with teleporters and medical centers are not what I am asking for, just someway of being able to use this salvage and enhance my game experience.

Ah but PvP will enhance your game experience I hear you say. PvP doesnt interest me at the moment (may change in time but at the moment no), ok well be a villian I hear u say in response. I dont want to be evil, I enjoy being a Hero. So my nice expansion pack I have bought has now only updated the graphics for me and given me a room with a blue portal in and a seemingly impossible target to reach before becoming useful! Yay for my well spent £30.

Why cant the core essentials just be made cheaper so all SGs can get a working base fairly quickly and then have the more desirable items costing the ridiculus amounts.

We are being penalised for being a small SG. And because of that we cant use the functions that we paid out for CoV for (dont want to be a villian, not interested in PVP). I wanted a base, and i want to craft things. Things like your own medical center and transporter room should cost loads as they are the desirable bits, but the basics should be more atainable for everyone!

Will people want to activate the base raids where things can get destroyed once they have saved for 3-4 months to buy them?? I think NOT! So only the larger SGs that have a major income of prestige will activate this feature,and so another apealing part of the game becomes rare and only accessible to the really commited gamers (my friend got me onto CoH by saying it can be played fairly casualy and there is no penalization for this, but now there is).

Does anyone have a working base? By working I mean do you have power, control and a workbench?

From speaking to people, it seems most have the rooms they need or a power room and a generator! With CoV just launched a lot of SG's are a "bit thin on the ground", and so the prestige earning potential is low and coupled with the fact you dont get much anyway this is going to take for ever.

I would like to see the nessesary core items and rooms (Power, generator, control, mainframe, workshops, and basic workbench) either be made more affordable or maybe given free to help this.

Dont know how feasable that would be but it would be a help to all SG groups both naughty and good ones.

Cheers guys that is the answer i was hoping for!

Not having got high enough in the beta to experience base building, I was wondering if you buy a room then decide you dont want that room can you sell it and get a full refund like you can with things placed in there?

I may have been a bit hasty and bought a workshop when in fact i needed a control room.

oops

Be grateful if someone could let me know as I dont want to lose the prestige that the room cost if i delete it.

Thanks

Gratz Geo,

Wish I never stopped leveling now to get the debt but never mind! As it stands noone is leveling at the moment.

Good work getting to 50 mate, now all you have to do is get J to admit to being Rocky Jr Daddy and you will be all set with all that extra inf in the way of child support coming in.

Hope to join you soon.
