    PUG Complaint

    Hi All,
    Just wanted to warn you about a few players I played with in a Pug last night. I’m not one to complain usually but these people were absolutely selfish in the extreme. I would recommend avoiding them at all if you meet them in game. I have saved a transcript of the team conversation for you to judge for yourself:

    Me Broadcast: Hi looking for members for team. Lev 40 Blaster, pm to join. Just got a couple of hours here.
    Tell to me: Hi, invite pls
    Team invite sent to Statesman
    Me: Hi thanks for joining
    Statesman: Hello
    Me: Just got a couple of hours, maybe some radio or a couple of arcs for some XP or cool salvage
    Statesman: Star please
    Me: ……sure
    Team invite sent to Manticore,
    Positron, Back Alley Brawler, Numina, Synapse, Sister Psyche

  7. Hi All....

    Just built a new system with a 4850 GPU on Vista 64 and Im having trouble.

    Already sidestepped the Catalyst driver 8.8 issue by downloading and installing the moody beta 8.9

    However when I try and run the game it works fine but I cant get my resolution off 1024!??!

    I run a 1440x900 monitor supoprted by my card but every time I select the desktop 1440 or regular 1440 options and apply it says restart to change settings but the resolution in the box goes to 1024 again.

    help....annoyed.
  8. Big thanks to all who took part in the team on Sunday to "Do" all the monsters in teh game and finish on a TF. I appreciate the help in getting the badges and hope everyone else managed a few too. Everything was done in great team Spirit. I would also like to apologise for standning int he doorway of the last TF mission but I had to cook my GF dinner or she was going to clout me...

    Thanks to:

    Volyova
    Tin heed
    crazy chick
    Will powers
    Atomic
    The Bouncer
    Dila

    and anyone I forgot!

    Sorry that we had to eat the debt that Lusca dished out (I guess it cant be done with 6 people!!!! )...we tried

    See you in game
  9. I've been a player for a long while on COX so this may sound a bit noobish coming from me. I am a little confused and frustrated by the salvage drops in the game. Everyone knows that magic salvage drops are worth more than all the others put together. I find it irritating that when mishing against tech, natural or any other types of enemy even the orange drops on these are worth literally nothing in Wentworths. (I realise that this is not wholly true, but mostly we can agree).

    Simple economics I know dictates the prices of these items since the demand is greater than the supply for expensive items and the reverse for cheaper items. The whole system though seems unfairly skewed towards magic items however. I like picking up stuff and enjoy the random nature of getting good salvage from groups but find myself unfairly drawn to circle of thorns and other magic enemies since I know the drops are worth more, this itself is limiting the game experience a little.

    What I am trying to say therefore is can the devs not with the next issue alter some popular desirable recipes or introduce others that use more high end salvage from other sources to balance this out. The next time I find orange tech salvage worth 200 INF Im gonna get upset.

    I hope you understand where I am coming from with this,it's not a massive thing, I just think that a lot of people enjoy the random pickups (note I see nothing wrong with the recipe pickups, these arent affected in that way) and it would make all missions more fun for people who do enjoy "looting" if it was even slightly more balanced. Im not looking for equality just not total bias to magic as we are now.

    Is it just me that feels this way?

    You can commence the burn now.....
