A small change to Military Base.
« on: October 04, 2015, 04:33:47 am »
Aside from the issue of it being broken IMO (see Bug Repot) I have an idea for it.

If the idea for the map is for factions to do this encounter as a team... Why not add a fire pit area in which the player that encountered it can use to create a map to the location so s/he can give out the map to faction members?

Could still have the requirement of having to use the three logs. That dead guy could have set up a tent with a fire place and we can use the three logs and it will be just like a tent base.

Personally I wish you could do this mission to get a unique base. +1 to make it easier to let other people find the place.

Something else with this encounter. I doubt anyone person could do it by themselves with a single character. So... shouldn't there be a requirement that you have to be in a faction or with other people when you encounter it? Seems a little cruel to let people who have no hope in hell of completing this quest encounter it. Maybe make it so the robots don't heal?

I have turned down this encounter a bunch of times. But yeah I could just join a faction or something. I get this is what this game is about so I am not bitching. But I do enjoy PVE and this would be an awesome one if I could do it on my own in under 24 hours.

Also is it still a 24 hour thing? I have encountered it during week days and that this is something I could only do on the week ends.

Anyways my original suggestion would at least let me make a map and sell it to another faction who would actually have a chance to complete it.

With decent weapon with EMP shells or electric dmg it can be done quiet easily by solo player. I wouldnt touch it to make this available to groups only. It's already hard to find.

I do it solo. Its very much possible, you can just walk around the Nemesis without killing it. But I think the 24 hour thing is still around.

I was shown how it could be done alone. Hopefully next time I encounter it I will be able to do it.

But still it does seem odd that if you screw up you could end up spawning dead at that elevator and it just seems like a flaw to me. But if it isn't then I will have to try and not screw up next time  8)

A map option would be good for those who come across it but have no hope in hell of doing it. So they can give the map to others to access the encounter easier.

I don't think it's needed, you can just lead them there, the location should be temporary anyway.

Bad map for a faction base, would be not very useful. I bet that somebody could do a better faction base map with a mapper, tools and source map are available so I don't see the problem with that.
