Changelog 09/03/2014

The change at the warehouse is a little shabby...
On my first run, I could already saw the sneaker rushes and now it has became reality.

Instead of bringing people together to form big parties and get those damn NPCs, all this calls forth are more sneakers and some fastrelogging.

It is now easier to get the loot than ever before: All it takes is some relay race with 2 or 3 characters.
(But if you get lucky, you can get the stuff with only one sneaker.)

Yeah, yeah, knockback kinda ruins melee, so why there were neverending complaints about not working knockback weapon perk in the first place?

Knockback is quite good with 2 range melee weapons, like Sledgehammer or Super Sledge. I agree that Knockback is bad weapon perk for Mega Power Fist and few other 1 range melee weapons.

all this calls forth are more sneakers and some fastrelogging.

We know then who is to blame if 50% players get banned. Players themself for their actions. Maybe NPCs should be able to detect sneakers, so we don't have this problem.

It can be done, I don't see any problems with that. Took a while to get some actual feedback instead of "blaaarghhh knockback perk ruined weapons fix nao!"

Also, if looting lockers is easier then ever, then what is your problem guys?

I thought you did NR/WH lockers as team activity, but all I've seen so far is fastrelogging and sneakers alone keep opening lockers. Main problem is sneakers, NPCs should have better sneak detection for prevent such actions. Fastrelogging is another thing, not much we can do about it.

Footlocker from New Reno Arms will be moved to another location (Ghost Town from 2238). I'll see what can be done in order to improve situation.

Also, current distribution of rare items is a product of various changes and patches to make some items more accessible, but it will be reworked with wipe and new/old locations and challenges.

There are only sneakers "attacking" from the east. They just run in and out.
There's no real teamplay. It only depends on your luck whether you get the loot at the first run or not.
(The player's luck, not the character's!)

There's even less people, less PvP, less XPing, less fun.
And waaay more fastrelogging than ever before.
All there is just a trail of lost leather jackets from the east entrance to the locker.


P.s.: But yeah, moving the NR locker to the ghost farm is a great idea!

Ghost Farm? Well, I think that is quite good choice as there is nothing else to do there.

[carnack]

Actually i looted more items from the box than ever with my fight character.  I dont understand why changes were not made for mercs and slaves. Favorite and ixi bene ixi or whats those faggots named are abusing this big time.

Ghost town, great location for pvp. had a lot of fun playing there in 2238 and it would be nice to see that place on reloaded.

[Ivic777]

Ghost town is the best place for pvp. Its good for small pvp, swarm or for tactical actions. I would love to see it implemented.

[sogabe]

here's the one million $ question.
if ripper already has "penetrate" perk on it, does using "thrust" make any difference at all?

is penetrate and armor piercing separate?

thank you.

[DocAN]

is penetrate and armor piercing separate?

yes they are

[Strike]

Anything news about next update? Do we see some important changes?

[Kilgore]

Depends on what's important.
