I check my stuff once a week. (or so) It is still in
the 'unresolved' status. I don't see it being fixed any time
soon....

Visions of Stamos

Watching those aflame, afraid

End of Beta days

Glad we have a few creative types out there! SMILEY

blissful saturday

the online dream is ruined

the den needs painting

Also a true story. SMILEY

A shout, a warning

Agent bullets tear through me

Unauthorized Zone

Red Frags are used just like the other code bits but for higher level items.

Your best use is that you can trade them in at any Children of the Code
member for Abilities, Consumables or super hip clothes in a variety of
colors. SMILEY

for want of a patch

downtown hardlines sweetly call

me, to my quick death

without the Machines

Humanity might be free

but stuck in squalor

Heh. That is a sure sign that the night has lasted too long. Misplacing the hallowed caffiene is a sin. SMILEY

Revenge

(With Apologies to The Go-Gos, Vacation)

--------

Can't seem to get far a-way from you

It seems like you have nothin' to do

Now I am away

I wish I'd stayed

Somewhere's a hard line that you...won't... be... at...

When you PVPed me, I should've run

But I thought it was all just for fun

I see I was wrong

And I'm not so strong

I should've known all along that Stuns... would... kill...

A hacker loadout?

Thought I'd forget?

Two weeks of stalking and I

Finally Sneak-Attacked you to death!

CHORUS

Revenge is

All I ever wanted

Revenge I

Had to get away

Revenge is

Best when served up cold

A hacker loadout?

Thought I'd forget?

Two weeks of stalking and I

Finally Sneak Attacked you to death!

CHORUS

Has anyone figured if stats have any effect on the data mining
results? I have enough Reason Boosting clothes but I don't see a
difference per node. <shrug>

Agents Just Want To Have Fun

(Apologies to Cyndi Lauper, Girls Just Want To Have Fun)

We roam streets, around midnight

You Redpills know you have to run for your lives

Oracle, dear, we're not the fortunate ones

And Agents, we want to have fun

Oh Agents, just want to have fun

The phone rings in the middle of the night

Your operator tells you "go and run for your life!"

Oh Tankie dear, you know I still have my gun

Agents, we want to have fun

We Agents, just want to have

That's all we really want

Some fun

When the working day is done

And Agents, they want to have fun

Oh Agents, just want to have fun

The Humans took a beautiful world

And hide it away under greasy cloud swirls

We want to be the ones all powered by sun

And Agents, we want to have fun

We Agents, just want to have

That's all we really want

Some fun

When the working day is done

Agents, they want to have fun

Oh Agents just want to have fun

They want to have fun,

They want to have fun....

I know what you mean. I am getting a little tired of that Gi for
my Handgun loadout. It's been with me since I was on Enumerator.
(Enum->Method->Recursion)

I am with Xytheril on this one.

These items are special items for people who earned them. They should be kept special. It is one thing to want to level the playing field but these items make no lasting difference. If it is to prevent jealousy on the part of the "Have-Nots" then that is wrong. If you were not around to receive a reward, that should not be the reason to get it.

You mention unfair advantage but isn't it an EARNED advantage? I didn't get a Flit Gun nor did I get the Amber. But I don't deserve them because I did not earn them. However, I do have my Mobius Code and my Hardware Req. I earned those and feel that someone who just starts the game tomorrow should not be entitled to easy access to the reward items from the past.

I was stuck "Out of Game" when the buyback occurred so I am stuck with those leaked Zen skills.

That is the best news I have heard for a while now! Thanks!!

watching data streams

It's almost enough to make me lose faith in the viability of Data Mining... :/

I will "Me Too' this one. I'd go so far as to suggest adding "Track" to the right-click options for non-PVP flagged people.

Ahhh the good old days of good recipes. Once they changed over, I went and bought out all the 12-15 charge codes I could find.

This is what I had written on the old boards regarding this...

"Think of it more like priming a pump. You are putting a small amount of water into the pump that will then allow you to pump many gallons for the small initial investment. Eventually you have to re-prime the pump but until then, you get a better return on it. The idea of coding a recipe that will work for a while until you have to recode it fits very well into the whole Matrix theme. Data streams can be tapped and superhuman abilities can be manifested and the very fabric of the Matrix can be bent to the will of the player. Why not create code that uses the very data that is flowing around us to create new items. The argument made it sound like we coders were getting something for nothing. However, that point of view does not factor in the time and effort and $Info investment we make to have those skills.

No matter how you cut it, Coding alone is not going to get you to Level 50. If you look at the $Info it takes to level up coding, and look at the Experience you get for coding things, there is no way that Coding can work as a career path. You MUST be something else. And yet the devs have chosen to 'balance' things by slowing down this secondary skill set? It seems as though the balance-point is randomly set."

I still think that the paltry couple of charges we get out of a code is a bummer. They sprang this change on the community way back when with no discussion.

falling green code rain

birds, sky, streets, redpills, agents

all the same to me

So there I was, farming for Operative Subroutines with my Submachine gun proxy.

The proxy was set for Aggressive. I ran back to the hardline to decomp and check the market. I totally forgot about the proxy. I don't recall where I left her but she was wandering the alleys destroying Assassins. I just followed the trail of dead bodies and found her at the end of an alley just waiting.

All that was needed was her to say to me "OK. What next?"

Do you stand back and use Coder blasts and barrages and statics or do you use those tacky and mundane hand weapons?

I am finding good results when I act as a "state producer" for my Proxy.
I have a couple of enhanced guns that have a chance at producing a certain state and then, based on the Rifle/SubGun/Handgun proxy, I take free-fire attacks of the appropriate style to double my chances at producing a favorable state for my proxy to take advantage of.

This works better for me than standing back and zapping the mobs...

I have been mainly using Gun Sims since they are still new. After all that time with ONLY Aikido Sims, I get kinda queasy when I think about using one.

I am SO waiting for the Graphic Novel. SMILEY

All of the Zen animations are very amusing. There is something
special about tossing someone around rather than crushing their spine
with Flying Feet of Fury (tm)

Hoping that they stay in/come back real soon.

Just wait until you master macroing the /savelo and the /loadlo commands. then, if you get a kill phase during a mission, you can, at a click, reload your skills to Gunman at a nearby hardline, then switch back to Spy for the rest of the Infiltration.

/savelo NAME1 - saves current ability loadout
/loadlo NAME1 - loads the loadout called NAME1

/macro NAME1 /loadlo NAME1 - creates a hotbar button called NAME1 that will load the loadout called NAME1

VERY useful.

But wouldn't it be cool if you could use Syphon Data to suck Health Points from an enemy into yourself?

MUAHAHAHA Ph3@R the M1n3RZ!

Swung by last night and had a blast!

Thanks to all that made it fun...

Where are the screenshots? SMILEY

the real life code streams

override the matrix ones

overtime again

Just reloaded Spy and found that the Leg Throw sometimes dumps me out of stealth and THEN tries to complete the throw. Irritating....

The reason I ask is that I found that Gunslinger was a wee underpowered in combat. I coded up submachineguns and took an off-the-rack Dual FM11 setup. I found that Controlled Burst hits 500-600 regularly and the Sliding Volley did over 1000. I am level 40.

As far as I know, there is NOTHING in Duelist that comes close. Am I wrong here?

Great discussion, folks!

I have been playing around a little and have kept as many of my duelist abilities loaded up to use with Scattershot. It is a nice combo. I just need to stagger people more often now. Getting a 1000pt Full Auto off is so very gratifying...

Anyone happen find anything that buffs Stagger Duration?

I know I have items in my compiler that buff Pacify Duration States, Stun Duration States etc. I was just thinking there would (should) be similar buffed items for Staggered...

I'll tell ya, the limited charges thing I am getting used to. But EVERY TIME I am in the compiler then have to remember the EXACt name of something and go into the Analyzer to see what it does, I get upset.

Let's not even go into the duplicate items that have identical names but different bonuses!

Grrrrrr
