What is the capital of papua new guinea?

w00t first post!

OK, mXo question. What is the capital of papua new guinea in the matrix artificial reality files.

Message Edited by Ntrails on 12-21-2005 04:43 PM

Serious one. Any vague guesses on the test server?

Message Edited by Ntrails on 12-21-2005 04:45 PM

Let's see here... First question: not an MXO question. Second question: not only did I already respond to this question before, but it's also a future release question. So you see, monsieur, that the deck is stacked against you.

EDIT: Ooh, and you also edited your question, which is another rule broken! My poor rules!

Message Edited by Rarebit on 12-21-2005 04:51 PM

It so is a matrix question. I rewrote it so :p

Sorry - i wanted to try and be first but never thought i would be. then i was, and it was like stage fright in the gents - couldn't get anything worthwhile to come out SMILEY

first again but no question. DOH. and i broke the rules by editing. /sepaku

could you add that command like suicide, but with an animation?

Message Edited by Ntrails on 12-21-2005 04:54 PM

Yep - as expected.

But this seemed the place to check it was known.

No doubt it is on the elongated repro 'to do' list.

Wow - that was deep man

Quite simply, turn on disguise. Let it run out. The animation for it being in use continues (scrolling line up and down the icon on the hotbar).

Turn on hyper defense. Unload the ability. Reload it. The animation of being in use (scrolling line up and down the icon on the hotbar) restarts.

Not only that, but you have to turn the abilities OFF AGAIN before you can turn them on.

Minor bug.

/ccr yet? Probably have.
But thanx for sharing, does it do anything special when this happens?

Laters

It is just a small animation issue. The only gameplay effect is having to turn it 'off' again before you can turn it on. (Despite the ability not being on, the hotbar icon says it is, so it takes two hits to reinitialise.)

/bugged I believe, but thought I'd shove it here too.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at your stupidity.

Now come here and give me a hug and let's be friends

Just to clear up a small issue, if he targeted himself, and was standing up in sneak with absolutely 0 health... I'd be impressed.

I feel so sorry for you norepo! Now you told us all you're on our servers we all wanna duel ya :p It's always nice to know you play the same game we do so actually really understand it from a player issue. And yeah I'd love to beat the snot out of you or die at the hands of a Dev. Either way would be great fun :p

Seriously, that was good news to me. And thanks for putting your time into the game SMILEY

I'd like to make a special guest appearance...

Like a celebrity drop in?

I think a cool plan would be to have a level 2 somewhere in the city, sitting down with its' PvP on hidden.... He will not move for 1 hour. First person to find and kill - wins. Points for artisitic impression.

I willl be enjoying exploring the new trees for a while.... They have time.

But because one person cancels from another hacker nerf, doesnt mean they shouldnt change it. More people are leaving because hacker is overpowered. There should be no way a hacker can go 1v3 in PvP. No way. Yet it happens everyday. Hacker has been overpowered since Beta. What they have done to it now is necesary. If this was your game, would you seriously sell the game saying you can be kung fu! but yo will always die. No, you wouldnt. You would go back to the roots of the game, and movies. Yea, all MMOs have a caster class, but that doesnt mean that it should be the winner for all.

I sort of agree, but area effect hacker skills will always be strong. The important thing to recall is that they put VD in MA trees - That is LONG overdue. Thanks for the gift of flexibility. They should be careful of flooding us with DR though. I heard there was an awful lot in awakened now. Mkt's are not strong enough to deserve total screwage and it hurts gunmen too!

I read it as the same RSI can only be done once per 24. could be wrong. It should copy instantly.

I think this adds great danger to the game for higher levels, which is great. Now a level 50 bumps into a team of level 30s and there will be a fun fight on both sides hands.

Agreed - but i think 6 30's would still get pwned. However they do the system 30's will not deal enough damage and the 50 will end them swiftly - likely without going below half health. 6 40's would be a good game.

bonopi wrote:
yes this is posing a big mistake from what I can tell.
The main problem is that if we are unable to get them from a vendor then we will never be able to test Consistant Technique which is very important to load up to test the CU 2.0 properly. If they're not at the vendors and we can't code them then we need the devs to do something about this asap!

possible that the abilities aren't ready for testing yet? /Bug it and see what they say.

Now instead of hacking you to death from interlock the zerg can free fire MA you to death.

Great:smileyindifferent:

Sounds like breaking up mini-zergs will now be harder than ever.

The ONLY overpowered hacker tree before was Ballista but everyone whined and complained to no end.
Now we can deal with all new imbalances.

Hope they are glad what they got (throws up middle finger for all hacker haters)

BTW the jury is still out on this

Um, am i the only one who feels that when zerged - In any useable combat system - you SHOULD lose. 6 on 1 should be odds you cannot easily survive. So now deal with the zerg through tactics. Trust me, it is doable.

And hacker. code shock - overpowered and obscene. Everything in arb - too strong. Despoil - absurd. Bottleneck - too harsh/too long. Dev field. overpowered. Those really need balancing. The rest is not too bad.

Jus thought i'd bump this as Zion has started a fight club faction.......

It's only after we've lost everything, that we're free to do anything.....

I am the all singing all dancing carp of the world, glug glug

TetraCleric wrote:

Well I dont think "Thrown Resistance/Dodge Thrown" and stuff like that are actually for MKT. I think it may include MKT, aikido, and maybe some MA/Gun free Fire attacks. But I dont know.

We shall find out soon i hope, but still - they need to be careful with the nerf stick. I am coming to the conclusion Mkt ain't that big a deal. Hyperdodge costs 1 mem slot SMILEY an there are lots of clothes. I don't think they really needed to do anymore. I don't want the servers to degrade into JUST MA. Or more likely just gunman now disarmed has gone... (sucks)

/agree

TetraCleric wrote:
I dont think Ballistic things corresping to only Ballista. I have a feeling that it includes guns and free firegun attacks, as ballistics are related to guns. Just my opinion for now though.

I think he meant everytime he got shot he was interupted. As if he no longer had concentration

I hope you are right. I won't be in game for it though SMILEY

LOL - crazy..... did y'all die? :p

All (3 chevron) NPC's have abilities above their level.

You could test it.... But it think you'll find 2 chevrons do too.

Bethlahem wrote:
yeah, vector especially needs to see the rolls lol, how can we have a 400 club without it???

seriously tho, i saw a post elsewhere where someone photoshopped an example of putting the rolls just under the attack buttons on the right... search for link

http://mxoboards.station.sony.com/matrix/board/message?board.id=epdiscussion&message.id=1215

I like this idea. no clutter but we gets to see whats we wants to see

The true 400 club is based on average rolls. Not 1 lucky high roll.

My pleasure. May you stick it to the man every day for the rest of your death.

Gunslinga its me rowley im in stand alone and i already made a post for our faction a few days ago

but i'd like to say this Synakal,Me,KingHazaa,and Fatboydoa, were the first we started it

First off send a heads up to syn from me, see if he remembers who i am.

As for spelling not mattering it does. For many reasons. For one thing you are advertising a faction so when you spell badly, you show your faction in a bad light. Not a good thing i hope you'll agree. It is also disrespectful to those of us reading your post, if you can't be bothered to take an extra 30 secs to make the effort to create a correctly spelt cogent post why should we take the time to read it? Manners maketh man. Also you should have the pride in yourself to not want to be thought of as someone who is incapable of writing properly - that to me is very important. Most people who see someone in dirty clothes would think badly of them, we all try and project an image when we walk around and the same on the boards. We care what other people think so avoiding being thought of as illiterate is pretty important.

Finally on a personal note as i am in the process of teaching my 7 and 10 year old boys to be literate, along with everything else they need to learn, i know that doing something badly when you think it doesn't matter will affect your ability to do so when you know it does. Doing things correctly is its own reward because the habit will pay off in the long run. I may make this a seperate post. Anyway, i sign off here.

For the second tick I am now in Power Tactic and using Overclock. My damage is now 299 per tick.

On the last two ticks my Overclock has run out (I am still using Power Tactic), and my damage is 170 per tick.

No offense - but you need to play around with your loadout..... I can get better damage than that against a 50 - and I'm a 49 so can't load the top abils.

I still have the one they gave us ages ago. I figure that at 50 it would make sense to give us 1 RSI hack to deal with the fact that we are now 50, know something about the game, and can make a more informed decision.

I have never used duals. Yet.

But I think it is not that good an idea. Sorry. I would like more variety in the styles available at each level - everyone is gonna use the top drops and therefore look the same - but that is personal. I don't see a need for this.

On many occasion lag has caused MY game to tell me an NPC is clearly on the other side of a wall and therefore untouchable as I stand around getting pounded by gunfire.....

Bayamo wrote:

Um no offense, but NPCs have always sucked (except in the very beginning of QA CR2). CR1 hacker and patcher npcs were a breeze, their AI wasn't that great and NPC always had worse rolls than the players wearing MCT, RCT, VT, VD, DR etc clothing.

Except haxor NPC's in CS1....... if you were a hacker they would often have too good a VD to easily beat.

Holy water works well i guess. Does around 75-80 dmg which would take a very long time to kill Tengu.

Enhanced holy water..... even quicker

*goes to code*

I have not tagged the DT nodes..... why?

The xp with no info = trees not levelled. Plus - it ain't like I'm gonna get attacked.

For one hour I stood there, with two concurrent 5 second abilities attracting attention. No agent attack.

Seriously - this is one of many bits of content that is simply irrelevant. Make the agents attack. 5 mins is too long in an untagged area - especially when using abilities that attract attention. Otherwise, I and many others simply won't bother.

My entire system chat was full of those threats. Ridiculous. I know the chances go down as you level - but I don't think they should ever be this low.

you say to level with some 50's but how many 50's are going to help some 10's or lower?

:robottongue:

Only ones starting a new faction and needing some beef, or those setting loot to 'most damage'

I remind you that hyper jump is your friend. Stick to main roads as far as poss cause they are safe.

Take a buddy. One other player will make life a lot easier.

Welcome...

Which server to join is entirely up to you. If your from anywhere in Europe 'Syntax' should be your choice as it contains most of the MxO's European community, don't think that if your not European that you shouldn't though... There are a load of people on there from all over the US too.

Only choose Vector if you want to play the game with full Player vs Player action ALL THE TIME! (Best to get used to the game in another server first and make your second player there.

Don't worry about the time you do or do not have to play, just play at your own pace... And don't forget to have fun >: )

Hopefully see you on Syntax >: )

JN.

I disagree - Input was the euro server with euro times and was melded into Vector. Therefore i predict Vector to be the most peeps local to you. However where ever you are from there will always be a 1000 + on with you so enough to meet.

Vector is a tough world to grow up on but ultimately the most interesting i feel. And with limited time more than one character would be time consuming and annoying. So it depends what type of game you want, vector is all out war, no prisoners, and you will die more often. But you will end up better for it and with (i feel) a more interesting world.

Enjoy yourself.

you need to get yourself a friend to code this stuff, pay them what it costs and give them the pieces they require. Buying it is exactly 10 times as expensive as coding. Good luck

Erace, take your pointless backside back to mara so you can stand, do nothing, and think your hard.

As for the neo faction, good luck trying to recruit 50's, and if you power level noobs good luck keeping them.

Having neo in the name makes you a target.

Im pretty sure the 'thrown resistance/defence' stuff is all about the actual combat tactic throw. To me it seems like they took away actual vulnabilites and instead put seperate influences for every attack tactic, thus in a way creating a new set of constant vulnabilites in your oppenets. Just this time round you've gotta work to figure em out.

Then i can only assume there is speed attack resistance etc etc.... SO i can make an UBER - anti aikido but weak VS karate :p neato

I actually want to hit myself as hard as i can, and i want to not realise i am doing that until the end of the film when i am about to blow up 4 buildings and a bunch of people. When incidentally i will shoot myself through the back of the neck but survive. Hmm.....

cloudwol wrote:
Well i was referring to the change of item meaning i.e my old decompile outfit now buffs my throw resistance. whisky tango foxtrot.

I agree - it is a bit odd. But i reckon that is a minor problem. I don't think they will be having clothing with those kind of buffs anymore - but i could be wrong.

They had better be damned sure that the top drops and decent clothes ARE STILL GOOD at the same sort of stuff too.

Anyhow, lets give them a chance. And to the Redpill - Read the goddam patch notes. And known issues. Wire fu will return but this is a TEST SERVER and it is currently off

I sent a pm to the QA admin NoRepro as well.
Consistant Technique is very important.

Especially in this world where rolls are sufficiently random to allow a level 2 to hit a 50..... consitent technique is VITAL :p

Is this a faction? wrong board
