Are concurrent kills counting towards mission goals for Massacre Missions in CZ's still there?

Possibly not:

Is there supposed to be an update on the xbox one as im not getting an update and cant load into the game as it keeps saying failed to communicate with the authentication server

No more massacre skimmer exploit, thats good but kind of late.

No heavy duty booster stack nerf? Thats bad. (time to go full ret.. i mean phasing)

- Allow a mini USS bubble around Colonia

Not showing in game at the moment but there is one around Maia, has that been there a while?

- When scaling down the fire rate of beams, lower their DPS correctly rather than having no effect. this will slightly nerf efficient beams, with a noticeable effect to lower levels, but G5 sees very small difference

- Efficient no longer increases firing interval (reducing rate of fire)

I am confused. What now?

What are you talking about? It's still one of the best ships in the game and the single best allrounder.

Besides nerfing stuff, did Fdev add anything? Like, besides killing Draconis and possibly Massacre Missions in general, have they adjusted payouts for missions to be more lucrative?

I think that bonds for combat zone kills are up by 20%.

Your negativity aside, one happy trucker reported he found lots of hauling missions paying millions for destinations <20Lys. So I guess the mission payout balance pass made it into the patch.

wowsers that is a lot of wedge.
i have not visited them yet... is this a really involved / time consuming thing to do or is this going to be the 2.2.3 money printing mission?

edit.. if that mission specifically says ALL ancient ruins, and it is completable now, then that is a shame, as i guess it means there are no more ruins to be found. unless you paraphrased the mission?

I know of three ancient ruins. And the timer for that mission is 3 weeks. Going now to Ram Tha to see if I can hand in same of that data i collected a while ago at one of those ruins.
100.000.000 cr is woth it

With me it's very hard to tell when I'm being negative, and when I'm just employing my wry sense of humor

Not on the mission board I checked. It had Exquisite Focus Crystals offered as reward too.

Wasn't the plan to make re-route missions optional, meaning you could choose to deliver to the original destination ?
Or am i confusing this with 2.3 ?
