Patch Notes Update Update 3.0.4

[Cmdr Ultra]

So many changes which for a large part seem redundant to me personally, as well as sometimes having an inverted effect to what was intended.

Well stated Void Walker in regards to C&P.

thank you for hearing the people

I have Python for crime as well. Fully engineered and the only Outfitting it needs is taking the fuel scoop off for an extra cargo bay. Best pirate ship.

Also have a crime Courier just to annoy the everliving hell out of Cmdr's. It goes 810 m/s with a mild combat fit.

All my other ships stay on the right side of the law.

Exactly I wasnt too sure about the crime and punishment changes but once i got use to them its easily.

That courier sounds fun just do rings around them until then just submit and leave LOL

No fix for the bot attacks that have rendered Powerplay and Background Simulation play (BGS) pointless, or the ATR counter malfunction that stops ATR appearing and allows 200+ million bounties by cop killers, also rendering BGS pointless?

I must say that I am having a VERY hard time motivating myself to do my weekly PowerPlay work after reading that thread over on DD.

I've been with Aisling Duval for 60 weeks this cycle, and suddenly, many of the odd happenings over the last year and a half make a lot more sense. Why we had to prep some systems beyond belief to get them. Why many of our expansions failed due to overwhelming opposition that stripped our community's ability to counter.

I would have normally already done my paper hauling for the cycle and hit my 10k merits or more for the Rank 5 I have held since week 2, but I don't think I have the desire to do this anymore. What is the point when your enemy aren't real players?

If this "outrage" ever gets addressed in a serious manner, I will consider resuming my participation.

But for now, I think I am DONE with PowerPlay.

Argh! Lost all my time bonuses. [where is it]

Time bonuses (for 14 data transfer jobs) = 90 minutes

Downtime = 120 minutes.

Typical! No warning signs were shown until I was already unable to connect and got booted to the main game GUI. There they were, stacked, from 15 minutes down to 'bye 'bye [knocked out]

Strange it was counting down every 10 minutes from 60 minutes to go which was when I logged in.

No fix for the bit with the thing being different from when the other thing triggered two events instead of one, except for when you pressed the button in time to make the first bit go ping?

:O Stop pinging it!

(Thanks FD)

Station services still locked out in anarchy systems when you have a bounty (they shouldn't be)?

 

[Gabbatek]

And still no fix on NPC's power plant is is still working after module reduce to 0.

THIS

 

[Cdr Voorheez]

Thanks for fix

 

[Hessfire]

That's by design, oddly enough. I'm hoping they change it someday too, but for now this is how Frontier wants it be work.

That may well be, but as it directly contravenes years of stated position in reference to play styles and modes being equal, there's no harm in politely bringing it up and into the light of day as a concern.

 

[zombieapocalypse]

Cool, thanks guys

 

[aRJay]

Why are there police in an anarchy system in the first place. It's the definition........... Anarchy=a state of disorder due to absence or nonrecognition of authority.

Like the rest of us they are there to do stuff they can't get away with elsewhere.

Hello everyone, [...]

Good job to the team. Keep up the good work.

*ducks and runs for cover*

 

[Merk7]

That's very rude of you. Talking like that isn't helpful at all.

While a 100% agree with you don't give child or man/child attention it's the reason they post like that and only encourages it. Thank you Sir. It's like the shooters that do it just to get on the news.

 

[StrangeCrunchy1]

Does this fix Aulin Focus not having a contact to pay off fines? If not, you know, Simmons' Progress is right on Aulin 4...would seem the logical place.

 

[Cdr Voorheez]

Good job to the team. Keep up the good work.

*ducks and runs for cover*

Sadly positive comments are not only rare but vilified here. Your words carry wisdom.

Steam just did a 22.8mb update for ed

 

[Crank Larson]

Well, that was quick. My client has updated, and the launcher says that the servers are online again (not that I've tried playing, can't until later).

Thanks. Repped.

Hmm, I see that being able to clear a non-murder bounty at a Security Contact, rather than at an IF, didn’t make it to the update.

Is that still in the works? That sounds like a healthy balance between something like an accidental discharge or planetary scan small bounty and a murder. You can still be shot at, and have to be cautious where you go, but you don’t need to schpep to an IF unless you actually blow somebody up.
