Heya Commanders?

1st: Have any of you guys ever had lag spikes, NPC stalls or inactivity, game bugs, or just weird stuff happen when using fighters in a wing?
Example: 4 Man wing in a Haz Site running fighters.

2nd: Is it advised for all wing members to run there wing beacons?
Example: All wing members running wing beacons.

3rd: Do Geological sites yield better odds of materials rather that just running around hitting single rocks that yield 3-5 materials?

Thanks Commanders for any tips or advice on this subject.......o7

  1. No but I believe it is a standard complaint/bug.
  2. Pass
  3. Yes much better, there will be many more things to shoot some of which will have much better items.

1. Yes, but only the one time when two wingmates insisted on running SLFs all the time. But then it was really annoying.

2. usually not necessary. We use beacons mostly to make sure we're heading for the same RES, and engage navlock to make sure we drop in the same instance.
(It's really idiotic but even in a PG with 4 active players all in one wing it's possible to get split instances)

3. see above.

You need to find out who in your wing has the most stable connection and have that person to be a "leader" (beacon on, first into the instance, others follow). In such case I have never experienced the game putting me in another instance.
The game doesn't want to create multimple instances if it doesn't need to, so if that happens to you often, it means your or your mate's connection is too unstable and the game didn't manage to matchmake you properly.
I think the beacon has been added for this exact reason (to kind of brute-force the matchmaking in case of a problem)

Well the strange thing is, two of them sit next to each other in the same room and even they get mismatched instances. Beacon alone doesn't always help, it's got to be Nav-lock.
