have you been in recently? im waiting tell next wipe
Not since Spring really. That patch was awesome!!!!!
I'll join a raid here and there. But im mainly waiting for 1.0 release before getting back fully into it.
The last wipe is today guys !
Got to raid some Sunday night, all of Monday and Tuesday night. Because of the flea market i was able to complete quests easily. Already at level 16.
Flea market itself has further broken the economy of the game. Half or near end-game character level players had so much money. Now this can be done far earlier. Not to mention low level characters have access to higher end gear now. Further issue is that the flea market promotes hatchling runs. Where prior the traders sell price was regulated. A hatchling can now multiply their profit by a factor of ten with the flea market.
Sunday night i started out with 800K. Spent 400K acquiring a documents case and various keys for Customs. With only surviving three out of the ten raids that night i quadrupled my money to 1.6 million because of the flea market. That night and still to this day ive done zero hatchling runs.
Flea Market itself exacerbated the issues of players economy, hatchlings in raids and trader limited stock items. Currently this is the biggest problem with the game.
Barter goods with traders is in a better state this patch. However the flea market broke it. An i have no idea how BSG can resolve it.
You should make a post on EFT Reddit an see what people think.
I did. Though my initial post dealt with the Flea Market promoting anti-social behavior. For BSG has stated the game is meant to be played in Squads. It wasnt well received, lol.
After giving some thought believe ive found the solution to the Flea Market. All other suggestions ive read are complex and players would need a user manual. My solution is just place a hard cap on the amount of auctions a player can post to the Flea Market each week. This will force players to prioritize their listings and help stop the hatchling runs the Flea Market is promoting.
Did twenty or so raids yesterday. 80% of the players i ran into were hatchlings and or someone just carrying a low cost weapon. An these werent new players. Majority of them were in the high teens and twenty levels.
Oh, and they added a NY and Washington DC server : )
We gotta check it sometimeproblem is, when we sqaud bro. The russian aka @ssBaldy is gonna be tagging along, i wonder if its more stable for him now
We gotta check it sometime
I may jump back in when Labs drop.
Next major update which is apparently by year end is supposed to have the new map.
did you see the underground military complex? And the new cultists?
My stats this wipe are quite insane:
Three raids i did this morning. Last two were ended by the same player who is obviously cheating.
Havent been able to watch their podcast sadly.
