I also loot most of my stuff from Fort Muerto’s lost cargo drops.
And I don’t think you know the definition of whining.
So what? You can fly a T4 and over tackler and pick up lost cargo anywhere. You’re not killing, or even fighting anything for that matter. You’re not fighting bios or even high level normal invasion enemies. You’re just running, which is what I just said. You’re okay with playing the game by just running, that’s fine by me, I don’t care. If AI didnt start shooting down drones, you’d still be just running, it wouldnt have affected you, so youre -no one- to say that Im wrong. I actually did fight and kill things, and now that AI shoot (and FOCUS) drones, my fighting and killing things options have been taken and limited in a stupid and uneccesary way.
Why people have difficulties to understand that AI just received its “Eyeballz Mk2” udapte (Now able to see drones ! And there is more ! They are not only looking they are also shooting !)
Yup, but they was not obtainable before (except some ESB members of course, lol)
It was. You were just needing to search on the correct place to find them.
This game should be thriving, but it is constantly a frustration for the players. I haven’t ever played a game with so many negative reviews, and yet so many die hard players. This illustrates that the initial idea is good - the actual gameplay can be quite fun, but the community is feeling left out among other glaring issues.
Now over 1,000 hrs on this act and just about as much on my previous account (From March '13). Sadly, not much has changed. Every single patch discussion is full of rage and talk about the poor treatment of players, lack of information, ignoring persistent problems, not fixing playability, and on and on and on. It seems the complaints haven’t change much he last year. Why is that?
There are persistent problems that keep getting ignored and instead we are given more ways to spend GS and a much longer grind. How effing long does it take to create a competent matchmaking system, proper server designation, and server stability? Another year or two maybe? Is this really NOT in beta any more? It seems to me that these issues should have been a priority for the devs… long before even mentioning the dreaded DREADNOUGHT.
I’ve tried hard to promote this and everyone who joins says the same thing—“too much grind”, “feel like I have to pay to make any real progress”, “the servers suck”, “matchmaking is horrible”, etc… After a time I get the “Thanks man, but I’m done with this game” speech.
The progress seems so small in comparison to the amount of feedback given (and the amount of time they have had to fix these issues) I have to wonder about weather or not this game is a priority, or if Gaijin is pooling their resources somewhere else because they know this is a flop built on match sticks.
If only the devs understood that it doesn’t take a lot of bells and whistles to keep us happy, just a good solid foundation. If we had that foundation, guarantee we’d be throwing money at this game.

Just . . . “meh”.
Flop built on matchsticks, no. The game had tons of promise. It still has promise, but not while it’s owned by gaijin. Gigantic flop for greed? Totally, and it does 100% feel like theyre trying to kill this game with every change. But the die hards, the T5’s and premium ship pilots that paid money won’t give it up -because they paid money-, and it would be wrong for gaijin to simply shut the game down without paying out compensation to the players, which they do NOT want to do, whether it’s paid into another game or simply returned. Gaijin’s mind goes one way, and that’s from your wallet and hands into their pockets.
You must realize by now the developers don’t actually dictate what’s going to be changed in the game.
You’re not fighting bios or even high level normal invasion enemies. You’re just running, which is what I just said.
so youre -no one- to say that Im wrong.
Not sure where you got the idea that I don’t fight AI ships. Yeah, I don’t shoot the high-level bios when I’m alone. That’s suicide. Pirates? Sure, I can manage a few of them if they aren’t near other patrols.
I have just as much authority to say you are wrong as anyone here. But you don’t want to hear you are wrong, do you? So of course, any opinion that doesn’t agree with yours (even if it comes from a player who has played Tacklers at every tier level, with and without drones) must be wrong and discarded as irrelevant.

Opinions can’t be right or wrong. People can be though, and youre still nothing but a perfect example, sheerly from assuming opinions can be. It’s not a question of authority, it’s not a question of experience, and it certainly has nothing about what Im hearing from you. You’re some schmuck across the internet, come at me m8. It still doesn’t stop the facts. The facts are that this difficulty increase in AI was pointless except to hurt the income from invasion pve of players who are under T5. The whole point of attack drone’s is that theyre hard to hit peices of glass that passively damage your target. In PVP youre -lucky- if a teammate shoots drones off of you, because youre only other options are turn, tank the drone fire and shoot them yourself, or lose the lock-on. AI -not- shooting at drones meant ships that weren’t frigates, that didn’t have the tanking capacity, could rely on long sensor range and speed.
But no, relying on sensor range and speed is ‘wrong’.
after giving some playtime with the changes to drones, I have to say that running attack drones in invasion can now increase your survival not only due to damage output, but due a new secondary damage mitigator in the form of damage absorption. I not only approve of the change because its making people cry, but because its actually a step up for my own play style.

This has got to be the most farcical troll post Ive seen in a while, and I read youtube comments.
Damage mitigator? AI shooting at drones instead of you lasts for all of 2 seconds. Also, ‘your own playstyle’ still has nothing to do with the rest of the playerbase who are now going to suffer from the changes.

They hid the player SR so it’d be harder for players to complain about the MM being broken. Almost no one would go after a match and look up the SR of each player in the match.
Developer’s Mentality: Let’s ignore problems and instead cover them up so nobody knows about them.
Hiding Low Player Population - first removing tier population bars from the launch menu, second removing entire population number from the main page, second removing population in each hangar from invasion map.
Hiding/Ignoring Bad Server Quality - Inaccurate packet loss readings, lack of US invasion servers, lack of good quality SAsian servers due to low population, changing of servers for teams in Invasion
Hiding/Ignoring MM problems - Not giving players what is needed to fix MM, Distracting MM problems with the new SR system, removing DSR that would expose bad MM
This is what you call muckraking. Deleting this post shows behavior similar to corrupt politicians.
