Bug reports / [MAP] Mountain Random Encounters
« on: October 01, 2014, 03:14:16 PM »
I'm hunting golden geckos for awareness on my secondary character in map encounters. My first character got the ten kills in an hour or so, spotting mostly animals. This second one has been trying for nearly three hours, and has only found two golden geckos. More to the point, most the spawns are humanoids, and rarely animals. (Insert anger at deaths to twelve man merc squads here) IDK if its just terrible luck, if the map spawn likelihoods were reverted without being in the changelogs, but I thought you might want to check it out.

Technical Center / Runs poorly
« on: September 28, 2014, 01:53:02 AM »
This problem vexes me. I could run 2238+teamspeak with no problem.
World of Warcraft + teamspeak = no problem.
Star Wars Galaxies emu+ teamspeak = no problem.
Mount & Blade warband+ teamspeak = no problem.
Everquest emu + teamspeak = no problem.
AOP + teamspeak = major fps issues. often drops from 40-60 without TS to 5-20 with TS.
All the above games are definitely fancier than AOP, except 2238, so whats the deal?

I'll save you the effort and tell myself to update my pc. My pc is a potato. My pc is made of wood.

General Discussions / Majority English speaking faction
« on: September 19, 2014, 11:13:26 AM »
I'm considering swapping factions to one that primarily talks in English, or does ZC in the afternoons to late nights of GMT - 6. I've got nothing against seeing other languages, but when my whole team is chatting in cyrillic for two hours I feel I have lost out on bonding. The brahmin boys take it further and often do ZC in cyrillic or the Polish language, and faction chat is 90% in these languages. So drop me a line on what the other faction chats are like.

Suggestions / Reimpliment combat timer
« on: September 16, 2014, 01:12:10 PM »
When there is no combat timer the guy who loads fastest has a clear advantage. He can freely hop out and back in zones, dodging his pursuers with ease, not even having to use walls or cover to help his escape. While ten seconds seems lengthy, half that may be ideal. My friends and I have lost several kills due to the prey loading faster. I can respect a man who escapes with skill, but not this zone hopping lameness.

Resolved bugs / [MISC] Containers
« on: September 16, 2014, 01:00:28 PM »
Hey on both my characters putting things in or taking things out of containers takes an inordinate amount of time. I can see the stopwatch waiting cursor for over five seconds, frequently. This issue doesn't seem to be a problem in the core, but anywhere else with containers I get this delay. I thought maybe I simply had too much stuff, but even on my new secondary character I get this problem. It's so slow I have started to drop my items in piles on the hexes in my room, and picking everything up then dropping it all is still faster than using containers. This issue arose about a week ago. The first week of launch it was smooth sailing.

So if that wasn't clear here is an example:

Fearvich loots 5 junk, Fearvich hurries off to his room to stash said junk.
Fearvich opens his container for crafting supplies, drags the junk over to the container window, hits all then enter.
Fearvich waits several seconds for the junk to actually move over to the container.
Fearvich cries.

Oddly, if I hit F1 while the stopwatch cursor is active, the loot will often rush on over to the container, but doing this with every pile is quite tedious. While a few second wait isn't a problem, when I have mountains of loot it takes me a very long time to drop loot off.

Game Tips & Guides / [Guide] Brahmin Boys Maricopa Ranch Legend
« on: September 11, 2014, 12:27:40 PM »
So you want to be a Brahmin Boy? Yippee ki-yay! You've made the right choice. We are the only Democratic society in Phoenix. We welcome dwarves, ghouls, tribals, and just plain ol' regular folk. As long as you work hard, you will be welcome in the Brahmin Boys. Our giant ranch can be confusing, but talk to the nearest tribal and he will take you to where you want to go.

Ranch Gate

Spoiler for Hiden:
1. Here is our greeter. Talk to him to get the quest for your own room.
2. The man in this building sells mostly tier 1 items, and buys most items.
3. This Brahmin Boy will give you the quests for awareness & silent running.
4. In this tent you'll find a quest about a man with a sick family seeking help.
5. The gate to our glorious "structure," Maricopa Ranch.
6. Here you will find a ghoul who literally buys everything. He also sells low-grade ammunition.
7. This guy recruits neutrals, or so he says.

Western Ranch

Spoiler for Hiden:
1. This brick building houses the lady managing the rooms, her husband who is fascinated by problem solving, and their friend who sells containers for your room.
2. Your very own room is here. None may enter except you.
3 Here lies our crafting stations and vendors. The ghoul in the north room sells crafting components, and the dwarf in the southern room will take relics from you for crafting schematics or reputation (1000)
4. As the sign states, here is our slaughterhouse and tannery. No quests or uses yet.
5. This house in occupied by a bored guard who will take books and give you caps.

Center Ranch

Spoiler for Hiden:
1. These stalls are a solid source of food, guns, armor, and ammunition.
2. Our saloon, where Brahmin Boys go to relax. A dwarf in here will buy your miscellaneous items from you, but nothing else.
3. The clinic will buy drugs and healing supplies. The clerk also sells healing supplies, radios, and steathboys.
4. This house will sell you advanced weapons, advanced crafting supplies and Brahmin Boy armor. Only after talking to Metzger after gaining 30k reputation.

Eastern Ranch & Council Building

Spoiler for Hiden:
1. Here is your first assignment giver, and main source of leveling. Assignments rank from A-F, hardest to easiest.
2. The man in power armor will give you ranger missions, from SS to B difficulty. This building requires 30k reputation to enter.
3. Our wise council. The heads of our democratic society.

Tips
1. Since I have only encountered normal damage and 2 guys with phazers in assignments, metal armor is the best armor to do assignments in. It holds the highest normal damage defenses.
2. Find a friend to do assignments with. You pull one assignment without being tagged by your ally, re-tag and do it together. Turn in your assignment, then have your friend pull an assignment while he is untagged, and repeat. This way you eliminate the 10 minute wait between assignments.
3. Food is really good. +5 healing rate for each food, capping out at 4 foods. It saved me countless times.

Please inform me of errors, suggestions, or things I have forgotten. This will be a work in progress, but after two hours I am taking a break! =p

« on: September 10, 2014, 12:35:58 PM »

General Discussions / Stay in the noob area
« on: September 05, 2014, 08:42:33 PM »
It is more brutal than any other FOnline.
Seriously restarting. Seems like the core is safer than the random encounters. Even when you enter a random encounter with no bolt, there are mobs. The zone line is usually on the other side of them. How these people are capturing zones I have no clue, but I've been raped several times. I rushed through the noob area and definitely shouldn't have. My butthole hurts.

General Discussions / Wonderful timing.
« on: September 04, 2014, 08:49:40 PM »
Two days ago I decided to play FOnline again, discovered 2238 closed, cried, was cheered up by there being other servers. This cheer turned to sadness as both English servers are virtually empty. Then viola! I discover this wonderful-looking game a day before it launches. It appears the launch will have a population rivaling/passing 2238, at least in the beginning, and I hope it continues long past that. How I've missed being stolen from, exploded, and getting player killed. I salute you all, and hope to see you tomorrow.
