Title: small update
Post by: SirEmi on October 26, 2006, 05:31:09 PM
- mothership and galaxy missions at lower levels where made easyer, to enable new commanders to complete them. They were too hard on new commanders. This does not affect higher level missions, just the first 3 levels of encryption and commander level.

well Emi, it does effect me, cus I get lower segments for missions now.. I used to get 1500 but I get less now (dont tell how much for which % cus the good calculators can calculate my commander level then :sweat)

oh, there was a bug that's been fixed there too, it gived 1500 segments to missions above 1000 segs, instead of 1500 for more than 1500, sorry.

there is a pirate base nearby...

raid it to receive 302 segments
 44 % 2h 46m  Accept

ya you need to adjust the numbers on that, it shows 302 segs but really gives 1500...

After you get to encryption 3 or commander level 3, it will jump to the old values, e.g. encryption 3 => aprox 30 mil reward

It's just to get the new players started, because they have no fleets.

Thanks Lamma, I'll check that out.

So what ur saying is that when i reach enc. 3 the rewards are noral? if so then it cant be right that i still only gets around 250k for 1 enc. missions


Title: Re: small update

it will still only be 15 missions to go up a level, so just do 45 missions total, and you are at e lvl 3 or 4, or whatever, but this is a very good update, because as soon as you start out, you have no fleets, and the lowest mission you can do is for 1.5 mil in normal missions, and 10 mil in galaxy.  now there is a mission suitable for just starting out, at least, although I get the feeling it is leaving a huge gap in between e lvl 2 and 3, though.

ars, not every1 gets 200 EXP for missions lol...
At start you only get 10 EXP per each.. :21:
So you need to do more then just 15 missions for a level up, and after you reached the 3000, it doesn't go up by 3000 again, but you need more ;)
So, it takes a bit longer there m8 :)

lol, ya, I see your talking about mothership missions now, I thought you were talking about galaxy missions there, sorry.

-edit:
ok, I was for this at the beginning, but once I saw just HOW MUCH they dropped, no.  this is way to far, and it is not just 1-3%'s either.  right now, my previous 1% is roughly equal to the current 70% now.  the only good thing coming out of this however, that I dare not forget to put up here as well, is that this should greatly encourage (if not just out right force) players to use galaxy missions when they have fleets large enough.  which will then elad to asteroid bases and controlling systems being off great value.

in the meantime, NOW can we have a mission multiplier for mothership contracts???

oh okay thanks for the info on the encounters...

A band of pirates are holding the intact remains of one of our motherships. Destroy this nuisance and your mothership gets 50 segments larger.

Maximum enemy fleet power: 66.000


that 66k power on a 1% was really scareing me as a bit, weak...

that update screwed sumthing up 4 me, ive lsot all my missions ships in missions that r well within my range, i went from having 150bill worth of ships, to having 1 ships worth 20bill after a few missions


Title: Re: small update
Post by: ars68 on October 29, 2006, 02:11:08 PM
how hard where the missions you were doing?  a 10 mil mission is still going to be just as hard as a 10 mil mission, that didn't change.  it was how much a certain % was worth that was changed.

ok i have a major problem.   when thezerg attacked me and i lost everything i have, i have spent all of my credits into the missionships. i only have enough to buy the first set missionships.  compare that to the current missions............its too overwhelming for my missionships, how do i m supposed to earn decent amount of credits if i couldnt do the missions?


Title: Re: small update
Post by: A^Bloody^Idiot on October 30, 2006, 01:22:16 PM
encounters and market are the only options left I guess...


Title: Re: small update
Post by: John.doe on October 30, 2006, 01:27:47 PM

i guess i'll have to do the markets  :wounded1:

:lol_sign: Same as last round? :P
But you could ask ppl to loan you money john, not me though I'm not helping any1 this round, and I don't wanna be helped :sweat


Title: Re: small update
Post by: John.doe on October 30, 2006, 01:40:12 PM
that'd  be real helpful. i'll ask around to see if they could loan me some credits.

thanks, ABI  :P

another side efect of extremely low power on galaxy missions: they still give items, which now would possibly mean a 240k credit mission, and a 10 mil credit item, lol.

anyway, lowering the hardness of the first couple ones, I agree 100% on, it's the insanely lowered amount the rest of the are that bugs me. except for galaxy missions of course.


Title: Re: small update
Post by: A^Bloody^Idiot on October 31, 2006, 04:35:28 AM
Every1 keeps saying that, while they try 50%, I keep saying just don't do higher then 30% or something if you can easy do 50%... :sweat
Always safer hi
I say everything is fine as it is :wow: cus Im going great :sweat and the other try to follow me and take risks and then they lose ships :))


Title: Re: small update
Post by: einstein on October 31, 2006, 02:08:46 PM
i dont understand the new system. u say that when i reach level 3 the mothership missions will go back to normal? but they aint! i still only get half a million for a 3%! how am i gonna resupply my 500million with those? it means 1000 missions! times 15 for turns! 15000 turns! thats insane! and then i also needs marines in them, or they are lost within a week... not good. not good at all. good for the new ones. but where i am its a problem. u aint getting creds fas enough to keep up with the top. without a way to do that there aint any fun in the game!


Title: Re: small update
Post by: ars68 on October 31, 2006, 08:48:50 PM
question though: what would you do if right now someone caught you off guard and wiped out every single ship you had, then raided your secret base a bunch of times.  what would you be able to do then? if the lowest mission was 100 mil, that would mean that would be the lowest mission you could do, and therefore have to do what you would have to do now... go to galaxy missions.


Title: Re: small update
Post by: Lammalord on November 04, 2006, 12:58:12 AM
emi, you still need to correct segment misisons so that they show the true value there all messed up, still...


Title: Re: small update
Post by: A^Bloody^Idiot on November 04, 2006, 04:17:06 PM
No, Emi said it would be easy and low reward untill level 3, that means (or at least I think he wanted to say) that you still get low and easy rewards/missions at level 0 and level 1 and level 2 and level 3, and that it's normal on level 4 again, although with encryption missions, the easy ones are level 1 and 2, but 3 is normal again...
