While it is a super great armor and probably worth any amount of money

I think that mindark rly needs to reconsider how exactly they push new content

Specialy arkadia is known for super nice armors you never be able to finish…

Most people i know who did quit, did not quit because of money, they did quit because there is only that much bs a human can take, caused by the “shorttime” solutions

Fix the game, hire someone with atleast basic economy know how, please…

and toulan..

Well this confirms my suspicions and im glad i put the breaks on the grind to unlock it. Tho from my point of view aside from the evident sucky nature of grinding 160kish in tt on each of the 2 taxed lands its a bit of bonus if your just grinding codex on said mobs, but its concerning none the less. Hopefuly by time my slow ass finnishes it youv abused the devs into getting there asses into gear. Best of luck!

Yes and the compensation they stated will probably not even be anywhere near what the current MU would be on those items.

But for example say the account bound Veceroy armour that would be a big loss because of how much in materials it costs to upgrade it to max. I doubt MA would compensate the value of all those materials back to the player so you do not get any loss from it.

I just used Viceroy as an example but all other planet items will be the same situation.

obviously - not, thats why not much players doing that + taxed areas in misiion

Isn’t the idea that you get way more the low ones so you can sell them to players who cannot survive in that instance or just want to upgrade with their wallet rather than their effort? Or are they not tradeable?

Those who cant survive there probably dont have the peds to do the grind on a 5 % taxed moon

I dont understand the greed, why do you put aditional tax on a Planet as a planet Partner if you get % of players turover on your planet already

I was going to comment when I saw the screenshot of the deposits but I chose to not say anything. But those deposits was a crazy amount in only what 2 month period.

At the end of the day it was your money and choice to spend it how you like. If that was me, I would not have invested that much for this type of grind especially on a planet that we still do not know if they will sign up to this new Genesis Probe scheme.

As we are all aware that planet partners that do not sign up to this new scheme will be deleted and all items removed and would be compensated, but again that compensation will be very very little I would imagine.

You should consider giving this project up and cut your losses. Arkadia doesn’t receive much love from MA. It’s likely the drop rate will remain as is.

You say money doesn’t matter here for you, what about your time and effort? You are already quite frustrated, which is 100% understandable.
How will you feel if you never manage to complete a perfected set? You could call it a scam, I just call it bad design.

It’s likely the way they want to allow a perfected set to be made through trading with other players other parts since it seems like you are the only real grinder there, your odds aren’t in your favor.

Think about it, there’s a high probability you won’t be able to complete a full set of perfected before the extinction level event assuming that Arkadia won’t join the genesis project. That means all your progress in the mission will be gone, we’re not even 100% sure if all the items of each PP will be “destroyed/deleted” either.

All we know is that we’ll get compensation, whatever that means - do you think it’s wise to gamble here?

I personally say no, but that’s just me. Do what you want and best of luck to you.

i was in arkadia UG last week tax is 3%… i have a quest there but there is literally no MU that repay 3% so i will not touch that.
Badgers, Togolossi, IFN Bots all of them carry no MU these days to grind on taxed.
even less interesting the moon

as per the reason, well PP sold the DEEDS for AUD and AMD so the tax is to pay “dividends” to the deed owners.
then we got the problem that tax and no MU has destroyed the cycling in underground (moon deed were a joke since start)

i wait for Genesis Probe news before THINKING To start the Stable Assassinator project
(my Viceroy costed me about 5k ped, most probably i will receive TT if the agreement fails)
same thing for Neff stim pack, for Zorra, for the imperium armors , not forgetting Shagadi, kulokhar, fore daggers, and Herman items.
this could lead to mass quitting in game.

and for? a useless space development project that exist just in the mond of some ND True Believers… :slight_smile:

[SIZE=4]Incompetence must be noted, otherwise we’re playing for nothing.
If I didn’t show you a screenshot with all my loot in 1 hour, you probably wouldn’t have believed me.
As I promised I show you my loot every day, but today [COLOR=rgb(247, 218, 100)][B]I had to abandon the mission because I didnt loot any pincer in 1h.

[COLOR=rgb(239, 239, 239)]What’s really interesting is that, although I wasn’t with KAAK in the team, the moment I entered in the dungeon, I entered in his dungeon !! (as if it were public).
Game didnt charged my 12 badges, but I entered the man’s instance..I entered over him :))
Imagine you pay 12 insignia entrance fee , and in the middle of the dungeon some other guys join you !

People may hate me for saying it but if PP’s don’t switch systems and no longer exist compensation for items will probably be based on tt value

That is what I think too. Going of past compensations that MA have done in the past. It is always usually based on TT values only and not MU. Only time they do pay MU is certain circumstances. Because there is so many items in other planets, I do not see MA affording TT+MU compensation.

thank you for sharing this info about spec ops… and thank you for keeping the lights on at mindark

Not really the “main talking point” here but, That’s pretty much how several other instances work too (like molochs), if you don’t start it with yourself as the only team-member and then disband team the moment you enter, then its a “public” instance and other people can join in as they see fit.

Only downside with the “empty team” variant is that if you for some reason exit the instance, you can’t get back in without paying again.

Why would they? They will slap a new name on your items and leave the stats as is. It is ridiculous to even think they would just compensate players with TT value of these. Sure they make mistakes but that would instantly bankrupt them which they know so it would also make it illegal.

So you did not read the thread announcing Genesis Probe? Go read it again and read the wording they used. They clearly stated “Compensation”

Planet Calypso, ROCKtropia, Next Island, ARIS, Monria, Howling Mine and Secret Island will all adopt the Genesis Project technology. However, any existing planet that elects not to transition to the new development tools will face a cataclysmic extinction event within four years ( Hold Over Period). Players holding deeds or items from planets choosing not to transition will be offered compensation options via other participating planets.

This was taken from the expansion thread.

Options via other planet partners. See? Didn’t you read it?

The only thing I don’t know how they are going to sort is estates. They won’t TT your armors and weapons. It would alienate such a large part of the player base so the game would be screwed.
