I just stumbled across this - it doesn’t look much but there 8-9 of these as well as 20-30 on their way to the scene (the guys buddy is hidden in the picture on the other ship wing).

So was trapping fixed or not?
I get messages all the time that I cannot damage an animal, even though it can damage me :mad: and yet guys like this carry on as normal.
I guess they can move around down there and that’s why the system believes they are not trapped.
Btw, that area has lagged like crazy for the last couple of days for me. Anybody else seen this?
It looks to me like they are sweating them not killing them. Can you still sweat a trapped mob?

nopes u cannot 
umm i mean, sweat, i mean :tongue2: cough i don’t know… hides jumpsuit
they were sweating them, they had also collected a huge amount of other mobs which were just out of radar.
Even if these mobs aren’t techincally trapped, its still an exploit
Interesting I would have thought that this trap would be eliminated :eek: Suppose not. I wonder about the spaceship trap n of orthos… any1 know?
You could sweat a moob when its “fixed”, like you are standing on a very high place and the moob is down under you but dont have the streangh to climb up. :wise:
Hmm Gangsta R4 Life… LOL im mentoring him!! lol
I have had less performance in PE for 3 weeks now.
Must have been something in the 7.2 update that my 3D card didnt enjoy. 
But I think that this new anti trap metod is really good.

i’ve had signifcantly more lag as well…
also, yea i like the IDEA of the new trapping system, but not much fun when u get killed or loose $$$ in armour decay just because the system believes the mob is trapped…
I daren’t have more than 4 mobs chewing on me in case one “fancies” being trapped.
well for my 2 cents worth. First off when they had trapping the noobs had a reason for playing . they had a way to make a income. granted some people also used it to skill on higher mobs. this went on for years. So all thos people who have high skills who used the trapping method. Got to keep those skills. Ya thats ok isnt it. But thats another story. The new people have found it very hard to get sweat to sell for ped to the ubers who need it to make mindessence and so forthand so on. so after 3 or 4 days of trying they get fed up and quit. Sales to the newer people account for alot of the money that flows here. if you have everything you need nothing. So then the prices drop through the floor because noones buying anything. The only people that gained from the trapping method being removed was mindarc. More decay more damage repair. But in the same stroke they have cut off any new people wanting to play cause frankly it just isnt worth the aggrivation. Some just cant seem to understand that trapping was not a bad thing it was a way for players to advance. to feel like they had a shot at something. Hunters used that form to get bigger game even back in the time of the caveman. I might not sit with popular opinion with this.
But my first question is why were you there in the first place? Those providers do easily 100+ damage and killing them is not easy by any mean. And two what did this guy up on the wing have to do with your hunting? looks like there were plenty of them around. And I would not say you just happened by because that place you were at is on the way to nowhere in fact you have to go out of your way to go there. My point to all this is this. If you dont like trapping then fine dont do it. But please just play your game and let the other person play theres. What do you gain from even posting this stuff. nothing. There are alot of things in this game I dont see as very fair. One that the uberskilled peeps in the pvp ring skilling all night. I think if we are gonna remove expliots lets remove those too. how many of you are against that? I just really think its pathetic for mindarc to actually make shit shoveling the new thing for noobs in the future why? cause they cant sweat. And I for sure will tell you this . I would never play a game that would have me looking for shit behind some mob to get a couple pec.. So the next time you cant sell your ghost armor or your ap-freedom and you sitting there with a 700 ped jacket that you have to sell for 300 and cant even get that… Notice this… Where are all the orange people. They wont be here… They will be playing a game they can actually have fun with. Then who will you complain to about the little trap you saw someone using. Thanks for reading.
Vem I love you. 
I was gonna say almost the exact same thing, but vem beat me to it. Anyway, yes trapping is still possible for both sweating and hunting, it just takes more effort.
thiers actually a couple place u can still trap trox domi,alphas and aoas…
LOL
Thats me up there.
PPL let me sweat whats the problem?
The mob is not trapped it only can be trapped agains walls or other mobs.
He just walking beneat me and because of the hight he cant get to me but if ya once up there it is a good way to sweat and easy.

You have lured the mobs (I counted at least 5 between you and your friend) into combat and then put yourself in a position where it cannot rech you or harm you.
Therefore you are using an exploit to profit from.

And do you mind showing me how to do that so I can trap those in game?
you can trap armax bull and cow SE of the SC that is SW of the rig. There is a steep slope that you can lure them off and they climb it VERY slowly but they are still moving. Me and another guy were passing afk sweaters and killing there mobs.. I got 5 ped he got 41 :laugh:
I’m with vemon. I’m not sure exactly what the problem with this is. I COMPLETELY agree that there is nothing left for noobs to do now. I saw this the moment that brought in the whole trapping thing.
If i were a noob and started playing this game but nothing left to do but sweat and I couldnt even do that, i would play for about 10 mins and quit. Shoveling shit as the next big noob option… It insulting. Who wants to play a game where they get to collect shit for a few cents to sell to the VERY FEW actual land grab owners. Its not as though 80% of us own land. There is a VERY small percentage… so they collect shit all day then hope that one of the few land owners in the game wants to buy it.
I help noobs by skilling with my fap as they sweat, but i cant do that all day. I think that MA should have left the trapping for the goal of sweat in. They aren’t loosing any money because noobs sell sweat… they people who buy the friggin sweat are USING it to play the game not the noobs…
Got sidetracked there. Sorry for the rant..
Let the sweaters sweat!!!
Suicide
first off all i must say i dont really belive that this poo thing will be like a new noob system.. more like fruits.. you run around like crazy and from time to time you se something laying on the ground then picking it up.. so i think that sweating will still be the noob “proffesion”
second off all, im against trapping. i think its good that MA took an iniative, but the way they did it really sucks. instead they should change the mob behavior so that they notice when they are trapped and 1. running away 2. more intelegent mobs maybe run around that hill, rock or whatever it might be. 3. attacking someone else. 4. panicing, running around in cirkles, jumping screaming etc. that way people might sweat, we get a realistic system and people will most likely not hunt big mobs with man mph and without armor because of all the misses they will get, but they “can” if they have to sometime to survive (wich also is realistic).
thoughts?
