Reboot timing? - Lump Lorry - 12-12-2006

Hi,
I'm not sure if this is the right place to put my post. While I'm playing I usually find only empty wrecks. I guess it depends by the fact that I live in a GMT+1 zone and when I start playing a lot of people have already been around taking everything.
It might be more fair to change sometimes the server reboot timing in order to give, to people living in different time zones, similar chances to find wrecks filled with items.

Let me know what do you thing about this proposal.

There are two reasons why thats happening. One, most codenames were moved and re-hidden in different, new, wrecks.

And even before that, there are a few people who will fly around and get asap just to mine it so they can have it and no one else can. I suggest getting nomad or level 9 guns. Most level 9s are almost as strong as codenames. Nomads are weaker, but almost no energy need.

I guess that the second reason you quote is the one. Cause I have already explored almost all the systems, the nomads and guards systems included. And this is exacltly why I was suggesting to change the time of reboot from time to time. In this way all the people around the world can have a chance to be the first arriving to that place.

Post Scriptum: since I'm not a native english speaker, I hope you will forgive any mistake I could make.

For having English be your second language, you sure can write well in it. :)

Reboot timing is ok. The codenames are supposed to be rare secret projects, not something that can be farmed daily.
I prefer to leave the reboot time as high as possible so the gameplay is not constantly interrupted by a reboot.

In fact, i have only 5 codenames, 4 in a pre 4.82 fighter, and one in my fl fighter. It's hard to get them, and i prefer it stays that way. Remember that in vanilla, the idea of putting the codes in 13 was so the player can get them when passing through there during the SP. For multiplayer, that is pointless.

For the farmers... well, thats not illegal... but i was thinking that as there are farmers waiting to get the weps, there can be pirates waiting to get the farmers...:)

Good! I strongly support the building of "Pirate fields" (snd/or "BH fields"... not all the players are hostile to pirates) around codenames! :D

I only have 4 codenames... Two from just after the player-wipe, and two from, well, being bored.:P
