yep, advanced components are all optional, like doc/CM stuff

Yes, and don't forget - you don't have to make anything you don't want to.


Personally with the increased cost of Probots I wasn't willing to take on the additional factory time/resource requirements to make stims as well. Since we won't even need the D's and really even C's at this point, I'm going to leave it up to the newer DE's to stock on the bazaar.

newer DE's won't be able to make good enough B's, without the master level experimentation you can only get about 600-700 energy out of a B, not sure what you can get out of a C since I don't have the skill yet.

Hehe I more meant "newer" as in, "haven't been a MDE for six months" hehe, not so much low-level DE's. I guess I've just gotten old and crusty, but it takes a lot for me to do anything but make factory probots these days. It's why I don't make BH droids - I simply don't have the space nor desireto take on the extra work for theminimal financial gain.


In the case of the stims, didn't someone say the delay for healing is only a few seconds? If that is the case, thenit may be more cost-efficent to use multiple Stim B's instead of a single StimC, at least for now. Remember, no one (in their right mind) isgoing to puteven a new Probot against a Krayt - so I don't think they will be put into situations where they truly need all that power in a stim.

Jenden--you really are doing a fine job here - thankyou


Without wishing to raise any particular point..where is DRASHK? For heavens sake Correspondant, you could at the very least be making comment from a master point of view...poor Jenden is working his ''''''off to give us info and where are you?


Vid Card still damaged..I dont think so.


Unkind--maybe


True--certainly


Sorry and all that, but you are about as useful as a chocolate teapot at this time.

He has been on TC, but really aside from what he's posted already and the few changes/updates I've made there really hasn't been anything much for him to add. Half the info I've put up here has come from him, I've just been putting it on the web site and theres no reason for him to duplicate information by reposting it here.

Sorry all, but thats not nearly good enough


So he is contributing..good


But where oh where is his representative role..hiding in the shadows is not what he is supposed to be doing.


Where is his input to Sodan's thread either?


He is not doing what a correspondant should be doing, and you all damned well know it.


So does he.



Graphics card bull..if it takes that long he can invite me over the pond and I'll bring one with me..sheesh

We don't know what he's doing.


I've learned heated respones to "X isn't doing their job" or "Blah should be doing something" only back to make me look like a fool when X and Blah come back with results they've been working their arses off to get, just not in front of my face.


We don't know what Drashk is up to, he may be spending all his time explaining to the Dev's why the DE forums have turned into a Dev flaming board and a DE trash-talking forum for the most part lately. Or he could be in a heated discussion with the Dev's on what WE really would like the DE profession to turn into. Or he could just be disgusted with the whole thing. Or he could be trying to get details on TC.


The point is we don't know yet, let us avoid judgement. Most of the posts lately haven't had a lot of point to responding to other than taking out our own frustrations.

Skye


I aint gonna fight with you, but I saw your post re: weaponsmith


I have zero respect for your opinion based on that..and I will not respond to you again.


A correpondant has a job in the community...full stop. (not period by the way, thats what us women have..completely different)

A correspondents job is to be the community voice to the devs and the other way around, not to report on every little change with new patches. They weren't given correspondent terminals on TC so they could get info to report back to the players, they got them so they could recreate bugs for the developers. Could he be a bit more active on the forums, sure, but just remember, he's a paying player too. He already has to argue with the devs on our part (and from the few times we've all gotten to be correspondents for a bit we've seen he has been fighting for us), he shouldn't have to come back here and listen to players bitching at him too. He may feel there's nothing more to add to sodan's thread, there isn't really anything for him to add to this thread, and there's no point in posting for the sake of posting.
