Hey TH, any word on the CR docs? Its been two weeks....
I know you guys really want to know the answer and the best answer I have now is "soon".The hardware work is going on, correspondents are reading your posts and we are doing a lot of hard core prep. When Tyrant says "go", I have just about everything laid out and ready. Its more about logistics than anything else. Once we put up the info, we want to be able to soak up all the feedback and act on it. We're also working on ways to get more people onto the sandbox. Its just a matter of having everything in place.
But this is a Tuesday Tip thread, so please lets stay on topic.
Same ol', same ol'

Hey TH, since I see you are trolling this thread...I was wondering for a future suggestion that you know how when your weapon reaches I think 25% you get a message saying that its at 25%, so you know its time for repairs or a new one? I hate when I wear armor and next thing you know "You get hit for 2000 dmg, you get hit for 1500 dmg....ect". Your armor broke and you don't notice until the big dmg comes in. You know its that time of yr when its time to get a new armor piece and I for one don't like keeping track of the conditions of each my pieces.
Would it be hard to have a 'ingame message' when any equipped piece of armor reaches a certain percent, like 25% or so?
That would be great
Thanks!!

Is this actually correct? Every piece of armor or weapon I've ever tried to repair has broken if it's been ABOVE 25%. However, if I wait until the item is down to below 5% (risky) I always get either a few minor blemishes or an almost complete fix.
I've heard stories from numerous people who do the same thing. In fact, I learned this trick from a guy on a kimogilla hunt and I've passed it on to a number of people since then.

How much does the quality of the weapon repair tool come into play when repairing a weapon. One would assume a 99% tool would give postive repairs 99% of the time. It seems to be random with the majority of repairs resulting in a significant reduction of the condition instead of a minor one.
