First Impressions of Datamine

**VSLL**

Well, after a few hours in Datamine, I gotta say...

I LOVE IT!

The Collective Death Squad and the Zion Zerg were going at each other and anyone they could find, which really kept me on my toes those few hours. The $info... And I discovered that Master Shadow is my best friend. I've only died once, and that was when I first went in and was being a noob by going by myself with Duelist loaded... >_<

What do you people think?

**ZippyTheSquirrel**

I gotta admit, The Collective made Datamine a lot more fun than I thought it could be. Kudos! :D

And then the 200k+ $info taps aren't bad either. ;)

**SampleNow**

It's not to bad, I realized the Archivist Proxy takes way to long to send people.

I also now think Master Shadow needs to fixed, like give shield jamming a chance to bring someone out of Shadow.

I don't need info so I don't datamine, for now theres plenty of people to kill,

but what happens when everyone gets bored and now one goes in there anymore?

**Nicksie**

I didn't do any mining but I did go exploring! And I had to run and hide from a few people :P It was fun! :)

**NightTrace**

Im liking it, and I'm up 2-1 on the TC Gank Squad. SMILEY

I'm guessing the info farming will keep people coming back in.

What happens if the info was nerfed? the info you get from tapping is nice but say it was nerfed, i dont think the free for all would keep eveyone in the datamine. Would be nice to see a boss put in there with some epic lootz or maybe some quest.

Yeah jard hopefully that's something they have in the pipeline, But dont forget this new area has opened up a lot of things for the devs IE story based bosses and other things. Or of course i could be dreaming

A boss and rotating rare loot would keep Datamine interesting for a long time.

TC Death Squad? I love it. SMILEY

**NightTrace**

They did good roaming around killing at random, I'll definitely give them that Satta, but some of them took things way to seriously.

Protip: If one person laughs at you and keeps running, their probably just trying to get a reaction from you. Sending them tells just lets them know they won SMILEY

Well, I was not there and cannot speak on that. However I think you would agree that TC has taken alot of hits as of late. There is bound to be blowback. All in all that is nothing compared to what we have to listen too from the haters.

However everyone is having fun and that is how it should be like. Now if the Devs can create something that will keep datamine attractive then they will gain and keep alot more accounts. Alot of old heads are coming back around to check this out.

Rotating loot would be amazing. Especially if they did it similar to that one arena in WoW where you only have a chance to get it every so often and you have to fight for it (or get there when nobody else is there).

Any of you on Myspace... could you leave 'phirst impressions of Datamine' as comments on the MxOSpace Profile? http://www.myspace.com/mxospace So new people can see what we're all saying. I think that would be a big help.
