While much of the patch contained changes related to the event this week, we also have some other additions like the new CCR interface. I understand we're having problems with it at the moment, which are being worked on, but give us your feedback on the update and anything that seems related to it.

 

Go to DN1 for detailed information on Update 36.

Did the next stage of the SOE chat integration not make it into this patch?

Is there anyway to get Vector-Hostile to switch to just Vector, or at
least have the game recognize it so we don't have to type
Vector-Hostile. I like the sky, reminds me of home. All in all it seems
like a good patch.

Here's something that wasn't in the patch notes, and I doubt that it
was for LE purposes. Like we said, we love the long boring notes. SMILEY
They make my day.



One find:



Now, when a character uses the /jackout command, the animation is
different. Instead of being transparent, the character has a TV
snow-like effect while still being surrounded by the data discs and
such.




Otherwise, looks good. Loving the sky. Just don't forget to take it out
when the event is over. It kills RP when things still exist from old
patches after they've been played out.



Such as:



1. The Collectors for Zion, Merv, and Machine. Really folks, does anyone have these Letters anymore?

2. The green codes in the sky were there also for days after the event had ended with finding out the traitor.



But I am very happy we are using the Helo now. I was starting to think
the Devs were just lazy and it had no real stoty influence. Boy was I
wrong. LOL



Good work! Keep it up!

One minor thing that I'm not pleased with:

Stop changing my glasses!
I used to wear the nice, black ones provided by having an Archivist's book equipped. That, of course, was nerfed for some reason (confusion related to the glasses, I guess). So, I took off my Widow's Moor Lenses and started wearing plain old White Sector Sunglasses (The same as what you'd get with the book, and one of the first glasses choices in the game). That was all fine and well until I logged in this morning to find that they had inexplicably gone rainbow.

All I want, is a nice, male pair of black sunglasses. It completes my character. Now, I'm not saying we should get rid of the rainbow shades, as they're actually kind of a cool effect.

But rather than changing the appearance of an existing item, could we just keep the old version and add the new? Would that be so terrible?

I'm sure a lot of people don't care what they're wearing while they play, and they won't notice or mind this change at all... But some of us like to look a particular way, in the spirit of the Matrix, and when you suddenly change the look of certain items on us... Well, it's a bit frustrating.

This is the first time I've ever bothered to post a complaint like this with a patch. As I said, it may seem like a silly thing to some people... But hey, I pride myself in having created a certain look for my character, and I need a pair of black shades for that look. I can't believe there aren't a single pair left in the Matrix (unless you're a female of course. Their shades remain pretty cool).

Agreed!



I was mad that the Archivist Books don't equip sunglasses on you
anymore. Not only did they look cool, but it was nice to hide those
ugly Code Launchers behind them as well.



Now I need to free up another slot to buy a regular pair of those glasses.

Im
still at work so I cant jack-in but I wear those glasses as well and it
would suck if they changed them.  Can we get a clarification on
this change?

I am very pleased that SOE seems dedicated to this game. Their first
three updates have been good.  The first Zion Crit I had to start
over because I stared it in richland and the mobs were 47
::d'oh::  The crits were fun and challenging if you ran them
alone. all in all good job.

as i've stated in my other discussion post, the /ccr DOES look cool, but 90% of it doesn't work


I really don't like seeing SWG or EQ2 questions pop up on my FAQ search, and the category/subcategory feature when submitting a ticket doesn't work.  I believe now this doesn't access the old existing system, rather it is now part of the SoE archive for all it's games.  This isn't going to help problems if it links to that system.  If it could look like it does and do it's php/asx or whatever scripting it is, then it would be nice.  Else anyone searching for a faction bug has to sort through all the SWG stuff. 


Also the item detail thing
Non-Tradeable is now "Cannot be given to other Characters"
Non-Sellable is now "Cannot be given to Non Characters"

Was this really necessary? Come on.  Who really needed that to explain the item in more detail


3rd item: Awakened Glasses/Jacket.  Animation still broken.  Ability to use them in the hotbar and execute without wearing them is still broken.

Is
this implemented yet?  Has soe said they would implement
this?  The answer is no and outfit shells has nothing to do with
what we are talking about.  They changed the look of our
glasses.  How is an outfit shell going to fix that?

Again, i never said i was on about the glasses being changed, i was posting in response to the archive book complaint.

 

And of corse no1s said shells are gonna get implemented, exactly why we should make the idea heard and understood.

 

Things will never change unless we make them
