get back to us when you have farmed a Patchers Headgear solo and ask for more content ^^.
Solo content is fine, but there are always ways to get the content that isn't soloable, tell other groups to farm it for you and pay them large amounts of info which is soloable. Creating new content is fine and dandy but you need to look at the down sides to new content, there are by far the best items in this game are soloable, lvling up you can get old content that has been around for awhile by yourself and it doesn't take much effort just some luck and skill.
PBs are easily soloable, I've done a box 4 on my own and finished it, it's all about how you do it and how good you are at doing it.
Sleep walkers are also soloable, to some degree, the Ninja stuff is also soloable to some degree aswell, I say to some degree because finishing them takes forever, to get a pink gi is almost nearly impossible to do soloable though with the right load, buffs, heals, you may be able to get pretty high alone...
I agree there is a slightly higher need for soloable content that is acctually worth it, however, it should take awhile to get, perhaps another huge grind like the Corrupted quest only more soloable?(without the means of a second or third account...) Something for maybe idk a black version of the patcher's headgear?
Or perhaps the devs could make a new quest for a instant lvl 50 enhanced gun?
Maybe a new quest for a Gender pill? Something like the stat hack mission but gives you a pill to change your charactor's gender? (idk why someone would do this, perhaps for fun or just rping purposes?)
How about something like I suggested in my Black Market Collectors idea thread? This content would be entirely soloable just would take awhile to get.
How about more npcs spawns like in the Uriah hideout but put elsewhere and have a better drop?
idk Soloable or group content, anything is fine as long as it's something new to do inbetween pvping for a month straight.
I don't have any trouble finding groups on Recursion.

Come on... a quick mission to get an item then a 2 day timer on it? Content should keep people busy for a while and it should be fun doing it, or at least inetersting. What you have described doesn't keep people busy (especially waiting 2 days to go for another mission) it doesn't sound long enough to be interesting at all and having a quick mission for it would just make it boring. In fact what you proposed isn't new content, its just a different way of filtering more clothing items. Now having a decent length mission to get a consumable sounds fine (as long as there isn't a silly timer between it).The Elite commando's gear is soloable (forgot about that, thanks Pylat) and doesn't take hours to grind, plus you get the item at the end.I think the best content is like the PB arcs, soloable with an interesting story to them but require help from some people at certain points.
And idea 2 (that i just had)maybe we could put in some sort of lottery system, so lets say you get a guy/girl in mara c who you can buy tickets off you can only buy a max of 10, the tickets could increase in price so the new player with 10k info could buy 1 at 1k then the second one could cost 10k and the last maybe 10m or some thing, and every week there should be a payout via email to the winning ticket, the prizes could either be 1st 2nd 3rd or just a winner and a fixed prize fund of maybe 100m to the winner or a collective of the amout of tickets sold i think a fixed one would be easier to do, and also the newpaper stands you see about could post the winner or some thing ?Anyway i think these 2 ideas are very good please add to them untill the idea and fine tuned and we can put them forward (not sure if i should make a saparate topic for idea 2 but ill see how it goes)oh and just to point out this is not about bashing the group content thats been put in if its so hard or not and stuff so please dont post about it and post about the ideas and how to improve them k thanks
This idea is just wrong. Firstly there is already far too much info in game and not enough to spend it on (unless you do what i did and pay 350mil for Security Gear). This game needs a money sink.. not more info. From what your saying someone can make a stack of cash without doing a thing? So lets say the low level gets a ticket at 1k and they win.. they get the full bhoona of say 100mil as you said. How can you justify a low level getting that amount of info when they havent done anything in game to achieve it. I am a strong believer that you should earn your info. I farmed numerous Patchers to get very close to the billion i had at one point. That afforded me to get the collectables i wanted in game. Now i had to work hard to earn my wealth as do many others in game. Even taking the time and effort to farm info in Datamine where you need the lug to get decent info is justified. You have to protect yourself (well at least used to .. no idea what happens there now) from other people wanting the lug.
This idea you seem to have of gimme gimme gimme doesnt sit well with me. Earn what you get! Work for it. If it takes longer.. so be it. Thats what makes the reward worthwhile.
A lottery is something that can be player run, in fact there was once a lottery done on one of the servers. Not sure if it still is though. The fact is, imo Dev time can be better spent on required game fixes, story, content that has people doing something etc... then creating not only a vendor but the code to implement this in the game as I'd assume it would need a new dynamic database blah blah...
Also an official redpill lottery just doesn't seem to fit with the whole Matrix universe...
This is a development discussion so if there is something wrong or out of place, people are perfectly entitled to say why. If you can't take critisism and you don't feel like defending your ideas against other people who also play the game then stop posting them.

double post
Lotterys have been successfully run by players before. Deviljonny ran the first one on Vector a few years ago, as people buy more tickets, they spend more money. That was before datamine, however, which is what they call 'earning money doing nothing'. :p Edit: The only thing I think will ever be done in terms of 'solo content' is another quest like the headless shades. It probably won't be too powerful, but maybe the items you can earn will look cool and might be advantageous if you're a lowbie.Edit2: Also, people don't have to develop your idea. Thats your point. They can point out what they dislike about your idea and why they don't think it will work, it's up to you to show why you think it will. If they don't like the idea, they're hardly going to push it to try and make it work, thats your responsibility.
