new player to the game, got my character up to level 6 SMILEY

have a couple of questions:

1. is there a bank, to store my items (i want to get into crafting a bit later on, when i am more familiar with the game, but in the time being i wanted to store all my crafting disks and supplies somewhere) ?

2. for the factions i have done some reading on all of them, and have read that if you pick zion, that agents randomly attack you , my question is, do they kill you ? and if so what happens after you die ? do you just respawn in xp debt or anything or is there some kind of penalty ? also how often do they attack you ? will being zion affect my gameplay as far as being able to move freely with in the different areas and cities ?

i think that is it for now, i might have a few more questions later on SMILEY

thank you all for the help !!

1. No, but you can email items to yourself and save them there for as long as you need.

2. Agents will attack any Zion in the Westview, International and Downtown areas. They spawn at lvl100 all the time and can possibly make you have to reconstruct. Once you reconstruct, you lose any code bits or fragments in your inventory and get a Death Effect for 5 minutes. The spawns are random and they only spawn on you OUTSIDE of buildings. They will never spawn on you inside a building unless you haven't tagged the Data Node for that area, the Agents will spawn at lvl255 for those.

Just to clarify on question 1:

There is a Code Archive that you can upload Code Bits, Fragments, Code Charges, Abilities, and the like too which has a total capacity of 250-ish.  You cannot, however, store Clothing, Consumables, and various other inventory items there, however.  So this helps the inventory pinch a tad, but as Gerik pointed out, e-mail is the 'trusty' backup.

Edit: Forgot to mention that there is a limit to VIEWABLE e-mails in you inbox (currently 55, I think).  So if you store more than that in your e-mail, but can't see some of them, don't fret!  They are still there, you just can't see them until you remove a few items from your inbox first (to bring them within the 55-viewable limit).

...Also, the Agents for now, spawns be caurse we (Zions) are at War against the Machines. The Truce has been broken once again. So somewhere in the near future when the war is over, I hope they don't spawn like they do now, but Zion's will spawn to attack the machines SMILEY

Thats actually handy to know about the emailing, I wasn't aware.  Though I am a perpetual newbie and am forever learning things.

Just thought i'd update this, as now after the recent patch the 55 viable email limit no longer applies. You can now see all 300 emails at any time as well as store up to 12 items in 1 email, makes things a whole lot nicer SMILEY

If you check out the right click radial menu on any hardline you'll see the option to 'upload', that'll send all your code bits and fragments (crafting components) into your code storage (accessable from the loading area or pulled from automatically when coding).

As for physical (non-uploadable) items, like its already been said, you can send mail to yourself (max of 300 mails with 12 items per mail).


2. for the factions i have done some reading on all of them, and have read that if you pick zion, that agents randomly attack you , my question is, do they kill you ? and if so what happens after you die ? do you just respawn in xp debt or anything or is there some kind of penalty ? also how often do they attack you ? will being zion affect my gameplay as far as being able to move freely with in the different areas and cities ?

As its been touched upon, once you leave richland you're at risk of agent attack even if you're not Zion (they just get some extra risk), be sure to hunt down the access keys/nodes for the higher level neighbourhoods you'll be veneturing into.

No xp or info debt on death, just a loss of any code items and a 5 minute negative effect on all your skills and abilities.

No difference in gameplay except the current chapters storyline missions, live events, organisation area and pvp.
