Thanks for the update Sparton. Hope ya'll can get the fix in for that. I have some immunity talismans, but then I'm downgrading some of my offensive options if I have to use them.

OK, cheers for the update ...
I know I shouldn't jinx it but I haven't had a MACL0 in weeks ... I have the odd PVTE something when the system thinks I have mor SoT than I actually have. But that doesn't hurt. I jus restarts the app - trooper points are not lost and so on. Can easily live with that - great job in getting this MACL0 stuff under control.
Thanks dude, very interested to see how BNW will work! It's a dungeon so makes me wonder if it will change colors daily like LoL and if it will give us chances for all like colored talismans or just materials. Obviously lots of questions could be asked but all will be answered in due time, I'm sure. Looking foward to it!
So ran into a weird bug but I don't know if it's been reported or is supposed to happen randomly... in a couple of battles tonight when going second in PvP, my power points stayed at 2 instead of jumping to 9.
One was against Askora (who doesn't have a char that steals power on defense) and the other was someone whos name I can't remember, but also did not have a char that can block power meter (don't think a char exists that can do that but that would be an insane passive lol)
Has anyone else seen this happen?
Bug or incredibly unlucky?
Just faced a team with Cyborg Eddie and twice Dead Eye kept giving him extra turns. First it was against my Grim Reaper Eddie, granted 5 extra turns and only stopped when Edward was toast, which then because of their Angel of Pain granted their team extra turns. It then happened again against my last character alive, Allied Bomber Boy, 4 times again until he was dead and I lost.
This has to have been a bug, right? Dead Eye is supposed to only have a 30% chance to grant extra turns.
Well, GRE uses slash 3 consecutive times like 90% of the time, with the same 30% chance to reset and trigger extra attacks. I guess the same happened with you just with different Ed/skill. I can imagine your frustration to see your team beaten to pulp without any chance to interact.
I have CG on defense with energy talismans. Could explain the loss of energy against my defense.
From observation, it seems like they've boosted the defenses chances. I'm guessing around a 20-30% boost for effects to proc on defense. That's why counterstrike was such a mess. Pay attention to how often some of the low probability effects proc for defense, and then it's obvious why higher ones seem to be going nuts. The downside to it, is that it means nobody's defense has really gotten better.:cool:
Making sure Sparton sees this - though hard not to notice.Quote:
Actually I'm abbadon. Can somebody tell me what is happening when they play me in the last couple hours? I turned on the game and saw 300 attacks and apparently I "won" all of them. I know thats imposble. Is the game freezing of something? I apologize i know this isn't right.
Maybe there need to be two Eternals this week ;)
Great of him to comment - something was obviously way off...
Not taking sides here, but one good thing about this game is how accessible the devs are. Any other game and you might have gotten a complete strangers account banned. Good luck with your mutiny. I hope it does force them to do something about it. Probably will just get your account blocked though with promises for a fix.
Would not bother me and it would be worth it to me.
I actually just came back this week after leaving for over a month. I can live without the game. The bunmer for them would be losing someone who actually spends decent money on the game that helps keep them afloat.
I was only kidding ;)
Just wanted to make sure Sparton aware and I know he watches this thread.
I guess it could but I would need to have the points in the first place lol... your team went first and my immunity was missing but I then noticed my points were at 2 like they would be when going first before your team even attacked. And Like Enti said, usually get the 3 points added after a turn... didn't happen. Strange indeed lol.
Thanks for revenging lol... never hear that. Tried your team again but went first this time... everything was normal.
The little tryst between angelkelly and clintilona is quite adorable, to say the least! ;)
On topic: I'm pretty sure that Sparton will see this issue and let us know his (and maybe the rest of the devs') stance on it. Those of you who act like he doesn't care about our concerns or that he doesn't want the game to become great seem to lack quite a bit of empathy. Sparton is one man, and he is likely following instructions from the higher-ups, and therefore has limited time on other issues he can actively work to fix. The whole dev team is likely quite busy working to bring BNW and Night City into existence, and, from what I've seen, the dev team is small! There's only so much they can do at any one time. I'm sure the attackers here on the forums wouldn't like it one bit if they were on the receiving end of their own incessant, vapid venom.
I echo Nicko's and all of you guys' concerns...I haven't been playing all that much in PvP but managed to slowly get up to just under 2000 points by playing only the daily allowance of SoW, with 1 refill yesterday for the 1st time, and then this morning I woke up to over 30 attacks, dropped all the way down to 1600 points. Sigh, over nearly 400 points lost overnight. I have been getting continuously attacked through this morning and afternoon and cannot make any progress.
Not all that thrilling for someone who has just returned back to the game and figuring out the strategy, but to be attacked so many times, MOST of which were not revenges but 1st time attacks.
Very demotivating for me and now makes me want to wait until Saturday before giving it my best shot to try to at least get to 1900 points.
Here are my stats:
Last week (only played on Friday and Saturday):
Points: 1732
Attack Wins: 87% (34/39)
Defense Wins: 50% (3/6)
This week so far (been playing all the days this week):
Points: 1693
Attack wins: 78% (88/113)
Defense Wins: 15% (10/68) [over 50% of these attacks were from last night through now]
Hey Ice, just a quick heads-up: the devs changed the way matchmaking works, so now the system attempts to keep attacks and defends as near a 1:1 ratio as possible. This means that it's far better to wait until Saturday to go all-in, while slowly making sparse attacks throughout the week to use up the free SOW. The more attacks you make in one sitting, the more likely you are to show up on attack lists and get spammed by other players.
Maybe it was the animation not keeping up with the calculation. I've seen that a number of times, where things seem out of order. Still should have gotten the 3 points added, and I don't have any explanation for a possible cause for that.
I don't recall doing revenge on you. I almost never revenge, as I'd rather clear a list to get the free SoW then worry about playing the revenge game. You do show up on my lists pretty often when I'm in the same rank. So, maybe just looked like it was revenge and was just me clearing a list. Despite the changes to level attacks/defenses, it still seems it's always the same names that show up.
Kaz maintains that it's fine (I guess it makes you Prisoner bait, too, not that those Harpies needed more reason to be shut down by him and an upcoming character), but we'll see. The Harpy only really hits that hard against other high-health Sentinels for the most part, and you can't impact the damage of it like you can an Assassin Golden Sun. Still an amazing character, I'll grant you that.
We're actually looking at the potential time for the next major update and considering posting some preliminary tuning notes ahead of that, but there's no planned changes for the Sentinel Harpy.
We are investigating. Thanks for checking with me.

Shit, I was hoping humor would shut you up. It seems your mental illness knows no bounds. :rolleyes:
Off topic: do I really seem 30? Damn, lol. I guess good grammar really does do wonders for you on the interwebs. Lmfao.
Also, to everyone else, yes, I'll stop entertaining angelkelly. My troll side just likes to have fun sometimes. :p
Now this is getting on the page with that gentleman who last time made a "one hit post" addressed to the devs,Nicko and Jofer (even i learned a new swear word or two from that post. that was a ballsy post! ^^)
Sparton?
@Tritium: My fellow trooper, i usually enjoy reading your opinions on the subjects involving the game but that picture is rather uncivilized...
Always imagine that there is a 10 year old boy sitting somewhere on the other side of the planet and reads through these forums, trying to learn something about this exciting game he just started to play. would your picture improve his knowledge of the game?
5 of them actually. That's how many battles it took me to realize those mofo OP sentinel harpies is immune to stun, taunt, freeze etc.
As a real sportsman you only revenged twice - oh wait, darn, you can't do more than two.
But don't worry, in a couple of houres there is a reset and I will prolly still be in your revenge list. Up y... I meen, up the Iron.
Aw, christ. Well, when you put it like that, I can see how it comes off bad. I normally assume that everyone who comes here is an adult (I mean really, look at most of the posts. Nobody here is new to cursing), and therefore don't censor myself. I found that picture after a quick google search for funny memes since I didn't truly feel like responding to angelkelly, but wanted something that might shut her up (humor tends to do that!). Unfortunately, I was wrong. Also, it made me laugh, so I did it partly for that reason. Humor is something that should never be taken at face-value (oh boy, you wouldn't want to look into George Carlin...).
I won't delete my earlier post unless the devs feel it should be. Not one to try to cover up things in order to present a better version of myself to others ─ especially people I've never even met. Nobody's perfect. Also Miz, dammit, you made me "lose" that argument haha. Nah, I did it to myself. Thanks for keeping me in check, mate. I'll "slightly" censor myself in the future (keyword "slightly", nothing's fun if people aren't even being themselves). Also, I'll stop baiting angelkelly (gonna miss out on lots of fun now, but oh well lol). Toodles. ;)
Yeah guys, clean it up or I'll start handing out temporary bans.
(And thank you Tritium for acknowledging that might be a bit far, and angelkelly for self-deleting some posts.)
They may not be an explicit counter, but a lot of what that character does can make a mess of anyone's strategy. We'll reveal more as we get closer to that release.
Ah yes, depending on talisman build, that is correct. I guess we'll double check the Harpy's scaling, but hopefully this is just people being excited by a new character with new toys, as there's a lot of other fun stuff people can do right now, and will be able to do after the next tuning update.
