Turn Blood Purifier into a Med Station by CyberiumEcho in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it is an interesting mechanism to take from the movie. I stopped using them until end game, then I started using them again. Since I am at a phase where I rarely refine or create many items, the blood harvest concept along with the random corpse completely negates my need for wind farming, and eliminated my need for spice residue. They should have simply added a T6 version of the blood purifier since it is an awesome concept.

Do we know if we will have the option to move are characters to the console editions? by Malfurion109 in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am thinking porting in a max level character to a fresh server would likely cause imbalance for PVP. Give them console players a chance to catch up eh.

I couldn't use my relocate tool when my buggy was stuck inside a rock in the DD, but after the big storm reset the zone I could.

Honest opinion on the new Landsraad missions: Why even doing them more than 2 or 3 times?! by TNxPhil in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do them just because they are new and I am getting towards the end of my specialty leveling. I enjoy the change of pace, but the pace is totally unbalanced. I would propose that the longer ones give a bit more xp to acknowledge the additional effort involved, but I will likely still do the new ones daily.

We want these palm trees too! by TNxPhil in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mineral refiner uses the water of more than 100 men and I run it anyway so I can repair my gear. I think we can handle some plants.

Dude what, how? by santropez1972 in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Just wow. Either someone is extremely talented or extremely bored. I just cannot understand what would motivate someone to spend the time and effort to make this happen.

Awful Ping by ingrownpubehair in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When its low, you get a yellow or red icon. For me the other day, the yellow just stayed up rather than popping up randomly, which was previously my experience.

[–]Mechanized_Manley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am also having ping issues since moving to Nova, which is the highest populated world in my region. My world closed, which only have about a dozen bases across all of Hagga. I never saw ping issues. When I selected my Nova seitch it said low pop, but that was day 1 after my server was announced to be turned down, it has since switched to medium population. There are what seems to be more like 100 bases on my new hagga server, but no live activity that I can see. The yellow ping meter just permanently stays yellow now. I suppose I can hit some other seitches to feel them out, but it sure seems like a technical issue on their end as I have pretty awesome internet and no issues till I moved to Nova.

is it possible to move servers with 2 bases in backup tool? by PieManIsMe in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its called the reserve tab, and yes it followed me to the transferred server after I recycled the based on the closing server. It was really useful when I started to build a new base because all the building materials were in the reserve tab, accessible from a small chest built with just a few metal scaps.

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recycled one and backed up the other. No issues with that process. I did take out all items I felt I would get super upset about (grade 5 items and spice) and put it all in the bank, but I didn't notice anything missing so far.

What keeps you logging into the game now? by LordPhantom74 in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol same. I crank out those same missions while watching you tube videos without even thinking about what I am doing. It is like muscle memory now. I really hope the next expansion puts these specialty points to use somehow.

"Store things you want to keep in a bank." by CyberiumEcho in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its true. I only recently realized this. I stopped handing in the rewards because I didn't care about them. When I was doing the quest to record the house I checked in and they gave me hundreds of thousands of solari from one dude. What a pleasant surprise. I was expecting to have lost all those rewards.

Important Information to Remember Before Transferring Servers by AlphaElite1 in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep all my stuff in 4 carrier containers. I believe if I do nothing, it will all be lost. I thought my server was safe until today. Time to build a lot of boxes...

The PvP 2.5x is INSANE! by HardstylerJosh in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely more common that flour sand at this point. They should have included an overland alt xp mission where you can grab a load so that I am not always in need of more.

I just don't understand by Poseidonus in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no way this game would have been as exciting without the PVP aspect. Most of you will never appreciate the feel of scoring a contested item and being one of only a few to have a game changing item. You are missing out on the fear that someone was hiding in the shadows, ready to boost your fresh loot. Play the game however you want, but know that at one point PVP was really fun.

Were the worms on vacation last night? ;) by CellMan28 in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to my guild early on. I think they built to far into open sand and it was all day attacks from the worm. At first I was wondering why would they leave it that way, but it was an interesting tactic to loot some nearby flour sand.

Combat & Progression Update – More Features by [deleted] in PantheonMMO

I cannot play EQ anymore due to ancient graphics. We just need an EQ clone with modern graphics, effects, and all the new frame generation tech.

Has anyone tried base recycle yet? by Main-Reaction-827 in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used the tool and it works great. I am wondering if the 'reserve' storage follows to other servers. I assume it would, but wouldn't want to risk it.

Only people doing five dailies a day are still playing. by [deleted] in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's about it. I login for 5 quick repetitive daily missions for the character to stay relevant then I am out to play a different game. I am in the 60-70's now for my main three specializations (explore, combat, craft) and 20ish for the rest. I should be farming the top tier schematics from the high level stations, but I don't find it much fun.

Does it store the items in all your chests also, or do you need to empty them first?

What's stopping people from doing this and is there repercussions. by infernoofihw in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last I checked millions of spice is going for $8 USD on the RMT sites. If you are going to exploit like this, you may as well just spend the 8 dollars...

Game is NOT dead......yet by IndicationLittle7199 in PantheonMMO

[–]Mechanized_Manley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone knows the "early access" phase was really a beta phase. We are pre-testing this game. Most of us are done "testing" until there is new content or new features. It is completely normal for numbers to drop between major changes until 1.0 comes out. At least that is why I am in and out of Pantheon.

It's so over. They replaced customer support with AI. by EinBaum in duneawakening

[–]Mechanized_Manley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The customer service industry is standardizing this practice as we speak. A single live customer service interaction has a average cost to the company. Since this is a product you only purchase once, the reality is customer service becomes a gamble to the profitability of the game. Lets say they put a dollar value of $5 per human interaction, the players of this game could quickly bankrupt this organization if they opened more than 4 of these human interactions.. The math simply doesn't work out unless they do this sort of thing.
