Earlier today Drisena held a meeting in the Zion Construct. In the meeting Drisena states that she is holding a contest. The top 2 Faction/team to collect the most Agent tie clips get's a prize, and the one's in 3rd and 4th place get a special operation, I think it was ( wasn't really paying attention, I was recalling our people into the construct). Also, make note, we have to take a screenshot with a time/date (/time) of the Agent's (Level 100's) we've killed. All screenshots must be sent to Drisena. We have until August 28th to collect as many Agent Tie Clips as possible.
Da6onet, Alchemist, NoCry1, or Destyn; If this information is wrong, please post ASAP. Remember, I was busy porting and was in /tell hell (omg plz hurry recall meh, etc etc, sigh lol). :p
Edit: Recursion had a similar contest too. Here's the link: http://forums.station.sony.com/mxo/posts/list.m?start=0&topic_id=36300015244#36300292570
I'm not sure what the winners got though.
-
would point out that tieclips should be sent to drisena for her to hand over to ghost (who is arranging the event); also, photos should presumably be posted on DN1; she was not clear.
tally ho
-
oh, and forve the double post but when sending tie-clips include details of your "team" - no more than 10 people - in the email.
-
Also, there was brief news about Ghost being attacked by Agents during a recruitment mission; and Soluma is apparently sick and out of the simulation.
-
Broin, Dmax, ManicVelocity and myself took down three agents last night.
We need to get more people on to do this. It took us 15 minutes to kill each one; not very efficient indeed.
-
Illface, Tonyjaa, Bossnake, Brembo and I spent most of last night holding off the reds. With any luck we'll have more joy this evening and won't keep getting bloody knifed.
-
This weekend is going to be a bust for me on this... I believe we have a limited amount of time to do this. Let's make a push on it starting this coming Monday.
-
We have until the 28th
-
Well word has reached me that there will be RED players trying to capatalize on this Zion event by using their alts to pass their tie clips on to our liasson. I'll be talking to her about this, but let's start collecting these things and just swamp the damn field.
A good group is one person to IL, a healer, and the rest hackers. Pretty much how we have done the Nodes.
I plan on doing a big push with this next week, but this is a whole factino effort. The reward is a meeting with a LIve Event player and it is for the whole faction so it doesn't matter who gets what and turns it in. Set loot on random or alpha, take your screenshots with time stamps and, group members and send them in.
-
And remember to report all suspected spies to Drisena at her request, I guess that includes the douches on alts
-
So here is the deal with this... If you farm in a group for these and the loot is on random or alpha remember to /time and screenshot your kills. Sometimes you may not get the Agent was killed by whomever. In that case do a /time right after someone searches the body. Also make sure when you take the screenshot that you have your mini team menu open so that confirms who was there for the kill.
If you recieve the tie clip you need to email Drisena the tie clip with a brief description. Something like...
Another one for the FA collection... Operatives invovled (list names)
Then you need to go to DN1 and send a PM to drisena of your screenshot. Don't post it on the boards... send it as a pm.
-
I will be AFK for the weekend, so I won't be available to provide my heals.
Sorry. :(
-
If you have already sent a tie clip in please post in this thread how many you have sent.... If you haven't but do later post how many so we can keep a total.
-
posted one; having trouble sending link of photo to drisena. photobucket something or other is required and I shall do this.
-
I have sent 1 tie clip thus far
-
I tie clip. I know Dmax has sent in 2 or 3, also...
-
I'll be in the Electus tonight if anyone wants to get some. If I don't answer send me a message at the bottom of TS.
-
Yeah I sent 3 so far.
-
Yup it appears that on the Recursion version of this everyone involved got a perpetual item of the winning team... They however got 80+ tie clips and I think to win we should shoot for that number and more.
WHICH we are way way behind... SO.... GET IN GAME AND LETS START FARMING
-
We have 9 days left. If we do 8 or 9 a day, we should be able to get first or second place.
We just need people on. A team of 6 could take them out in 5-10 minutes.
-
Farming went really well tonight... With a full team of 6 we were taking them down in under 5 minutes. We ended up with about 15 tie clips tonight.
Everyone who participates in this will show up on my screenshots and will be acknowledged to Drisena as helping out. Again on Recursion everyone on the winning team, who played a significant role, in helping out got a perpetual item.
I will be coming into game this week around 7-8 FA time. Sometimes a bit earlier to farm these things with people. I will probably also be in game on Tues. and Wed. Day.
Good work tonight everyone... Let's keep it up
-
everyone on the winning team, who played a significant role, in helping out got a perpetual item.
****ing **** ****
-
hard for me to be on the same time as you guys; i shall be on from 2200hrs (at least) this week however. am always up for farming; might not be in TS but will be in game (harry does not appreciate your voices quite as much as me).
-
I should be able to do Thurs/Fri night with you Nocry, we could always pull in some of the regulars from Mara C to assist
-
I know it is hard for some of our Euro people to be in game during the times we are, so.....
I am dedicating Tuesday and Wed for them. I will be here in game early sometime probalby around 9 or 10 FA time and will hang around until about 2 FA time.
I think you guys are 6 hours in front of us so sometime during these times you guys should be able to get into the action. I'm on right now and Adad is here. It only takes 4 people to farm these things... 5-6 people and you can crank out about 10-15 in an hour or so. More than enough to qualify you guys as part of the group who helped out.
If anyone else can come in Tue. and Wed. during these times post here. Also I'd like to do a later night as well for Sorrows and a few of our other members who can't get in during the regular hours.
WORK it out people... figure out when you can be here and hop in. Don't just look on TS and think... Awww no ones here it's pointless to go in game. Chances are all the other dopes who want to do this are doing the same thing. Log onto TS get in channel and people will show up....
Oh and by the way ML is getting into this pretty heavy as well so we really need to get moving
-
I'll be there Tuesday and Wednesday to help out.
When I was in-game Saturday night, I saw a lot... a lot of dead agents lying around downtown. Sometimes in clumps of two or three. Let's get crankin'.

Those are the level 255 agents that spawn because the Devs haven't fixed their spawns yet. The level 100 agents disappear after being looted. No need to worry. :)
-
Count me in for Tuesday.
Maybe Wednesday aswelll.
-
right chaps and chapplettes; just had a little meeting with drisena who tells us that the rules of the contest have changed a little. I summarise per the below:
1. top 2 teams will be invited to special op (nothing new here)
2. a team can at most have 8 operatives (was 10, now 8)
3. each team must designate a team leader
4. team leader will "at the end" designate their 8 operatives
5. team leader's discretion to list them and those operatives do not have to be in the kill shots.
it seems to me therefore that we need 2 FA teams (or at least leaders who have sent in the most clips). I would like to be on either of those teams but tricky as it is now midnight gmt and only the good mr clark and I have been on. She said photos should still be sent before the end.
tally ho
-
Bah... That kind of isn't what it originally was... I spoke to her today though and she did state that things may have to change on it. Didn't know it was gonna change so much...
-
Oh that's just wonderful. That'll be great deciding who gets them and who doesn't.
-
thing is though; take two of the highest tie clip gatherers from FA and assuming they had support that is a total of 16 active FA who can do the missions.
-
Well broin is doing all the loots.
So does this mean that some how our vector team will not get perma rewards like recursion did?
-
Why am I not surprised it has changed. >.>
-
Again we must leave it in the capable hands of our 2nd in Command because he is holding all the cards...err tie clips.
-
So does this mean that some how our vector team will not get perma rewards like recursion did?
I hope not. Maybe she mis-spoke. I'll be really pissed off otherwise. I don't care how cool the "mission" is. I want a damn perma!
-
she said nothing of hte perma rewards chaps - hate to assume but the assumption must be that the individuals get the rewards (as nominated by the 2 "captains").
-
Meh, either way well be the winners! We can do it people!
-
Yea I dont know what else to do than to get 2 teams going, but that will kill our progress. Otherwise, we put it up to Broin who his 7 teammates are...I don't know how else to decide it but to look at all the shots and see who was there the most or something. Other ideas?
-

That automatically eliminates those who sacrificed to heal. Maybe we should do it for those based on how often they were online to help, rather than who has the most final kills. As we all know, that is largely based on luck rather than on skill. Just ask those who got the Assassin mask.. and those who didn't.
-
i agree with ana; dont want to disadvantage healers. Best thing is for the 2 highest current tie clippers to be designated as "captains" then when either one of them is on to give as much support as possible. Remember, screenies of kill and final confirmation at end of programme as to "team" members.
-
I think the two team idea is great.... HOWEVER from what I understand ML has been pounding these as well and have over 80 which we dont' even have yet. So I'm gonna say we need to turn them in as one big unit.
As far as selection we'll try to do it the fairest way as possible. Personally I'd like to see the ones who have dedicated the most time get in it... So that would be out top 8. If we could just have 2-3 more spots I think that would get everyone and maybe that's something I can talk to Drisena about... Anyways we'll see how it goes.
-
I will be gone until next Tuesday, which, unfortunately, is the last day of the event. I'm sorry I scheduled college visits on these days.
Good luck guys. I'll be able to periodically check the forums, but not enough to keep a constant vigilance like I'm able to at work.
-
Farming tonight T-1hour 45 min..... or before if you guys log in
-
Sorry for crashing out on you guys last night. Comcast has been having some real connectivity issues lately.
I'm hoping to be on tonight and tomorrow, so long as my connection stays up for longer than an hour.
-
My fucking flight was cancelled. The flight LEAVES at fucking 5 a fucking m tomorrow morning.
I'll be on tonight. I might as well just stay up the entire night now that I think about it.
-
Okay by the time tonight's farming is done we should be very close to 100 tie clips... What does that mean. Well we can do one of two things...
1)
Keep all the tie clips we have farmed so far, and will continue to farm, with one group and have 8 members with certainty get into the event.
2)
Try to get another 100+ tie clips under another group leader and send those in with the hopes that we can get two teams of 8 into the event.
Now splitting the tie clips will be a double edged sword. We will have a chance to get more FA in the event... But a chance that we split our tie clips so much that no one gets in... I don't know it's a tough call
-
Wow awesome job everyone! I'll help out on Saturday (still in Florida and will be home Sat morning) if that event is still going!
-
I say, we keep farming with one group.
The reason I say that is because it's a rare thing to get 16 members on now days, with school etc etc. If we keep farming and pick an 8 man team, we can prolly make it close to 200 tie clips for one team. Which I think will better secure our chances of being number 1.
-
would rather one team as opposed to no teams. Although tempting for 2 mission teams given we have what we believe to be a high number of clips it would, as broin says, be a nightmare to split our numbers.
The winning captain (broin) could then appeal to Drisena's better nature and get 2 FA teams...
Finally there is the obvious problem of who would participate in any mission - good luck with that one mr broin et al!
-
Sorrows makes a good point. Even if we got 2 teams in, what are the odds 16 of us would be on at the right time for the event/mission/whatever?
-
I agree with Sorrows. Keep it to one group. That way, we have a better chance of winning the event, regardless of which FA members get to participate in this little mission with Ghost.
As long as FA gets the overall kudos, I'm a happy camper.
-
Okay we will keep it to one team... Though let's do shot for that 200 + mark and I will plead our case to Drisena to have more FA members allowed in.
AS FOR TONIGHT....
I will not be in game until sometime around 9-10 FA time. Please don't take this as a don't farm night. If people are in game and around farm the tie clips designate someone to pick them up and get screenies that they can then send to me.
-
Well something's up. The Machines had a meeting at Kalt Chemical this evening, org locked and regular 55 patrols. We took down as many reds as we could and eventually got in, but they had moved downtown. We followed but the entire building (govt) was locked down. I can't be sure, but the Mervs may have been allowed access, and the Cyphs. The Mervs were definately assisting the Machines to kill Zion, and not just for sport.
We were supposed to have a Zion/EPN meet but it hadn't happened at the time I logged off (midnight GMT). Sorrows is still in though, hopefully he'll get more than I did.
-
Did the Zion meeting go down last night, and did anyone get an update on what the Mech's meeting was about?
-
Some of the other factions might have, we had representation from all the main players: ML, PdS, Insurgence etc
-
Well Fri, Sat, and Sun. were a bust for this... I wasn't able to get back very early Fri night, but was on Sat. and Sun. afternoon but not enough people were on to farm. I guess you guys were being night owls and came on of a evening which didn't work out for me.
Let's try to finish this up strong tonight and tomorrow. I was looking at the screenshots and when we had a full team + a few extra we were dropping them in 3 min and under...
See you all tonight
-
I'll be available after 9pm EST.
-
See ya there.
-
I won't be available, I'm afraid. :( My internet connection is getting flakier by the day, and I've just unplugged the cable modem and given up. Last night it dropped three times in the span of 10 minutes. I'm having a technician come out on Tuesday morning.
-
I'll be around tonight but will definatly be on after 9 est if everyone is thinking that is the best time...
-
I'll be on tonight from about 8:30pm till about 10:15 if that will help out...
cya then everyone.
-
I'll be available all day today during the afternoon until it all ends.
-
Sounds good Ana... I'll try to be in about 11:00 or 12:00 FA time
-
I'll try to be on this afternoon as much as I can. My internet connection held up through the night, which is more or less a miracle lately.
-
Sounds good Ana... I'll try to be in about 11:00 or 12:00 FA time
Sorry, I was still in school then. :(
I'm on for the rest of the day. :)
-
Well we gathered another 14 tonight... Pretty good work and we have until 09/01/07 to get them farmed and turned in. We did see a bunch of ML in the area we were farming on /who so I think they are pushing forward as well.
-
I should be good to make it Wed. and Thurs. night this week.
-
I'll be a tad late this evening, but I will be on.
-
Tonight is crunch time! We have to have these things in by midnight Pacific Time. That's two hours behind the FA clock.
-
I'll get home ASAP.
-
Yeah let's put a big push in for this tonight... Unfortunatley I will need someone to take of ther reigns for me tonight as me and the wife have a annivesary that we have to attend to. I will not be in tonight before the deadline passes...
Please have someone in the group... Probably Adad if he is in it since he has done this before. Collect the tie clips and email them to Drisena in game before the 12:00 PM tonight Mega City Time. As well as take the screenshots and PM them to her on DN1.
I think we've done great so far but we kind of pettered out this past week, where we could've had about 200 or so we've currently at about 114.
-
will be there; started new job this week so early mornings, late nights. will be back in game more again once job settled (oh and I am off to france for 2 weeks from the end of next week).
-
FRANCE! Why would you want to go there... The French are like, well like French-Canadians... but without the Canadian part... and that's bad :D
-
We were able to farm 3 last night, Broin. I sent the screenies and the ties in at 11 EST last night, then I headed to bed.
EDIT:
Be sure to watch this (http://forums.station.sony.com/mxo/posts/list.m?start=25&topic_id=36300016002) post for any new information on who won.
-
Grats
Thank you to all operatives who have sent in Tie Clips.
I can now confirm that the operative team to submit the highest amount of tie clips was Furious Angels, with a final total of 117 Tie Clips.
This has sent a big message back to the Agents that are trying to hunt us down.
Drisena
Zion Liaison Officer
-
I thought it would be more. I know a few of us sent them in ourselves in the beginning. Oh well at least we won.
-
YES!
-
tally ho.
-
Good job guys!
-
Nice job.. :D To be honest I thought we may be in jeopardy of not placing at the top.... That rocked. Okay I told Drisena that we were still figuring out who are top 8 were and I think I'll do it by using the screenshots of who put in the most time towards this. I also made note outside of game when there was more than one team doing it so I got that covered as well. I am also going to beg of her that we be given a few more slots to include everyone.
How does that sound to everyone? Any suggestions you want to send to me just throw them out here or in a PM to me.
-
Good to hear
-
sounds good mr broin; pleased that we won. Tricky that brits could not farm quite as much although hope the odd bit i could do did help. Assuming we dont get 2 full teams then would be good if a proper record (screenies and logs etc) could be taken to show all what happened as it were.
-
I am very glad that we got first. Nice job to everyone who farmed. I am happy that I was able to be a part of this!
-
In order of those FA operatives who participated most in the System Tie Clip hunt from most to the least is as follows..
Broin
Adad
Anamodiel
ManicVelocity
Dmax
Yotogi
Bellthazor
Sorrows
Those are our top 8
Now for the wierd part is this...
Jeyk
Nocry
Lithium
Da6onet
Woodgrain
Brembo
All of these guys were either exactly the same or 1-2 points away from each other... and only about 9 tie clips seperated these operatives from Sorrows. Oh I'm gonna have to do some begging that's just to close.
I will send this list off to Drisena tomorrow unless someone wants to suggest a change or has other input.
-
Maybe those people on the secondary list can be back-ups in case those main operatives on the list cannot be at the event for whatever reason. I somehow get the feeling it's not going to be at the best time.
All of the same, we should try to appeal to Drisena.

My sentiments.
I'm really hoping this special event Drisena has planned for us will take place at a reasonable hour. None of this 2 or 3 in the afternoon jazz.
-
This is awesome, good work everyone! I'm honored to have made the list, and am glad I could help. Please post as soon as we know when our meeting/mission/or reward is to be upon us. As horrible as it may be, my new job may keep me from attending, so second team needs to still be ready. I will be there if AT ALL possible, I've never been part of something like this, but if she keeps the limit to 8, dont be too discouraged yet if you're in the 2nd 8... sorry if im babbling, im tired.
-
Congrats....Did we get a time yet from Drisena yet?
-
just an idea but drisena did, at the off, state that the 2 highest teams of 8 would do the missions? if so, and on the assumption that FA doubled everyone else is it worth finding out if we could have 2 teams....
-
It's only going to be an assassination mission anyway :-P
-
It's only going to be an assassination mission anyway :-P
Nah, that's too exciting.
It will be a courier mission. Our team, which managed to take down 117 agents, will be given the important task of delivering a disk to some unknown, unimportant operative.
The disk will be "encrypted", so we won't be able to read what's on it. Six months from now, it will be revealed in a critical mission that the contents of that disk were actually the access codes to New Zion's mainframe. The operative that we gave the disk to was actually a Machine spy!
FA will be blamed as the ones who allowed the Machines access to New Zion. All Machine operatives will be given a special reward token for their efforts in infiltrating New Zion.
The end. :p
-
Thank you broin.
I sincerely understand that you face a task in listing just 8, when more have helped. The main reason for listing 8 is that I was more than aware that a few factions would be able to have a large quantity of operatives and therefore to be fair on everyone, it had to break down into teams.
After you have listed your 8, please list the other operatives involved, I shall see what can be done, though I ask you not to hold me to anything on that.

So with a little luck :D

Don't worry about me, I'm just hear for the free beer.

Too bad we don't know when the event is supposed to happen.
-
loving it...
-
Well from the sounds of it there may not be a mission... May be just an item given to us and probalby a clothing item
-

It better be one hell of a unique clothing item, and not just an Overdrive or whatever. Something that no one (or nearly no one) has.
-
Very nice...Thanks Broin :)
-
Well, Gender matters on Perp Items. At least I think they do, would make sense. Granted you can not trade them anyways.
-

Can you confirm that? I was thinking it'd be sweet to get some special "I killed the most Agents on Vector and all I got was a bloody t-shirt" sort of thing that no one else had.
-
Well, from persoal expeirence on other servers, they havebeen giving out the new data tap drops for rewards. Such as Quicksilver's and bluepills to event winners.
-

'
I don't think gender matters on FX items, since they're technically abilities. That would be like having a male and female version of Hyperjump.
Sounds like we'll definitely be getting some article of clothing.
-
I think I would rather have a perp item than an article of clothing that will most likely have 5pts to all resistences and 10% I.S. regen.
-
Well I hope you guys get something good. Unless its something for MA then I hate you... I hate you all. lol
-
I would not mind an enhanced clothing item based on the users loadout (Viral Accuracy 20pts, Viral Damage 30pts...I know i'm wishing but you know)....such as hackers, MA, MKT, etc. I think that would be a great reward.
Well what ever it is we should be happy that we will be the only faction to receive it :D
Again Great Team work Everyone!!!!!

Sweet, thanks Broin

You guys got anything yet?

No, not yet. We'll bug Rarebit next week if we don't get anything...

If it were any other faction, they'd have their prizes by now. :\

I can't imagine why it would take them so long to code an unbuffed t-shirt with "I killed 114 Agents and all I got was this lousy shirt" written on it

check your emails those on the team; i have just had a nice email from ghost....

ALL I GOT WAS A ZION HARDWARE REQUISITION?!
I was hoping for something that would distinguish me from everyone else, something that I could show off. Although I didn't have one on this character, it sure is a let-down.
-
My god, that is uber fucking lame
-
odd that ana; i got patcher bandana and quicksilver gloves. saying that ana the zion hardware req does come in handy.
-
Hardly rare or exclusive items are they though... *cough*SystemPistol*cough*
-
Does the ZHR still work? It's a CR1 item, so I figured they must have disabled it after CR2 like they did with Neo's Insight and other such items. I mean, you can still activate it, but does it still apply the buff?
There have been times when I've let the timer on my ZHR run out, and I haven't noticed much of a difference in my toughness at all.
-
I got the hardware req

Got the zion hardware Requisition...not sure if it still works...I'll have to test it out during pvp...never had it, so a plus :D...well if it works..??

It adds 10 resistance points to each category (Viral, Melee, etc.).

There have been times when I've let the timer on my ZHR run out, and I haven't noticed much of a difference in my toughness at all.
It adds 10 resistance points to each category (Viral, Melee, etc.).
It adds 10 resistance points to each category versus regular attacks, not specials. Since MKT and Hackers only use specials to damage you, it only really adds 10 resistance points to melee and ballistic regular attacks.
Also remember that resistance plateaus at 200. If you have anything over 200 you're only going to notice a difference if you get debuffed by something like sky high side kick or destroyer.

Which makes it mostly useless, and shows that Rarebit didn't want to give us good items like Perpetuals. Bah.

I already had one. Are they tradeable?

Non-tradeable. But there must be someone willing to pay out the nose for it. Have people start bidding on the DN1 forums.

I also got the Q Gloves and Patchers Bandana. I bet you 100 million Broin either got Perp Item or 1 info. :P
-
I just went in game and I was sent quicksilver gloves and a patchers bandana with one purity dot each. I was also sent another set with full purity. So I have 2 patchers bandanas and 2 quicksilver gloves.
-
I got the Patcher's Bandana and Quicksilver Gloves as well. Would have been nice to get an Overdrive, however!
-
I got the ZHR and thanks to Manic's generousity I also have the patchers bandana and quicksilver gloves. Frankly I'm pleased with the reward, sure it's no "I killed a 117 agents and only got this t-shirt" reward but it has been something I've wanted for a while on this character. Also, since I'm more of a pvp'er than a rp'er 10% toughness does come in handy.
-
Yeah I got a patchers bandana and a quicksilver gloves... Two sets one with one dot of purity the others with full... If someone is needing the lower level set let me know and I'll get it to them....
-
Heh, I thought it was just me that Ghost sent two sets of items to. I was going to sell the weaker ones, but Yotogi was there to call dibs.
I'm curious as to why some of us got the good stuff while others only got the ZHR. Were the prizes doled out in accordance with which team members spent the most time on the contest?
-
Let me put this another way... you got farm items. If you had farmed tie clips in The Barrens for long enough, you'd have got the same items sooner or later. I feel pissed for you guys that you didn't get something truly representative of your efforts. That is all.
-
I think that those who had ZHR got the bandana etc whereas those without got the ZHR; they must have looked at our accounts.
-
Does anyone know precisely what the other teams on the other servers got as their reward?
-
This was a Vector only contest devised by our liaison Drisena.
-
what a rip off...damn worthless ZHR

You received two sets of items?
-
Yes Bell, yes I did. I'm willing to give one to anyone that want it.

Da6onet did you get a patchers headgear? If not you can have my old one Yellow dot with three others full purity. I'll get it to you next time I'm in game... If I ever get to be back in game again :'(

I haven't been able to get back in game to check. Virus corrupted a bunch of programs on my computer, MxO being one of them. I want to get my hands on an external hard drive to get all my music and files off my computer and then I'm going to reformat. I will be visiting family this weekend, but there's a good computer place near DC I can pick up what I need.
I'll update you when I can.

Bah I thought it was a patchers headgear I got... but it was a bandanna... Yours if you want it though
-
i'll take the headgear cheers broin;)
