I was just wandering around Hampton Green looking for Suits (as you do) and I walked into a large building near the East hardline, just having a look around. After dispatching a pair of inadequate guards, I chose to have a look to see if there were any other floors to this dull building. After working my way down from level 28 through to 20, i decided to start from the bottom. At level 3 I hit the jackpot; an entire level, with offices, computer rooms, lounges, meeting rooms, and the best part : one-way mirrors all the way round, looking out into the street. We can see them, they can't see us. Now tell me, is this not the best possible base for the FA. Here are the Coordinates:
Hampton Green (Downtown)
X : -11 Y : 39 Z : 2
3rd floor of the building between the collector and the East Hampton Green Hardline.
-
Sounds interesting.
-
if we decided to have an in-game HQ or meet location, this would undoubtably be the place to have it
all of the above mentioned and more
-
It sounds perfect if that's how it works! I thought there was a specific construct where the factions have their own base and they can be attacked and what-not. Similar to DAOC only much cooler. I just hope coders can make fooseball tables.
-
That sounds cool and all but do you think my lowbie tail can make it to there?
Just had conserns with newer and/or lower level members.
-
I was thinking the very same thing Treylar.
I think I am around lvl 14 or so and I have never ventured outside of the slums so far.
Guess I suck as a beta tester, very good at testing the slums, or I need to play more... you pick...
-
There is a hardline about twenty metres to the left of it. and a subway not far off. We just need to escort the lower levels to the hardline once and bang, we are set.
-
I actually started grabbing access nodes in the Downtown area before I ever set foot in the International district, & I think I was only like level 10 or 11...
What's the worst that could happen? Frequent Reconstructor miles? I could fly around the real world in a Concorde everyday for a year with what I'd have racked up by now... :D
EDIT: All in all, it sounds great to me...but this thread should probably be moved...
-
And maybe escort them to the access node for that area.
Hey Ajax, maybe you could add a poll on top of this thread so that we know if people like this hideout once they've seen it.
-
Done
-
I like it. If we do get a HQ in a construct this could just be our IN-MATRIX HQ. Noticed that any floor we would be able to use would have to be a top, bottom, or roof-accessable floor and this is the best one I've seen so far. Nice, Ajax
-
i remember we were talking about this in another thread a while ago, and it seemed that we had somewhat of a general agreement that keeping the HQ in one place wasn't a good idea; that we should have several places and switch so that it's harder to "stumble upon" us in a mission or to randomly see all the angels go into the same building all the time ..... so yeah i dunno
although you get like 30 brownie points for putting "meh" as an vote option .... go you
-
Ok... I'm not nuts I thought we decided that a HQ wasn't important.
-
new members...what can ya say :P sounds like a good plan, might wanna find a couple more like it though, and double check to make sure those 1 sided mirrors or whatever actually work.
-
I just came back from the building. Awesome place. The 3rd floor is huge, many different types of rooms. Easy in and out. Close to a hardline.
Then there are these mysterious one-way mirrors. They're great because you can see far away without being seen. Something tells me it might be a bug though. I was expecting to see opaque or tinted glass on the other side of the mirrors. There's no window. From the outside, all you see is the brick wall. There's no way of knowing there's a mirror unless you come in the building. Pretty weird.
Up until now, that's the best building I've for a HQ. I can definitely see us there. You guys should check it out too.
-
As there will one day be constructs for clans and stuff, I dont see the need of a place in the Matrix..
-
Zink, Ajax has been an FA member longer than you have... by 4 days, but still longer.
-
Here's another idea for the building guys. I was looking into nearby office complexes, and I found a building that had 17 (small) floors of open offices, directly across from Club Paradise Lost.
To get there: Go to Hampton Green (North Central Hardline probably would be the closest). Go to the Pendhurst-Amaranth monument at x: -175 z: -100. Go to the building to the north of you, go into Tower B (Western Tower), and go up to floors 18-34.
Tell me what you think about this one.
-
i saw one other place that might be one of the many HQ's, if we go that road, and it was in baldwin, which i know is not friendly to low levels at all, but still
the only reason i found it was because there was a big neon sign that advertised alcohol, and in my boredom, i went in, but it looks like a bar where a party just let out, there is a setup for a band on the floor, with guitars and stuff laying there like they just left for lunch. there is a bar, for you drinkers, and it's not too huge, but it amused me. only because i am easily amused. meh. for those who want to have a look-see, it's -4, 19, 683
this could also be used for our little faction parties, i know someone once mentioned doing a meet-n-greet with other zionists factions, and that would be a fun place to do it. it's not technically a club, so random people won't just be popping in and out. but meh
MEH i said MEH!! :)
-
technically i was here before ajax, but since the transition to the new boards i had to wait, and if anyone else says otherwise, their a liar.
-
Dude, you know that i was here before you on the old boards too. I know jsut as well as you that all the oldies mixed up thier join times on this board, but that doesn't change the fact that i am older then you. I mean, look at my avi!
-
That is a pretty older looking guy for an av... I mean, white hair, gruff look. Zink, you have a girl with bouncing boobies that just screams, "I'm confused about my age and gender!"
Aaaanyway, back on topic: I really hope we can play blackjack and code up hookers.
-
The only person desperate enough to code a hooker is ZInk.
-
Qoute Swtich:
`A digital pimp hard at work`
I just had too!
you know I'm only messin btw. :p
-
hahaha go look up "slut" on urbandictionary.com ....
sorry. had a feminist moment. it will NEVER happen again .... ok, well it might, but i'm not as feminist as you may think! ;)
-
I claim the lounge that has the hot women serving cold drinks for my base of operations!! Oh wait, that wasn't there...
-
well technically none of it's there.. it IS the matrix....anyways... ok i'll just shut up now.
-
Arch, I hope you die from cancer or something for making that reply...
-
I was gonna say car accident but cancer is good :d
-
lol, This is really amusing now :)
-
Sabre, do you just look at people you dont like and say stuff like "I hope you get a tumor in an uncomfortable place." ??
-
"SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAYYY!! This Sunday on HBO, we've got a great fight for all of you! It's a free-for-all fight, featuring Arch the Nemesis, Sabrekongol the Slayer, and CoreDump the Nicknameless all in an arena for your viewing pleasure on Pay Per View for only $i5000! Blackout restrictions apply. Anywhere outside of the Matrix is automatically blacked out. Also, Tabor Park, Mara, Appolyon, and Midian Park are also blacked out due to explicit language and violence."
-
Stuff that, I am not going to waste 5000 precious tit bits of information just to watch three men rip each other apart. Bring in the Monkeys throwing Dookie I say!
-
I know what you mean Ajax.
I'm not sure I'll even waste any of my precious time participating. I'll be busy Sunday night sorting my sock drawer thank you.
:D
-
I garuntee that there will be one sock without a partner.
-
Yeah, it's probably on one of my golf clubs or my wife made a bunny out of it :)
-
i put my money on the dryer. it steals all random missing socks and spews them out at someone else's house
-
Yeah, I'll do that...if someone in-game is talking shit (or if some dude is hacking in an FPS) I'll say stuff like that....trust me, you haven't heard 1/4 of the stuff I can say lol...Arch knows....
As for the FFA....Arch and I would prob kill each other at the same time somehow...we're that even...
-
So Core would win?
-
Not only would I win but I would be sitting in a lawn chair, drinking a beer and taking bets on which one of my two worthy opponents would die first ;)
Ok back to reality now :)
Edit: I just went to that building on the QA server and everything is the same. So we know it will be there later. I noticed that there are building security guards so it's best for low level FAs to just hyperjump to the thirs floor. I also noticed that there is a subway station nearby.
