As we all know the QA test server will be coming up on us sooner or later this month (hopefully). Anyways it appears some of our nemesis from the past are gunning for FA.

Sattakan:
Is this official? Are we all going to be put in separate organizations based on server? Either way it will be fun to fight against the people from other servers. I cannot wait to show clowns like Tbone that just because we are on a non-hostile server doesn't mean we do not know how to PvP. The people who were already here in Beta have proven that, but for those who came afterwards this is your chance to shut them up.
I say we give them what they want.... I say we give them Hell... I say we show them our Fury! If your not lvl'd up get lvl'd.... I'll be working on lvl'ng people and doing mission arcs for items and getting what we need before the server comes up. I say we all work towards it. Besides it'll be fun to kill Collective again :D
-
Holy shit...
Working to 50 now ^_^
now THAT'S what i miss... kicking collective ass....
-
Hit LvL 40 just last night...buys lots of caffine pills No time for sleep must reach 50!!
-
I would like ot suggest we get together before we do the command to transfer the chars over.
Lets just say Broin has 200 million info, full VD gear, plus a full stability sakura mask.
I have 10 million info, full DR gear, and a full stability watchers shades.
step 1. Broin gives me his stuff.
step 2. I do the command to transfer the character.
step 3. I give him back his stuff, plus my stuff.
step 4. he does the command to transfer the character.
step 5. he gives my stuff back.
Now each of our chars on the other server will have 210million info, the full stability mask and shades, full VD nad DR gear, and our Vector chars will not have changed.
-
by the way, I will also level up anyone at creston if needed.
-
I thought items and infor dont transfer.....
-
I read everything will transfer. Can't find it now becuase I'm at work, but will look later.
-
Make sure we get out PBox gear, too.
If that borrowing stuff pre-transfer works, I might need to borrow someone's HJ Beta before I transfer.
-
Born ready...
*Loads Guns*
-
Fuse the sploiter... haha.. I will level up as much a possible.. Doctor at the ready
-
Ok here are some ideas I brought up to Recursion and the Vector boards. TC is in and pretty much everyone from the Vector boards agree:
Player Event:
Basicly this can be a weekend thing or it can last the entire QA. Whichever everyone thinks will be more fun. There should at least be a one day player event for the Capture of 01. Basicly have everyone who wants to participate go to the construct under one Faction name per server IE Vector, Recursion, and Syntax and then have an all out war for bragging rights and maybe a title King of QA.
What I ment by 1 day was a player event. Perhaps we could have it where one or two days a week we have this player event. Who ever comes out on top at the end of the QA cycle wins. Then while the player event isnt going on we could have the server wars spill out onto the streets of Mega City.
Lusid would be the leader ( The majority seem to agree with Pblades vote) since he has no faction and the crews would be our factions as they exist now:
Faction name: Vector
Ships:
Viral Vendetta
Furious Angels
Children of Zion
Jokerz
LET
The Forsaken
ect...
You get the idea and for a faction that goes over 12 people just put something like Furious Angels2 for the next crew.
What do you guys think about the Server wars?
-
*shutters at the thought of sharing faction chat with all those people*
-
Seems like a really good idea but, what org would we all choose? I don't think you can have people from different orgs under the same faction; but I don't know, maybe you can, even though it makes no sense. If not, what is to stop douche bags from attacking other people from different orgs on the same server? It sounds fun, I just have some questions.
P.S. I love how people put words in Tbone's mouth, "I cannot wait to show clowns like Tbone that just because we are on a non-hostile server doesn't mean we do not know how to PvP." I think by Tbone, he means everyone except for Tbone. That would only seem logical.
-
Interesting Concept... I worry there would be too much bickering between factionmates given our relationships on Vector, yet on the other hand it could strengthen the community and RP aspects. On QA I don't really care what org the faction is, or who is in it. I actually almost welcome the idea knowing there would be HUGE fights. Though it may be very borring considering Vector will have no real challenge in PvP. We rarely use /fc with TS-I'd love to see a TS with all of vector on it.... whoa.
-
As I had read it, since in an OOC QA setting, org is just a game mechanic, Vector was going to go Machinist and Recursion was going to go Merv, leaving Zion for the poor bastards from Syntax who haplessly wander into this conflict.
Also, regarding TS, I think if it has over 100 slots it's supposed to be registered and a fee has to be paid, so I'm not sure how it would work out.
-
*shutters at the thought of sharing faction chat with all those people*
yeah no shit.
-
Well regardless who we share it with its a QA server. I will be representing with Vector if this goes through to kick some carebear ass.
Forgot to mention
Vector - Machine
Recursion - Merv
Syntax - Zion
-
So I take it we should all start grinding out machine missions and get that rep up :(
-
Naw all we need is the leader to invite crews to the faction and walla we have our Machine tag.
-
Ok, cool :D
-
That's not official, Orien. Someone used that as an example of how easy it would be to replace those tags above chars. For instance, instead of saying "machine", it would say "Vector". It was part of the argument to get the devs to make the orgs sever vs. server.
-
Well when you make a crew your crew chooses what org it is, and only a faction with the same org can invite your crew.... I beleive is how it works. So yeah, we would all need machine rep, therefore it wouldnt work, because personaly I worked too damn hard on my zion rep to go and blow it all so i could have machine rep. Maybe once the server actually comes out il run machine missions, but on vector i stay zion :)
I like your sploit idea fuse :)
And as for the pvp stuff.... All the people on that forum are just talking a bunch of smack and telling people they are idiots for how they pvp. Im just going to play it off quiet, hang tight, wait for the server to come out, remain in sneak both in game and socially, and then Fuse, Tbone, and I can all sneak up and show them a thing or two :3 This is going to be fun...... if we can figure out an easier way to make a machine faction.
-
No you could easly switch back and forth between orgs. Ive seen Nik0 do it a bunch so he doesnt get capped and T basicly they are just trying to find a way where Vector is under one roof to fight as server vs. server. Org means nothing on a QA., but Im not making the decisions I just posted what was talked about on the forums.
-
only the person who leads the ship and faction needs to have that org.
Also, do not call it a sploit. First of all, that's bad grammar. (It's EXPLOIT, not "sploit") Second, it's resourceful, not abusive.
-
Hmmm, this does look like it could be fun, and if most people on our server are for it, then why not?
It should be interesting to say the least to have a 1 server org/faction.
-
yeah only the leader of the crew needs machine rep at 16 everyone else can have whatever rep with whatever orgs they want and still get invited.
-
So have three people each with a rep in a different org and you can switch at will.
-
Well, sounds like there are some interesting ideas out there on this.
Why don't we go ahead and formulate an official plan of action, etched in stone on what we're going to do to prepare for this as well as what to do when we're actually there.
What do you think, T / Broin / Eroz?
-
Well there is no doubt that we will be figthing against the Collective. And it is only the QA server, if you need a vote I'll support it, but Tbone still has the final say.
-
Really, I think you only need 1 person with machine rep. He starts a crew with 3 or more people, promotes one of them as captain, then leaves the crew. Rinse. Repeat. Form faction.
-
We can always start it with an alt char. I have an alt that I can work to 16 mach rep in no time.
-
Just thought Id let you guys know that Freiheit told me that /copychar works now. Looks like QA is coming up soon.

:D :D :D :D :D
-
Broken again :( I got it to copy once and then about 10min later someone said it gave the old error again so I tryed it again and got the error.
-
If we are setting up crews by colors lets be Vector- Angelic White
Mwahahahaha..... whoever said we couldn't use crayola names
-
Crayola roxorz my boxorz......... I kind of like Macaroni 'n Cheese though, and for those of you who are wondering, yes that is a crayola color, its a light orange/dark yellow, whatever you want to think of it as :p
-
*shutters at the thought of sharing faction chat with all those people*
yeah no shit.
Agreed.
I always saw FA strong enough to stand as one. We're strong enough to make orders, not having to follow any of theirs (eg. the order to change to machine on QA just so we can be with them to do server vs server ... ?)
We don't have to be in the same faction to be on the same org. Let's convince Vector to be Zionist and all the other two servers to be machine/merv. If they don't like the idea, then screw it! We do our own thing.
-
This has nothing to do with your Org its so that the other servers appear as red. Im going to do it because it will be fun. Org means nada on a Test server.
-
yeap same here i really want to get in on this. Also I was checking around on teh boards and it appears that vector is the most organized about this whole deal.
-
Yeah, even the groups that traditionally don't like each other (ex: us and VV) seem to be able to put that aside temporarily for the sake of QA.
-
I would rather put our differences aside and even fight with people like the jokerz if it means a chance to kill TC again.
-
QA is not your real server. Have fun with it guys. You might actually learn something.
Really it's your char, so do what you will with it-especially on a QA server. TBone would most likely not threaten any of you to go one way or the other-so I really discourage anyone saying "FA's OFFICIAL stance/Org/FactionName" on QA.
Leave the polotics on Vector.
-
What Fuse said.
There is going to be a Vector meeting on Sunday at 4pm Est.
-
Bonopi (I think it was him) mentioned this on the Vector forums that I think may be being over-shadowed by this whole server war. The purpose of the QA server is to find bugs and help balance the new combat system. Having a server war is an excellent and fun way to test Combat 2.0, but it means nothing if nobody remembers to send in bug reports and ccr tickets.
I think this alone is far more important than arguing over which server will fly which org flag.
-
I submitted hundredes of tickets in beta. It hasnt let my mind at all that this is for testing. In between server battles I will be testing this full time.
-
Yep, a server war would be great. But, the testing comes first and hopefully we'll provide good feedback so they don't fuck it up like they apparently did with SWG
-
This is the Meetings Highlights taken from the MxO boards for those that missed it.
Ok Ladies and Gents, despite some early noise we were able to have a meeting about the Vector faction that will be on the QA Server. The following was discussed and voted on by various reps from various factions/orgs. If you have any comments concerns or ideas feel free to share. Also if I missed anything post it.
1) Base of Operations - Midian East. This hardline is close to Club Avalon and the Machinist Archive which will be helpful when you take our Org into consideration. It's also good for players of all levels.
2) Faction Name - Vector - Hostile. Our faction name which will be formed by:
3) Faction Founders - Lusid and Trevona. They are easy going; cool people with machine rep who have agreed to help Vector - Hostile get rolling.
4) Voice Communication - Dr.Smith has volunteered use of his TS server. (More info will come as we get closer to going live.)
5) MXO Chat - All present were in favor of using Faction Chat Mainly for: Notification of Bugs, so that everyone can reproduce and /ccr them and Emergency Information. All other chat can take place on TS, Team chat, and Crew chat.
6) Archives - We will try to get the pvping off to a good start by going to the archives for PVP.
7) Red=Dead - Well, it's ultimately your call but if a carebear lowbie is flagged, kill.
We also talked about having a formal MA Inter-Server Tourney, nothing was officially laid out and we'll need input from the carebears. There was also talk about a faction uniform, just for kicks, maybe something like an agent would wear - Black slacks, black suit coat, dress shoes etc. Any thoughts?
We also need each crew to figure out who will be where and post that in a thread I'll start on the Vector Recruiting forum. Especailly the factionless people who will be in color crews...
As we get more info about the QA we can arrange for specific times and places to meet to form the faction.

Vector For Life Bishes.
Ok now we just need a sign up for our FA crew for who will be doing this.
-
if I need to I can start a alt to get 16 mach rep and then start a FA crew with taht alt and then add my real char and everyone else. If we take up more than one crew someone else will also have to have enough rep. The question is, does anyone have 16 machine rep on thier main right now?
-
Thats cool Khr0n1k. I have Minimum Machine so it would take me forever to get to +16.
