i wonder if we could get the HK log extended to the last 20 or 30 kills too, its always cluttered by mission HK's and you cant really see much of the action

biggrim is it correct that Psi Channeling Chainblade doesn't use ammo as all other Psi weapons do ?

[boeffie]

I was wondering that, seeing how quite a few psi skills are linked to the use of ammo, as the special purist effect was supposed to come from the channeling of mindpower into the weapon via this ammo, I thought.

My bet is, that these were already created monsters, about to be released as SE's, and then quickly restamped as HK's to show that the player base IS, indeed, being listened to ..

Seems I was right, looking at the mouseovers of the items dropped ..





Both items have SUPER ELITE in their description, rather than HK.

This is becoming another of those discussions we had over in FS a year or so ago, where we fought (and lost) to have the elemental titans badged as something other than titans. These new monsters aren't HK's by the same rules we've had the 2 other HK's. Keep HK's as end of mission big bad monsters.

Keep these by all means, but call them something else. Yes, I know it's semantics - but it's consistency also.

[EdTheHead]

The other two SEs have been rebranded HKs.

It seems to me the majority of the community have said we want these branded as SE's as they are not HK's by our standards and they drop super elite weapons, so why are players comments being ignored again? :evil:

[Woopydoo]

At the end of the day you cant call Super Elite's HK's, they are totally different and it all sounds a bit rushed to appease people but its backfired again, The drops from the SE's are not even that good, im a psi and the psi ones dont use psi ammo, whats that all about =p ... I cant see them being money spinners for the lower levels as the weapons the higher level players have are better and go with there respective classes ... now if you had announced a couple of new SE's dropping new add on sets (individual pieces at a time =p) that would of been better i think, they are badly needed ... but calling SE's HK's and getting people excited because they thought there was proper HK sets coming out (last one level 190) is a shot in the foot for HCS, cant be many toes left there as it goes

[Vorest]

Rename new HK's to SE's and create 3rd kill log for SE only(These Targon SE should go there too). We have HK and behe ones now.(also extend every kill log a bit, please)

Also add more of these SE in future, so EoC players can have way to burn energy, while non EoC players can kill them from time to time and possibly get loot to use/sell. Anyway, interaction between players will improve and we will be happy.

Keep HK's only as end bosses for long quest chains and give 6part sets only to them. Single class weapons and(hopefully) add-ons to SE monsters... That's all from me.

[boeffie]

Agreed to the above, the fact that HK sets are full is the one thing that makes them so timeconsuming to make, thus ensuring faction occupation for a long time.


I just hope they will listen and not continue in the announced way of having HK drops make little sets, would be a big downer for a lot of players, and no way do these new SE make up for that.

Another step down the ladder for me, with that

I believe the stat's were not copied but were evo10's recollection, so they might not be correct. Also, DEF wasn't mentioned.

biggrim is it correct that Psi Channeling Chainblade doesn't use ammo as all other Psi weapons do ?

If the Purist Weapon needs ammo, all the weapons should use ammo. Would players want this?

[Jett]

Change the Sigma Box from a FC cost to credit cost and you have a credit sink ... YAY .... and maybe something that the lower level guys can afford to use, which will spark some more life into the sigma box rather seeing the message 'Use the button below to post your message here!' day in and day out.

This was suggested somewhere way back in another thread, if i remember correctly ... but i cant be bothered to look for it

perhaps not the mutant weapons, but ammo for sldiers/borgs/purists will be right in line with what they are used to.

Sounds good, as that would let everyone use their class skills still.

These have been revised. The item mouseovers now say "HK" instead of "Super Elite"

If that's the case, then what's the point of us making comments, saying we want HK's like we're used to in-game already, and then they just throw in SE's relabelled as HK's.

Foolishly, I was sort of optimistic about the game again when Hoof got involved, but it seems we're back to the old menage a trois .. namely.

1. We suggest we'd like to see "A"
2. The cows give us "Z"
3. We ask why do we bother ...
