    Fake Accounts/bots/spam

    It's only getting worse. The simplest thing would be for them to add a CAPTCHA on the signup, since they don't have anything like that.

    Ranting about Toxic Positivity + Attempted Heads Up about the Pretty Awful PR

    The Roadmap I'm referring to was from the end of June 2022, which is 17 months ago. The hype was there, but even at that time there was a lack of confidence since the roadmap's completion within the 5-6 months it covered was based on higher backer pack sales; a condition that some people, myself...

    Ranting about Toxic Positivity + Attempted Heads Up about the Pretty Awful PR

    Basically this. Mark asked for some positivity back in early November, then pivoted to gameplay and stopping pack sales. A good choice. But so was the Roadmap, which milestones (though not committed to) are still slowly being achieved some 17 months later. I hope this pivot comes with renewed...

    What do you want to see next?

    Aside from relaying information on the forums, that's pretty much what they've said so far. Perhaps with the new website, they might improve how information is added to the forum. Not holding my breath though. And they probably want to keep the TTRPG digital-only for the meantime. It's still...

    Another "game when?" + Focus Change Feedback Thread

    I'd have to say doing a bit of everything: Allow for players to craft their own weapons and parts, or purchase them from a player market Keep some high-tier equipment locked to crafting, or late-game rewards/drops. Rare enough that trading for these is expensive. Allow for players to craft...

    What do you want to see next?

    Demo builds are all I want to see, and all I'm excited to see. The Light omniframe would be what I'd like to see most, and I hope that it comes with a new weapon or two so it doesn't just feel like a faster Medium omniframe. Demo-wise, I think we'll see either the Light frame or possibly the...

    Another "game when?" + Focus Change Feedback Thread

    Certainly too complex for just the demo. It might be better to outright forgo anything "durability"-like anyway in terms of equipment for the demo period, and to just focus on the core loop instead. If you were to do it, maybe something like end damage = base damage * condition rounded to...

    Another "game when?" + Focus Change Feedback Thread

    I remember there was a brief period where the glider underwent a number of quick updates. Something like that would be needed, and really expected, later on down the line for the weapons. Probably more so if they get around to adding different weapons for the light and heavy. I would still...

    Base raid, not boss raid (Warfront/Invasion)

    Ha, it'd have to be a pretty low one for the demo, lower than Crodus, but higher than the Kaiju in the Art demo. They say this new demo they're working on is 4 or 5v1. That might be sufficient with all the Tsi-hu and kneebiters about (since we don't have vehicles). Presumably it would be twice...

    Another "game when?" + Focus Change Feedback Thread

    I remember that too. As long as both events are just as enjoyable as each other, it would work. Player defending OCT in Firefall used to split pretty evenly during the event, and used the general chat if one of the bases were overwhelmed.

    Base raid, not boss raid (Warfront/Invasion)

    There was meant to be a kaiju as part of the thumping encounter. If they were to do an invasion-style demo, it would 100% be better in the invasion rather than during thumping, provided the invasions were constant enough for someone completely new to encounter it within 20-30 minutes.

    Base raid, not boss raid (Warfront/Invasion)

    An invasion-style demo would really be the best; just a main base, a handful of FOBs you can go and capture with others, and a full-scale overwhelming invasion that pushes everyone back to main base periodically. Terrain large enough you can go thumping, where you can be ambushed by Tsi-hu...

    Respark, "MMORPG Spiritual Successor to Firefall"

    You can join their Discord or add their updates channel to your personal server. They teased some renders of turrets and possibly pick-ups in Jan. In Feb, it looks like they are working on a Culex-like enemy. I've complained about slow development of Em-8ER in enough threads, as have others...

    To infinity and beyond

    I would hope the answers would be: Yes, but with the drawbacks of low damage or slow fire rate i.e. the case of energy weapons. Likely no, but define 'powerful'. In a case of defensive abilities or support abilities, it would be nice to build a tank or 'healer' who can just focus on their job...

    Suggestion: Drop-in Instanced Kaiju hunting

    I've been playing a bit of Darktide, and from what I understand about the disconnects is that when a playing is unintentionally disconnected from the game due to a crash, that position is kept open for a brief window (maybe a couple of minutes) so no one else can join. The spot only opens if the...

    Graphics card & Computer blabber for Em8er

    That makes more sense. Depends on what you'd prefer. HDD will provide more storage, an SSD will be faster, takes up less room and is quieter. I have 4.75TB in my machine and still only 2TB is full (backups of Chief Chat videos and my YouTube recordings mostly). You can always save space by...

    Graphics card & Computer blabber for Em8er

    SSD, but I'd prefer an internal to save a USB slot (just personal preference). I'd be surprised if you could get one at similar price for the same capacity, unless it was heavily discounted.
