non trap/trick, Its a vessel with a lot colors, blue wings and two machine-gun. Like a mini-bus : EDiT:
Nope not mine. Mine is a makeshift flying peace of moon rocks. I was trying to escape Hoth and travel to warmer climates.
The server is now being updated to 4.1 and we are starting fresh due to the sad fact of well you know what. But with 4.1 a lot of good changes have come now: http://empyriononline.com/threads/pre-alpha-4-1-pvp-pve-factions-and-ownership.3571/
Alas the game glitched and despawned my escape pod before I could loot it (like 3 minutes). Vana was nice enough to make me a drill and some drill ammo, gave me some food and a constructor too. I set out to mine my way back to a starting point. When I finally found iron and promethium, thats when the drones showed up. With no weapon I was a sitting duck. Next wipe I guess.
This server is wonderful. The new update will help with some of the issues we have had with griefers. The push to get off Akua asap will still exist I suspect, so I was thinking that it may be better for me to join a faction and combine my efforts with other good players rather than create more bases on Akua than necessary. I will look for an opening in a respectable group when I am in game just as a heads up.
Yeah I hope more and more people team up even more so with the current limitations to help people get started. You guys could do great things in groups.
Following the patch, a new form of griefing has evolved where another player simply envelops the base of another player with invulnerable blocks.
With 4.1 and the ability to make a specific planet PvP (As far as I understood the patch notes) will you be assigning PvP to a specific Planet?
Any chance we can get more bases allowed to be built or is it part of the coding of the game right now? I have been enjoying using this server, people seem really nice and havent experienced a griefer yet. I just cant put down a base or build an SV as it says there are too many on the planet already. edit.. Thanks to everyone who was helping me today. I found you can get into space to make an SV if you can find a ride up there.
I was on your server just now, everything was going well untill suddenly strange things started to happen, a gut called LightSpeed shouted in chat about someone taking over his base, while being on Akua, I was on a mining trip at the time, on returning to base my own turret turned on me, I'm on omicron and was the only payer on the planet at the time. some guy earlier was saing somethging about how he found out how to hurt other players bases by ramming em with a SV. I have saved his name, didnt feel it was ok to post it here, if anyone wants to know contact me by PM. I hope this is an issue that can be fixed, liked the server a lot and would like to continue to play there.
I was thinking of starting a char a server, but I've had my fill of PVP servers. And then there is the matter of fuel. Just in my dabbaling offline, it looks like it would be a bit of work keeping enough fuel to keep things running while not on. I don't want to have to worry about getting on every day long enough to get enough fuel to keep it running till the next time I get on. And now I reading building a base to get going in might not be an option because of a base/planet limit? Is that true?
