    Question: Have you ever deposited more than you are comfortable with?

    At the height of my playing, I think i was depositing £300 a month. I conditioned my mind to accept £100 a month as good value, if i could achieve that. Twice i maxed the 30k ped a month deposit cap buying stuff. I also opened the bidding on every auction space motherships at 35k ped each time...

    News: Mayhem Vendor Restock Information

    If MA said spend 50k usd over 5 years of hard grind and we will reward you with a weapon... That doesn't automatically make it the right choice to take that path. It's easy though to be conditioned into thinking it is the correct path. What if that path was 2k usd or a swing to 300k usd? When is...

    News: Mayhem Vendor Restock Information

    Anyone selling an 'LR 60 Aug' for 5k ped yet, I'm still seriously waiting for a good price. 🤣

    Computer closes after login

    One of my kids wanted a new laptop to play the latest "The SIMS" game. Turns out a brand new off the shelve laptop with decent independent graphics card, for around £1000 wasn't good enough. I'd have to spend nearly £2000. I didn't buy it in the end. I always thought only EU made huge demands...

    Price Check A&P Series Mayhem LP-120 Perfected (unlimited)

    The token amount to pull it, is irrelevant. MA could have a 10 million token requirement to pull a weapon, and some would still pull it. Is someone willing to spend $12k+? That's all thst matters. Unless it could print peds every hunt, I wouldn't.

    Mindark 2025 Q1 financial report

    When MA stripped out gazz from little drones and iron from argos, that basically killed the one year-in players. I used to spend hours on drones and argos at old twin peaks. I didn't actually realise those stones benefitted my ava, other than I could play for days or weeks on one deposit...

    Mindark 2025 Q1 financial report

    From a phycology point of view the world has considerably changed. We can get a free dopamine hit from scrolling Instagram for 4 hours. We may have grown up in a world where; "these are our terms, if you don't like it, suck it up" but that doesn't wash anymore. MA are up against a multitude of...

    Mindark 2025 Q1 financial report

    I still look back to 2006 when a player didn't need much equipment or bankroll to play continuously on a reasonable budget. Every year though mobs and equipment required has ramped up. The weapon token was another ramp up on costs required to; "buy the fruit machine, to play the fruit machine"...

    Price Check Oblivion Protocol TC-110

    I like the name of it 'oblivion'. Wonder if there will be a Mindforce orb of destruction.

    Tips to make money in the game?

    You don't have to make free money in the game to play the game for free. You can make free money outside the game and deposit that into EU. Same outcome, different strategies. Invest in RL shares paying dividends, get free income and use that for your life entertainment. Be that buying some...

    News: The Future of Mayhem: Vendor Changes

    A couple of thousand mu on an L exceptional weapon, is hardly "comparable" to 1-10% mu on general loot return to try and tick over. Besides it's all cool, when the timing is right, I'll try out some hunting. No rush, the game isn't going anywhere. No one dies in RL if you're not logged-in 24/7🤣

    News: The Future of Mayhem: Vendor Changes

    But i want my cake and eat it. 🤣🤣 In all seriousness it all depends how long a 300 dollar depo lasts in my book. MA do like to wrap the game up like Mexican food. No matter which way you fold it, it's still the same. Depends what their strategy is. Do they want 15 year ago player base or not? 🤣

    News: The Future of Mayhem: Vendor Changes

    I honestly don't see a large market for 300k guns though. Maybe the odd sale goes through. Or people upgrade for 10's of K difference. But that's not the same as selling a gun for a fresh 300k ped. I also believe player "demanded" prices doesn't quite have the sustainable power people like to...

    News: The Future of Mayhem: Vendor Changes

    I welcome the L exceptional weapons, but I'm not pay 1000's of ped MU for one. Maybe at a push I'll pay 200 ped mu. If not I won't shoot, don't care. It will be interesting how many Limited MA drop, although if MA are truly serious about getting 1000's more people hunting, they best make the...

    ATH: 127k Iron Stone - found on F.O.M.A.

    Maybe, especially if it's depo peds. Who knows. 🤣🤣🤣 I'm happy for you anyway. Always nice to see players catch an ATH.
