The space is starting to become full of people, or posts of people that don't understand the basics but HAVE to share knowledge... that makes no sense....
I think you are wrong...fundamentally...the space is full of misinformed players who accept the claims of ~30 "forum gods" who have somehow managed to instill in them the claims that they must buy $50k worth of items. .. if they want to be "profitable".
For me, it's enough to kill ~50 mobs to make my personal judgment to know if it makes sense to hunt for the next 5 hours.
Simply because the Planetary Cycle currently changes every 5 hours. The cycle that affects the so called "TT waves" but this is a TT balancing cycle....not a personal balancing, just a return "IF" there is more PED in this server/planet area.
The small "waves", which are personal to each object, usually have a similar balancing, which is of different duration... but it is usually once an hour for about 50-100 minutes.
In all of this, it can just be taken as simple logic, because the game is built on C, which is an object-oriented language. Therefore, each object in the server has its own properties and behaviors. And game behaviors are built through conditional constructs…
That is, as much as you may not like it, your Avatar is wandering around in an environment that is independent of your Avatar's mood, simply because the Entropia System has its own ecosystem in which you find yourself.
My impressions on the platform built in this way are for a mirror Virtual Reality resembling the real one. And this is why many players have "Beliefs" that Entropia has similar points with IRL.
Like for example the tides the moon creates in IRL... players with more experience due to the replays of "Day's End" liken, perhaps, to this phenomenon. But the truth is that even if there is a 5h cycle, the System will not give you 10k HOF if this PED is not taken by a player. Аnd it also doesn't necessarily the System to give you back anything if certain times or values haven't passed for that object.. Also if only you are that player, then you are fighting against yourself... ie to get 10k HOF... 1st you will have to lose more than 10k.
Last but not least, Entropia Universe is a Game built not only for Mathematicians who believe in the accuracy of their calculations solely from Chat.log input... which to me is completely absurd...
You see, there is no way you can convince me, without substantial arguments, how you calculated your Average TT Return without offering the minimum and maximum values, which I did in my 1st comment. Your comments are usually just about how much better it is to have a good hunting gun and no substantial part of it proving that statement.
That is, what I wrote in my previous comments is that simply, I do something when I see that the game has not dried up for this object and is in a sharing behavior. In this case, skipping moments when the system is hungry for PEDs, I personally don't have big losses and that's why I end up with a positive result very often... also, I don't believe I'm the only one who plays above 100% TT. It's simple... the game gives it to whoever takes it, you don't need to have been at a big loss before, because the System is interested to be filling by someone's PED, but not to who going to share that PED in the end.
If you really don't understand anything I wrote, just take Entropia as a book with substance, not just the back cover of the book. And if you're not that type of person, and even that doesn't mean anything to you... just don't try to come across as arrogant by shutting out the personal opinion of every single Player who plays a Game.
Judging from your previous comment where you wrote about loot waves, I think it takes you a few months to understand the claims and generalizations about them when I make them. Therefore, I assume and hope that everything I wrote in this thread will serve you before MindArk releases Odyssey.
I mean, if you don't understand something, just ask, you don't have to deny it until you understand, I don't mind helping you, because I'm not writing this against you, but against MindArk.
