Imperial Scout/Recon forces have located what appears to be a gigantic power plant beneath the Hadesheim Crater. Preliminary scans show relatively low radiation levels, indicating humans should be able to enter the tunnels without special equipment.

The existence of such powerful robot technology on Calypso soil is clearly a major threat to human settlements and suggests a much more alarming robot presence than previously acknowledged. Because of this, the Federal Empire has sent a unit of Earth Shock Troopers to investigate, under the command of Sgt. Quintana.

Quintana’s unit has established a link to the robot teleportation network, allowing access to this power core. At regular intervals, drives to enlist colonists in helping the EST obtain Data Storage Units from the power core will be held. Points will be awarded based on the number and quality of DSUs retrieved; colonists with the highest number of points will be rewarded appropriately by EST command for each recovery effort.

The temporary Earth Shock Trooper base on Calypso, along with Sgt. Quintana’s office, is located in Minopolis. The first DSU recovery effort will begin on Friday, March 28.

Going to be funny when nobody participates because they can't compete with the terminator. Bring on the death of higets dps events.
 
Another mayhem...:confused:

Kind of losing their appeal.

I will hunt in there for fun, but with only 10 prizes on the line - chances of winning are slim to none.
Sounds cool though. But no time limit other than how long the event lasts - could be who plays longest too.

Oh edit: I didn't notice how there is bonus prizes. That is actually really cool. Nice I like it

I think this time the event is more focused on who can hunt more time

Besides thats just silly to say the prices are too small for it to be Worth to join with terminator since the cost to hunt for 40 hours with terminator is alot higher then possible prices Revenue.

Its luck based, 5k Points for 1 unit makes the Winner to be chosen from the top 50 damagedealers, not the most damage done.

Yay!! I love killing bots!! I never win but I always play :D
 
Very glad to see the event prizes.. Truly makes it feel that past year was TEN year celebration..

As for event, no time limit sounds a bit extreme but i guess grinders will love it.. I bet someone will make a nice post on ava's being hunted by more then 1 person tho :)


PS: Also glad that they took care of the advantage of terminator to a large extent.. I guess that was the motivation to keep it unlimited time and small prizes :)

At least the terminator can't be shared on this one, being only 3 days....

This one is shorter, has participation awards (if participant get 500+ points) and has been worked into the storyline, though, unlike earlier ones :)
 
We should have a mayhem every month instead of only every 3!!!
If you want my money, you'll have to waste your dev time better.. you can start by fixing the loot
last 6 hunts looked like

-264 ped
-757 ped
-568 ped
-2702 ped
+130 ped
-682 ped

& 2 more - runs (each atleast another 1k ped loss) I still need to track, if that is your veteran appreciation technique.. then it's def. not working.
So if you want ppl to actively keep playing instead of cycling 5% of what they normally cycle.. you know where to look.
 
I read somewhere that game competitions were regulated in number of hours, to assure participants safety... Not sure where I saw this or if its true.

But anyway:
Im looking for people to hunt with my avatar during the day, and I will take the night shift.
 
A shame to see usual whining noobs just making negative reply right away without even giving it a thought.

A 3 day event no time limit. Not so sure terminator will win this one, more likely to be the person with most coffee.


And prices looks good to, the universal ammo is good new thought from MA.


Im deffinately positive about this. Atleast i wont bash before seeing the outcome of this event ;)


GG MA.
 
"Universal Ammo - Can be used in place of any type of weapon ammunition and Synthetic Mind Essence"
what thats really mean?

It meens its ammo that can be used for any kind of weapon, but you can not tt it, and simply get the peds.

More likely the 5 ppl that share 1 ava & can shoot non stop for 3 days :D

The eco differential shooting the terminator vs another weapon for 4 days isn't even remotely covered by a ~15k ped first prize, not to mention the extreme luck factor in the new 5k point token. You guys should really think before you post :laugh:

It is cool to see guaranteed prizes for meeting thresholds. I hope we see more of that in the future.
 
"Universal Ammo - Can be used in place of any type of weapon ammunition and Synthetic Mind Essence"
what thats really mean?

It means that you can use it in place of weapon cells, blp packs and synthetic me.
 
:laugh::laugh: HAHAHAHAHAHA oh my sides :laugh::laugh: thats a good one :laugh::laugh:

Im not sure if youre laughing because it is luck or your capabilities to count/analyze are limited.

With a 5k point sack its the one with luck enough to loot a few of that that wins. And yet again the eco of the terminator doesnt allow for this sort of competition fully enhanced vs prices given. I dont know if you know but I do own the terminator with a friend (stryker) and I can assure it wont be competing 

No chance to win anything, but "partecipation bonus" is really a good idea.

This don't even look like a casino anymore.

Pay to work! This should be the new advertise for Entropia Universe!



btw isn't the second place reward better than the first one? :scratch2:

1- Omegaton Ranger Scope MK1 - 1% Increased Critical Hit Chance
2- Omegaton Laser Sight MK1 - 10% Increased Critical Damage

At least you would have a chance to get a tier point on it, and since its yours nobody really has the right to complain
 
Will we get to enter at any point before 1600 Friday? I'm assuming we can't already, since I see no globals on these mobs on tracker.

Not that it may matter to much to me, I have the same problem as das...
