This morning, CDF high commander, Major Jenny Carramone, revealed CDFs plan for closing down the orbs to the public. Using telemetry data from the orbs and some field trials, CDF have created a device for closing them down. However, initial attempts have been unsuccessful.

“There seems to be a control mechanism that counters our attempts of closing the orbs” said Major Carramone, adding that CDF believes that the two helmets described in the Duchev files and in Ms Nakajima’s testimony is that control mechanism.

“The mutants have made a critical error” Major Carramone said, “as both helmets are on this side of whatever gateway the orbs are. If the helmets are removed from mutant possession, CDF will again attempt to use their device to close the gateway.”

The plan consists of two elements: first, the mutants must not be allowed to slip back through the orbs with the helmets. Second, the helmets must be tracked down. The second task requires manpower that CDF do not have; CDF intel indicates that the helmets is carried by an adjutant or servant when not in use, which makes it hard to identify the holder. Intel also indicates that the helmets are held by two different mutant clans.

“I hope that Calypso’s colonists will help” Carramone concluded. “Retrieve the helmets, and we’ll take it from there. We expect stiff resistance from the mutants, so be prepared.”

For security reasons, Major Carramone did not answer any questions about the nature of the device.

feel free to discuss or not :)
 
Thanx For Input!

Seems like it is the end of attacks from now? :)
 
no traveling to the other side for us ehh? or well without a device or genetic mod everything would appear pitch black to us.
2 mutant clans and we have the 3 mu variants, umbras, fef, the shaman and club wielders who i forgot the name of, thoes little things with blade arms, argo, molisks (which don't seem to be partaking?), any others i missed?
 
Don't trust em ! CDF is evil !
 
Event?

And only lucky view who are able to "loot" the "helmet"

no doubt the 2 lucky looters of these mystical helmets will get given either a LA or a full set of carramone...

interesting how 1 event that just requires huge expenditures of ped to MA's coffers can generate huge potential rewards, whilst another event that lingers for over a year and just requires forethought generates a mediocre reward :)
 
Ooooh the mutants have a couple of big helmets :ahh:



Stinky:yay:

Yep. Well, the event that lingers for months and months and appeals across the board, AND puts tons of ped into the coffers in the process, just over a longer period. At least such player run efforts (that imho are more fun than any 'official' event ever was) are at least being noticed now a bit and taken a bit more seriously. A button being pushed once in awhile or an ingame reward for participant winners seems a small thing to ask and recieve.

GL to all in the quest for the helmets :)

Either that or, inline with the 'Save Shelly':

Operation: Go kill Mutants till CDF founds the helmets and ends the event! :D

Is this the new way of running events perhaps... :rolleyes:
 
***hhiisssssscrrrrk***

CDF Broadcast now active.

Attention all Calypso dwellers. We your masters have decided it is time to take ALL OF YOUR MONEY. Please deposit anything you can beg, borrow or steal, and then shoot it at mutants.

Two lucky bastards (or maybe one VERY lucky bastard) will win 50% of the combined intake.

The rest of the money will be... used... for... something good. Ahem.

Do not bother mining or crafting; all money will be automatically redirected to... something... which will reward... someone... at some point in... look, just get to shooting, dammit!

CDF out.

:laugh:
 
mhm... I looted a small cooking pot from an umbra the other night. Description says it's ancient and auction history said there's only one other sold. If you turn it upside down it makes a decent helm. So, does it count? I'm confident it protects me from alien death rays that try to brain wash me. May look a bit silly, but it's for a good cause, isn't it?
:)
 
so part 2, another skill gain event and a award cermony after for the person that has both helemts and will receive a prize...

bit if a lame ending dont ya think...


unless there saving the rest of it for the new cinematic game engine...

Where does it say it's a skill gain event? Other than normal skills gained when doing normal stuff of course.

just a guess, since the last mutant event (part 1) was skill gain ;)
