Ok, i really love this game and i'm more or less satisfied with this update but i must say that what you did to CND is just a BIG failure.

I know it's nice to play with a tool like cry and make plenty of lovely nice montains but ... if we are not able to climb them to extract our claims THERE IS NO POINT.

I had a small run on CND and "lost" 2 out of 5 claims because there were just NOT REACHABLE.

Support case on the way ...

Just look here ...

Now my rant is OVER !
 
The whole mining process has now become a giant piece of turd. Due to all the freaking hills everywhere that for some reason are stupidly hard to walk on, and then there's all the stupid bloody cliffs in the middle of no where, they're like random ledges that you have to find a way AROUND. WTF?

That's what makes it fun, im a miner ill see how it is. Ive gotten mines like that before just takes a couple snabbles and some rope.
 
For some reason i`ve got poor, small claims up there, gonna relog and see if it stays the same. Was doin ores btw...
 
ahhhhh the complaints :D...honestly MA should have installed stairs lol! what were they thinking?

You have to see CND ... the Everest is just a small hill compared to what they did there.

Dude, when you pay 25 ped to go up there, and 25 to come back down, just to realise shit ain`t right....
Gonna prepare a support ticket soon
 
Additional rant ...


We can now find Very Poor III on CND unamped !!
 
lol .. I thought the problem was that it was a VI on CND .. then I just saw you can get iii, now too!

:lolup:

I'm not logging in yet .. but I can be sure to be careful where I drop my bombs, now. :wise:
 
I have found that on CND before. But it scares me with the hills. I was only able to play and hour before works and dropped a few around emerald and the hills were a bit tricky but it is still very new so hopefully they will correct that. I am dieing to go back to CND but scared just the same.
 
Ty to stay constructive in posting the issues.
If you don't want to be hassled with the startup problems, wait a few weeks.

Otherwise ... be prepared to get a shower of problems :D

I'm looking forward to the bugs but can't get it yet ;)
 
Looks like a reset of loot?
 
Here is a picture of dome 4

Guys did you just play a bit or spend your time on stupid test cases ?????

This is not sure, i'm finding a lot of III, i am currently thinking that the loot ratio is the same than on the planet now.


EDIT : I can now confirm that ... finder range on CND is the same as on the Planet
 
not only that but no disco, no radio, hardilly anything, its ruined, killed, dead as a dodo, cant do events here anymore, should have been closed untill all parts of the old cnd is back

dissapointing

yep, can you say " bye bye, carpet bombing"?:D
and everybody should stack up on shelves, just in case:) carpenting crafting will flourish:)
 
Rather than dropping bombs can you go to each dome and take a few screenshot, thank you and good luck. :)
 
Nice trox pit of death. Good thing is there is a place to train all the trox, bad news is you'll never get out....lol
 
Had a 100 bomb run there and hit two hofs but overall I was scared to drop a bomb because I didnt want to spend an hour trying to get to the top of some hill (felt like a mountain). Need to find a flat piece of real estate before i drop anymore. Found my claims and got out of there. Dome 4 is a mess I agree with that. There are walking paths down to the ponds but they are not fun to climb out of.
 
I went to dome 16 for dasp. No dasp there atm. Best 50 PED I ever spent. :)

Ran toward PVP4, 4 no loots followed by 1 claim without a claim rod. I relogged and now I can't get back in on any of 4 computers all capable of running EU at max settings. I'm guessing it is something to do with putting the graphics on highest settings in game since my sister can currently log in.

This thread will help you :laugh: Oh the irony.
 
I just found a tiny II in dome 3. :eek:

And extracting claims is next to impossible, because you can barely climb those effing mountains. Or because you can't focus the claim markers.
 
Went up to CND to hunt trox but instead, I found myself looking for a way back to the tp without any trox. Lost 50 ped for nothing :( Ah well, had to have more patience i think instead of going immediatly up there.
 
Off-topic here, But being as now you can find IIs up there, drilling problems aside, has the hit-rate changed also?

Yes, I'd say same as planet-side.

MA totally crappyfied the uniqueness of mining on CND.
 
glad

It is 10:00pm New York time. I am downloading Entropia VU 10.0 via torrent, and its 11.7%. So, yes, Im kind of late.


Not only have i heard complaints about the Mining on CND. But the same problems have been an issue on calypso. The Crappy loot, Not being able to climb hills, Lost and Unclaimable hits.

Im glad im hearing this, and I am glad I am late with the VU. The only thing that seems to be working a bit is the hunting. I will stick with that.


also in addition TI and other places have had Mob problems, especially with the bigger animals.

THe glitches and the Lag, and other problems MA should make the loots very loose to make up for the peds lost due to bugs and glitches.

I went to CND today, to see how it looks like... I wanted to test the teleporter and storage and see the domes.
It's a bit crazy what is going on up there... with curent avatar movement it's impossible to climb most of the hills there. I had lost a claim that was on a top of such a hill... 20mins I didn't make it to climb up. I tried all ways I could see, all paths, all techniques.

Another problem are the stones that avatars can't run through. I know it's all closer to reality, but I had a claim in one of those.... lost again, no way to get to it. My seeker was showing 2m distance, I could see the *claim marker* but when I took out the excavator it said that i need to aim it at the claim... I was too far.

Now, CND is mostly a mining place (now there are no mobs at all there so it's ONLY mining spot for a few days), it is totally crazy to make the place like that. C'mon guys... do something about that plz. I know you said before that there are some places where you can't get to excavate, but on CND? Honestly guys... don't do that.
I didn't loose much, the claims were not big. But I already feel sorry for the poor miner that hits a tower on a top of a hill...


EDIT ON HIT RATE
There is no tax on CND now. That is why mining is like on the planet. Hit rate and sizes are like on Calypso.
When tax comes back I suppose it will be as it used to be.
