Even though, VU 9 is available no one posted any comments on it. What is your opinion on this VU guys?

For me, only good thing is updated avatar look. With all those new fancy eye-candies avatars look really nice. Also some clothes look nice but... really, I haven't noticed any decay on my RL clothes while I'm dressing myself up. On the other hand, I don't think that my clothes would survive close meeting with mobs (using chomper instead of iron would be really bad idea). Well maybe MA staff lives in other dimension with different laws of physics? And armour decay. OMG Armour which is supposed to reduce dmg (especially surprisong for high end amours) now is damaged every time I put it on.

I know that it is case of taste but new armors look is quite odd for me. I know I will get used to it sooner or later but I just don't like it. MA should create new models on basis of old ones. I liked those much more and I'd like to see those in high def.

And last (but not least ), loots. I haven't noticed any bigger changes but market reacted on this VU by lowering prices of almost all paints. This means that I have to find other kind of mobs for skilling up.

I'm not sure if seeing my avatar in better quality was worth all those changes. I'll just wait and see what MA will do further?

Yea personally i think the clothing and armour equipping decay is just stupid and although MA always does things to make more money, this is the most blatent... It's alright though if you just hunt the one mob over and over because you never swap armour. Although it was good to be a little more realistic and when you were just walking around town, to take your armour off. Oh well, my ava can just bare the weight of the armour at all times

Well, I prefered better gun instead of good armour but now I must consider hunting without armour. I don't like give away free PEDs for MA. They have to work a bit harder to get my PECs

Honestly, I am tired of hearing people complain about the equipping fee. Honestly, it is 2 PEC which is 2/10 of one cent. I personally don't see what the big deal is but thats just me. Not that I dislike anyone who has a problem with it I really just don't see what the big deal is.

As for everything else, it seemed to be a good VU except for the slowing of movement and need for seriously increased video hardware.

Actually i made a topic for all things on the VU to go into it. Thx for searching xD.
In any case, i really dont like this VU too much, only new thing is armor and visuals, which is pretty cool. I wish they would make all guns more common drops to lower eco, im gettin really pissed looking for a Ml-35 And now having to think of depositing over $1,000 USD for a gun i only had to pay ~$150 on before...Or a maddox, which is easily made now going for ~800 when they used to be ~10 or highest was ~90. Prices are really horrible and i hope they fix them.

L guns are nice but i just dont like the constant idea of buying a new one.
As for the armor, i dont like the decay just because its a hassle, You can lose a bit of money if you cant decide which armor to wear and keep switching and unconsciously you lose money xD.
Hopefully things will eventually get better though

I know it isn't much but I used to changed clothes/armours few times during day. I know it may sound stupid but it was part of the fun for me (some of my soc mates knows why). Now I'll have to rduce number of outfit changes. I simply prefer to buy few more bullets than pay for decaying clothes.As I said, if MA want's their 2/10 pf one cent thay have to try a bit harder.

I haven't noticed any increase in hardware requirements due to simple fact that I have bought new laptop. Yeah, I forgot about slower movement. But animation of run seems to be better than it used to be.

I can see what you are saying about some of this stuff but there are a couple things I do not agree with. Maddox IV is not easily made, platinum is still hard as hell to find and you need platinum to make them.

I do have a question though, how long have you been playing? ML-35 has been ultra expensive for at least two years and the maddox IV is a LOT cheaper than it was this time last year.

Just be glad you don't have a $7,000 USD gun, $5,000 USD armor, $18,000 USD FAP, etc. like some of my friends have.

I think these dynamics are what makes entropia great. There is game play available for people of all levels. the problem imho is everyone feels they are entitled to the same things as everyone else and it just isn't true.

Yea it's not a big deal really its just these little 'slide of hand' things that MA does to earn that little bit more off us. I mean a typical armour at the moment is made up of 6 parts (not including foot guards). So thats 12 pec to take your armour off and put it back on. And yea 12 pec isnt much but it's just the fact MA even put it in there which bugs me.

What if they implement a services tax of 2 pec every time you use the terminals (TT, repair, etc.). Thats not much, but its damn annoying lol.

Sorry mate, I must have missed it when I was catching up with forum. I hope you won't rage at me for that.

I agree that market value of items has chenged a lot. I'll wait week or 2 before choosing new mobs for skilling. Market prices must calm down.

Yeah I can absolutely see your point. It just doesn't bother ME personally. Probably a sad statement that i have learned to accept shit like this from MA.

Iv been playing sinse like VU 4 or something? Sinse i was 11...No idea...
But, i remember when i bought my first ML when i was really nooby for about 1.1k and then sold it back cause i sucked and dint have enough skills so i thought it wasnt as good. Iv run through alot of weapons and if i wanted one back it would be the ml or stark 147/129/117. Only reason im not as high skilled as some people that have been playing for a shorter time is cause i didnt have enough money to shoot through those weapons, but now i do, but lower weapons CAUSE PRICES SUCKZ0RZ :/

hehe i was joking about thread thing i dont really care .
As for everything else, its pretty much fine to me though. Trying to switch to light amps, gonna hopefully start doing that and only 5k ammo hunts now :'(
