Signal boosters only provide a 1 point bonus?

Well, currently I'm level 17 and still only getting 1 point. Is anyone getting more than a 1 point bonus from a signal booster? As far as the shoes, correct.. they only required level 8 to wear, but the difficulty rating (as far as compili...

Signal boosters only provide a 1 point bonus?

Often, here on the forum, I read comments from posters quoting sizable skillpoint gains when standing next to a satellite dish. However, I'm only seeing a 1 point increase in my compile, decompile, and repair skills when under the effects...

Zion Outpost Areas - Honest Opinion?

I'm not sure why people keep insisting that Zion doesn't care about appearances, and all things classy and stylish fit only with the realm of the Merovingian faction. I can't remember a single Zion character in the movies that didn't dress...

Where have all the outdoor exile NPCs (on Recursion) gone?

It's much worse. I created a new character and attempted to go hunting in Uriah. In the span of 20 minutes I could only find 3 NPC exiles to kill: one hidden behind the containers on the warf where you start (where there used to be tons),...

Where have all the outdoor exile NPCs (on Recursion) gone?

When I first started playing the game a month or so ago, there was an ample supply of exile NPCs out in the open to fight everywhere I looked. The respawn rate on them was fairly quick as well (perhaps a bit too quick, although I'm sure th...

Trouble Getting into the Exile Hideout in Uriah Ind Park

That place is tricky to get into, although I guess that's the point of a hideout. What's probably throwing you off more than anything is that the icon does not represent the entrance to the base. The entrance to the base is on one of the b...

Baby Redpill with a fistfull of questions.

There is no sidekicking or mentoring system here. As someone else mentioend, the level of the enemies you encounter in a mission are equal to the average of the levels that make up your mission team. If the highest level and lowest level t...

Zion Outpost Areas - Honest Opinion?

I really have to disagree with the line of thinking that suggests that since Zion is forced to live in caves in the real world, they don't care at all about appearances in the Matrix. Every dingy Zion operative that jacks into the Matrix s...

Hyper Dodge

Let me go post 3921 more times to show exactly how much that line of thinking is worth. In all seriousness, if you are able to cram the ability into memory, you should keep it running all the time. Since you can only actively run one or th...

Specific questions about lag and performance

I have a pretty decent system. But to give you an example of how wacky this performance problem can be, tonight I logged in, and after the code effect faded away and I was left standing around at a vacant hardline, I could immediately tell...

Hyper Dodge

I was under the impression that Hyperdodge not only cost IS to activate, but also whenever an attack missed you due to the bonus the buff provided, it drained a bit more inner-strength. Several times now I've seen the telltale motion blur...

Specific questions about lag and performance

I've seen the exact same problem. The game seems to run very smoothly, but eventually performance starts to degrade sharply. I suspect there are some memory leaks at work here. Sometimes I can go for over an hour without seeing a performan...

WTS Clothing (catalog included!)

Just wanted to say I got some nice outfit pieces I had been looking for, and I'm really glad Tsusai took the time to make a visual catalog. I would love to see more people doing this. Personally, I'm not familiar enough with the various pi...

Video Ads....since when?

I don't mind the video adds, although I feel they'd make more sense in a more modern city district than the slums. The only thing that really bothers me is the range of the audio. Some of the mission buildings are near video billboards and...

Looking for an up-to-date recipe list.

Even though you can't create items without already knowing the recipe, each recipe consists of certain combinations of code bits, right? Are the ones listed in the guide not valid at all anymore? For instance, to craft the "Combat Insight"...

Questions regarding decompiling and item stability.

So, it sounds like the condition of an item when you decompile it has no bearing on the quality of the blueprint that is placed in your list of "recipes", nor does it affect any copies of that item you make in the future. Can a crafted ite...

Looking to purchase "Armored Black Yoshi Triga Trench".

This is a low level item, but I was wondering if anyone can make an "Armored Black Yoshi Triga Trench"? That stats on it are "Melee Damage Resistance (6pts)" and "Ballistic Damage Resistance (6pts)". If you're willing to make this item, pl...

Anyone ever find anything on the other floors in mission buildings?

Up until now I've been searching every floor of every building I go into for a mission. On most floors the elevator doors won't even open, but there are always a few floors that have small areas you can search around in (in addition to the...

The effects of grouping on missions?

Thanks a lot for the help. Do missions scale in difficulty as you add more members to your team (i.e. more enemy NPCs are spawned within the mission)? Or is adjusting the mission to "hard" and increasing the NPCs level the only way to make...

Is there a limit on how many abilities you can have?

When you refer to loading them all at the same time, I assume you're talking about "memory" (which increases slowly in size as your character progresses in levels) and the memory footprint of each program. That part I'm aware of and unders...
