New Stat Hack missions

Great idea, good implementation. I presume I'm only on the first one of a series, but it's pitched at just about the right arduousness. Seraph = good, dragging a level one bluepill over 1.5 Kilometers in-game ... ouch

EDIT: This is the point where sims really come in useful, you can send them ahead to kill the mobs while you stay back with the bluepill

I ran through it today, stayed to the center of the roads. I only agroed 3 guys the whole time. I also kinda planned the trip ahead looking for the most straight forward path without having to guy up elevated roads. Pretty good idea if you ask me, the mission that is.

I did it twice at the frakin timer ran out before i could get him to the building.  I like that ya have to travel a long distance but the timer kinda conflicts with Seraph's statment about patience.

Just IMO.

Seems to be a lot of peoples concern too, timers obviously too short.

I cant get on the test server for various reasons so can someome, explain what this mission is? Do you haev to take the zion route on it? and if its to recieve a stat hack then it SHOULD be very difficult to complete, other wise people will have laods and just use the RSI hack when they change there loadout every time.

There's instructions on accessing the QA server here.  If it doesn't work than contact customer support.

To get the mission you just go to your org's Archivist and buy the RSI hack ticket, ya use the ticket which gives you a mission in Tabor Park.  In the mission you talk to Seraph and he tells you to escort this bluepill all the way to a building in Moriah Projects.  That's like from one end of the map to the other and it's not really wise to use hyper speed cause the npc is just lvl 1 and wouldn't be able to keep up with you.

The farthest i've been able to get is to Midian park and i get 'Mission Failed'.  Has anyone else NOT been able to complete the mission or is it just me?

I had no problem completing it the first time through, although I did out-run the bluepill and have to go back for him a few times

What I'm hoping is that this mission is the first of a series. So this, which I do regard as reasonably easy, is nowhere near the difficulty of the later ones.

With that said, I'm going to ry another one when I get home and see if there are more.

Cheers for that info bud! I know all about the QA Server and how to use it etc , my issues with accessing it are problems with my computer so i can only get on it when i go home to visit my parents!

Indeed. There's a point where if it's too hard to get a stat hack, then there is no point in even trying. People who are trying for one are possibly people who set their stats incorrectly thus it's even harder for them as they won't be at top performance. Although I suppose a variety of missions could be made, with differing degrees of difficulty and price. The hardest mission being the cheapest to buy and the easiest being the most expensive.

yea i like how its done, its not "easy" but its not hard at all , just stick to main roads and the opposite sides of where gangs maybe... but maybe cause i make sigs etc, im was happy the fact we get seraph in the mission so we can take good screenshots for varous projects lol

Ahhh thank you for the feedback about the mission timer. The mission timers are a set value, but I could add a stop halfway down which would double the time you have. And add a little more danger getting to the mission area

you know how you can do that, have a random spawn of mobs player level jump in , just like in missions  , lol

Aww, I'd thought that maybe it would be missions increasing in difficulty the more times you wanted to get a stat hack

Two comments then. Please add some more difficulty in. Best case would be a spawn of two same-playey-level mobs spawning as soon as you leave the building, and maybe a stop on the way to kill another 1 level higher 3 chev. Made it so that they don't attack the bluepill, obviously

Also, $10,000 info seems very, very low. I'd be happier with a figure of around $1,000,000. There's no real need to have a re-hack until lvl 20 or so, at which point a million info is quite attainable. As it is atm I can kill a lvl 40 1 chev mob and get more info that I would spend on the stat hack token item.
