[7.2.1] That will be dealt with - Vector - 4/24/07

Operatives,

My apologies for being overly...terse following the security incident in Shinjuku. An unusually high allocation of resources is causing delayed System response times. We expect that this situation will be rectified in the near future.

Efficiently,

Agent Gray

On behalf of the Machinist's of the Vector instance, I thank you for questioning our efficiency. Clearly your analyzation protocols need to be upgraded, because over Twenty Five Merv operatives and the last remaining Unlimit, remember the trouble they caused?, is obviously a real easy ride for a group of Twelve Machinists. None of us will forget that, Systematic Chaos, Ronin and Silent Shadows alike.

Deal with it.

Really doesnt exist on Vector too much anymore :(

So did Yass get a reward for killing the sniper? 

And P.S. I like it that you got two screenshots of me getting owned by the commando.  (I'm in the White Gi)

Yes, that was one of the many things that surprised me in the course of this event. Props to you for representin'.

(( Don't really get the story of the event, i get the scenario and all just not the story, seemed to be a bit all over the place. But hey, from what Rarebit said in the other thread maybe things got hard to manage. Must've been some good combat - always gotta love Beirn, heh ))

((Yeah getting one hit killed by 2 different characters for the best part of 2 hours was definitely cool...but hey! it was worth it in the end, right?. ))

You're totally right!

Oh... wait...

Interesting event i want to know why it was reported on by agent gray but he didnt show until the last 2 screenies

((Presumably Rare wanted things to move on, The event lasted between 3-4 hours, Machinists had to battle elite's and an outnumbering group of Mervs, then got smoked by Beirn for a good 20minutes then had to fight a commando which didn't drop it's Regen and gave out One hit kills for half an hour, plus you had the mervs ganking The Machinists. It was a pretty successful Machine event. We did a *CENSORED* load of damage to the Elite, got him down to half health a few times, but i guess that wasn't enough.))

((Clearly not, Mero's could not attack it either. although they could attack the Other spawns earlier.. i had to hop on my mech ;-/ and even then there was like 2 teams max around the thing.. kinda sucked. it was pretty good event for the mero part though.. it was nice to see persphone out with Beirn))

((Machine events ftw!))

don't think so.. systematica said something about agent gray and there not being enough machinists making it our fault i guess ?

/holdhandsup

Yeah, SC and Ronin will take the blame for that.

(( This is what they mean by "writing Matrix history" and "participating in the unfolding story." Our inability to get the job done has thus affected the storyline as, apparently, something else was supposed to happen aside from us being one-shotted by the Elite for thirty minutes. Incidentally, this is not the first Machine Event on Vector that's ended with us getting smeared across the digital pavement. But I look at it like this; the statement we grew up on is even more true than ever! MACHINES = HARD MODE. Arguably, they needed those 30 Merovingian and an Unlimit to beat the 12-15 Machines we had. I know we sent the majority of the Mervs who stepped foot outside of that eatery back to the loading area and we did it efficiently. Gray is overly analytical and he's a bastard for it, but what do you expect from an Agent? He's stoic and void of feeling, but we choose to work for the Machines and they choose to put him in charge of Field Ops. Perhaps we'd do better with a friendlier face, such as Agent Pace, running our operations? But then that's not what she's designed for.

Our only solution is to push harder, even if we're already giving all we've got. Sooner or later we'll be recognized for our hard work, especially if what Systematica has said is true. Our labors are noted and appreciated. Regardless of Gray's condescending tone, I didn't see him arrive on scene when the Unlimit was crushing all of our Operatives... Take comfort in knowing that we lack the ability to lie down and die... We stayed vigilant to the very end, no matter how outgunned and outmanned we were. We were never outclassed...

 Well, except for:

Yasamuu was just killed by Beirn.
Epsilon was just killed by Beirn.
Kir0s was just killed by Beirn.
sithlord979 was just killed by Beirn.
LilJade was just killed by Beirn.
FreakONature was just killed by Beirn.
GlueVane was just killed by Beirn.
W4rbl4de: It's you and me, Beirn!
W4rbl4de was just killed by Beirn. )

((Honestly, i felt he under analyzed it. If he'd accurately looked at it, he would have realised what we were up against and evaluated all circumstances. I found it an impatient knee-jerk reaction, which I wouldn't normally expect from an Agent))

(( This is what I expect from an Agent: Johnson, Gray, and Miller appear, followed by:

Agent Johnson: Unlimit Beirn...
Agent Gray: Cease your activity...
Agent Miller: And surrender....
Agent Gray: Your escape is...
ALL: Impossible.

Agent Gray's Kill Code affects Beirn.
Beirn was just killed by Agent Gray. ))

(( Then I /ribkick the corpse. ))

That was a fun event just took forever for Lady P to show up. Nice oppostion play by the machines.
