Nice. New content for Datamine.

Nicksie · 03/26/2008 13:49:23

They're getting tougher!!!

Danger_Frog1471 · 03/26/2008 13:51:20

*pray's this is going to be replayable content* SMILEY (a la PB)

looks interesting anyway SMILEY

Phluff · 03/26/2008 14:00:52

Ooooo... I can still take'him!

wonder what the loot will be. hmmmm.

SolidRevolver · 03/26/2008 14:05:57

I wonder if there will be a special twist to it, or will it just be 'Kill, Loot, Trade'

Still, its something to inject a little life back into Datamine.

Then we go, 'We're bore' because weve done it all. SMILEY

Looks neat though!

Vesuveus · 03/26/2008 14:17:59

SSR = Security Service Rep?

If memory serves, Rarebit said that the items that are looted are consumables - and generally more usefull than what they're traded for. I imagine that they can be traded for cool looking but unimpressively buffed clothing.

The items that are looted are consumables - They can be traded for cool looking and impressively buffed clothing?

ObliGoblin · 03/26/2008 14:29:43

new content inside datamine... yay!

Rarebit · 03/26/2008 14:30:22

Getting colder...

Phluff · 03/26/2008 14:32:23

The items looted will be connected with data tapping somehow?

Procurator · 03/26/2008 14:33:43

Colder?!

The items that are looted are consumables. They can be traded for terrible looking and moderately buffed clothing?

03/26/2008 14:33:43

They don't look cool AND they have unimpressive buffs?

SMILEY

CPT_Starschwar · 03/26/2008 14:35:04

They're consumables that can be traded for clothing with no buffs at all?

Croesis · 03/26/2008 14:36:15

Not consumable and cannot be traded at all?

Oh, he said started out well... edible but nasty tasting consumable that can't be traded... you have to eat it...?

Phluff · 03/26/2008 14:36:52

They're consumables that can be traded for 'something' that will keep the agents phrom spawning on you in datamine? ...that would be sweet. ^_^

NightTrace · 03/26/2008 14:37:10

The consumables can be used to obtain more moves akin to the shadow-razor etc, but can be traded in for um....non-buffed clothing? New disguises?....cookies?

Dulux · 03/26/2008 14:39:52

Sandwiches?

Trading in the consumable gives you a more full featured DN1 search?!?!?!

Dont need to search to break DN1. It breaks itself. Nuff said.

And search for what exactly? Neo?

"It's looking like I'm not going to have bosses and new clothing items done for update 59. 59 will (hopefully) open the interiors of the two main buildings, add NPCs with new consumable drops to some of those interior spaces, and add a new collector who will take those consumables in exchange for a couple items that will be useless to some people, but hopefully of significant interest to others."

Doesn't tell us much. SMILEY<img src=

Believe it or not, me, too.

ReProgrammed · 03/26/2008 14:58:03

So did any one else notice to gold code trickling up off the main on? (might be rarebit, but I hope not)

Level 41...meh...not as hard as I would have liked, hope there is a few of them.

That was a good way to start off my morning. Thanks NightTrace, i needed that.

Croesis · 03/26/2008 15:01:22

Hmmm.... traded for something useless to most but interesting to some...

wonder what that might be...

ReProgrammed · 03/26/2008 15:03:53

role-play clothing?

HostileIntention · 03/26/2008 15:06:50

Consumable disguises?

I just can't see it being RSI pills or special moves, if there were new ones they would be added to the preexisting locations/quests... I think.

Croesis · 03/26/2008 15:07:00

Oooh, oooh..... a Pinky sparkly Shirt or Aura! Yay!

Zudrag · 03/26/2008 15:09:55

Consumables that boost your data mining abilities? i dunno, lol.

It would be nice to have a mission-based quest (similar to the Smith quest/Pandora's Box/winter quest) that would only work in Datamine. A nice way to use those buildings...

It would be nice to have some cool RP items... consumable disguises, etc. Would be a nice way to get more people into Datamine than just $info farmers and pvpers.

EDIT: Oh, and if you don't want Agents to spawn on you in Datamine, then stop using a Scrambler 0.4. I use an Extractor 3.0 in Datamine... never had an Agent spawn once for me. Plus, it yields more $info. Sure, the spawns aren't as good, but who's in Datamine to get spawns? You can do that in Creston.

hmmmm.... I get agent spawns with my 3.0 too. :/

Aquatium. · 03/26/2008 15:34:52

Based on the level of the spawns, you know the items will serve as a trade in for XP from the kills, but a double use for high levels? probally some kind of temp buff which grats a short datamine tapping bonus?

I guess the Agents just don't like you... SMILEY

Double post... SMILEY

MotorZ · 03/26/2008 17:30:43

The Agents spawning for Phluff should be lower levels, like 55 or 65. The lvl 255's only spawn with the 0.4 I'm pretty sure.

Too bad I wasn't on earlier, I knew it was an item.

I always remember Rare's posts. Don't always comprehend but....
