Hacker is the Uber class once again

Yeh, MKT doesnt have good viral defense and they are not supposed to be good vs. hacker. MA on the other hand is strong against hacker because we have good viral defense. But, on the flipside, MA is not good against knife throwers. Its all...

The Other Side of the Looking Glass - Friday, December 8, 2006

I think it would be really cool if they introduced some new clothing articles into the game for this. They dont have to have buffs comparable to archive drops, but maybe slightly better than normal clothes. Oh, and make them only obtainabl...

I love how there is still one of those old "Dont trust the Frenchman" flyers in the screenshot. Ahhh maybe thats why they have still left those pointless flyers in the game, they are the luggables!! lol

Yes I am aware that the rate has been quadrupled fairly recently. And yes i always do my mining in Creston. But I still think it is not high enough. It is far less efficient than grinding missions, which is unfortunate. Thats not even to m...

Data Miner

Yeh hopefully the devs will realize this and change it up some. i definitely like your idea of more rare, but bigger data mines that give much more info, instead of about 100 small, one-tap ones that are really close together.

Yeh i agree. I think the timer should be made shorter on the data tap or make it where you can tap all the data at once from the big ones. That way you wouldnt have to tap them four times to get all the info from them which takes forever....

Um, just a side question if u dont mind answering as well, are there any plans of adding other abilities that grant initiative other than desperation? and could you tell us how much exactly initiative effects your accuracy?

It is supposed to be this way, although we are hoping to see this changed soon. The buff say IS regen/max IS BONUS. A bonus means that it applies to an ability that is used. So you would only see that bonus come into play, if you casted an...
