    This is making me go back for sure.

    Dropped the game a while ago because of lack of content. Now that is what I call awesome.

    Lets put this into perspective:

    Non-subs can only get 20 merc tokens and 2 conquest tokens a day. It takes 200 tokens to buy one mercenary item, meaning 10 days of running a few missions thanks to the limit. It also takes 50 conquest tokens to buy a conquest item, meaning you'd have to run two missions a day (1 token per win at level 30+, remember as a non-sub you don't get AvA so you can't get 4 a day from that anyway) for 25 days.

    Reminds me more and more of WoW where you need to run the same instance/raid for months at a time to get a single item drop you need.

    I must agree with you Arri , for so muchfanboy a im towards Global Agenda alot of niftpick stuff on this 1.3 i do not like : balance and the p2p vs f2p limitation.

    even still its not worth p2p there no new content (besides few new maps , raiding system ) the rest is just a overhaul of the old system

    what are these mercenary/conquest items u talk about? isnt it just the same as the weapon/armor drops u get from pve bosses and/or winning pvp matches?

    sorry if i missed a line in patchnotes explaining this.

    but if its the same i think
    tokens are to buy stuff with , f2p are very restricted on this ( i can say BS cause we buy the disk from) but anyhow , p2p get X amount of token per day just by logging in . with these tokens u buy items , other stuff in the shops

    what items, what stuff? lol that still doesnt answer my question.

    if tokens get u the same kind of items u get from:
    Weapons of all quality levels can be obtained as loot for winning a Mercenary PvP mission, or killing a boss in a PvE mission. Low and Medium PvE missions drop only Common and Uncommon weapons. Higher level PvE will drop higher-quality loot (based on a dice roll). Mercenary PvP drops all quality levels of weapons (based on a dice roll).
    then i dont see the problem with these tokens.

    yeah your right theres just to much stuff to remember lol. already forgot about Ultra Max security PVE for a sec thats gotta be insane, but probably great for grinding the new type of crafting components if its filled with hundreds of enemy robots lol

    I'm happy. For me, this game is better than WoW so it's earned my P2P money.

    I've got Allods online on the side for any medieval grinding.

    I like the additions time to grind my recon to lvl 34 to try the new smg

    and yes more and more stuff is being stripped from us b2pers...we will see just how bad it gets by phase three cause really i can understand the conquest part blah blah but if they **** with pve to much that can piss off.

    Only thing really getting taken away that wasn't talked about before a few weeks ago is we don't get high/max/double agent, but they are replacing that with the first open area zone.

    Also this is a MMOTPS, not a FPS :x
    not really.

    I've had from the start of the game to now to come up with an opinion, and that's what happened.

    and with the free players getting shafted more and more it'll get harder and harder to find an agency that won't require you to P2P.

    I also don't intend to spend weeks joining random agencies that are spammed in city chat only to find out they don't know how to play/don't play at all anyway..

    Which is why you avoid all the spammers and check up on the forums for Agency recruitments.

    I am playing atm. Level 15 Medic (I bought the game a long time ago and didnt play it much after launch).

    I really like the update. It feels alot more like an RPG, and still has great FPS gameplay.

    Arri recruit some friends to play with you. I got my friend to play and he rolled assault and robotics, and we roll people in pve and pvp. You dont need the whole team to cooperate in mercenary pvp. Just a few people that know what they are doing to follow around ^^.

    I never have assaults in my PvE missions for some reason anyone want to ? My ign is bearhugs. It would be a nice change from Medic Robo Recon Recon -.- lol.

    Also anyone have crafting leveled up? I could use some healing and max hp upgrades.

    the pvp in this game is awesome though. you are really missing out if you dont try it.

    AVA and Mercenary are both tons of fun.

    I just play with my IRL friend (Robo/Medic) and it doesnt really matter who joins us when we queue, we can basically 2 man stuff. It just takes longer, so we queue for 2 more people.

    Sniper Recons are great, but the ones that try and stealth and melee and stuff are so fail .

    Also Assaults that dont know how to tank and just charge in. I heal them til im out of power but they die still .

    I love the boosts in the game, they make it so much more fun, because you really try hard not to die so you can save up for your boost. it makes a huge difference.
