Man, the real story here is the skull.
It dont really care what it suggests, the mere fact it was talking is creepy...
First of all. Android isnt an instant success guarantee that some people seem to postulate.
Obviously you need to distinguish yourself. I mean, rock solid hardware, bloody good cameras, you know things like that.
But the big, bloody obious point to be made. Do you know a single phone manufacturer that sells more Windows phones than Android phones? I mean, quite a few have both in stock. There are enough models around that are available with either Android or Windows. Please enlighten me if there are any of those that actually sell better with Windows.
Hmm, so how many things did Apple patent that they didnt bother to implement?
And givent he fact that most testers probably wont find a test candidate to chop a finger off ill guess i just
The phones these days are so bloody wonderful that apart from adding a Fleshlight and 3D holograms, what the heck else do you want.
There have already been several phones with 3D displays, didnt seem to be something people were really interested in.
And, uhm, i heard fanbois of the various smartphone vendors love their phones, but seriously, you know a marketing slogan like "Life Companion" probably wasnt meant you should actually, well, do that bees and flowers stuff with a phone.
So, what you're saying is that there is a game mechanic (the XP system) whose effects are to make the game less fun by turning it into work, but which you can pay real money to lessen, and you don't see that as a problem?
Yeah, having an "XP system" is obviously a pretty stupid idea. I doubt it will catch on in any MMO or MMORPG.
The top tier Cool Shot is what the author is saying was pay-to-win. I never used one. I built my mechs to not overheat and thus take advantage of opponents who did.
You must be kidding. Even 3 medium lasers are enough to overheat a mech on all but the coldest maps. With double heat sinks that is.
So you only play with machine guns and Gauss rifles?
Aside from that, yes, Cool shot is pretty much crap.
They have been reading to many BattleTech novels (aka Game of Thrones IN SPACE).
After reading the article it seems to me there is that cool shot item ( how long to grind that out?)
It costs 15k GXP (one time XP cost) to upgrade coolshot-9 modules into coolshot 9x9 modules which are identical to the coolshot 18 (pay currency version).
At around 50-100 GXP per match (~8 minutes) thats about 20-40h of playing the game to be able to upgrade it. Its not used much though (there are non-consumable modules which are better on basicly every build).
There is no reason, in this day and age, that developers need to be making massive game destroying mistakes like this. There are many business models out there that skirt the "pay to win" boundary without crossing it that they could have copied (see LoL, Eve, PS2, etc). It's just incompetence on the part of the developers.
Actually there is not a single p2w item in the game. You can get all the consumables with in game currency as well, though it does take a while to grind the skills to have the cbill (ingame) versions just as good as the mc (pay-currency) versions.
Aside from that you can buy "hero" and "champion" mechs, which have a cbill or experience bonus respectivly. No in-match advantages though, just makes grinding faster, similiar to "premium time" which lets you gain cbills and experience faster.
The only item you definately need to buy if you play this game after a while are "mech-bays". You only have 4 of those at the start of the game, and assuming you want more than 4 mechs you need to buy more.
I heard there some empty flats in Ramsar and Guarapari.
