The crafting will come probably Friday of this week. Just had some stuff we had to figure out that was a bit more complicated than originally thought.

- REMEMBER - with the new inventory system, etc., if it's too good to be true it's probably not intended and you should report what you've found. Please report any and all issues with the new systems directly via PM to Kurt & I. Thank you.

So, I'm just wondering what the logic was behind nerfing salvage so hard. I can understand the price reduction, but taking away half the wrecks on the map seems a bit far. Yes some were out of the way, but using those also required you to be far more creative. Additionally, the removal of my favourite salvage connoisseur stings a bit as well. I'd love to see it go back to the depth rule versus the marked and Southwest centric wrecks we have now. 

Just my two cents.

I believe the majority of money made on the server was from salvage to the point where it was like twice the next closest run. That’s a decent reason to change things up.

Maybe the fail is in the devs not telling Corps+ that lethal money is only being TEMPORARILY increased to 600k until lethal payout is fixed.

Link to comment

i mean in the initial update notes like when it went from 200k to 600k put a note for it being temporary until lethal payout system is fixed or something... doesnt matter whose to blame...

it just appears the corp, specifically, are upset with the change, which means the change to 600K seems to of been portrayed as a buff, not a hotfix until the issue with lethal money was resolved.

didnt mean to call the devs specifically out.. just when server mechanic changes are made, the devs typically control how that change is portrayed to the player-base in posts such as this one.

APD just needs to go back to it's 2014 days of you having to actually RP by seeing someone commit a crime or being able to "know the face" of a criminal with a high bounty over a certain amount :/

Yeah no when SAPD requests a change we expect them to spread the info about it. If they didn’t, not our problem.

I think the market is fucked again. We did a gang run of mushrooms and the market dropped half price before we were even halfway done selling. If you want the time stamp for the logs it was on server 3 at 7:25pm est

used to happen to us and the reason for this is if someone sold a backpack worth the market wont drop until you start selling. not sure if this is just a coincidence though

Nothing changed with it in the last update, but add a ticket to the tracker and I'll take a look.

It has the spawn chance of the thermal night visions. No one ever did the bw because the loot became dog shit. Having someone very OP and only 1 will spawn maybe once in a blue moon will make people grind for it. Plus Guaranteed Pilot Coveralls so you are not completely wasting your time.

So I noticed the price of cocaine is 3.3k instead of 2.9k. If I reprocess cocaine, do I get OVER 3.3k per or is the 3.3k in the market the price of the reprocessed drug?

As mentioned, double processed is always 25% more.
