    Great idea. It will help paying players AND free to play players.

    This is a no for me. The cubes are fine just the way they are.
     
  3. 4 cubes that take 5 minits to respawn each and 10 players trying to solo them is not fine, they need more and they need shorter respawns
     
  4. Meh I think they need quicker red pawning times, and do something 'bout those damn leeches! It's not everyday I'd be up for loosing like 20k honor just for shooting noobs down for leeching 'the' (not mine) cube I'm soloing. Plus to the guy that said ufe 'hog' em...well you're wrong, ufe/cube soloist, make more use of a cube than noobs. Plus they give more rps. :D

    Ever hear the saying "good things come to those that wait"? Maybe you should try to find different times to solo cubes. I've had plenty of times where I could get the whole x-6 map to myself. So maybe your problem is your timing, not that there isn't enough.
     
  6. What if he happens to be a on server time...or a global server - where there's players from all over the world?
     
  7. I am actually, in the daytime theres US playeers farming cubes as myselfs, and at nigth theres the mongolians who almsot all have 10k+ cube kills and still farm more
     
  8. Like i said you guys already got UFE ships stop being so dam stingy

    Cubes were supposed to be a group alien, but because of the insane damage wallet warriors can deal now it has stopped. If you want a chance for more cubes, I say add an uber cube to the middle of 4-5, and four boss cubes in the corners. This would give ue's a distraction. Also if you want to leech, come up to a cube before anyone is there to shoot it (if you play on a server were cubes are going 24/7, sorry) and shoot the cube, dealing as much damage as you can, until you are forced by the protegits to run away. I call this preleeching, and the cube soloing people will probably not figure out that was you for a while.
     
  10. So the original idea of cubes was a NPC that would take a team of players to destroy this was the idea. Now that players have grown so strong with new updates they are now able to solo the cubes this is where the problem lies. If they would make cubes at least 3 times stronger with 3 times the reward we would then be back to the original purpose of cubes that you will need a team of players to destroy it this is what made cubing parties fun back in the day you had to work together you had to take damage then fly away and repair while the others took damage then you would come back and fight it some more this is what made cubes fun. I would really love to see cube parties like this again
     
  11. because you are selfish

    no 3 times a ufe agis can still solo maby 10 times lol

    Noobs would make use of Cube's if foolish bullies like you didn't bully them for aliens you think you own, you seriously cry about losing honor when you yourself make the decision to shoot down your own company for such a pathetic reason as ''leeching'' which we all know obviously doesn't exist, as someone else has also pointed out. On Topic: Cubikon's are a group alien that are meant to be shared and should remain as such, I'll agree with the others that previously posted about increasing the stats on Cube's to make it an Npc that requires teamwork to kill once again.
     
  13. I wouldn't have attacked them if they didn't shoot the cube of which i'm shooting ( never said i owned them). Fair enough if they thought i needed help, but i usually tell 'em after the cube dies, then they're at it again! And just because cubikon's are group alien, it doesn't mean those who wants a challenge of soloing them perhaps, may not do so. It's like saying BK's are only soloist NPC's, and yet, you get group killing BKs?

    No-solo cubes seems to be the best solution here.

    No increase in damage, just increase their shields and hit points to the level that the time it takes for someone to kill it by themselves would not be profitable enough for anyone to want to do it. Then add a few more to the maps or decrease the spawn time a little.

    Problem solved.

  15. I think you dont understand what profitable is for us ufe

    I don't to be honest... all I am saying is that if the profit margin for soloing them was less than it would be for groups, it would get rid of a lot of the problem.
     
  17. Yes true however, it would be stupid...because that's just like being lazy. Lazy because you're piratically being rewarded higher for hardly putting any effort into cubing. Some players, playing style are going solo (they wouldnt want to get into a group), so they'd find it highly unfair for being payed less when it took them more effort to kill the cube alone.
     
  18. nope it would have a negative affect we would all sit up in palla and make it impossible for you all noobs to pala in noobs as if we dont do that partialy already and then ur only option(cubes) are usless now and you cant even kill them solo

    Alright. Not less pay then, but a group gate to replace the portals to X-6 maps. The original intent for cubikon was for a group activity anyway.

    How about just a new alien, that is IMPOSSIBLE to solo. Or if you can solo it, it would take you like, 30 minutes. You would have to have atleast 5 or more people.
