  1. So the ref bot spawns are broken. instead of spawning as soon as they die, we have to wait a good 6 minuites or more to get a spawn. Why is this happening on east 1? I have heard reports of the ref bots spawning like they usually do on Global EU and Global America. Cmon DO i have waited all year for ref bots and now this is happening...literally impossible to make uri when you cant get a nice stack and shoot down in a group.
     
  2. yes the spawn time was changed for more balance in the game people in the past would get billions of credits a night, like the cubes the pay good rewards. keep in mind the noob players need a chance too.
     
  3. has nothing to do with noob players. noob players would benefit the same as the ubers if it spawned as fast as it died.
     
  4. East 2 server also... almost no Refree spawning.
    I was so happy 2 hear about the Refree came back... now... I don't care.
     
  5. exactly. im trying to play for free cuz the game sucks now...when they mess with out uri like this it makes me wanna quit.
     
  6. Anytime folks rely on a type of event or NPC for farming and abuse it, they nerf it. It's the DO way. Plus your point about noobs benefitting. Not really, many strong players push noobs off the NPCs they target. Go watch an x-6 map some night and see how many cubes the noobs get shot off of. Or how the Demaner event was nothing more than UFE candy. Noobs were hunted off the Demaner. You either have to put up with things like this or go find something else more to your liking. I've been around awhile and I don't expect much from the game, the developers or its players. I do my thing and deal with the nonsense.

    Well perhaps the reason people are so competitive about URI earns is because bigpoint forces a strong and brutal competition to go on between players where only very few can earn good uri if they kill everyone else.
    On my server I had to kill everyone off the parasite boss for about 5 minutes straight until no one came back and I could finish my quest. It was unfortunate for all the noobs, but that is how the event was designed. So hate the game, not the player.

    I thought referee bots could only be killed by CBO? Why would anyone waste ammo (thus uridium)?

    If done solo by an UFE they give a nice profit, the ones in x-6 / x-7 give 10k uri and in x-8 they give 12k but only take about 4k-ish worth of ammo to kill. They also give something like 5mil EP per ref bot.

    Never knew that :O
     
  11. Really people, you should pay more attention. Referee bots respawn only if you kill certain bot in some different map on the server. So to be exact, there can NOT be Referee bot in every map at the same time. If you want them to spawn in uppers, someone (or You) need to kill them in lowers. Same goes vice versa. (Although it doesn't need to be specifically in lowers. It could be in some enemy upper map. But you got my point there.) They don't have respawn time at all.
    Hope that cleared things out.

  12. 1 round of cbo costs 5 uridium. And you're saying that it needs about 4k ammo to kill it. that's 20k uridium. so how can you make profit? even with rebate and premium you can't make profit.

    Was meant to be 4k uri worth of ammo since I was talking about the amount of uri that the ref bots give just before that.
     
  14. oh yea ''4k worth of ammo'' not 4k ammo, sorry then.
     
  15. Hi,

    What we noticed on US East 1 ...

    The Rep Spawning changed in that the companies have to work to together.

    If you destroy the one in 1-8 then a new one will spawn in 2-8 and/or 3-8. For the Rep Bot to re-spawn in 1-8 then the ones in 2-8 and 3-8 have to be destroyed first. The same applies to X-7, X-6, X-5, etc.

    We didn't make a ton of uri as normal but did great on the Experience and Honor.

    It was actually entertaining.
