Dosn`t look bad.

And what are you going to spend those conquest tokens on?

[Mercykiller]

What's a good way to earn money at a lower level? It seems to take a while to get enough money to buy stuff.

[Suicide Requiem]

I don't know what to buy for mine Conquest Tokens.
Ether Deconstructor or Vulture Vision or just wait 10 levels and buy Shatter Bomb.
What'cha think?

That dude sounds like an asshole.

[Mercykiller]

Is he SystemGS? Also, if I buy the full game, do more items unlock? Because it seems as though there aren't many lower level items.

[SystemGS]

Frankly, I'm not on all the time because I'm working on end of the schoolyear projects and exams. As for Guniv, I treat him like a two year old because he doesn't understand personal boundaries, doesn't respect my choices, and doesn't follow orders. It's frustrating when you have a little kid PMing you once you get onto Steam, once you get in-game, and every minute after that at the same interval. This is daily, not to mention. After a while, it begins to annoy you. If I'm not allowed to vent frustration, then I can't call myself human. Guniv, if you're going to continue to be retarded about just about everything, then be prepared for criticism to fly your way.

Now then, to address agency matters. Seeing as Guniv has ragequit, I can re-structure the agency without someone having a bitchfit. I'll be kicking all the empty members that we have, seeing as they're just useless numbers that never log on. That chops down on our agency numbers by about one-half. With that done, we're going to move over to an oligarchical rule with three generals (myself aside) coming into play to help me with coordination. My nominations are for CaptainLucchini, Artillery, Gregis, and Chiron. I'd like to maintain a leader in each class, paralleled in the order listed (robotics, assault, medic and recon). This would allow for easy class training, and a well-generated listing of who can accomplish what and how. This way, I can filter down to the fine grains of the agency, and know everyone via a leader. In my head, the system works out. In application, we will see.

We can move forward with training plans, as I want to see everyone progress up to thirty or past, just so we stand a chance with strike forces in AvA ops. Those will be weekly, most likely Fridays, led by either me or one of the commanders. If we fill up the agency with active members, I'll promote some trustworthy members to strike force commanders.

In short, I want to see this community flourish, not falter. Guniv, I hold nothing against you, and I certainly am not biased because of age, but the maturity level (i.e. "LOL GUIES OMG OM GOMG GET ON 4 AVAAAAAA LMAO") just isn't there yet. I can't respect someone who second-guesses me every five minutes and goes ahead on things without my permission. I was proud when you brought in members, but not when those members were extremely low-levels and all inactive. I didn't argue when you found us an agency to do AvA with, but they aren't even active in AvA. I have no qualms with you, and if you'd like to rejoin as a basic member, the hand is outstretched. But, no more whining about what I've done, because it's useless in the scope of things. Sure, you've brought the agency to what it is. But, the question I pose is this: what is it? It's a ship with imaginary members filling its many rooms, in league with two other ships, one in the same situation as ours. It needs order and reason, not just to be thrashed about like a child's toy.

And so these are my plans, lain out for all of you to view. If you want to nominate anyone, that's all fair and well, too. I'll evaluate them as well, though. They need to be knowledgeable, and I'm fairly sure that these current nominees know their stuff, and more.

have fun losing 2/3 of your members [/quote]
So you just proved that most of the people you invited were empty members

[editline]08:07PM[/editline]

also i love how you post system's tweets as proof to something bad. he tweets what he thinks, and i'm sure you do the same.

[Teh_Cheese]

[QUOTE=Guniv;22595208]i don't really tweet much
and i'm proving that i get no respect whatsoever
empty members are to be expected, i recruited on 1.3 release day, and i looked for people without an agency and invited them
plus you're just his friend i'm pretty sure you don't play[/QUOTE]

While I do admit I'm system's friend, I do other reasons for being in this thread, I do want to try this game out since I've seen system playing it somewhat often.

[SystemGS]

Guniv, at the heart of all this, you're mad over a video game and my lack of respect for an immature and irrational child.

You've proven two things today. You can't handle criticism, and you still can't respect boundaries. You crossed it by posting those chat logs, which is in fact private. Congratulations, you've won your internet crusade, Pope Guniv the Second. You've stalked me to unnatural limits, attempted to and failed to usurp power, and made yourself look like a general idiot. How does it feel to sit atop the throne of idiocy? Does it feel all that great?

[Mercykiller]

I'll probably looking to join the agency when I buy the game. Which, hopefully, should be sometime soon. I have, so far, a level 11 Recon and a level 11 Robotics. I like the play of the Robotics a tiny bit more, but will probably play them both equally. Right now I'm on the trial too, so I can only get them to level 15.

[SystemGS]

No, because you've all ready posted it, the boundary is broken. You've gone through my Twitter, even searched your name under my postings to find yourself. That's just plain creepy, mate. You look like "and idiot" because you're still an immature and irrational child, even irascible at times, especially when you're the subject. (I'm feeling the I words today.)

I feel bad for the next guy who has to deal with this.

[editline]11:51PM[/editline]

DRAMA UP IN THE GLOBaL AGENDA THREAD

[Mercykiller]

I don't see why it bothers you this much, Guniv. Not trying to be rude, but people do say how they feel all the time on Twitter. It's what it's for. Listen to this and be calm: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qi99oDALtRU&feature=related[/url]

[SystemGS]

I'm sorry, but I just can't even take this argument seriously anymore.

AND SO THE BITCHY LEADER OF FACEPUNCH AGENCY AND KING BABY OF NODRAW AGENCY PARTED WAYS, AS IT IS WRITTEN IN THE ANNALS OF HISTORY.

[4RT1LL3RY]

You guys need to chill the fuck out. May I recommend some classic Unreal Tournament or Painkiller, both are great stress relievers; maybe do some Serious Sam.

I'm currently up to level 27 with my assault, we need to get together some good groups for farming high security. Double tank assaults with power station, medic station, and forcefield robo made for some impressive runs through high security; got in 8 runs in an hour.

What assault equipment that you get with conquest tokens are worth it? I think I want the impact hammer, but what is its special ability; power steal?

[kattolil]

Getting started with this shit again. Any recommendations?

[ZapDing]

[QUOTE=kattolil;22597201]Getting started with this shit again. Any recommendations?[/QUOTE]

Don't join the Facepunch agency.

[SystemGS]

[QUOTE=kattolil;22597201]Getting started with this shit again. Any recommendations?[/QUOTE]

As ZapDing has said, don't join anything related to Facepunch.

I think we should learn from our mistakes, as well as EVE Online's mistakes, and say that there is no Facepunch agency.

[Mercykiller]

Stop with the whiny bullshit and talk about the game.

[SystemGS]

Working on leveling my 16 medic up to 30. I need opinions on what to take with me on high secs. Bio-feedback, or the level thirteen healing device that's name escapes me?

Also working on a recon, what do you guys use for offhands? I've stayed relatively inside the boundaries of robotics, and not much else up until now, but I've decided to work on mostly all of my classes.

[Suicide Requiem]

[QUOTE=SystemGS;22615872]Also working on a recon, what do you guys use for offhands?[/QUOTE]

I'm lvl 32 Recon, i use almost every offhand, the setup totally depends on gamemode and goals.
What do you do most? PvE, PvP?

[editline]10:06PM[/editline]

For PvE i suggest
Ballista
Sprint Stealth

Biotics
EMP Bomb or Decay
Ranged Stim or Visual Scanner

one more thing DO NOT play meleecon, they work just as well as poison medic (i.e. they doesn't work at all.)

[SystemGS]

I'm doing mostly PvE for now with the recon. I've got to level a bit more, though. Once I hit thirty with the medic and recon I'll go into PvP, but I want to have more options for what I'm fighting with.

[Suicide Requiem]

FYI Recons almost NEVER used in AvA, if you want to participate in AvA better train other character.

The set-up i wrote earlier is pretty much perfect for PvE. I just forgot to mention that you'd want to spec Marksman skilltree, ALL of it and then pick some things from Balanced.

I love my Epic [ddrddd] Ballista 1250 damage per shot WITHOUT any buffs :smug:

[editline]10:47PM[/editline]

I kill most guys in PvP in 2 shots.

[SystemGS]

Yeah, with most AvA ops I never really brought recons, only one to two to bacon hunt. I've heard about the epic Ballista with full damage mods, and I was like "HOLY SHIT". That and the shatter bomb would make for a fun combo.

I'll train up those two classes, but my main is a level 37 robo, so I've got alternatives if I need to do swap characters. Thanks for the tips, man.

[DeandreT]

Auction House crashes me a bit.
PvE makes shitloads of money really fast.

[editline]04:05PM[/editline]

Any agencies recruiting should add me, my name ingame is DeandreT

Auction house crashed me again in the last 10 minutes.

It would be nice if they send Recon to hunt [b]Bacon[/b] i'd be happy.

Shatter Bomb is instakill on everything FYI.

okay okay okay whoa
What happened to "restructuring the agency" and shit? We have at least enough FPers to field an AvA team, and we can probably squeeze into a decent AvA-oriented alliance. All I'm saying is don't give up just because your second-in-command quit.

lets make this shit work

Ignore the dArma in this thread, if you want, join FP agency you've got nothing to lose.

Is there a way to fix the auction house crashing?

That's the best I've got for now, as I've never really experienced crashing with GA.

On another note, I've got to think about what to do with the agency. I know Guniv quit, and that's not what has me down, it's just that we have no goals right now. I've been taking time to draw out plans for us, and I'd like to reform under a new name. Facepunchers are great guys to play with, but labeling ourselves as such just isn't as fun. SomethingAwful has Goon for their alliance name, and for an alliance, we could definitely do FP, but as for the agency itself, I'd like to change the name and re-organize as my other plans had said. My nominees are still up there for the four captains, but you can nominate yourself and I'll evaluate you. A lot of you have a ton of potential as future AvA leaders, because you want to participate.

In short, we'll find a new name, re-organize with less empty members, and sort ourselves out of this hungover phase.

[editline]08:35PM[/editline]

WE ARE MAKING THIS HAPPeN

[editline]08:54PM[/editline]

All right, so the members that are in the Facepunch GA community group on Steam, I'll be adding you on Steam either later tonight or tomorrow (depends on how much cramming I have to do for finals). After that, we can discuss GA shit in the chat or in-game, such as the new name, what we want to do, and leader nominations. I'll be setting us off with good materials early on, and about 60 or 70K credits for what we'll need to gear up with. We can also designate crafters (I'm only into rares with weapons and half-way through uncommons in armor) based on skill levels, so we can have high-tiered weapons and supplies of repair kits for that stuff. Tax will be set at 20%, no bitching. We'll need to gather money if we want to go into AvA seriously, because you guys need to be equipped with epic weapons and epic weapons mods, not to mention armor. With that squared away, we can train you guys up to high enough levels (30 is sufficient, but higher is [i]always[/i] better). Agency colors will still remain red and white, though. I just needed a little bit to organize thoughts on what to do, and here it is. So, we'll need to elect four new officers, hopefully based on your class (i.e. one medic, one assault, one recon, one robotics) to help organize with me. Nominate yourself and show that you're trustworthy, and you'll be set. Once we've secured our base members, we can start recruiting, but only active members. There'll be a period of seven days for each new member who joins, and that's the "testing phase". We're not elite, we just don't want deserters. So that's it. There's my plan for re-structuring. You can rip it to shreds or say it's great, either way I'm open to suggestions and criticisms to help make the community better.
