They have just switched over to brand new server infrastructure, if you want to nerd out the info can be found here Tranquility Tech III - EVE Community They had some initial problems with the switch over, then someone forgot :oops: to change the scheduled downtime back to normal on the database server so it shut down early the next day. Seems to be better now. What are you doing in eve since you resubbed?

I found the beta a bit boring, and the PVP was pretty trash, i found most of it boiled down to ganks or *person A hiding behind something till heal was off cool-down, then person B would do the same* so it ended up being an effective stand still. I personally got more enjoyment out of the limited number of PVE missions, but even then it just felt too bullet spongy. I understand why they have to make it that way, and at the end of the day its a MMO so needs some RNG/grind, but i really don't see any reason to slap the Tom Clancy label on the game, most of those games are known for realism and short time-to-kill. I'm loving R6:siege so that might be souring my opinion slightly.

We had a machine in the heating plant get hit by a zero-day, lucky it was just the machine the workers use for taking logs and browsing the web, the logs got encrypted but are backed up. Judging by the time it was hit it was during the night shift so not sure if it was a booby trapped website or a email attachment. There are a couple of antivirus programs out there now that detect when files are being encrypted and block it, most are still optional programs run alongside the main antivirus, I noticed they block network writes as well unless folders are added to an exception list which totally defeats the point for servers.

No idea on consoles, I doubt it though.

Its pretty much purely multiplayer, aside from 10 or so "situation" training missions and a player(s) vs AI terrorist hunt.

Unlocked Frost this week (no season pass) really enjoying her play style. Both her weapons are nice and you can set up some great traps with her welcome mats.

Sins of a solar empire and Total annihilation/Supreme commander were my go to multiplayer strategy games. I can remember playing sins with a friend vs several AI, at the end of the game we had both of our fleets orbiting a sun, i went AFK and my friend decided to declare war and attack, has been planning it for the past hour. I came back to the computer to find his fleet destroyed and mine still intact. Since then, he built balanced fleets like mine rather than spamming the missile frigates.

Been playing HELLDIVERS. Its on sale at the moment (steam for PC), from the makers of Magika and its fun to play co-op.

I like what they have done with the season pass for this game. None season pass people still get the extra maps and operators just a week later/increased cost which i can live with. I hate it when games split the player base with extra buy in maps and game modes.

I play on PC, US matchmaker though. Enjoying it a lot, only rank 21 at the moment.

I put together a quick lumber mill, was planning to do a house to go alongside it. Was the first thing that i thought of when you mentioned skyrim theme. I had an idea for a crane for a quarry.

Logged in for the first time in a while yesterday, portal room should be fixed, need to set it up to auto fill on on ender pearls but didn't have much time.

Feel free to grab stuff from my place as well, I have tons of stuff. If you cant access my AE network i might set up a chest outside full of some stuff that people might want.

Yeah i haven't been on in a while, ill try log in tonight and fix it, at a guess the chunk loader will need ender pearls. You found the cleaver in the chest by the wither spawner with 100% beheading right?

Still playing here, brawling with bling fit machariels in lowsec.

Solar power!!!!... oh wait I wonder if trains can go through mystcraft portals like nether portals...

Portal sentry bots in all the places!

Not dipperd into any magic other than botania yet, Might give thaumcraft another bash, I'm sure a lot has changed since the last time i used it. Found 10 cicadas in my base last night, I made sure to redistribute them so that everyone can share the love! Botania's ring of far reach is helpful for being particularity evil!

Good tip with the dolly, they give you slowness if they are in your inventory with something in, but if you pop them inside a bag/ender pouch then you don't get the slowness.

Yeah but if you put an energy cell down and switched its output to 50 (for example) rf/t then that's all it would take, the spawner would still work just at a slower rate. My enderman powered spawner is just working on a trickle charge from solar power, it has a more powerful solar panel on it than leadstone but i don't need it going off at max speed. Depending on what you are spawning there might be a better way of doing it, if its somthing with a spawn cage they can be picked up with diamond dollies.

If you put an energy cell down you can change its output amount in the GUI, or just use lower tier fluxduct that cant transmit as much power.

i think they are 29) an inside job? 36) stand in alphabetical order? 48) Lemons 51) tuna fish? guessing as "two na fish" 53)Tennessee / tennis?

Science, Gun nut, salvaging and local leader are pretty important perks to aim for.
