I just reinstalled Jobmem today. It certainly speeds things up once you can get the job you want to spawn. Even without it, leveling is so fast it's somewhat depressing. I've already maxed all the frames on my 2nd account and I did a /played and it came up at just over 20 days. A lot of that was loving around with other Goons dancing at printers and poo poo so it wasn't all grinding. Most of it was also before the 10% per frame boost was put in. I'm about to roll my 3rd account and speed run it just to see how fast I can max all the frames again.

Back before I caught a bad case of the warframes I was working on it, but never saw any signs it would be possible. There was some weirdness that suggested you could copy jobs from someone else through some combination of squading, server hopping with leavezone, and jobmem. Never got around to investigating so it may have just been a fluke.

Squad, Give Leadership, Leave Squad to duplicate the Job, but I don't think the job board itself dubbed it over so Jobmem was unable to chain it.

Just FYI, on today's Firefall Live it was announced that the 1.3 patch is on schedule for a Tuesday release. This will have the new Amazon Warzone map and the new Reputation system. POI vouchers will be converted to Reputation next patch. Instead of spending vouchers on items, your reputation level unlocks items for sale for crystite. This makes it so you don't have to grind vouchers for your other battleframes.

I wonder how retroactive that would be. Some areas have items I've farmed vouchers for because they have some really good stuff.

They said that any vouchers you have will be converted to 100 reputation points for that faction. The cap works out to about 2400 vouchers. Some of us have waaaaay more than that for some (cough)Nutretic(cough) places. Be sure to convert those into items before Tuesday or they're lost for good.

Have they talked about how you will get reputation? Will it still just be limited to job terminals? I always thought it was dumb that you didn't get vouchers by doing world missions and other events in the zone around the outpost.

For what it's worth, if anyone else likes to do the jobs in Lab 16 for those nice blue level 33 cores, the Corporate Espionage mission is pretty easy. Talk to Office Space guy, go interact with a box, E another box and fight off 5-6 super easy drones, return. I find it a lot easier than the bandits for the little girl mission from Sagan. Those bandits must have gotten buffed or something. I don't remember them doing so much damage.

Somebody finally made a Melder replacement called Meldii http://forums.firefall.com/community/threads/tool-meldii-an-addon-updater-and-melder-replacement.6119821/ I'll update my links in the OP. Since Meldii is open source, I'll also look into enhancing it to support upgrades for our custom addons like GoonTransit and JobMem.

No, the vouchers will automatically be converted to reputation when you first log in after the 1.3 patch. However, there is a reputation cap. Any reputation you earn above that cap is wasted. He is saying to use your excessive vouchers to buy items before it gets wasted in the conversion. Keep about 30 vouchers and spend anything above it.

There are some weird protections against repeating jobs while in a squad. Jonus and I have tried to get it to work, but we can't. Well, we got it to work only once by accident. We never figured out how we did it. It says it is repeating the job when it sends the request to the server. If the server ignores the request, there ain't anything you can do about it.

A new version of Meldii was pushed today that has my implementation of a direct download provider. This means that GoonTransit and JobMem can now be tracked and updated by Meldii! JobMem 1.2 - http://tinyurl.com/goonjobmem * Added a /startjob command that lets you start a job by ID number. GoonTransit 1.14 - http://tinyurl.com/goontransit * The Zone Explorer will auto-open the first entry whenever it is opened. If you install those latest versions using Meldii, it will be able to track updates for you. Just open Meldii, click the Addon Library button, and move those files into your library. They will appear in the Meldii addon list. Just click the checkmark by the name and it will be installed on your computer. If any of them receive an update in the future, Meldii will be able to tell and will give you the option to download it. Also, the 1.3 patch will be out today. I'll make another post for the patch notes when they arrive. Here is a spoiler of what's to come:
Reicere posted:That's weird, grouped jobs were the primary way I tested the original version. It's some sort of protection against groups doing stuff like "Arm and a Bootleg".

 Firefall 1.3 patch http://www.firefall.com/firefall-update-13-war-in-the-amazon-notes Highlights:
Broken Peninsula is going to be phased out. They have disabled vouchers and rewards and events. At least you can use your LGV now. =/ Thread about BP: http://forums.firefall.com/community/threads/1-3s-changes-to-broken-peninsula.6138321/ Arena PvP design goals: http://forums.firefall.com/community/threads/the-future-of-firefall-pvp.6138521/ They have also added a system where you get assist credits for support actions, so if you just run around and heal people, you can get 'tagged' for encounters. Also, Arsenal's Combat Shotgun accuracy was nerfed. People are most likely still going to put up 16 million damage against Kana. And the Bastion Fortify bug was fixed, so Bastions can no longer hit Fortify and then melt everything with a Tesla Rifle. Advanced Decoy should be killable now, and the bug where the Rhino's alt-fire would stop doing damage has finally been fixed. They have also opened up the P-1 LGV blueprint. Everybody can craft it at level 1 now. Finally, they have buffed the positive weapon modules, after the nerf caused by switching to additive multiplication. Magazine size modules buffed 50% and splash damage modules get an extra 5%. Unfortunately, accuracy modules got nerfed to 75% of what they used to be. Doesn't matter, Radiant Beam shotguns are still the best weapon in the game. Ability force, potency, and range modules all got buffed 50%. Duration and AoE modules got a weighted boost, with low end modules getting a bigger bonus. Nalin fucked around with this message at 01:40 on Feb 11, 2015 |

Well the changes seem okay so far and the new zone certainly is something to do but on the other hand them just killing another zone shows that they still have no idea what the gently caress. I will check out the poo poo they put out but frankly I don't see this game going anywhere.

Honestly, I'm surprised it took this long to start phasing out Broken Penis. Their grand vision of an open world PVP area where armies would fight over resources and dominance sounded great but turned into a zone of base swapping filled with bugged content. You can lead a horse to water... So far I've been having a pretty good time in the warzone. The new mobs are interesting and quite a bit harder than the stuff I run into in DT. I've also been enjoying the content that I missed out during my absence. I haven't done Miru nearly as much as I'd like. The drops there are neat. Heh, last night I was grouping with my kids and doing some stuff in Coral Forest. They begged to play daddy's game so much I made them their own accounts. My 6 year old daughter is not half bad. She can shoot ok but has a hard time following waypoints. My 4 year old son requires constant guidance. He's also very "Ooh, shiney!" and I frequently turn around to find that he's stopped following me and is happily shooting at a nautilus or killed by a bandit. Even though he can't read or write, he somehow managed to get tagged by a pubby army named UNTCH. Low standards, I guess.

The (yet another) new guy in charge of PvP seems to be mirroring my same opinions on what would make a good Arena PvP implementation. They also have confirmed that once Arena PvP is released, they will take down Broken Peninsula and create a team to re-develop it. So BP will eventually be back in the future.

I haven't paid attention to this game in years, but one thing that gives me hope is seeing just how much has changed, and how easily the dev team decides to scrap something that doesn't work and start over. I know that probably bothers a lot of people, but most games these days do one of two things. They just copy what has worked for other games and you end up with another boring game, or they try and innovate, but they stick to their guns with flawed ideas and go down with a sinking ship. Its refreshing to see firefall truly trying to do something different, and at times it does look like they don't have any clue what they are doing, but I do kind of like their approach.

Humans are like electricity in that we will always take the path of least resistance. Broken Penis was set up so that the game required a lot of effort to do the team PVP but very little to just gently caress around and grind out xp, vouchers, and even uranium. Suddenly, you find you're flooded with Russian aimbot uranium farmers. There was, what, 5 steps to capture a base? I'm trying to think of a successful PVP game that did more than just take a bucket full of players and throw them into an arena with anything more than instructions to not let the other guys get X. X being a flag, ball, or flagpole in the open with no cover. Even those were secondary to the primary goal of making the other team die more than your own. If Broken Penis would have made it much harder to PVE and easier to PVP it would have been an amazing map.

Well the new zone is a raging success. There's about 20 Bastions camped out right at the melding wall next to the crash site. Good luck getting your quests done ever. Also the Chosen excavators don't despawn so you're stuck fighting over scrap with about 50 other people.
