I run missions for a number of agents and the last few days it seems like they are not makeing offers at anything like thier normal rate. Normally I recieve a offer at least once a day, then either accept or refuse the offer and run another mission from the agent to reset the system. Now occasionally it can go a little longer say a two days, but last few days I have several agents that have not given me any offers. I am just currious if anyone else has experienced this also or if I am just haveing a bad run of randomness, lol.

I can't confirm this. I left an empire agent behind at 290k lp or so and he made me 3 offers (which I accepted) in the last 4-5 days, although the first took a few days to appear.

72 hours between offers because CCP, in ther infinate idiocy, overreacted to the player outcry over offer spam (when agents sent an offer every day).
Instead if implementing an ability to ASK for an offer once every 24 hours they decided that you can run 1 mission every three days if you're trying to stay within a particular offer range.

Well thank heavens for that. It'd ruin any conceivable sense of immersion if you could just go to your agent and TELL him you wanted him to make you a special, unpredictable offer. ________________________________________________

will encourage some dispersal as players use several agents and with the new offer "shop" feature and corp LP total potential being brought in in kali this seems like a good move

maybe they want to return implants to their former price range. a pity they do it this way, instead of returning the old, "useless" offers. by the way I think the offers frequency was increased after offers nerf, perhaps now it returns to pre-nerf state.

The only thing it does to me is cause me to log off because I can't play. So then I do something else. Eventually I'll just stop logging back in. Next I'll see this credit card charge for a game I no longer play and look into canceling it.
I'll never understand game mechanics that encourage you not to play.

simply add a few more agents into youre regular mission op (its aimed to get some dispersal of mission runners away from the main hubs) lower offers make em use different agents = anti lag measure

I'v tried to run mission from diffrent agents, still no offer from my main agent. Yes, I'v gone back and run a mission for him... I know this is how you did it before, but have they changed it?

Edited by: Leandro Salazar on 14/08/2006 22:31:56 The 'incubation time' for agent offers (time between trigger and actual offer) can be anything from 1 minute to 5 days. So just be patient. --------- ZOMG my sig was concordokkened! Link removed due to bad language on remote site. -wystler

As of today I've exceeded 7 days with no offers.
Previously I was getting them every 2-3 days at worst. ------------ Ezra Cornell pe0n, Xanadu Corporation |
