amsoft2000amsoft2000 Registered Users 5,782 Posts
Good Morning and Welcome to Round #3 of the TIER 32 Battle Cycle.

Today we have "Peashooters" up for grabs, which is a good thing since CKS 6.0 is at best "unstable" with regards to PvP Battles ...
... The truly sad part is that these "prized" SNIPERS don't even pass the laugh test. :(

TOP 10: 32.5 MARIMBA MKII SNIPER - 322.12B-493.92B.
TOP 30: 32.5 TROMBONE MKII SNIPER - 268.44B-440.23B.

The VIP Event Lineup:

@7,000 GOLD: 33.5 NEBULA MKII TESLA - 805.31B-1.32T.
@5,750 GOLD: 33.0 BULLDOG MKII ASSAULT - 429.5B-773.09B.
@3,500 GOLD: 32.5 KEROSENE TESLA - 483.18B-740.88B.

@PARTS: 33.0 RAVEN MKII SNIPER - 429.5B-773.09B - "TIER 33 LR Standard Bearer".

There is a HEAVY Weapon on sale today in The Store.

31.5 MUNINN MKII HEAVY - 241.59B-369.9B - 720 GOLD **

The "magic" number for this Battle Cycle (should be) ... 386.56B.

Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!

    Good Morning Agents ...

    CKS Version 6.0 has a Preliminary Grade of D- ... a "D" would imply "passing but doubtful" ...
    ... pass The SCORPION's test regimen, it did NOT.

    As far as today's Global Event, my advice is to fight SHORT RANGE PvP ONLY. In CKS 6.0 the LR PvP opponent selection process is unstable at best and may result in repeated broken win streaks during the course of the event. "Broken" is a gross understatement and "Win Streak" is a misnomer, since reaching 7 wins in a row would be quite an achievement ...
    ... so for now and for the foreseeable future, TESLA WEAPONS are completely useless;
    ... for that, I am truly sorry. :(

    The gaming platform is unstable, the prizes are trash ... therefore I shall devote most of my remaining time on the Planet GLU documenting these so-called Mechanized Combat Units, et al.

    Afterwards, I am history ... at least that's how I'm feeling at the moment. In a word *yuck*

    I'm not even going to report on this Global Event since you would need to look at the TOP 10 to find anyone who has scored over 1,000 AP and RANK #1 has managed to score 5,000 AP (a true diehard).

    RANKS #2-#5: 2,000-3,000 AP
    RANKS #6-#11: 1,000-2000 AP

    RANK #30: 630 AP

    SCORPION: 94 AP ... and believe me even that was extremely painful. No Joy.

    This alone states the obvious ... 'nuff said.

    *** SMH ***

    New Record High Vault Take: 139.07M ... the only bright spot on an otherwise dreary experience.

    Roughly 9.5 Hours Remaining and the aggregate score of the TOP 5 is roughly 3,000 AP ...
    ... Rank #30 is @ 1,000 AP.

    Come on GLU ... you need to fix this fiasco forthwith. In case you haven't noticed, only a few diehards are going through the motions and many have stopped altogether.

    SCORPION: RANK #90, 594 AP ... Unbelievable !!!

    I also just realized that CKS 6.0 is draining my battery at an alarming rate ...
    ... when will I awaken from this nightmare?

    CKS Version 6.0's overall PvP Grade has been raised from D- to B+ ...
    ... I have resumed tracking of this "lame duck" Global Event. :cool:

    RANK #1: 12,685 AP (GIULISTALLION) ... Continues to lead the way.
    RANK #2: 7,746 AP (ROMZES1) ... The best of the rest.
    RANK #3: 5,389 AP (SH3LLSHOCK) ... Steady performer settles into third.
    RANK #4: 5,098 AP (MANUELFUENTES) ... Right there.
    RANK #5: 4,746 AP (H401) ... Last week's champ returns.
    RANK #10: 3,707 AP (HELPHOS)
    RANK #30: 2,285 AP (OUTLAWSHOOTER)
    RANK #87: 1,335 AP (SCORPION) ... Cruising along for diamonds and whatever else I can grab. :cool:.

    A new day brings us a NEW GAME. Scoring is down significantly as the "game" has slowed somewhat.

    Good OR Bad this is now the way we fight. :) I can't explain it but most of the battles being presented are Long Range in nature ... Hmmm

    Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!

    With no defenses to speak of (get that drone up to speed man); LITTLE ME said Let's Go Boss !!!

    Sorry SH3LLSHOCK of ZWIFT ... I just had to do it. :cool:

    New Record High Vault Take: 149.88M Diamonds.

    Current Rank: #49 (2,035 AP) ... after roughly 1.5 DAYS, scoring is officially declared anemic ...
    ... RANK #30 has scored 2,546 AP. Good Grief. :(

    Hopefully this will soon change once players get their "gladiator legs" beneath them.

    I can only surmise that everyone is banging their heads against a wall somewhere closing contracts ...
    ... either that or they have no more fight left in them.

    Once I hit 4,000 AP I think I'll join the "head bangers". :)

    C'est Le Vie.

    Sent in a ticket. Wonder if CC will understand what skins and specs for the prizes are?

    Just noticed, the two teslas in the VIP are skinless, too. Beware, Amazonians!

    What the Hell ... still no skins ???

    Let me know if they respond. Someone else complained about ASSAULTS and I submitted a ticket for them also ...
    ... don't remember what platform they were playing though.

    The skin is one thing nut that LID_SR_SR32_RESKIN_4 will make the weapon unusable. SMH

    Thankfully it's only a SNIPER. Just go after those diamonds. :)

    RANK #1: 15,460 AP (GIULISTALLION) ... In command.
    RANK #2: 8,846 AP (ROMZES1) ... Solid second.
    RANK #3: 7,492 AP (SH3LLSHOCK) ... Steady third.
    RANK #4: 5,996 AP (H401) ... Last week's champ is right there.
    RANK #5: 5,648 AP (WACKER1) ... Rounds out the TOP 5.
    RANK #10: 4,082 AP (HELPHOS)
    RANK #30: 2,781 AP (FREED8047)
    RANK #43: 2,335 AP (SCORPION) ... Cruising along for diamonds and whatever else I can grab. :cool:.

    I'm not entirely sure as to what's truly happening here since most should have made the adjustment to their battle tactics by now. The "Mech Heads" pack no real firepower ...
    ... they're not all that "invincible" either; just seek out the weaknesses.

    My best guess is that these players have had enough and are simply gone. :(

    Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!

    I've got an update regarding this ...

    All the GLUTONS could offer was, "Make sure you have a good Internet connection ... " ...
    ... that's it, a good Internet connection ... as was the case months ago, anything (everything) that they cannot remedy, they blame on a bad Internet connection. :(

    The more things change, the more they remain the same ...
    ... this is an unacceptable response from my POV.

    The VIP did update graphics. I only got an automated response so far. But, I'm expecting a similar meaning response.

    I've got a high end Wi-Fi router in the room next to the play room, and 50 mps up/down connection that usually measure 57-62 meg speed. But, I know what Glu means, it's always our fault - they are such masters at support/programming. And, why does everyone at Amazon have the same problem? No one knows the real name of these weapons.

    RANK #1: 19,410 AP (GIULISTALLION) ... Maintain a narrowing lead.
    RANK #2: 17,160 AP (TERMINAT3R) ... He's Baaack.
    RANK #3: 12,321 AP (DEMONOUTLAW) ... On the move.
    RANK #4: 10,796 AP (ROMZES1) ... Drops back under pressure.
    RANK #5: 7,873 AP (WACKER1) ... Right there.
    RANK #10: 5,350 AP (MARAT) ... Another All-Timer makes his presence felt (maybe just a little bit).
    RANK #30: 4,261 AP (NINJA43)
    RANK #42: 3,235 AP (SCORPION) ... Cruising along for diamonds and whatever else I can grab. :cool:.

    The TOP 2 step on the accelerator as most of the scoring continues along a depressing trend. I am projecting that RANK #30 is headed to the SILVER LEAGUE for the first time in months.

    Drone Development resumes today. :)

    Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!

    Ditto that for Google Play, but I think TRY_AGAIN already knew what the names are, at least I hope he looked up top. :)

    RANK #1: 27,346 AP (TERMINAT3R) ... The TERMINAT3R takes command; rather easily I might add.
    RANK #2: 21,875 AP (GIULISTALLION) ... Slips into second place.
    RANK #3: 12,321 AP (DEMONOUTLAW) ... Zzzz.
    RANK #4: 11,897 AP (ROMZES1) ... Holding steady.
    RANK #5: 10,210 AP (1RJ) ... Moving up.
    RANK #10: 7,360 AP (RENGER100)
    RANK #30: 4,931 AP (FREED8047)
    RANK #43: 4,121 AP (SCORPION) ... Cruising along for diamonds and whatever else I can grab. :cool:.

    The TOP 2 continue to dominate but below RANK #10; the competitive spirit isn't what it should be.

    The TERMINAT3R scored just over 45 PvP Victories per hour over the last 9 hours. **

    Next week TIER 33 should arrive and CKS 6.0 would have gone through an entire Event Cycle ...
    ... hopefully, the current Global is an isolated experience and gamesmanship will improve.

    I've just about had enough for today; it's a wrap. :)

    Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!

    RANK #30 has registered 7,593 AP.

    The SCORPION is @ RANK #55 with only 5,021 AP; yep less than 1,000 AP over the last 24 Hours.

    SCORPION FINAL RANK #55 (5,396 AP) - 35 Parts; for now, the "donut hole" has been filled in.

    SILVER LEAGUE EVENT DAY #1: Only 19 Contestants ... :(
