My team's average XP has fallen from around 250k per bot to 136k, and my entire team dropped from level 2 to 1. Boy is Fight Club gonna suck today.

This is indeed a little "ouch" since especially my three top-cons lost some big stats, butt this stuff can happen I guess and OS is doing his best

PS: HMW version II is gonna kick ass and everything is gonna be resetted anyway, so this should be no biggie :grin:

Stupid suggestion: give everybody max stats and create one big massacre before the reset :DEVIL: (this should make the XP-boost problem solved right? :P

everyone having max stats is the same as everyone having no stats there's little point in playing without the challenge of finding the most efficiant use of xp.

I like HMW I, i think it does kick ass, V2 just seems bells and whistles right now. I can't see a point of reset

I've gone frikkin emo...

Hmm, Reset to just before my serious xp whoring session. I've lost 2 levels per bot and all their equipped weapons including the ones I part-exd my soul with Rid for. Lost some of my prettier alts too.

Yikes my characters were reformatted back into their original protoforms and names. No biggie though, I've got their new names and bios on my computer.

Thanks for the energon and all the support you've done Omega, sometimes these things just happen and sure folks it hurts to go back in time two months, but hey we're all going to be going back in time in a few weeks to when we all were lvl 0.

Stats i took for AWC stats chart every monday:

X-500 Squad [AWC]
"Defence is the key to victory!!"
Commander: Conjurous
Allegiance: Autobot
Sub-faction: None
Members: 12
Energon: €2,453,425
Donations: €10,000
Total XP: 30,317,172 xp
Average XP: 2,526,431 xp
Average level: 4

What they are now:

X-500 Squad [AWC]
"Defence is the key to victory!!"
Commander: Conjurous
Allegiance: Autobot
Sub-faction: None
Members: 12
Energon: €1,871,522
Donations: €10,000
Total XP: 16,888,768 xp
Average XP: 1,407,397 xp
Average level: 4

Judging by this and looking at my bots my top one lost over 2 million and the next 6 or 7 lost from between 2 million to 1.5 million xp.

Top Bot: X-500

Stats now:

STR 9
INT 0
SPD 6
END 4
RNK 3
CRG 6

RAM 8

Thats exactly 2 million spent he was b4:

STR 10 (cost 512,000 more)
INT 0
SPD 7 (cost 512,000 more)
END 5 (cost 256,000 more)
RNK 3
CRG 7 (cost 576,000 more)

RAM 8 (alt mode was switched but avd costs same as b4 but
AVD 8 other tactic costs 765,000 more)

And he had 200,000 spare so the grand total my main bot lost was 2.8 million xp and thats not counting the rest of my team. All of which lost less than that. I did have 5 L5's, 5 L4's and 2 L3's b4, now i got no L5's, 7 L4's and 5 L3's.

Ok, I'm probably beating a dead horse here since the problems are being addressed. But I just lost who knows how much energon and xp which includes the bonus OS gave everyone not too long ago and whatever I worked for this past week. I also lost the 3 confirmed kills plus 2 from last night in the recent alt hunt Redimus started. The only good thing about it is one of my dinoscouts got back the Ultrasaurus alt mode I was going to put him back in.

Anyways, my two highest autobots had atleast 3 upgrades into level 3 and everyone else was within 1 or 2 upgrades from 3rd level.

Why am iposting this? I'm hoping someone in charge can put us back to where we were if we give an account of where their bots were at.

In all because of this my team has lost over 7 million xp with my top con going from the top of level 5 back to the top of level 4, a loss of over 1.5 million xp. In fact all of my cons have dropped a level with the exception of Megaplex. I'm also missing 2 pairs of battle blades from my armory.

I had 17.9 million xp and €460k for my team, now I have 10.5 million xp and €630k.

...
Im trying to think of a reason to stay currently.

Ive just lost everything.
400,000 energon (all 4 of my Kremzeeks have dissapeared as they were equiped) and 700,000 xp on my top 4 cons, thats half of what they had.

Can Ii at least have ONE of the Kremzeeks back seeing as thise who didnt have the equiped got to keep them, im sure i have logs that prove it too.

This bites. Sorry OS, i know you are trying, but im starting to get the impression this game is beyond repair.

:-x

[EDIT: The Kremzeek have been rescued so far, but the XP is still a major blow.]

Sorry to be pessimistic but what if you've lost the xp for the upgrades, then what. I've been reset back to a time I equipped xrays and yesterday they were weilding Black magic, dols, Kremzeek & battle Blades.

I'm not touching anything until I know more.

If you character doesnt have have the xp, like Nemesis Wheelie, i think its a long and painful wait SC, sorry fella.

You can reset and reformat to gain them back, i just did it with Dark Spark, but until Nem Wheelie has enough XP for the stats he is officially screwed.

Omega, why not just give everyone accross the game a 33% xp boost. We finish in a few weeks anyway, lets just have a laught with the place?

Luckily for me, I've only lost two common alt modes (Scrapheaper's Crab and Bigfoot's Ultrasaurus).

Though, bizarrely, Deepdive is still equipped with a Dol, despite loosing her Firepower upgrades.

the thing is psych, even if we did, I know that so many weeks we'd be back to having no experience and pretty much being in the exact same place

i thought I'd be able to suck it up and take the reset, right now i don't think i really want to anymore.

i can't even be bothered to reconfigure my prize alt.

I know Tammuz, on the large part i totally agree.

At least the Kremzeek are rescuable, but not everyone has them, so what OS now needs to do is boost everyones stats up by a hefty chunck a week or something stupid like that and let chaos reign for a bit. Put the fun back into HMW, then we wont mind if a bit crashes for a few hours as we'll just get it back again.

I have no problem being a guniepig, we just need to be warned first! :lol:



I play HMW to distract me from the infinite tedium that is my current employment, so ill always be around. I appreciate that some dont have that option and its those ill be really sorry to see go.

Way I see it, those that are in V1 til the very end should be the ones entitled to a bonus in the beginning of V2 instead those with the higest XP or length of play time. But as its never likely to be my call, all i can do is suggest.

I know, its a ball park example figure. Point is, why doesnt not just add chunck percentahge back onto the team whilst we are still running V1?

We know we cant cary it over, so lets have fun with what we have!
