I think the minicons should be like a weapon. You can buy and sell them and they dont get destroyed. They should have to go into a CR chamber so that way the minicons arent all powerful.

I'm sure you've noticed the minicon symbol with your chars on the registry page which means they have one powerlinked for the mission they are in. If you refresh the page or leave come back, etc and see that the icon is gone then your bot/con has been stasis locked during the mission. It's come out like this for all of mine so far. Just something that I noticed.

Nope. Use em or lose em. But you do have a little while. We are making progress but there is still a way to go before I launch the Map and reset stats.

Because on a Saturday night I'm usually so drunk I either don't care or don't remember, I prefer the latter to be honest. Besides as long as I come home alone and don't piss in the store room under the stairs (long story don't ask) then I stay in Sarah's good books :grin:

There really is no point in trying to name your minicons is there? They die so easy so why get attached. Thats why i gave mine names like this, Cannon Fodder, Wont live long, Next to go, waste of cash im gonna die, Im a replacement, and so on like that. Some of them have already died and there replacements now have there names just with a number at the end. Like Cannon Fodder #2.

I think this is the first time I have posted. I've been coming here and playing off and on for about 2 years (I think). Any ways keep up the good work OS, I can't wait to see V2.

The mini cons seem to be helping my team just enough to get some more wins. I just wish I could replace them as fast as I lose them. :sad:

Okay, so I equipped the minicon which boosts firepower, but what does that do? I tried to change my bot's weapon out for a more powerful one, and I can't. And just to double-check, I deactivated him and reactivated him, but still no change. Am I just retarded, or what?

It only boosts your firepower when in combat.

So all it'll do is boost the damage done by strafe.
