A Tip For the 7 Day Trial Players....

[Cease]

Base and Tower CCs don't need a Hacking cert in order for them to be hacked. You just need a REK. Which comes standard when you spawn. Hacking and Adv Hacking merely make the process of hacking a CC go faster.

So when you see a Max clear a CC and they say "We need a hacker", please hack the CC and don't just stand there staring at me... errr I mean the Max. :)

You could always just tell em in game as and when this happens.

Actually I have. Of course when you do this in a heated battle, a good minute or two has gone by and we are generally dead before they finish the hack.

Last night in Ogma, the Vanu had a hack. I cleared the CC. And at least 3 TR grunts running around with thier standard armor and suppressors ran by me in the CC. I said it local... I said it in /b and yet no one came. Me and another Max were down there for a good 5 mins and no one resecured. They ran in and stared at us for 5 seconds and then ran off. A couple even took the time to check the backbacks of the VS I killed. We of course ended up losing the base.

:rofl: that is a funny story.

Since we're talking about hacking and the 7 day trialers.....

When I was using my 7 day trial, I was driving along, and noticed a VS tower. So I go in, and was scoping out the place, when I saw this VS soldier come around the corner. We exchanged fire, and needless to say they got the end of my shot gun ;)

So I race back up to the CC, and start hacking. It was so nerve racking I still have nail imprints in my hands.

One sec away from the hack being complete, and I get it in the back by the same guy that iced me before.... -.-

I haven't used my seven-day trial yet...using the Character and Outfit searches I found my old outfit but can't find its old leader. Oh well, he was a nice guy; people you don't see anymore after beta.

I may set up my seven-day trial...what did they change on release? Everything?

I've had a lot of tower battles between me and one guy, till I got Adv hacking. I just kill them and run to the CC and I'm done with the hack before they respawn. Onetime I hacked it and they got it back, now I ALWAYS check the basement. No matter how deserted it is. Cause there's always one dirty cloaker around that has to be a pain in the ass.
