</3 Lafiel, just because you have leet graphics. My settings are all maxed, and I have never seen such things. It ain't the settings.

I remember a old thread about this. It only seems to happen at OP wars. I saw them one time at Regant Fortress.

One thing bothers me... every time ppl post their screenies here I notice that they have no FPS/PING/BANDWIDTH-display on. Why not? I turn it on every time I log on.

because i usually just log my PPU for op wars and dont bother turning it on plus i crash 20 times during the war sooo... u kno...

and another thing... recently whenever i crash at an op war it takes 30 to a an hour to log back on.... just like right now at that fight.... ie ven wait 5 minutes evetrtime before login back on yet every single time i have no spells no cash no SL u no that bug

I've seen it too...

It's not just OP wars, I was just hanging around the Lab in Ind A Sec 2 when I noticed this bizarre flashing in the sky... pulsing, all kinds of colours.

But hey... have you ever seen THIS?

First time it happened, it was the cloud textures that got replaced with WB textures, and it looked like one of the battleships from Independence Day was sweeping over the MB bunker :D

My guess would be some very very pretty beam spells. Or something caused by em

Sheba
16-03-04, 04:46
Or the northern lights as they are also known here in Alaska..I have seen some pretty amazing light shows but none looked as good as the pic you have there!
Is it by chance coming from the direction of DOY?

I go to OPs all the time but I have only seen these fireworks in large OP wars. Maybe GMs are having fun with us? Fireworks to make the ownage that much sweeter.

Jules69
16-03-04, 08:26
they are the DoY's newest weapon, the teletubbie hoverbots of d00m.

or maybe its just the reflection of light when the solar particles flaring off the sun radiate and ricochet off the magnetic field of the earth and reflect light back towards the ground.

I dunno, i think DoY is up to something...sneaky robo-bastards...

Lafiel
16-03-04, 15:12
o_0 i dont think it has anything to do wit doy because its so random and i havent seen any relation to who we fight when it happens so i dono... i just think its some GMs havin fun but who knows maybe just maybe their is some bigger meaning to it but i doubt it

Meh, I know it's kinda off topic, but how do I get Neocron to display ping/fps/etc? O_o

I saw them once at MB entrance, many people were hunting pkers and other way round, quite messy, then this aurora started appearing, it did so several times, different colors.
