The Collective: screenshot of the day

[Anonymous]

Have you guys seen the screenshot of the day on the MxO site today ?

It's a picture of the Collective.

First Seraosha is beta player of the week (for almost two weeks) and now this.

Makes me wonder what the deal is between the devs and the Collective.

[Anonymous]

my guess is because they are just about the bigest, or just about only mech faction

[Anonymous]

They also have Custom titles! Biohazard's looks really cool and all of The Collective members have "The Collective" in red under their names!

Did they make a deal or something???

[Tbone]

For all the "dev ass kissing" I apparently do (as quoted from Collective members), I'm certainly not getting many benefits from it!

You can edit your name on the MxO forums now, creating a new alias. The Collective have exploited it and bugged the forums by placing images in their alias area.

That exploit's about as bad as the mission bug exploit...

[Anonymous]

so you just copy and paste it? or do you type in the url of the pic?

[Anonymous]

You put the URL.

Yeah there is definatley something going on there...   Has to be some connection that someone has... Maybe Sattakan.  This is the 2nd Screen Shot of the Day that he has taken and posted in as many weeks.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the 2nd week Player of the Week  (maybe close to 3) and "Article" on Seraosha happened just after we perged the Archives of the Collective(mostly you guys, but I distracted them) in the Faction battle they asked for.  This shot comes only days after what is most likely the best organized & attended (and RP'd) party ever put on in the Matrix...

"...this pwnage brought to you in full, not part, by the Furious Angels.  We now return you to your regularly scheduled beta."

Or I'm reaching and Sattakan has an uncle on staff at WB or Lith...

I'm thinking we've already had 2 screenshots of the day and the devs are just trying to spread the love.

Sattakan seems to be submitting screenshots somehow so my guess is that he's just trying to suck up to them. I wouldn't be suprised if he's Beta Player of the Week sometime soon.... >_>

^ You make a point tho - how many of us have actually submitted SS's?
Pehaps we need a group get together so we can have a major photoshoot...

Is that the Dojo Construct they're sitting in? Or simply someplace out in International?

[Anonymous]

Honestly it kinda makes me alittle pissed that The collective is getting all this attention when they have recently been acting like assholes...I mean come on, shouldn't 'beta player of the week' be based on 'x' numebr of petitions (x meaning the number of petitions that are worth something) sent or something?  There should probably be beta gunman / spy / hacker, etc of the week...because the fact that Sattakan got BPW (beta player of the week), and now they get the whole screenshot of the day thing is kinda retarded...I just wish the constructs would start freaking working so I can continue to rock them!  =P


...oh yeah, that reminds me, since I haven't played in some time, has the construct or any of the new constructs come back up finally?

[Anonymous]

Well it was in fact Seraosha that was betal player of the week, not Sattakan but they are both memebers of the Collective so...
