10.1: MA Delivered the Goods, but was it really Good?

Well it's October 6th, and this morning when I started up my Entropia Universe Game, There was an Update sitting on my desktop. It was the long awaited VU 10.1 and in fact after downloading it, I decided to give my Teleporter Chip a Run for it's Money.

Now the current way things run you don't have to equip your Implant on yourself, but you do have to have both Mind Essence (ME) and your Teleporter chip on you as well.

Just power up the chip, wait till it powers up, and then use the tool to select where you want to jump. Once you've picked where you want to go (It's a Little Blue dot) you hit Teleport, and Boom you're there (Of course there's always the chance you might "Miss your Target". and end up landing somewhere where you don't like it. (Like in a Mob setting)

But there's a downside to Teleporting and that is you 'burn' Mind Essence, and the way Mind Essence is in short supply, the cost is gonna kill you. (At last report, Mind Essence is now 240% over TT Value for just the Day Markup, which means a 1000 Mind Essence (with a TT Value of 10 PED) is worth 24 PED On the open market with some of these folks asking as much as 280% (28 PED). I even saw some on auction for 300%.. That's 30 PED For just 1000 Mind Essence (About 111 Jumps with the Teleporter chip I have.

But in the end Did Mindark/FPC Deliver the Goods? Well this is just the first installment of Version 10.1 and there's a lot to go for VU10.1 to be worth the effort..

So did they bring in the goods? Kind of..But there's still a lot of room for Improvement
