Awarness Bug

Hi there,

don't know if it's really a bug, if not, sorry for that, and can close this thread.

This is what i got :

55 merits on awarness (10/10)

the Education PSY2680 Attention and Awareness

i ve been active for 6+ hours the last 2 days (doing only 2 nerves crimes to be "more" active, using all energy, using lsd for more energy to use), using the forum, visiting lots of city shops, HoF and so on...

When i checked my city map : no items in 2 days since new systems.

I have compared with a friends, which is pretty new, have not the education PSY2680 Attention and Awareness, and have 0 merits in awarness. He have found 2 items the first days and 2 the second day.

Maybe i'm unlucky as Hell, but i have used money to hunt merits to put 55 of them in awarness for city finds (old system was not worth it for me too, finding my daily kittie plushie or hammers, but now it's the past^^) but the new system is even worst. I don't want to "use" points to reset merits, and i want to know if its a bug OR if i'm unlucky as hell

One more time, if it's not the right place for this thread, sorry, just close/delete it

Have a nice day.



EDIT :

setup :

Base awarness(100%) + 55 merits put in awarness -> 10/10 (+100% of base) + Edu course (+10% of base) = 210%

the bonus are +100% and +10% from base or stack with previous values, if stacked, in which order the maths are done ?(marit first then edu then compagny special or other order ?) for my exemple i have assume that they are all % of base awarness

220% awarness Datas :

Day 1 : 0 finds

Day 2 : 0 finds

Day 3 : 0 finds

There has been some changes to awarness.

They know; they mentioned 'old system', 'new systems'

I don't think there's any bug with Awareness though. I mean, it has only been 2-days. Not even 2 weeks, hardly time to start worrying.

so, how people with only the "base" awarness (without any merits, nor edu, nor compagny specials) can found 2 items per days (i don't speak about quality, since this is random) and people that have invest money, time, merits in educations, huntings merits tu upgrade awarness can't find one items...seems awarness is broken, or at least, it needs some boost / rework / double check in order to see if there is not some sort of mistake in a formula or something...(because, and it's not the main theme of this thread, now that awarness is not involved in Dump seacrhes, now it works fine fo rme, before, when awarness involved, i found only soap on ropes, butnow, i find $50k+ items in dump, that's why i think something is wrong with awarness)

When you're using a one-time use book, now *is* the time to worry :P

I didn't get anything either. 2 merits in awareness only tho, and I keep traveling all day.

Can anyone confirm if with the new system, traveling counts as "activity"? Or is it like before?

Any activity on ANY page should count towards activity. So, you click on to travel, that should count towards activity. You click on events whilst travelling should count towards activity too.

So activity isn't a factor anymore, just log into Torn 1 time before midnight?

Do people traveling have the same chance as people who stay in Torn? Lot of unanswered questions about this update...

OK

so i will gather my personnal Datas over a month, and compare with my friend ones on the same period, he is ok to not spend merit on awarness during that period, will update the thread when more datas gathered.



Thank you

yes

Praise the lord!!!

So you are giving me less incentive to be active? That's shall we say, an interesting business .

Thought you were trying to make the game fair.
Whats fair about someone who plays 2 min a day getting the same as someone who play 5 hrs a day?

I agree, but how does traveling play into the new update? Do travelers get the same opportunity/awareness as people who stay in the city all day?

Yes, he's said that just logging in once per day is enough. From there the only advantage you can gain is increasing your Awareness.
