This is fixed in v1.1, which will be coming to the live servers in just a few more days.

They do have rare drops on them. There's a reason why they're called "rare".

If lots of people generate MoVs via bundles or PvP or whatever, the market value of MoVs will drop through the floor and it won't be worth making bundles just to get MoVs.

The fact that you can earn MoVs through skill in PvP means that the cost to produce bundles will not be an effective floor on the price.

Sounds like we've got a few different things going on, so the investigation continues. The drivers we've got on our site were built as a collaboration between FLS staff (go Heidi and Rusty!) and our partners at Nvidia, which means that the release notes aren't available until they are officially released on Nvidia's site.

You've all been incredibly helpful with this situation, and we are grateful for your assistance. Please continue to communicate the issues you are seeing, good and adverse, and provide us with your DXDIAG reports so that we can investigate further.

Our Developers are actively reading this thread, the more detail you can share the better!

NVIDIA gave us their beta drivers to release to our community for those having problems with the game. The fixes they made will be rolled into their next major revision. But since this isn't an official release, they aren't putting them on their site.

There is a sticky RP story arc thread. Or, "Man Quest," if you prefer...

Yeah keep looking Mr. Bean. We still have places you lot haven't seen yet.

Let me add in here, (I thought Trinity had it in the article) Lindsey Krassin and Mat Staltman are the other two animators on the team. They make my job easy.

As reported in this thread, Flying Lab Software has been awaiting the release of the latest Nvidia drivers to solve the flashing ocean texture issue found with 8xxx cards.

We’re happy to report that the latest drivers have been released, and we’ve uploaded them to our site just for you!

The list includes English and International video drivers for Vista and XP, in both 32 and 64 bit, and you can download the one that's right for you by visiting this link.

We’d like to thank everyone for their patience while we investigated this issue. Please let us know in this thread how the latest drivers worked for you, or if you ran into any trouble as a result.

Best,

It's not a straight trade of money --> ship. You cut out the complex production chain and the labor requirements change. You get the ship for doing a mission that is intended to give you unrest for your labor & db, not unrest and a ship.
