up to you, i personally didnt pull them and didnt start pulling the rares till 46+ because the rare core amounts are garbo.

The g3 chest gives most of your rare directives, but if you’re drowning in uncommon loot you may as well pull the g4 ones too. They do occasionally give some materials as well.

yeah I was drowning in uncommon loot but it's gone now lol
also the g4 rare you have to do to upgrade your ACC 😐 (or g4 epic)

Yeah it’s different on g4 and g5 ships. But you’re not going to even unlock all those slots anytime soon in any case, most people run 3 slots on the uncommons (t4) and 4 on the rares (t7) and eventually get the rare to t9 when nearing the end of g4 for the 5th slot.

You can be Ops 39 with a faction epic inside six weeks nowadays for no more than a few hundred quid.

I actually liked She Hulk, but acknowledge it has some fairly heavy issues, mainly that a lot of her credibility came at the expense of another well established character. The biggest problem it had though is that it was a character and show for comic book readers they hadn’t brought into the Marvel Cinematic Universe and then were somehow confused when none of them turned up to watch it.

that's quite niche, although the Vemet one should've been in the test case obviously
I'm thinking about poor Alliance Tournaments or any other release that close to 100% of the population was faced with the same issue
Or the store not loading, events retrieving... Nothing niche about that
near bloom
I think a lot of those issues probably exacerbate with quantity
Also, I have sympathy with them
In years past I was a VMware administrator looking after around 15,000 VMs
near bloom
I could tell 25 servers to provision from a single template
I could have 23 working and 2 broken
serene kiln
As a developer, there are always unforeseen outcomes because different people do things in different unexpected yet available ways 😄
near bloom
Some days I’d provision 50 and they’d all work
Some days I’d provision 10 and 3 of them would refuse to update
And the remaining 7 would say they needed different updates.
🤣

I mean, no wonder you had 15,000 if you just kept firing up servers without getting rid of any 😄

leaden meadow

that's the difference isn't it
You deploy something, a small percentage breaks or fails to update or whatever
You could even have all of them not update or break once
Scopely's very consistent in breaking stuff for a majority of players on a large scale (all servers or entire region), there's the difference
near bloom
Only decommed about 50 physical servers per month, they were tedious cos we had to go in to do those and it was out of hours only after someone unplugged the wrong server.
serene kiln
Always the way, but then, you could accidentally restore the wrong server far easier 😄

I’ve done Start, Shutdown on an RDP session before too, that was fun.
Server didn’t have its remote management card plugged in so that’s three hours of my life I’ll never get back.

Nah, depends on the circumstance... one data center had a cooling failure, that went unnoticed, causing physical servers to shut down when temperature got too high... probably about 30k hosts combined physical/virtual. Nobody fired.

Up and running

It was 65 degrees (real money, 150 in American) in there and half the servers had tried and failed to do a shutdown. Most of the networking kit was cooked.
We had to take turns running in with tea towels out the kitchen to pull power.
