New and first time joining the forum

Hi everyone, Just wanted to introduce myself. I recently just joined this game and officially addicted   . I have been reading around the forum looking for tips but I am not quite familiar with some terms. hoping to team up with events, the events can get so addictive T_T

Welcome aboard!

Check out the wiki and the sticky topics within each section. You will be a veteran in no time flat!

Welcome to the Forum! Which terms are you struggling with?

I see trades that has like 100 ac 200ac, 100 ccs, are those the bullet packs or erks and injections? im also lost when I see Pope, ope... im still getting used to the terms

Anything w/ "AC", "PS", or "BE" refers to the resources in the game - Ammo Cans, Power Shots, Brain Eaters.

Anything w/ cc generally means the number of crystals used in building / evolving a merc (e.g. an 8/200 means 8 of the r1 mercs and 200 crystals).

POPE, OPE, and PE all refer to the evolution of the merc from a "raw" level 1 base merc (generally referred to as either r1 or e1 depending on what is the evolution cycle of the merc) to the best that a particular merc could become with maximum crystals used at each step.  These could be an 8/400 for those that require 3 evolutions (r1, r2, e3, e4), and the single evolution mercs (e1, e2) don't really have an agreed nomenclature or ontological taxonomy.  Several sticky topics above and writings in the wiki should help.

One caveat: some call a merc POPE when only 1 of it's attributes is maxed, while others only use that term for the "full tank" mercs (either 400 or 100), so be careful and ask questions when someone says OPE, or POPE.  Buyer beware.

Read, and be a noob no longer! http://fatalfrontier.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Basics

But seriously, welcome to the game and to the forum! Looking forward to getting to know you. If there is anything at all I can help out with (squad direction, trade suggestions, tips and tricks) just hit me up and let me know.

Same monikers just makes it easier - ask most everybody. That's why Zoar asks for IGN when people ask to sign up for the TFB crews. So you can be sure which ally you are connecting with for an event.

Also helps with the trading aspect too.

I don't use my real IGN on this forum because the devs are always watching, even though I'm not doing anything wrong, they could ban you for just speculating about doing something wrong.  

Way to play the "cloak & dagger card" Fresh.

Or should I say "savoire faire is everywhere" ... etc.

So even w/o 2 Bad Cats our so called "recent joined" whacked Super Raid Boss and took MVP!!! ^_^

Congrats anyway...

haha grats on the mvp!

hahaha thanks im addicted to combos know too... i dont know if any of you encountered this, for example i have a canis and beside him is a nloater or The hindrance, Canis activates his ability to save someone but at the same time can damage sponge activate to take over the damage canis will recieve? is that possible? or 2 abilities cant stack to help each other out in this situation?

I've got no idea what you're saying, but do you run 3-/4-/5-man formation ? Canis has 50% proc chance on all teammembers, not only adjacent.

basically he's asking whether 2 mercs would proc at the same time or not.. I mean I think like that.. if not, sorry.. ^_^

yeah, phar got it right. for example canis ability activates. and beside him is a bloater for example. is it possible for the bloater ability to activate on top of canis proc skill? example. canis defends a team mate and counterattacks. since lets say bloater is beside canis and bloater's skill activates the same time canis uses his ability. Are these possible in the game? instead of canis taking the damage, bloater will take it in his place? i havent experimented alot yet, but alot of you might have encountered this or not? ^_^

Sorry guys, but the logical construct won't permit a simultaneous trigger. Whichever merc is next in the sequence has their chance for their skill to trigger and I do not believe there could be a "tie" where both happen.

From coding constructs 101: If ... then, ... else always only has 1 answer, so it's the sequence that is paramount.
