What about Solo players and this engram limit?
Solo players need to be able to learn all/more engrams because they don't have tribes to share engrams/dudties with. This has totally ruined the game now more than anything else that has been done this has ruined it for solo players

i'm solo player and i know they punish just the old players and solo players in the patch's, then i think whatever they add is the same sht, in the future the game is just for big tribes or big alliances anyways

Solo on official? Solo on unofficial? Single player?

If it's unofficial or sp you can alter the amount the of engram points you get. Official it's always been impossible to learn all engrams.

He's meaning the mindwipe tonic changes Marg. Previously you could wipe to learn engrams that you needed when playing solo, now you have to wait for a level, which may take ages, or not even be able to wipe at all.

I just make it so I earn a total of 100k engram points in single player, problem solved, no need for the mind wipe tonic. But, if he is complaining about official. Well, yeah, that sucks.

no on my own server I have 0 cost set so at each level you can learn all for that level. Now with the forced mind wipe I can only earn 1 engram even though I have multiple levels earned? total bogus I was at like level 70 got the update and have all these points to level up but I can only choose a few then no more how stupid is that? I gues I have to wait until ASM makes a fix? or is there a code for the ini to reverese this horrible idea? otherwise solo players are total screwed and mightas well leave the game

You can put how many engram points you want to earn each level if you are running your own server or playing single player. Always have been able to. And that still works.

Yes, for each level you have, you place the following in the game.ini:
OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=1000
This means that at level X, you gain that much engrams.
OF course, you have to put it in for ALL levels. So, if you have 200 levels (like me), you end up with 200 lines of OverridePlayerLevelEngramPoints=1000
XD
That I found to be less buggy and more reliable than say, making everything cost 0 engram points.

This is what I have in my single player game. It gives me all I need, but not too fast. I increased it at the end just to be safe.

I will look at those solutions but it doesnt make sense as I have the points and the engrams are not greyd out you just can't do anything with them like activate them or select them so even giving myself 1 million points at level 1 is pointless if something is locking them but if it is working for you I will try reconfig it.

Yes Forger, this will solve the egrams problem, i did that on SP and on my server, but how about if we want to change stats? This not only affect the egrams but the stats to, and like the flyer nerf, where i would love the option to change it, i would love the option to change this too, make no sense to have those restrictions on SP or my own server.
I agree they need to "balance" the game, especial for the pvp oficial server where balance is more needed, but in a game that they have allowed us to change almoast everything, they do things like this without thinking in SP or unoficial servers. Yes, maybe we will have a mod soon to allow mindwipes, but cmon, now we need a mod to everything? Changes like this need to have options to activate or deactivate.

Dont forget, even if you have the points you will need the lvl to unlock the egrams too.

Aw man you might actually have to play with other people in this game!

According to this new way you will end up at level 50 and just be able to get all the engrams at level 25 etc. I started a new char at level one you get like 5 or 6 rngrams to you know build a thatch hut but you can only clear 1 engram so you get the pick ohh now you cant build anything. so the next level reveals more of your thatch and spear etc but again you only get 1 engram so again you cant build anything. BTW some people dont want to play with a bunch of idiots like you bab who just cant keep their traps shut. I ve always been a solo i like building my own base my way etc
