Then there's matchmaking where I guess it's looking but then on the bottom right says there an invite or whatever but no matter what button I push nothing happens even the control pad  there are some big bugs with the mission. when i was doing russian consulate, on the staircase area one of the guys in my party kept glitching out of the map and ending up in the safehouse. then he couldnt get back to us cuz the door was closed. the solution was for all of us to kill ourselves so we all respawn together at the checkpoint again.
and going rogue is just not worth it, especially when im trying to grind to dz 50. went rogue twice accidentally and managed to get away with it.

In the napalm mission I managed to get inside the pillar, I had to fast travel out and do the mission again.
Damn it :/ From that time I received random DC but nothing else.

Yesterday was my first bug in the last mission. I went to open a medipack inside a bathroom and i got stuck between the sink and the medipack. I shot the sink out but still couldn't get out, so i just killed myself with nades and respawned.
As said the best bet to fixing bugs is to kill yourself and force a checkpoint respawn. Or if you don't mind restarting the mission, fast travel out.

Then begins the farming of Phoenix Credits :D I'm not quite sure how to get Phoenix Credits since I've only played for one day. You need to be lvl 30 before you can start collecting them?

But if a headshot hits for 150k+ and you don't get more than 80k health/40%dmg reduction, you die with 1 shot in pvp no matter if you have 80k or 10k life, am I missing something here? (not that anybody would pvp) When I got hit from SMG during beta I was in some form of a stun mode, don't know if you can outheal long enough during that so the enemy has to reload. Not convinced Stamina is worth it. With high level gear, you should have ~55-60% damage reduction from armor, not 40%. Think there is some further -dmg modifier in pvp too although its hard to check since yeah, nobody does pvp. edit: speaking of which, any of you guys bored of carebearing forever and want to shoot some people? I've had no luck getting ANYONE to actually team up with for some rogue shenanigans ever 
It's boring, yeah.. But on the other hand, i don't want to lose hours of grind for some shenanigans that i don't get anything out of.
The system at the moment is rather dumb, but they already announced that they rework the penalties (as in, less penalty).
Love that they won't touch shotgunners in challenge missions, the only thing next to the fatties that are threatening.
In regards to PvP armor, there must be some flat reduction somewhere - summit1g headshot-crits in PvE for around 400k+ with his M1, in PvP there's players he hits for 20k. It's weird and i haven't figured it out yet, really.
I'm not quite sure how to get Phoenix Credits since I've only played for one day. You need to be lvl 30 before you can start collecting them?
Yes. You get them through different means. Every boss gives around 2-5 Phoenix Credits on "Hard", every completed challenge mode dungeon gives you 30 (+ a HE item), with daily missions (two for "hard" difficulty and one for "challenge") giving you 20 extra + crafting mats.
You also don't really need big groups to farm, two of the challenge mode missions (lexington and tunnel) can be two-manned rather easy with decent gear (one damage dealer around 100k dps, 40k HP and one supporter with around 30k tech and as much dps as he can afford - easy to get with no HE items).

Ya as mini states, you get them at 30. For doing daily missions or daily challenge mode mission which is a mission on hard mode. Other than that u can "farm" them in the Dark Zone area killing "elite mobs" that are located on the map as points of interest or something.

Just got to level 30 last night. Debating if this game is actually worth putting any more time into with its end game content. How has everyone's post 30 experience been so far? Been pretty much soloing everything as all my friends are console players.

You won't solo challenge mode.
I enjoy the game. Then again, i'm not playing by myself, so i can't really argue there. Challenge modes are fun, even with pugs (and ya, i tried). Incursions are close to be released (you can already see it on the map), etc - nobody can decide for you "if it's worth". That's pretty much up to you.

Yes, that would work. To my defense, it was almost 1 AM and I was tired and my energy level was depleted. My intelligence is usually depleted at work(programming makes you dumb after work )
But, yeah, grrrrrrrr ><

trust me, if i got stuck halfway through a challenge mode mission run, i would try absolutely everything before restarting

I am only level 14, but if anyone would like to group up with me my steam and uplay are Kenthros. I have a mic and i also have my own teamspeak.

Is there any benefit in going to the dark zone before hitting lvl 30 from the main content? I spent a lot of time there yesterday and I felt like it was fun, but I didn't really get anything useful.

Not really, no. There's more PvP though, because you don't lose as much.

I really hope Ubisoft introduces a in game customization option to change hairstyles etc. Too lazy to start over again even though I am only level 10.

The DZ is separate in terms of XP progression, so it certainly does not hurt to go there before you are 30. I wouldn't farm heavily for gear though because gear level has a very big impact compared to gear quality.
And yes the PvP is more open and frequent in lower brackets. On level 30 you see either 3-4 man groups that are very coordinated or you see small groups just get some loot and then escape the rogue status but it is far less frequent because people realized that farming is way faster in terms of DZXP and item progression.

Not sure what you're trying to explain to me, considering that i do understand how the game works.
I said it's not worth going DZ before hitting level 30. You said "it doesn't hurt". No it doesn't hurt, but it's a waste of time. It's only "worth" if you want to play some low level PvP before hitting 30.
You don't see PvP on level 30 (well, maybe in DZ01/02, can't tell because i "farm" DZ06). I have yet to be killed once (by players) in high level DZ zones. And people don't PvP because they realize "it's faster in terms of XP to grind", they realized that losing 2 levels (and more) is retarded for going rogue. Massive specifically announced already that they're reworking the penalty system while saying in the same sentence that they won't nerf challengemode shotgunners because of whining. Which means they acknowledge that it's retarded.
edit: deacon.frost, by chance, you work with c++?

Nope, an obscure old code Edit> And not that common coding language(Open Edge/Progress, not sure what name they are using now)
