fixed an issue preventing the MRV from crashing due to overload.

If the MRV process crashes due to low resources, or if MRV is activated and then crashes due to low resources, a network disconnect command is issued that will complete in 24 hours. At that time the MRV server is defeated, and another may spawn.

when MutantR Acc Stopper process is complete you can't complete it remotely and there is no link to bounce and connect

Should now show "connect / bounce" when task complete on Acc,Dec,Stop Acc, Stop Dec on the origin now, thank you.

The "MRV status: active" on the left menu means the MRV research is completed and MRV is spawning.

This status can display hours left until research completed on the MRV like this:
"MRV status: 720h"

When the countdown completes, it switches to "active" instead of hours left.

The MRV research takes 30 days (720 hours), from when a new round starts.

The status indicates when MRV will begins to spawn, and when the MRV missions will become available.

This sounds like fun.  I just downloaded and started some new research projects, hopefully I can compete heavily within a week.

Sounds good. Reseach is important as you can see in the software list:

MutantR Accelerator    Software designed to accelerate the activation process of the mutant Revelation virus. Higher version gives more boost.    2400    92000    100    178400000

MutantR Decelerator    Software designed to decelerate the activation process of the mutant Revelation virus. Higher version gives more boost.    9600    278000    0    178400000

MutantR Acc Stopper    Attempts to stop a remote mutantR accelerator process. The version determines the odds to stop the process.    1200    46000    0    178400000

MutantR Dec Stopper    Attempts to stop a remote mutantR decelerator process. The version determines the odds to stop the process.    1200    46000    0    178400000

Once again, it is time for a major update that will revolutionize the way you do battle in HP!

The Mutant Revelation Virus (MRV) is a modified Revelation virus, designed by the Omnicron / Hakuza mega-corporations.
The purpose of the MRV is to take complete control of the mega-network by the two corporations.

True Light / Icarus have declared war on the other two factions, and are fighting against the MRV.

You are now able to take sides in this war, by being a member of one of the factions and taking the following missions:

Omnicron / Hakuza, "Protect the Mutant Rev", available at all faction servers as a global mission.
Trule Light / Icarus, "Stop the Mutant Rev", available at all faction servers as a global mission.

Five new software types are added: MRV, MRV Accelerator, MRV Decelerator, MRV Acc Stopper, MRV Dec Stopper.

MutantR Decelerator, MutantR Acc Stopper can be found on True Light repository servers.

MutantR Accelerator, MutantR Decelerator, MutantR Acc Stopper, MutantR Dec Stopper can be purchased from the software dealer.


The battle is fought by the agents of the two opposing forces on the MRV server for as long as the MRV is activating.
The MRV server is an "Unlisted server", this means it will not accept bounce connections. This would make it even more interesting, as the agents fight for control of the MRV server and it's resources.

If the MRV completes the activation, it will count as an activated Revelation virus and can be visible on Revelation Day page.
At this point the MRV can only be destroyed by overloading the MRV server. Faith will not work on MRV.
If a MRV server loses the MRV virii due to overload, it will issue a disconnect command with a 24 hour timer.

While the MRV is activating, it is vurnerable to download. If one completes the download before the activation process is finished, he can use the MRV and install it. The MRV will act as a Revelation virus, but will consume 5X times more resources, and it will be immune to Faith. The power of the MRV is 7X times greater then that of a normal Revelation Virus, making it the most destructive virus yet. An attack by a player owned MRV can be launched against an activating mega-corp MRV server and it will bring in a considerable amount of PvP points, if you have the "Stop the MRV" mission.

The rewards are balanced for each of the opposing forces. True Light / Icarus will have rewards for destroying MRV server hardware, while the Omnicron / Hakuza agents will receive great rewards for installing additional virii on the MRV server, stopping malware attacks, etc.

The rewards for the missions are the following:

Stop Mutant Rev Virus:
   - PvP points for destroying hardware via overload on the MRV server
   - AP / Standing for successfully stopping MutantR Accelerator tasks, by using the MutantR Acc Stopper (75 AP/proc)
   - HPD / Standing for successfully completing MutantR Decelerator tasks (it uses 75 AP to start! and 3 hours def time to complete. Decelerates MRV by 1 hour + version)
      -> reward depends on time declelerated, 5250 HPD / 750 Standing for each hour decelerated, (max 10 hours)

Protect Mutant Rev Virus
   - PvP points for installing virii on MRV server. (gain 110% of virii used AP => free activation +10% AP gain)
   - AP / Standing for successfully stopping remote malware attacks on MRV server by using the Remote Malware Disruptor (35 AP/proc)
   - AP / Standing for successfully stopping MutantR Decelerator tasks, by using the MutantR Dec Stopper (75 AP/proc)
   - HPD / Standing for successfully completing MutantR Accelerator tasks (it uses 75 AP to start! and 3 hours def time to complete. Accelerates MRV by 1 hour + version)
      -> reward depends on time accelerated, 5250 HPD / 750 Standing for each hour accelerated, (max 10 hours)


Great opportunities await those who are brave enough to venture into this global war.


The MRV missions are designed as a way to make each and every round interesting. The outcome of the battle of the MRVs will most likely determine who is the most skilled agent. The MRV server should be regarded as a PvP arena battleground. Only one MRV server can activate at a time, ensuring the battle takes place in one location. Your task will be to eliminate the enemy by any means. Use whatever tools you have and employ tactics you design. The MRV can be delayed indefinitely, or it can be accelerated.

The choice is yours! Doom or save the world!

MRV begins to develop only after 30 days passed since the round started.

42  HP Info Terminal / Add-on projects in progress / The mutant Revelation Vir on: May 07, 2012, 06:20:56 PM

A new type of menace has leaked from the Hakuza corporation research servers. The rumor is they have been working on a more lethal version of the Revelation virus. This virus could be an improved version that would self-activate, given enough time to study the network.

All agents will be needed to help prevent the spread of the self-activating Revelation. Faction missions will be given out on those top targets and great rewards await those who will fight.

However, things are not always as they seem. The Hakuza and Omnicron are working together to develop the self-activating Revelation, while True Light and Icarus are fighting to stop it. Agents in the Hakuza / Omnicron will have missions to accelerate the growth of Revelation, while the True Light / Icarus agents will fight to prevent the destruction of the world network.

ETA is not known on when the mutant Revelation will pop up, but it is estimated in the next two weeks.

P.S.: The mutant Revelation Vir can be delayed indefinitely preventing the round to end, if the agents are active and protecting the network. It's just a means so if the game gets too dull and players stop guarding the network, a new round starts after a while.

Virii is the term commonly used by hackers to refer to "A superset of computer software composed of computer viruses, trojans, and worms."

Is is a nonstandard word, not conforming to the language as accepted by the majority of its speakers, thus can not be found in the dictionary. It's hacker language.

44  HP Info Terminal / News & Updates / Revelation numbers / server / host on next round on: March 05, 2012, 11:31:33 AM
From technical info on Rev:

"Only ONE Revelation virus can be installed by one person. There can be more Revelation virii on the same host, with different owners."

We will change it on next round to ONE active Rev vir / server / host.
