On the other hand, whatever changes there might be, I fully expect people to complain nevertheless because everyone seems to have different opinions about balance.

Whatever your'e doing is working right?  I wouldn't worry about it then zoom do ur thing.

im gonna say greed was yalls downfall, i tried saying it.  What yall did to phm and ville you have no one to blame but yourselves.

Guys, i think you're forgetting the most important part to all of this.  Just because the ex-girlfriend puts on a new dress and some make-up, she's still fat and ugly.  We must realize they don't have the development team to keep people interested.  Even if they get the next content out, which is syndicate robots, what's after that?  So syn robots keep the population interested for what 2 weeks maybe a month what are you gonna do after that?  Maybe it's time to take perpetuum off the shelf collect some money come back hard core with tons of content with some in reserve.  Right now we the players are stranded in the middle of a desert and the only water(content) is a dried up well.  Time to cut the cord guys.

Chemist i applaud your fortitude, but the games dead bro.  We had good times im glad i can reflected on the past activities in the game and feel like my money was well spent. However, hanging on to perpetuum like she's a bad ex-girlfriend is damaging to you.  It's time to cut the cord.  Maybe if/when the devs begin to invest time and money into the game then maybe it would be worth revisiting.  But, i feel at this moment the devs cannot commit enough time and resources to develop content in order to retain players.  If you look at what they are working on the dev blog clearly shows that they cannot/wont work on big ticket items.  They are simply trying to tweak existing content, which is small enough for 1-2 people to handle.  This small group cannot handle the attention perpetuum requires/deserves.  Final evaluation is the game is dead unless a new team takes over or they expand the existing one.  Until that happens most people wouldn't return. That's my 2 cents.  It was fun guys see yall in other games.  Peace out.

im all for a nic sink but be freakin jesus 500M for 1 T4+? is there that much cash floating around perp?

i just want to point out that when the mission revamp went through we saw an increase in players and activity on beta.  Missions got nerfed, which negated a lot of reasons veterans were playing so they left.  PVP keeps peeps in the game, while PvE pushes players to PvP.  I do like what chemist suggested, however what the game needs is PvE content to keep casual players in the game.  PvP caters to only a small portion of the population while PvE caters to both. 
just to point out, gathering materials is a grind and should not be considered content.

I think all of you are wrong, game is fine the way it is.  The devs are truly doing a good job.

p.s. u know whats sad i feel im getting my moneys worth playing the forum game big_smile

Only reason im making a big stink of it is because of principles.  Takes a *** ton of cryo to power bases and you're not thinking about the logistics of moving liquizit and hdt from alpha to gamma.  it's around a million cryo to power 3 reactors and that's not even counting recharging the batteries.  So that's what around 25M liquizit and 50m hdt so thats 5 scarabs worth x 9 bases = 45 scarab loads of raw materials.  Can't mine on gamma since reds will be all over ur ***.  so 45 loads of materials with how many resets.  And they knew about the bug.  All im saying is make it right.  Come up with a solution.  Flushing all that work down the drain and saying "Oh well we can't do anything" means you're either incompetent, lazy or you just don't give a ***.  I hope it's not he latter, but come on how can this be ok.

update on this is because they dont' have logs  we get *** over.  Thank you dev team for your short comings and saying at the end theres nothing you can do to make it right.  Another prime example of how the dev team refuses to make things right and let the player base suffer as a result.  Keep doing what you're doing i think its working.

P.S. This was a known bug and they did nothing for months to fix this.

Yeah Ville, you're killing the game by playing it.  You're the biggest bag of *** ever, and i'll explain why.   like a *** you are trying to clean the sand out of people vajayjay's and they hate you for it.  It's funny when we were low on numbers we kept playing and now that the shoe is on the other foot our what 5-7 guys killed the game.  Face the facts Jita, people are already playing other games because guess what there are other games out there.  If that were not the case we woudln't own everything.  Facts of the matter:
1) Devs Nerfed the living *** out of missions people left so did you. 
2) Devs continue to ignore the QoL adjustments people have requested(Give goth his *** cryo). 
3)ITS way too hard for newer corporations to gain a foothold in anything cause grinding tokens is a *** waste of time with beacons sucking ***. 
4) not enough corps using the diplomatic route or doing it wrong case in point you being greedy *** only offering phm beta2 lul islands.  How's that working out for you now?     
5)  Content: there is none Missions only lasted so long. 

From someone who hasn't been playing as long as most people that frequent here i can say my interactions with the dev team is a serious cause for concern.

ok okay. My bad, i just thought maybe it would help.  Didn't know yall liked alpha that much.  close thread.

Hey Zoom, how about one central market?  Maybe trying it out for a month or two see how it goes.  Since the market is in turmoil and it's a pain in the butt to have to move lots of resources around, why not have one market.  Obviously not private storages but at least have one market that spans through all of alpha, not beta cause you know the whole having to sell plasma and stuff.  Just try some local alpha stuff for now see how it goes.

@Ville content What can i do?  PVP *** getting old blowing up the same old people.  PvE i already have 4 black bots, beacons are a complete *** waste of time 15minutes for 10k kernals *** that horse ***.  Gamma, i had an entire island to myself so im done with that.  New bro's ok... ill hang out with the new spies oh but wait no one ever lasts because of said content.  i already have a my war chest so im done mining for now.  What else is there for me?  Bottom line is devs would much rather take content away and change the game rather than help make the game better.  Case in point dev zoom would rather work on static npc spawns than something meaningful.  Idk about yall but im at the limit of my patience with this game.

I think its painfully obvious that the dev don't care about this game.  How about we have the war to end all wars so i can quit and go play another game.  I have around 75 seth mk2's and 100 mk2 arty's id like to blow up so i wouldn't have wasted all that time for nothing.  I would say lets just start brawling over saps but that's boring, as we already do this, but scheduled bang is even worse.  Any suggestions? before the trolling starts no im not gonna walk them into fleets to die or give them away.  looking for real suggestions.

P.S. idk about yall but the current state of the game is *** boring as poop.

What u talking, whatever they are doing seems to be working right?

Zoom, how does npc spawning and AI touchups going to help the game?

It helps with the PvE content, which seems to be important for a lot of players.

What do you think would help the game that we are able to do in a reasonable timeframe?

before i start im gonna assume you mean npc spawning other than missions.  1st off id fix beacons because if you've spent any time playing your own game you'd realize they're a complete and utter waste of time.  2nd i'd fix mission payout, you're literally grinding people into not wanting to play.  We all got while the getting was good.  Doing missions now i want to poke my eyes out and go play another game.  Realize the market is not healthy enough to charge the prices you want.
