Totally agree "High grade recycling" aint a cheap skill so a reimburse would be very welcome if it becomes uselss as Bankir pointed, same as diplo or parallel assign extensions if u ask me; imo keep it as it is now, as i doubt these fixes will help much younger players, as T1 modules are mostlly feeded by loots and artifacts and farming them for recyling or as produciton step would become pointles.

In order to ease the new producers way, i would bend more towards manufacturing assignements; the required product can be easier/cheaper to produce than the non assigned one, maby provide 1 use CT, or old one (more expensive then), where once produced the required item it would get buyed by syndicate for a "x" amount of cash or simply let the manufacturer sell it on market.

Nic aint worthless, ,. it worthless to stack 600M.
T4 items i produce for market ie. are still very expensive as big cops dont put these items on public market, why should i keep crafting them if have all nic i wish.
More researchers are needed, let market overflow with more tiered items, price drop and more use of them as intended. Mayb slow down the research for medium items, but this kernel drop killed the research for all non player-megacorps, and i would dare to say the whoole market with the internal corp orders.

Imho the 50% drop was the worst change in Perp since launch.
Could be good in Alphas only, or drop only to +/- 75%,
K´s are pretty much out of market now and selling them beacame a sin .

I agree with OP, as telodica rider ofc; most ppl complaining about topic dont drive lasers. It a metter of each one im afraid.
-I rlly wanted someone to post a thread like this one, no meant to be all bots the same, but imo Seths have a serious issue with acc consuption, without having any significant advantage over others HM.
-On top of all the LOS issue just gets bigger with each mech, being almost impossible to find the player that wont know that a simple small field of flowers can work as shield for the lasers shoot, so long range sniper lol.
-Again, telodica sensor supresor bonus for ew´s ?¿¿?

Rlly think telodicas need a boost, atm only ppl that dont read forums or have a strong laser love choose Laser bots, the rest are waiting for new weapons to see if lasers keep broken and have to respec to into pelistal. FOOTM its as bad as Useless faction.

\/\/elcome to Nia.

Imo drag ppl out of alphas,
Make them only for newb assignements and nerf yields like was done on old alphas; no sure if removing titanium form Betas had the effect that was pretended, as Alexander pointed we have undepopulated game or over productive planet.
New materials only in beta could help also, but production its alrdy quite complex so no sure if that would be best choice.
Other way, and might be the one Dev´s have choosen; its to allow Alpha Corps to make their cash and wealth there, to a point they wont fear any more the dangers of Beta and will venture there without risking all their wealth, at their own pace. And that will bring more competence over Beta territories at some point too; why? obviuslly its much more proffitable; less eforts to have same result = more time to burn some lasers.

im with reducing modules weight too;
no fun riding nude bots, nor good for esentia flow either.
more variability on fits, more versatile bots, more use for modules, more use for fitting extensions; and some real utility to mk2 extra slots.

We could tallk long about parties and drinks;
Catching up its impossible; always its.
But what this game system offers, its the possibility to eventually have the same extensions that another agent that started long time before you; more than enough imo.
Ofc no from day one, and never will have the same amount of EP or nic, or wealth than another person that played same way as you more time, but you can play more efficientlly or intensivelly than older players and beating them in the field you wish; no from day one again (that would rather be insta-gratification more than balance).
All players had to wait a week or two to ride the mech of their choice.
What i, and surelly the rest of us has noticed, its the imposibility to new players to do many things at game; no rare to see newcomers happy after subscribing with no real chances to play untill they got navigation ie to lvl 8, this its rlly bad as they will have to tune down their hype and pray that it will still be there next week when can actually start enjoying the game.
I will make a suggestion here, make somekind of a EP bank for newcomers, give the chance to spend all the ep from 2 o3 first months to newplayers at the begining of each payement. Only for the first 3 months ie, we dont want ppl buying 1 year subscription to be over from day one.

The one i agree the most, and happilly its the ability to see others factorys windows; from own and coprplayers its ok, very useful.
Spicy minery no ty, advanced minery its not the same as mining in a roughlly stable Temis and alrdy quite atention demanding as pointed before.
More harvesting sure, iirc there was a new plant incoming too. What it will be used for?

Edit: oh oh ,. i forgot cause i was at work, one thing i would rlly like its the hability to change the place of the diferent lines in the factory window and arrange them as i like better ,. , ty

Hi ,. ill post my experiences to see if can help to any,
Played solo since launch and have fighter and industrial acount. On my Fighter character i dont  have more than 15days online and i would say 80% of kernels i have eated where hunted by my fighter and not buyed, means i spended time hunting kernels but has not been my main activity at all.
I focused on red kernels as i wanted t4 light weapons, i would say i focused and started to understand kenels mechanic 2 months after launch and getting T3 was pretty easy and progressive; T4 had a problem wich its the imposibility to find good spawns on Alpha islands; playing solo does not mean you hate other players or have antisocial feelings, at that point any solo player has made somekind of relations with rest of players and corps; i used mines to buy a pass to farm those kernels i wanted in Beta. Still, the ammount of kernels i had to eat was huge, so i think it was a fair time sink.
Since then, the drop kernel rate has decreased 50% and now i think its way more difficult to a lone player to complete any t4 module, i have showed my unconformity with that meassure in many threads (imbalance with those who completed with half the effort, and kernel market death).
Althou, the research system its nice for me , i think its ok that its random as makes progression harder but also more rewarding as you might be getting some modules you didnt wanted particulary but these might be usefull for you too in the future.
With the implementation of briochit making T4 crafting became even more hard, so u also have to provide yourself with enough of it to keep with produciton of T4 modules for the market. Also when i buyed my 1st t4 ligh laser they costed me 3M each, now im producing and selling them for arround 900K, so new corps and solo players can afford these pretty easilly, as it should be.

that would stop identifying you as Nexus buffer, so i cant agree srry.
