So you have increased the amount which is better but its still crazy easy to do. Four minutes for three mechs and pretty much instapops  to a reasonable gang.

I would double it again and we can feed back.

Sending the "I spent five years developing a game and all I got was this *** 100 person player base" T-shirt.

I'm wondering if people are gonna turn up in mechs are ruin this like STC did at tellisis when other people were having organised fun

when i do an intrusion scan and dock DONT KILL THE *** RESULT

damnit!

You talked about getting hold of a few CEO's and talking to them about it - in fact thats just what the devs did in beta where they asked some of us what we would need to make living on beta worthwhile.

We told them:

Better spawns of mineral than alpha that are within reach of a station making ganks possible but also possible to counter

Intrusions to be less costly which was changed too.

A reduction in the efficient of stations so that alpha 1 was the worst, alpha 2 better and beta the best

Removal of tier 3 missions and moving them beta only

The devs responded and beta ownership exploded.

Over time the devs slowly removed all the incentives that made beta worthwhile:

Ore fields vastly reduced

Having a good ore field on beta didn't matter as alpha spawns became infinitely renewable

Mining risk increased with removal of static spawn

Intrusions became a horrible CTA infested grindfest

Now you can be locked out of your home base

Then the devastating blow came - Gamma. This essentially gave you all of the original incentives to live on beta with the ability to make it very difficult for the enemy to bother you. Beta becomes worthless.

This still CAN be fixed by making beta what it was. Bring back the fixed spawns. Bring back the huge red fields. Bring back resources that can run out.

Once again there will be a REASON to live on beta.

i've stopped playing seriously some time ago and stopped playing at all quite recently. I'm scaling back to 2 accounts subbed just because I want so much for them to succeed but wont be playing them until some drastic changes come.

Has this changed now?

i would like it to not count as one of my slots if i own the station (or my corp does)

this man talks the truth
