I would support this game also.

I agree that this game needs some decissions of the last 4 years reverted. On the other hand I think that also a lot decissions in the last years also drove the game to a better next level. In my opinion it is mainly a balancing issue that needs to be changed, but this means as well industrial balancing as also module balancing

On the large picture I think that it will be hard to find a base that satisfy all player. E.g I like most points of current gamma system and would hate to see the old gamma back. Others don't like gamma at all and like a game with only 6 islands as we started.

And while I was always against a wipe, I think this game is only able to recover now with a start from scratch for every player.

ADFormer this game has a lot player that have some insight on programming on a certain level. It is just the question of how many having insight in game design. And ofc if you ever tried to dig in foreign code, you learn how hard this can end. I know of larger games with decent size coder team that could not manage to find and solve some bugs that effected every player.

It costs you like 200k Epi to produce Prototype for ligth ewar, that is a bit more more than 1 argano cargo.

I think it is ok, that you are forced to either risk this argano on beta or spend a long time on alpha to get the materials.

You could e.g. collect artifacts and recycle the T0/T3- stuff for Epi materials. One sequer full of artifact stuff should be more than enough for those not willing to take the risk.

I see a far bigger problem in the fact, that game activity is far to low, to allow a new player any specialisation.

There is a bug, in which player get not always removed from terrain again.

And this can even happen on beta island.

After this patch, missile are far more better than now, and Messmer will have really no use left
As when AC energy is also getting more a problem, you will prefer Missle for all fits that need energy for more than just dps (like Rep, ECM, ...)

Just for completness for the next reading this, the container with work logs will vanish after some time and spawn no longer for this assignment. So if you miss it while beeing afk too long, you need to cancel assignment and take another.

Great news and happy new year to you as well

Do you really thing, that elimination of ingame corp market would give you access to items traded in corp to price used in corp?

That is not the case. It would just force players to relay on unconvinient ways of trade inside corp.
Anni shows with his typically sarcasm the problem.
The core of the remaining corps is somehow communistic meaning that you contribute and receive without selling to excact prices. If an officier puts something in a folder or takes something out of a folder it is fine as long as the balance is kept on log term.

Anni I would gladly sell all corp stuff for 100Bil per item.

May I point to this discussion about that topic

You could also use "refresh", as I used to do.
I have this issue several month longer than reported, but too seldom to bring this to ticket, as for me it seems to work right 9 out of 10 times.

I feel that this is more often on beta island than on alpha island, but never did statistics.

First as I wrote the yield with 2 tunings should be as before, so thats fine, the new yield is game changing.
But you cannot have maxed extensions for recycle time reduction if you are stable with that fit, or you had someone giving energy from outside.

And that is my concern, beeing not maxed at extensions allows you to use better equip so a veteran miner needs to reduce extensions or drop equipment, and I had tested with minerals I have not maxed extensions for cycle time, but still require T3 miners in order to keep stable, as T4 reduce cycle time that much, that I dry out fast.

I do not even think about fielding my T4+ MIner arms at the moment

I see a lot of interesting changes in the right direction.
But I think for miners we need solution for the fact that at this moment it is more effective to use more tunings and reduce cycle time by downgrading extensions.
That means an agent with less spend EP in mining might be the better miner than a veteran with maxed extensions.

And today you are better using miner modules not at T4 with this patch.

In fact I'm a bit mixed. Riveler mk2 with 2 indu tunings you have a bit better bonus as before patch with 5 tunings if I remember numbers right. And with 3 tunings you are definitive far better than before patch, that is fine. BUt yes, now head slot is no longer that important for miner.

And NOra harvesting requires now an external energy transfer bot, but gives double the amount than before patch, so in the end 2 bots doing same as before but require a bit less plants. I like it other will hate it.
