So first they disabled all the protections. Now they enabled all the protections. Do they like trying to binary-search for the correct solution?

There were some folks that are supposed to be "Community managers" or something. Did anyone see them last couple of days ?

At least we have a test server where selected few do not test the update, get info and certainly don't use it for economic benefits.

Yea, let's bring in even more people with fake ad promises of PVP so they are pissed off and never try DU even if it sometime makes it to playable state.

Cool, we came to another star system to reinvent steam engine....

+ make sure your shadows are "low" and not "none"

I think you should keep it until the patch where you buy skillbook with quanta to unlock the skill.

Care to share a link ?

If you are leaving, can I have your stuff ?

Btw, the game is dead and everyone is leaving so..... Can I have your stuff guys ?

SSSShhh, they will make smoothtool usable only 3 clicks per minute for balancing issues and with 10 seconds click-cooldown due to performance issues. First iteration will disable it completely.

Just wait like a week or two. The last patch turned all the economy upside down so nothing currently makes sense. Once it stabilizes you should be good. But I would recommend to either refine + smelt or sell raw. Don't just refine. It will be easier to sell I believe (I buy raw, never check pures). Do your math once the market is stable.

You are right, NQ calls it economy balance.

Wreck stops: If you approach a wreck to 1km it instantly gains "(old speed) - 5%" so it flies away from you, you approach it again and it happens again, rinse and repeat until you can kinda make it slow. It's not immersion breaking, it's immersion eliminating. The damn thing just jumps like a frog. BOO: I am the guy that was piloting ANH monstruosa, S Core with 24 L guns during the doomsday event, firing almost non stop on that BOO golden thingy until they crashed. Our ship survived to be dismantled for parts now. There was no way for BOO to lose it as if they would get any near the destruction they could just run to the safe zone + BOO made alliance IN THEIR OWN EVENT(4 S cores with AXE tag during the event are not BOO but BOO "mini alliance" they did for the event) with one of the Russian alliances as they were scared to go alone. So much PVP elite pirates lol. (Common BOO, you will not deny it would you?) Doomsday for everyone, "safe pvp" for BOO. I will check out their graveyard and compare to mine. I didn't open mine to visitors yet, damn wrecks get slapped to one another so there is no way to kinda arrange them to look like anything meaningful but I have some cool samples. Piracy: Before the patch it was "you should know the meta", now it's "you know the meta + have to play meta + do all illogical stuff while jumping on left leg" or you don't get anything. Even if you get something it is a complete trash. The warp cell cost for ore transports is lower, they can sell 5% of their ore to bots (that are present at all planets and have higher prices now) and get enough for warp cells. Everybody and his grandma is mass producing cells already and the prices dropped lower than before the patch. Everyone just warps back and forth. PVP balance: We will be rolling L-Core with L guns now shooting everything we see. How many noobs can afford L-Cores ? Nothing else doesn't stand a chance, it will be almost instantly evaporated. Look at the HP on the medium guns and compare it to L-Guns. (Tip: Railgun M doesn't survive 1 Railgun S hit). So newbro friendly entrance to the most glitchy part of the game... Before, it was damn fun to roll on XS cores with 2 guys kiting and ace-piloting to hold yourself out of lock range. You knew you can't kill the larger ships (you will just run out of ammo) but at least you wouldn't get evaporated in seconds. You could learn to fly, get used to it etc. That's not possible now. So at the end, no piracy as everyone warps, no "fights" as it's either not worth it or heavily one-sided.

Come fight me bro! I will pend you out of operation. Operationally process your biomass and internally screw you to have an error !

Post crap on forums is one alternative...

The game is like couple of lines of code slapped together and thrown to the public to do QA and pay for. That's game industry 2020. Server tech ? It's not what I pay for, I pay for game. They have a test server for the selected few, there is like no freaking way anyone was testing anything in the last patch. If you crash your ship in space, it will take you HOURS to get that thing back. Damn thing accelerates when you approach it at 1km and then stops, you approach it again and it accelerates again. Stupid crap I call it, no one even tried to crash a ship and see how it goes. All those "testers" did is get inside info and exploit it to get ahead economically. NQ DUed all wrong to the point I couldn't even imagine what more they could DU wrong.

**XKent: Why you advertise game as PVP and don't care about PVP ? You do advertise NOW as PVP, not in 2 patches. You nerf it over and over to the point that it's impossible to PVP. DU is fake news ?**NQ-Sophon: PvP is probably going to be the biggest overhaul of next year and it will change it deeply in a super cool way, introducing a lot of tactical elements, and more roles, more options. I'm really excited to talk about it with you and we should probably to a dedicated live session on that. Rest assured that we care a LOT about PvP. Things take time however. Next year in a super cool way, yea, should I pay 21*4 = 84$ and take your word for it ? You kinda ask why someone's ad sells something that they don't have and don't care about. You get reply "it will be there". Like really, I didn't ask what it will be, I asked why they did fake advertisement intentionally forcing me to pay for product that has no advertised features at the time of the purchase. PVP as it is now is just a joke.

Wiping your ass requires a schematic for the toilet paper and "Ass wiping lvl5". Pro tip: Don't shit in vacuum in space it will float around. Probably jumping away every time you approach it to 1km.

Exactly. You fight another PVP guy and win(which doesn't even happen so much - in most cases he runs to safezone): 1) Your guns are 1/3 2) His guns and all elements are complete trash 3) There is zero point in doing so If I would like to just build something and fight equally balanced ship there are games especially for that, they usually have "To Battle" on top of the main screen... That's not what I came to the sandbox for. I get that we need safezone garden, that's the safezone triangle but why we have all those warps and safezones IN SPACE of the outer planets wtf.

It's like comparing oranges to apples. Should we compare like EVE numbers with Candy Crush numbers ? What's the point. It's a different game types with different audience. I for ex. spent 15 years in eve, 2 hours in rust didn't try candy.

Of course it sucks, it's a vacuum, there is nothing.

I sometimes wonder why would I reply nicely, try to provide solutions and then get people talking trash. Like why do I care about some noob getting lost, someone unsubbing because he tried to "do it all" and failed blaming the game etc. Like who cares, crash and burn I won't notice. Too busy figuring out how much should I sell warp beacons for.
