Total agree. A rough calculation tells me : the game is NOT fun anymore. So why should I pay for it ? These game mechanics would be ok (and expected) for a free to play game. But here I am paying real money. And what do I get ? I was used to bring home 100 to 200 kilo liters of ore PER DAY. What NQ gives me now is a fraction of that. They hinder my progress. They slow me down. This is the opposite of fun. Who is doing game design at NQ ? You want players in your game ? Then motivate them. I can not see motivation here. Its the 0.23 desaster happening again.
 
Some detailed problems :
- demeter will cut me off T3/T4/T5 supply. I would be forced to do PvP asteroid mining to have access.
- Scans are listing T2 but it is by far to rare. I have detailed maps on the old ore distribution around my base. Demeter is practically removing T2 from the surface. It is quite rare in only a few spots.
- Ore yield is simply off by a factor of 10 AT LEAST. who on earth designed that ? Any stupid guy doing surface mining is faster by several mangitudes ...
 

To begin with, I must admit, that the building part and the flying around part of this game is super fun and extremely addictive.
The hunt for high value ore ( not T1 ) can be fun. For a while.
 
And then you start to ask yourself : "why ?"
 
And after a while you realize, there is no reason to play this game.
You spend hundreds of hours to mine your ore, to build your base, to marvel at your latest constructions ....
... and then you look around and see : nothing. nobody. 
And when you try to evaluate, WHY you need to mine that meganode, the only conclusion is, fear.
Fear, that sombody else might take it away from you.
You have to be first, or its gone.
That is the driving force in this game.
 
And honestly I hate that.
 
I have decided, that this game is not good for me. because of that. In eve online I can go on holidays, and rest assured, those belts
will be fresh and juicy whenever I log back in to continue my gameplay.
 
Same in World of Warcraft. I can stop my progression whenever I want, log out, have a good rest and sleep well, and continue my
gameplay happily some days later.
 
Not this game. this game destroys real life.
Because its main gameplay is driven by this instinct, that one looses stuff when NOT playing.
 
And of course I simply miss content. I honestly expected to find a better eve online here.
I was looking foreward to build cannons and shoot everything thats moving in space.
Now guess what, nothing is moving in space.
I did not realize when I subbed, that the devs clearly ruled out NPC combat. ever.
Not my game. sorry. I am a mission runner. 
 
Again, not my game.
 
 
Well, and the bugs. Sure, its a beta. I have been watching what the devs are doing during the last 4 months. I installed some logic gates on a dedicate wall with some buttons. And after every patch I tried the buttons. And after every patch, those super simple logic gates still failed. For 4 months. And we are talking about a super stupid XOR gate. Every day I was fighting my way through the silly login crashes. And I was wondering : " If they can not fix a single XOR, how on earth are they supposed to EVER fix that complicated crash when the game engine is starting " ?  
 
In other words, I lost hope, that this game could turn into something that I like. 
Thats why my sub is running out.
 
Bring content, and I will have a look again. And no, nobody can haz my stuff.

Same here. The mining tutorial let me fall into an underground sea. very funny.
And now all the construction tutorials have no floor anymore ? If I enter them, I am falling into various strange places.
I was playing in windowed mode with shadows completely disabled. Maybe that caused it ?
How do I get the floors back ?
