that would require talking about something.. . Obviously they don't do that here
-
All the forum posts, all the comments STILL NOTHING from NQ. HEY nq might wanna do something this isnt going under the rug like you hoped.
-
Quick throw out some patch notes about a half assed mission system, maybe they will move onto bashing that .. NOPE

Nah, the hard work is all Burble.
We just wanted to show off what he was doing so that other players could go visit, network with him, etc.
I hope you've checked out the most recent DevBlog for communications about the next patch!
(Lol I love Canadian Bacon.)Yep we saw the new devblog. Nothing on the schematic exploit on how a lucky few made billions while the other hard working players got nothing and are left digging ore to try and make money. But ill take you up on your offer and msg you. As for Burble great job man i cant even begin to understand how much time and work that had to take. Great innovation, stuff a lot of people havent even thought of. Well done.

Cant wait to see what exploits this will bring. Hey at least everyone knows you wont do anything about it.

I get what you're saying @Artaleon and frankly, a lot of the discontent here is because of what you describe. You and anyone else should be able to do your thing and play the game the way you see it without wondering if and when someone may be able to take advantage of a mistake, which can and will happen, and get away with it.
NQ not acting on this now as they did means they will not act on it again in the future and that undermines the game as a whole. That is a point some who seem to not be too bothered do not understand and that is why those that do get it are upset. It may not be the massive impact now, but what will happen next time, how will this affect the game going forward when some players can amass so much wealth without ever having to actually put in any effort. These players could pretty much sabotage the markets and frustrate the economy with the funds they are allowed to keep. Not saying they ever will, but it is NQ's responsibility to see to it that something like that would not be possible and that is what they are not doing.
Unfortunately it is also clear that NQ does not understand this themselves and that may wel be the most worrisome fact to come out of all this.
I agree NQ does not understand or care about players feedback, look on the forums people NOT ONE REPLY IN WEEKS to any forum post. Yes they say voice your opinions in forums.??? WHY they dont bother responding to more and more negative feedback, nor will they even address it.
-
So patch notes today. Still havent done the right thing NQ. Players and whole corps were waiting for you to do something. Not ONE single comment about all the hate and rage, still nothing even though players move onto other games.

You know what would really destroy what confidence I have left would be for them to roll back and delete the substantial update to one of my ships that I made while this bug was in place.
I didn't know about the bug at the time, and, since I don't do industry except for my fuel facility that I got back up the day after 0.23 dropped, I didn't benefit from it... but you want to punish me for it?
Much better that we let the beneficiaries slide. You can't prove that they knew the schematics were underpriced. You can't prove that they wouldn't have paid full price for the schematics they needed during that time if that option had been available. The players didn't do anything wrong. NQ did. (And it was an honest mistake - no punishment for NQ either lol)
A rollback is out of the question for the exact reason you stated, But where i disagree with you is that its just a bad idea to "Let the beneficiaries slide" thats also loony tunes fantasy land. NQ should have rolled back server that day if not that hour. They didint what they did was see ooops and let it slide. Thats a slap in the face of everyone here. Working hard to mine and do industry to make some cash then Boom the few that got all the schematics make billions.
-
The response is complete bullshit as i have stated in my other post. But the longer this goes on the worse it gets for many reasons. So much time has passed now that a rollback cannot happen for so many reasons, and trying to take back the schematics or money is near impossible. They have be auctioned off, sold, traded and even put into machines. But still the fact remains NQ NEEDS TO RESPOND. Ignoring this will not fix it. We will not let this go.
-
Still nothing from NQ. Afraid to deal with this NQ. People still selling off the schematics they got on the cheap for hundreds of millions. While the rest of us mine for cash because you have no other way to earn cash other than mining or reaping the rewards for your screwup. Anytime you wanna debate this im ready and willing.
-
The subject at hand is what we all focused on. But i agree they handled scoopy wrong. Update: still nothing from NQ

DU you have to do something. Why does the player who works his ass off to get 80 mill in his wallet in 2 months get blown past by some player who now sits on BILLIONS for no work. Are you saying all the hard work players do to earn money matters for nothing. Hard work doesn't get you money. Being online when DU screws up and doesn't punish it or rollback the server gets you money. If you do nothing your saying your hardwork doesn't matter and the lucky few who cashed in on this isn't a big problem. If you wipe you lose a major portion of the players. If you do nothing you will lose a portion of the players and your reputation will be again stained (3rd time btw) but if you check the logs and see who bought stuff in that timeframe you retain both. Do the right thing.

Fiffly bits, you are correct in your points i agree. how heavily was it exploited i have seen multiple screen shots with people with 112 warp beacon schematics. That's just 1 person with over 8 billion in schematics.
But my biggest point is the MOST players on here have dedicated a lot of time to build up their wealth and this EXPLOIT negates all that. And i hope a lot of people leave because of this. Why should most of us continue to work hard, when in 15mins some players raced past us and amassed great wealth just by being on at the right time to buy. That 15 minute window. So that's the problem and NQ's hope to just say no its fine we just gonna leave it. I want them to FINALLY hear this community. I hope all of the players keep the pressure on. The answer that was given is bullshit and NQ needs to do better

COMPLETE BULLSHIT lemme start there. So people that exploited this and made billions will get away with it, and the honest people get punished. I thought the COVID patch (AKA .23 patch) was a slap in the face of the players. This is a hold my beer moment and watch this slap in the face. What you just relayed to players was not good. I hope many people feel the same way and post on here, Not that you will listen or care NQ but your quickly destroying your players trust.

end game = Patch 0.23

Revelcro Lethys thank you for replying, in reading the forums and thinking about the patch it felt like large corps were better equipped to handle this massive change so i stand corrected. im kinda glad that the majority here feels that way, Hopefully that will get the attention of devs. Since they refuse to listen then the only way to get the attention of them is to hit them in the wallet and unsubscribe. My original reply did seem trollish i agree.. but i had to laugh at that statement. There are a LOT of intelligent people on the forums with some great ideas, but they might was well scream at the wall, and that is very unfortunate. I mean hell if you wanted to fix the markets short term make it so all markets on each planet can be accessed from any marketplace. Lots of ideas.

um... its in the forums - Continue playing or quit the game (after 0.23) so its right there, granted its 120 members that have voted. And im sure if your a part of a mega corp you love these changes.

HAHAAHHHHAHAAH GASP HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Best line ever "We are Open To Your Feedback On This" AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
they have been silent since this patch ... everyone told them no bad idea, and has continued to tell them after patch and so far 70% of people have siad on the poll post they will stop playing ... if you guys think they care about your feedback or listen to anyone on the forums your nuts.

First to the OP, your way of telling this was awesome .. it was clear for everyone and gave a great description of all that transpired. Secondly to NQ-Naunet, Umibozu said it best. If we spend hours or sometimes days looking for something the reward should be there when we finally get to the end of it. This wasn't just simply go to point A. This was an open world scavenger hunt for lack of a better term and i personally thought the event was an awesome idea and loved the concept of it. That being said the reward for such an endeavor should be worth the trip. I understand this is Beta (alpha) and we working out the kinks.
NQ Your lack of action regarding the schematic fiasco is disturbing
