I have no doubt the economy is lopsided, but I really don't think tweaking the game as is is a good idea. There is soo much they need to add... Megafactories are fine if there is a great deal of PvP/Wars. Then there would be supply AND Demand.
Personally If I can only 'specialize' in one or two things then I'm not even interested at all.. I'll just specialize in screws, put them up for sale and log off. Yippy!
I'm not even interested in PvP, only industry. Some people JUST want to kill things and that's great as long as your buying my engines ?
I ONLY want to make factories and mine, PLEASE don't limit my gameplay because there isn't enough to do in PvP yet. Once WARS pick up the economy will right itself.
