  1. But that makes no sense, what is the purpose of a HQ tile then? I was under the impression if you set it to HQ you get to keep those tiles even though it is inactive. There is nowhere telling you in game after so many days/weeks or months that those HQ tiles are gone, not that I could see anyway. As I say I understand other tiles being like that which are not HQ tiles, that would make sense but I thought the idea was a HQ tile was yours to keep which you need to pay for to mine on it or build on it whatever it was. I'm certainly not going to pay money forever, people take breaks from games here and there and can't afford to pay long term subscriptions. The fact you lose your HQ tile just drives me away even more and I would put money on me not being the only one.
  2. Well that is what I initially thought, HQ are protected but it seems not unfortunately. The constructs gone I could live with but not the tiles themselves as they were near water area.
  3. Sorry for late reply, yes they were near water area in land but I couldn't tell you where exactly unless I could spin the globe. Thanks for the offer, I may come back in the future sometime and start a fresh but I like near water and as you probably know they are usually first to go. Looking at your post though it seems my tiles have gone then, I know you get 2 HQ tiles, in my opinion they should be protected until you start paying on them again. I can understand other planets where they would become available again but not the HQ tiles on Alioth.
  4. That clarifies it then, thanks. I was under the impression your tiles are reserved forever. Now I know that they are gone I probably won't be back then, as far as I know there is no way to know if the tiles are still mine without paying subscription so I have to assume that they are gone.
  5. Well I think it probably is over 3 month, I left when first month ran out. How can the buildings be looted though if it is on a HQ tile? I can't remember which planet I was on or what it was called, it was the planet everyone goes to after the starter planet, maybe it was Haven? I didn't have any buildings though, maybe resources in boxes but I guess that is all gone if you can loot inactive HQ tiles, I thought they were safe.
  6. Well after reading this I hope my base is still there from when I first started. I have 2 HQ tiles that I used to pay for but ran out, I was under the impression they stay yours all the time just they go inactive. I've been waiting for the change on schematics before I came back but if my 2 HQ has gone and been taken that will be it for me, have no desire to start all over again, not when you pay a subscription for it.
  7. They finally listened to people eh, thank god for that. That's the only thing that was driving me crazy about that game. I guess I will be back when it is added then.
  8. Not played for awhile so thought I'd ask here, has placing schematics in the machines manually been changed yet? I would be willing to come back if that huge chore was changed.
  9. The question is why have they not added more things to these planets? I have no idea how many there was as I only played on launch but from the planets I have seen they are bare. Full of surface mining rocks but where is the ambition for the game? All that space and they could have added roaming npc's, robots to kill to harvest parts and more buildings to visit other than market, this list could go on. For me the game is similar to Atlas, played that at launch many years ago and had the potential to be a great pirate game then mistakes were made within dev team and everyone left the game, not many play it these days. If the game was free to play I don't think many would criticise so much as you're not paying for it along the way but to pay subscription at £10.49, quite a lot higher than other popular MMO's it is just not worth it for me at this time. I cross my fingers though and hope they pull something out of the bag and turn it around, they could have a lot more players in the game if it was going in the right direction.
  10. I had a look at how many players were actually playing on Steam 792 which was all time peak 555 within last 24hrs and as of right now 198. When I used to log on at this time that number was in the 500s. They are not making it easy for people I know that much. For a subscription game I would expect better from a dev team, it has potential but it has been going for 6yrs or so and would have expected more from the game to be honest. As many already know the schematic system killed it for me, I'm certainly not running to each machine putting them all in there. I got my email today "it is time to renew your subscription" erm I don't think so, at least not at this moment in time. I hope they fix it, I still drop by here to see if anything changes but for now my time is spent in other games.
  11. Well as a new player I have no idea what that is. People shouldn't have to add third party software or mods whatever they are, they should be in the base game itself for everyone. You would still have to go to each machine to put them in anyway unless you know of something that I don't.
  12. I agree, it seems to me from reading the forums that they don't listen to the players and want to change or try new things. I started off enjoying it and the motivation slowly ebbed away through schematics alone and I haven't even gotten into other parts of the game yet. What gets me is this game has been going for 6 years hasn't it? I dredd to think what it was like years ago because there doesn't seem to be enough in the game over the 6 years. The land is empty with only surface mining rocks. Why couldn't they have added creatures or some form of NPC to kill and harvest parts etc. Many ideas could be implemented into the game it is shocking how it has gone 6 years and in the state it is now. I may come back to it in the future, I maybe could forgive them if the game was free to play but I for one will not be spending on subscriptions every month to not enjoy it. I hope things change especially to schematics but given it has taken 6 years to get to this I won't hold my breath.
  13. I didn't take into account any alts that maybe used to do this also. People don't really pay subscriptions on multiple accounts do they? I don't think I could throw money away like that unless I was super rich. I still think it should be changed though to stop this happening, hopefully they come up with another method that is more better than it is now.
  14. Well I have gone back to Satisfactory for a fresh start until they sort things out. I started off enjoying it until I realised how many of these schematics you have to buy and put them in each machine, it is just silly. I'm not going to pay a subscription for not enjoying myself, hopefully they fix these issues relatively quickly as the game itself has potential.
  15. Yes but I'm talking surface mining and I presume you mean mining units for tier 2? I have not tried other mining units, whether you can get T2 on Alioth with them I do not know but if you are willing to surface mine Limestone and Machite is there, just not a huge amount.
