Having bought into SC due to the way DU killed mining and implemented taxes in a game that I already pay for access; BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, um, no. Hell no. Pulling everything to Sanctuary and mothballing the whole thing. SC is infinitely better in every conceivable way than DU. Bye!

Also, good luck selling ore for any kind of measurable profit. I'm sitting on 2m units of Chromite that I mined right before the MU's dropped, and I've watch the price per unit tank by over 75% since then. Right about to dip below 100/unit. Can't pay taxes if nobody is buying ore.

So you plan to add to the thing you hate..... which is probably how most of that crap got there in the first place. Making it worse in an effort to make it better.... do you work for the Government?

I understand the process, but what I don't understand is how the game is supposed to function under those circumstances. The last time I logged in, it took me nearly an hour to dig 100m - 150m down; target depth was around 1000m which would have taken me all day. I counted 20+ "Pending Operations" just to pull one scoop of useless soil out of my way in one instance. This isn't the norm, nor can it be. It's absurd..... and it only ever started two patches ago for me so it isn't like this is an issue that has plagued me from the start, this is a recent development for me. 2-3 months of smooth sailing before this crap.

Did they fix "Pending Operation" nightmare? I'm at the end of my rope on that one, breaks the game for me if I can't mine for materials to build or space-bucks to buy....

I was ready to quit after 5 minutes/5 meters, but kept going out of a masochistic curiosity to see how long it would take to punch a 100m hole in the ground. Yes, it took me an hour. Wife is out of town, so thought I would attempt to play a game I really wanted to enjoy. I'm bitching about it because 1. it's worth bitching about a game I paid for being broken AF and 2. It's so slow at work today, I'm almost convinced Novaquark designed my workday and don't have much better to do. How about you? Do you enjoy paying for shit that doesn't work and throwing your money into the void? That's just weird.

100 meters in an hour today. I counted 22 "PENDING OPERATION" messages at one point to get 1 cycle of dirt out of my way. At this rate, it will take me 10 hours to hit my target at 1000 meters. This is unplayable broken hot garbage.

I thought PENDING OPERATION Alioth PENDING OPERATION was bad PENDING OPERATION PENDING OPERATION PENDING OPERATION. After PENDING OPERATION taking a tour of PENDING OPERATION PENDING OPERATION the system PENDING OPERATION and dropping TCU's PENDING OPERATION PENDING OPERATION PENDING OPERATION PENDING OPERATION I realized PENDING OPERATION it's sooooooo PENDING OPERATION PENDING OPERATION PENDING OPERATION PENDING OPERATION PENDING OPERATION much worse PENDING OPERATION everywhere PENDING OPERATION PENDING OPERATION else. Super PENDING OPERATION fun.

Neat update yesterday. Fixed the problem of sometimes NOT getting "Pending Operation" while I'm digging out this meganode. Pretty sweet. I'll be enjoying this process for much much longer now, which will obviously save me the hassle of finding more ore to mine. So...... hooray..... @GraXXoR, I must apologize for previously scoffing at the bitterness; I've got it all trained up now to lv5. So, a rare thing here, an internet apology. I was wrong. You were right. Womp womp

There is currently a free trail, no install needed; go into your backyard with a shovel, stick it in the dirt, repeat the words "PENDING OPERATION" about 20 times before scooping the dirt out. Repeat endlessly. Enjoy your new Spaceship game!

Glad to hear I'm not alone in this; I'll submit a ticket tonight to add to the pile.

I realize this is an old problem, and one that was apparently fixed after the last patch. Glad everyone got it sorted..... except I never had that problem UNTIL the last patch. It took me 20 minutes to dig a 100m hole the last time I logged on. Cleared cache, no change. I have looked about on forums and Reddit, and only see reference to this issue from waaaaay back, nothing current. I have my graphics settings dumbed way down, cache cleared. Nothing seems to change the painful "Pending Operation" mining Hell. Any tricks I'm missing to sort this out or am I S.O.L. ?

I had the same issue, cleared cache and everything was right as rain.... except I can't see the proposed L/hour values anymore.

Can I have your stuff? I'm only on Step 7....

.....meh, $20 is $20
