And also @Ludvig|MindArk All the update was going good until we saw that. Its stupid to change that, the space mining activity is needed to have those crit damage and critical chance buffs because it is part of it. Nor it is not worth it to do anymorr.
Well alright, it could actually serve as a honey trap for those who are dumb enough to try and bring such accounts under scrutiny. An API was in the talks already long ago and would be very much desirable. If some features can help to profile bad actors, all the better.
I do see the need though, you don’t get a DPP advantage planet side mining and it evens those 2 professions back out. Especially considering they share the same ores/loot. I do know some have invested in gear for this exact reason though, and its a bit of a kick in the teeth. However mining is mining and hunting/pvp buffs shouldn’t count towards that, it’s just the harsh honest truth. That being said I agree that the buffs should work for space hunting and PVP.
I hate how the clientloader forces EDGE. I also hate how it links to facebook - like if you load up the game when living on arkadia. 2 things I never want to use or support in any way whatsoever.
But also, you aren’t dealing Damage planet side mining so dpp isn’t a thing. That does make space mining more like hunting buff wise. Only difference is the loot obtained and that asteroids don’t deal Damage to you.
It’s not the harsh honest truth. They made a profession that is a cross between hunting and mining. It’s hunting in how you obtain your loot, but the loot pool is a mining loot pool.
Also, it has a specific set of ores you can obtain and zero chance for enmats. Planet side mining still has many benefits space mining lacks and that is perfectly fine.
Yeah it is a combination between hunting and mining. From hunting what we got is the way to obtain the loot, from mining just the loot.
And because of that, it is necessary to have that kind of buffs, which as said its stupid to take them off.
Point to where they state it was a feature and not a bug, please. I can’t seem to find it in the statement;
(EDIT: Ok I see now you said buff, uncertain what you meant now, but below still stands either way)
mind you that feature was already priced in, and also available on the market (not gamebreaking)
well known feature of space mining for a long time now, not sure how it’s suddenly regarded as a bug. kinda dishonest to remove feature at this point
first my shop gets turned into apt, now this..
am I supposed to be on my toes about what items I own that may suddenly be affected every day…
This crushed real mining and material sinks so badly that if DPP isn’t as good and you need a slight amount more mining lasers to kill same amount of rocks then it might be a good thing to help a little with overall MU.. still tho they need to fix the space mining lootpool desperately that’s what’s doing the most damage to these professions and mining mats
Exactly. Positive sign that they removed the buff bug, means they looked into it and hopefully realized they fucked up with the state in which space mining was released initially. Hopefully more balancing to come
You can limit requests per account or unique id which most company’s do anyways.
I Would find it extremely useful to grab current market prices ores and materials I could do a lot cool applications then without the need to manually update prices of everything every time I use it.
