As long as MP official servers are in question,absolutely; lava planets were my water and oxy farms. Rexxxus admittied that watery lava was intended in 5.x I haven't actually; which planets are those? I only travelled as far as Nex (nominally Lava planet), and it was still orange-colored water couple of days ago. Some additional feedback I know people complained about that previously,but I think breathable atmosphere on barren PvE planets (Eris,Plys) makes it too easy. With all the basic resources present, there's little incentive to explore (maybe water occasionally, but you can bring more than enough from starter worlds) The research station in Eris orbit seems bugged, it never shoots (since 6.0). It also uses very old assets and yields only small steel blocks for some reason when deconstructed. Maybe it has been fixed in 7.0, didn't have a chance to check, but the large station in Pandroa asteroid fields seems to start without fuel when it respawn, it stops shooting after first time it's destroyed. Troop transports are not working for me. The ship just hangs around the drone base (Eris) and never attacks (same back in 6.0) I feel that indestructible surface is no longer justified in Pandora system with autominers depleting deposits.
Some of my thoughts regarding current server (Official EU) It would be nice if SV warp drive allowed for jumping to at least the first PvP planet. Right now,there's little reason to bother with it and the whole feature feels very pointless and a one-trick pony; easier to leave the starter system,but that's pretty much it. No luck finding that fabled lava planet with proper lava; for example Nex is still just glowing orange water That weird research station over Eris, using old assets; still there, still ugly. Way to much hostile fauna on planets like Nex or M32. Travelling on foot or by bike is a death sentence,especially at night. Maybe weapon damage could be adjusted at least, so that enemies don't take that may bulltes to beat (alternatively, lower incoming damage). It was the same back in 6.0 but after getting glitched out of my CV and dying several times I painfully realised just how ridiculous it gets Maybe spreading the water pools on PvE planets a bit would be a good idea so that people don't build around one spot I think Erestrum meteorite drop rate on Nex is too low with more ammo using erestrum gel. I got like 1 meteorite in 10 minutes Thanks,
Thanks for the feedback! Will be considered for the next patch! (the next one should be hopefully in general quite big and overall changing few things)
Did you tweek consumption rates (food/O2) on the US server a couple weeks ago? Its is now a bit over 1 unit per second, bad enough that after a re-spawn you only have about 2 minutes to find an available O2 station before suffocating. Its now so bad that an emergency generator literally can't produce O2 fast enough to keep up with usage (at least on Merc Camp), making it worthless. Food is also got a lot worse but I hate having to drag a small o2 station around like a geriatric patient every time I go outside.
The starting planets need shorter cool downs for resource deposits and POIs. Perhaps include a timer when players MUST warp out, to avoid population density. Seriously, every day this week there's been new players complaining that they couldn't mine resources and they were right. Only option for them was to mine cobalt meteorites on Eleen.
Ressource situation on Eleen: Endless spawns of cobalt meteorites, one every ~2 minutes, and nothing else!! This is a bug, right? There are still some deposits left (but not all different kinds and some at bad spots), but anyway: the spawn rate is way too high. There's one cobalt metorite at every 1km all arround the planet. (Official Public Server EU)
Nope no bug. If u look in the planet info random asteroids is only setup as Cobalt. The others fall too but not as much. We did this so we get ppl out to explore other planets With that Eleen will be wiped every 2 week so everything will be back
Yeah, I guess I could've worded it better: What I meant as a bug is that the whole surface of the planet is littered with cobalt meteorites. Isn't there a limit, maybe there should be? (Just saw 13 meteorites drop in 2 waves in visual range, during 2 minutes... ) Btw. "basic ressource" scarcity doesn't help in getting people who already have quite a few ressources out of the system, but instead keeps new players there, because they can't find the ressources to leave, apparently (well they complain about it anyway).
There is a limit and i think the limit is pretty high or bugged. Not much will be done about it anymore since 8.0 and we have to rewrite everything for that anyway
Hello! I started the game around a week ago so i might not have enough experience to give a feedback but i will try (71 hours xD in game ) . The offline protection is broken, i understand that you can't get damage but having the turrets firing while indestructible i think is a little too much, on my server ( eu official server) Pandora and Pandora moon are taken over by just a faction who plant these kind of defenses https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd....969/BF5D5305DCC2AB27B59D32F5492DEB446296C203/ and than go offline ( i saw them 2-3 times in 4 days and for short periods ) . If you try to take them out is impossible because they have offline protection, i don't know yet if there is a building limit but i think it is and even so they have outposts all over these planets making it imposible to enjoy NPC's outposts and/or meteorites.
I hate it when that happens...same happend to me in pandora orbit... i hope this OP bug will be fixed in 8.0 maybe @RexXxuS knows
The offline protection is a story that an issue since day one. I havent seen any bug fix so far in 8 about it. Best is report it as a bug. There are building limits (the game handles a building limit what we said in the yaml how many buildings can be on one planet total) thats 255 our of my head. Next there is a limit that can be set in EAH (the tool that runs the server) idk if RexXxuS used those limits on the official server. How ever if they abuse the offline protection i will come destroy some offline protections so ppl can take stuff down. But havent seen any proof so far that they abuse the system. the OP is setup in a way that it takes a few minutes it will kick in after a player from that faction or building owner log out. u can see in the server info (multiplayer sceen) how long that timer is. Dont know it out of my head Also since with the 8.0 launch we have to rewrite whole scenario allot will change
1: I completely agree, should be more use for short range warp. Places of value should have ways to reach via short range warp, like Pandora Orbit should be accessible via short range warp from at least two directions. 2: yep 3: yep 4: I enjoy the hostile nature on both planets. It was a lot of fun learning to live on Nex. At times I was annoyed that simply stepping outside meant 3 creatures from the dark start attacking me. Being prepared for the hostile environments is what makes different planets different. I think it should stay hostile. Id like more planets to have more unique challenges just to simply survive. 5: I solved this by not living on a PvE world. But i know thats not for everyone, so I dont really have an opinion. 6: The amount of Erestrium on Nex is fine, only 2 erestrium meteors are up at a time(unless the planet was unloaded from the server, then you have to wait) Living on that planet I had more erestrium then I knew what to do with, I had a full stack of erestrium gel almost all the time. As for offline protection, I think you should only be able to offline protect ONE PRIVATE cv OR base, and it would be set like you would set Home Spawn.
Alpha 8 is out and the OFFICIAL SERVERS are down whilst the non official servers are already running it by 45 minutes. I think the official servers must be the TOP PRIORITY on starting up before fixing PRIVATE admin servers. Eleon is not making a good impression.
Hey, The Public Servers were turned off with A8.0 release. We are using the time to make some maintenance and applying the new A8.0 settings. They will be up very soon.
