Is this it?

It's called "cowardice", my young padawan :>
When crafting times were shorter, whole Wasteland was full of miniguns, rockets, armors and other stuff, that was almost worthless, no matter what it was. Now a good gun has some value, not only in caps, and that is how IMO it should look like. I mean it's Wasteland, not some Counter-Strike-Happy-Arena-Of-Gunz-And-Ammoz-Everywhere-OMG-Lulz, every bullet has certain price and should be considered if target is worth shooting.
Pozzo:
I agree with you Wichura about amount of stuff. But crafting shouldn"t be *1 click, wait 6 minutes, 1 click, wait 6 minutes, 3 clicks, wait 6 hours*. If you want that you can play to Ogame or other kind of game.
Wichura:
So what should it be?
I'm not saying that I love to sit and watch timer goes down. I might be crazy, but I'm not an idiot :> But I can't see any other way to make crafting reasonable, as cooldowns, unless we don't want "combat-armor-flood" on Wastes.
Cryofluid:
The problem is that if you allow easy crafting, you allow big amount of stuff=> nobody will care about losing stuff=> no care about nothing=> no game.
Moreover, nobody care about dying in bluesuit already=> AND this is a problem (people even travel by dying which is nonsense!)
That is not the case on TLA where you don't care about stuff BUT you do care about dying (because of THE HELL) and this is a good point.
On TLA you care about your LIFE not your STUFF.
2238 has crafting constraint, TLA has THE HELL constraint
Yet, perhaps another form of constraint could be found in crafting on 2238...
Kilgore:
So, no game before wipe? As I remember, there were no gathering/crafting cooldowns. Is stuff everything? As I stated some time ago, maybe when people stop caring about losing their shit, they will start some other activity... and I don't mean "whoaaaa PvP 24/7 everyone whoaaaa", also it's so funny that I'm telling it to a member of Orphans gang.
Solar, you often say that in few days/weeks you were able to craft a shitload of stuff and get lots of monies, while being totally safe and all.. Now please let us know: how many times were you using this stuff against other player, actually? Because I've got a feeling that you were not playing this game... you were only crafting to see how long it takes. Am I wrong? Did you fight anything other than rats scorps and dogs? Did you take any risk?
