You can't become milionaire in a week anymore, I think I will cry.
Please stop creating new threads about the same thing, devs already said
minerals refreshing will be fixed.

You wont stop whining for some reason... That guy probably looted it from an encounter (i got 5 of them all broken) Saw you on VC a while ago and you seemed busy doing nothing. Just go with it im sure theres 30 more productive people taking shots at the issues at hand.

No way to mine, cos theres no resources, so No way to craft.
No way to get expe without a weponary cos of mining and No way to barter, so No way to get base and No way to go to TC.
No way to play cos its on only in the night time, in the thay is Crashh- Trash, so
TC left only for friends of Gms

The resources regeneration tweaking is very...'multi-knob'.

Set the amount injected each time they're regenerated/their capacity to very high, you've effectively giving away free resources.

Set the regeneration interval to higher, you're reinventing old timeouts (stare at the barrel for hours).

It's gonna take some time to tweak, and, it should work as incentive (both for players and devs) to look out for/make other ways to obtain much needed items.

But general idea - let's have it bit more scarcier that it was previous season, shall we try?

But now even gunrunner quest for rise SG and get a gun in imposible to do cos you need to be liked to get to this guard. Can't buy a gun cos you can't earn from basic crafting. Cant make a gun cos no resources in mines. Kind of loop you can't get out of... I would rather have timeouts and be able to mine then don't get any resources at all...

PS: anyone have spare 75k caps for private mine?

Or buy a private mine with 75k caps for 65k mats worth. Let me guess: the price is not fixed since pre-wipe, or am i wrong?
Oh well - start farming encounters for weps, wait to the money to respawn, buy a fresh mine, craft something else than you farmed.

So we have a encounters => money => material conversion with a little loss on money. Result: no money stashes, since it's constantly spent on mines, so no cash shortage in banks. Impressive, dear Rotators.  ;D

Minerals being respawning in private mines as well, where's that "65k" number coming from?

That's good news, Izual, thank you!

That's a estimated total price of sold alloys (made of normal ore and minerals from private mine before they're depleted) for 200caps a piece pre-wipe. It's on forums in a "private mines" thread.
My bad, i didn't mentioned it earlier on forums.

Gangs/factions can't mine single shit as well, so I don't understand your point.

"Fixed in next update" sounds delicious enough.
Title: Re: Mining
Post by: Mithguar on January 09, 2012, 04:58:09 am
I think it would be much better if ore spawn in small amount in shorter peroids(like, let's say 1 ore/min). For now it's propably farmed by few that know "respawn time". Surly it would be similiar to old cooldowns but... At least everyone would have this chance to get ore.


Middle of a night and all mines are empty...

why not just make it so i can turn all my 9mm/10mm/crap ammo into gunpowder? makes as much sense as alloys from guns. alloys and metal parts i have more then enough of and ive crafted several guns but i have no bullets and looking for them is annoying and time wasting so i just walk around with broken guns and burst everything i see.

I like that idea, convert say into 25-50% of crafting amount in powder?

This should be possible.

I have a feeling its either
a) not possible at the moment becuase they are crafted in blocks of 100 (which could be fixed), or
b) gives a small chance of returning anything if small numbers are dismantled (which would balance itself out if you dismantled lots)
