Every time when I enter in the mine I get around 30-40 minerals and 50-100 ores. I don't what you guys are talking about...

Exactly , what am i talking about ?

I don't understand how can someone like trokanis raise such concerns , as i understand he is not a very new player.

You must live in some forlorn timezone. At mornings I too get equal ammount of minerals as you but when day turns to evening the ammount is close to zero. The more players online, the less mats you get.

[Trokanis]

Nice Vandal.  I haven't had that luck yet.

T-888, wow personal attacks, seriously?

Anyhow...  I feel the urge to explain exactly how much I do in this game, but this isn't about who's got the better what or who knows how to do what, it's very simply about the fact that in many mines, most of the time there has been a lack of Ore.

I am sorry that my attempt to bring to the devs attention certain things about small groups in the current system has seemed to caused such distress.  In either case it is just an observation.

As Avv has said it could simply be the time in which we play, that dictates the availability of the resources.  If that is the case it is still something worth looking at.

[T-888]

The more players online, the less mats you get.

So what you think everyone who doesn't have a problem acquiring resources play when everyone is sleeping ? Absurd.

Personal attacks ? It is actually who knows what to do , you spend less time achieving more. There's a lack of ores most of the time in public mines especially those in south , you just can't accept that.

Just now went to BH mine , as always full of stuff. I could agree that if your playing at peak hours , then it might be a problem to mine resources and only MIGHT , these complaints are useless and not well put.

http://clip2net.com/s/1zCs1 i could keep mining there for some hours

[Trokanis]

Talking about how I don't know how to play and I must not know soo many things just because I have a differing experience than you, yeah those are personal attacks.  However that is as far as I'm going to go with that. 

If you would like I will provide you with the half a dozen or so Screenshots I have from the Gecko mine and BH mine showing the lovely 'The resources have been depleted' dialog from every one of the regular ore nodes, after at most 2 swings.  (Those aren't the common southern mines last I checked.)

Something you should consider is I don't 'think' anything about what others have managed.  I am just stating what several play sessions worth of effort has shown the group that I play with.  And as stated by other people in this thread we're not the only ones to encounter this. 

Perhaps you can tell us T-888 exactly how you do it, that way we can know if in fact there is some special key thing we're missing.

Different experience what ? I go to mine these resources like you , alone and without any protection mostly randomly and i always somehow manage to get out with tons of resources. Maybe your complaints are not well put , have you thought about that. You are just over exaggerating.

Wtf ? Just went to gecko mine http://clip2net.com/s/1zCyj
there were 2 completely unprotected guys in the mine mining too , i should even gone there with my sneaker killed both and profit even more.

Do you even read other posts ? I do.

Me too, even much more I must say. People just don't know where to look.

[Trokanis]

The picture you show, only has 1 metal part worth of ore from the Gecko mine.  If that is a lot of resources than I have in fact been getting a kings ransom worth of it.  The other has 10, that's not bad.  Better luck in BH than I had.

Now is I have accepted that you have managed to get resources from time to time.  Is it so hard for you to accept that others have had trouble with it?

So I have stated what I have seen, you have stated what you have seen.  The Devs most likely have their own Data gathering tools in place.  I am content to wait for their thoughts.

[Mithguar]

Even if the add more ores you won't get more. Why? Becouse in guarded mines People that mine now will just carry out more. And mines will be overflowing with ores when out of peak hours. What we have now is good. And as far as i see in this thread you are the only one with problem. Majority can get their ores so i see no reason for making changes for lazy or unlucky minority...
You can't make everyone happy... And wasteland is harsh...

[Trokanis]

Well it is obvious that you didn't read the whole thread if you say I'm the only one who has had this issue. 

I also do not expect a change to an entire game just to suit 'my' concerns.  I am merely bringing this issue to the attention of the devs.  Because it had effected more than just myself. 

Yeah the wasteland is harsh, I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere, good thing we're playing a GAME. 

[IcyMew]

I will drop my two cents here.

I've noticed that the mines are all set up very differently.

Before you go ahead and shout "Thanks captain obvious!" I actually have a point to make with this.

NCR Mine: Few Ore deposits, insane amounts of minerals.

My base near there ALWAYS has a surplus of minerals.

Klamath Mine: I'll be honest here. It has three mineral deposits. I was mining it for ores and it took me 5-10 minutes to deplete it. I had over 400 ores. Holy mother of god.

My base near there is of course, the opposite. I have so many ores there and making ammo is of course, a royal pain.

Screens or it didn't happen: I can do that.


All I have to say is...I've been here 2 weeks. If I can do it, so can you. There's stuff everywhere, you just have to explore. Don't be scared of the wastes, embrace it.

PS: I should mention that I usually grab a slave and load him down and hop to my ranger safehouse nearby. It helps tons. For those non-slavers, grab a brahmin, Modoc isn't far. Fights aren't hard to flee from and if you have enough Outdoorsman you should be semi-safe from playerkillers. It's no biggie. I always keep spare gear sets organized and ready to go. Ask my mates, I organize so OCD because I love just walking in and being able to tic off some boxes, figuratively speaking, to get what I need.

and THIS is why you can't find anything in mines.

[Lizard]

Will get me a private mine, as soon as possible. And as soon as that bug will be fixed.

[Jinxedman]

theres no problem to get resources,the metod is simple just checkin quarry some times,and high quality res are more easy to gather than normal becouse theres no pks in mines
