pathetic bonus, before this super patch CQ was almost dead, now with this generous offer ppl will have better motivation to not come.
What a difference if you will grind week or week without few hours, still not worth to go and fight for bonus.

Better they find other ways to slow ppl down than forcing them to grind month to have ship.- if they dont want ppl to quit from this game,
Together with irrational mission difficulity and destroyed completly cooperationb betwen ppl i have bad felling about this game

This subject has been debated many many times, about changing the CQs back to what they were. I agree wholeheartedly. I miss the days when you could turn up at any CQ, ALONE, land and join in. With no CQ levy, mother ships or LAGGGGG, It was great fun. We all know this. But lets face facts.
This game is now a Cash-cow for splitscreen, whatever we, the players suggest is treated with contempt.
Splitscreen know that players, and very good long-standing players too, that are leaving this game will always be replaced by new players who accept this situation, then they (the new players) will be squeezed dry of real cash.
Also, look at how many High-level players are now clanless, because there is now little reward and therefor no need being in a clan.
Then there is Draconis. now, because of the energy cap, anyone who plays this game for free has absolutely no chance of progressing. They have to buy memberships, boosters, cry protection, etc just to stand still. and when you do part with real money, what do you get in return?? Lagggg. go to a CQ? Laggg, or the game crashes completely. Try telling a GM about any problems and all you get is, send in a ticket. well why should we? Splitscreen runs this game, and charges real cash for the privalidge so it is up to them to provide a playable, non-crashing game. but they never have, and never will. So get real people, All they want is our money, and they dont care two hoots about us at all, as we are all replacable.

problem with this game is ss become to greedy, more they want to make money doing nothing.
We should play here, explore new planets, new systes, going to cq, but not, this would means for ss doing those new systems, and they only thinking about taking money doing nothing, creating imposible to finish sm, introducing rare blue etc..

Well, considering the CQs died (for me) since the first SS change I do not care how much more they ruin it. They dont seem to realise that status is not a sufficient reward... I normally die ALOT in a cq because I dont hang back... I have lost 4-5k in one CQ many times, and I will not waste that for status. 3 CQs a day stacks up to a lot of lost cryonite.

Some of these updates do seem to be shooting themselves in the foot...

Astraeus, this is a MMO... If this was a game to be played solo with no other players noone would play it. MMo's are all about interaction with other players in the game... You cant just kill mantis all the time. As there is no trading of sorts in this game, the only real interaction with players is found in Sm's and CQ... Sm's (and bp hunts) have the classic problem "I have already done this so I do not want to do it again" Meaning that unless you have a good clan to help you through, it is very hard to find Sm's fun.

So the only real "social event" is the CQ, and if the players dont like it then there is no real "fun" thing to do with other players. So all this game boils down to is grind grind and more grind. Some people enjoy grinding, but a lot of people dont. To appeal to the players there needs to be something, other than grinding, that is fun to do with other players be it PVP or co-op. This game used to have that... Not anymore.

ALL restrictions should be removed for cqs, no tech limits no clan ships no nothing, higher level players should be able to use the high level tech in whatever cq they like this is the bonus for all time and effort we have put into finding the better tech and for getting the higher level we are, this is how its been on ALL other mmos and it hasnt hurt them. This game has far far too many restrictions now it is no longer pirate galaxy but kiss and cuddle galaxy. A cq is a war and in war you use the most powerful weapons you can get not restrict the higher level player cos it might upset lower level player cos they was 1 shotted, mark my words splitscreen try cq my way and watch the cqs spring back into life, cqs need to be a free for all out and out no restriction wars, and drop the system tech restrictions on all missions as well but keep the tech and ship level limits in place, on the other hand splitscreen have to make cash i dont think they are being anythere near greedy if you compare them to the likes of DO, its becoming alot harder to play the game now if you dont spend cash but all mmos are like this i still think pirate galaxy is one of the most balanced games out there when it comes to paid/free players

After reading some posts, I've come to this conclusion,

Former CQ rewards and System must be restored in order for being in a clan to be worth it.

Engineer's skill set has to be restored so that they are able to help from outside, and overall help others.

2 major problems, I wonder if the Devs are even reading this lol
