I don't see how you brought in Antares into this 'Argument'. The way I see you say it is the same for Gemini and Mizar.So you say:
the real old pirate galaxy is probebly antares.
Why not Gemini? Or Mizar? Those 2 haven't changed since 2009 either.
And as to, 'Rocking in Draconis' A lot of people are finding this quite hard at the moment, for example, I find it very hard to level up and to get around 550k to buy a Draconis ship fully armoured and equipped non-rared. I wonder, how long did it take you to grind that much pbhuh? Because that is an extremely load of time you seem to have been grinding for.
The main thing that I see is ruining the amount of Cryonite we can grind is this Cryonite penalty, now I can barely grind in other systems other than the system that I am in. Now this definitely needs to change in my opinion.
Secondly, comparing the prices of things in Vega, Antares, Gemini up to Draconis, the prices in Draconis are extremely high. When they said that 'Draconis is hard', I thought they meant that Missions, mantis, planets are hard, not grinding for cryonite for Draconis stuff as well!
Well, that done, back to topic, yes Pbhuh has some valid points in his posts, like this post here:
pbhuh said:
no, you want the nice stuff in pg,
but guess what?
there is never a time where everything is ok,
good luck without remat, increased energy, faster collecting,
so many things you want gone too. You can't just say, I WANT THE BEST ASPECTS OF THE GAME RIGHT NOW! BUT IGNORE THE STUFF THAT MAKES OTHER PEOPLE ENJOY IT TOO!
Thats what I am seeing you type here.
Yes true, the Resurrect, Increased energy, and faster collecting are great updates, and I cannot say "no they aren't" to that. Also yes, before someone posts a suggestion to "bring back the old PG" think about other people, "will they enjoy it or not?" Remember, on the old PG there was no remat, increased energy, or faster collecting, which would make the gameplay more difficult.
Although I also have to agree that a lot of things in 2009 were better than stuff today, for example, in my opinion, the old Pirate Mode was much better than the one today, for now, you stay in PM until you are podded and it is hard to have 1v1s without someone else coming in for the kill,
Another thing is that the loot system in my opinion isn't as good as the old, main reason is that, in the old system, you only had to find 1 blueprint, and if you find a rare, you would be proud of finding it, and would feel like you achieved something, that's why a rare blueprint is called A RARE BLUEPRINT, it is MEANT to be hard to find, no matter if you had bad luck on finding them or good luck. On the new loot system, a rare is much easier to find, and in my opinion that just ruins the name "rare blueprint", now, after you collect one, it angers you more, for example, you find a Gemini Geiger Blaster, you collect it, but then you feel sad after the "1/9" bit comes.
Now, in my opinion, the old CQ system (2009) is much better than the one after it, and the new one today, my reason is because on the old one, Anyone can join for the fun, even those who are clan less, you basically felt free once you landed on a CQ planet, no CQ ships, no nothing, just any clan fighting each other for the planet, it was great fun. The CQ system after it was bad, very bad, the CQ ships just ruined it, clan less people couldn't land on CQ planets, and basically, it just wasn't as fun as the old one. Now, the new one is better than the one before, but in my opinion, it isn't better than the old one, simply because you need a CQ ship to participate, remember this is Pirate Galaxy, I do not understand why suddenly, Pirates/Clans would want to create CQ ships to take over illegal mines.
OK, as I said, there are a few positive things that have been implemented into the game lately, like I said above, the ability to resurrect yourself was a great move, now (If you have enough Energy) you can resurrect yourself without having to go from a star base back to the planet you are on.
The higher energy capacitor was another great move. Now people can fight longer without having to reful in about 5 minutes, and if you ARE going to refill, the faster collecting makes it easier.
OK, and to the "Creating a PG server like it was in 2009", I really do not mind, it would be great, but it would take a long time.
OK, that's just about it now.
