Hahahaa when i remember i was thinking of coming back into the game, after i saw the version on the PTR.
SS was afraid to improve the game too much so they rolled back to the self-destruction mode...
I just have no words...

wait I think here is some misunderstanding. We are "increasing" the Value(size/amount of cryonite) for every cryonite drop in the game. On top of that draconis gets an additional bonus.The Droprate stays the same as before. This should help people to get more cryonite when grinding as the current live version.
Why does some people still think we are not listening or doing you some harm with the updates?

I think the issues is that a rare in Sol cost just under 20k and a rare in Draconis cost around 80k. The ships are much more expensive as well. Someone added up, that if you do all the story missions in Draconis you make about 85k cry. That is far to low.Highway said:
This game has changed from being fun to a grinding game. In case you are unaware, people are tired of grinding all the time. I think most players accept there is some grinding involved but it has gotten much worse in Draconis.

I think it's a global problem including many points:
- Draconis prices (it's about 400% more expensive than sol)
- Conquests fully stopped (players want pvp fun)
- Also loosing cryo by level not by ship (sometimes was fun going to low system conquests)
- New steering system did not like us.
- Blueprint droprate was to low on draconis (and the patch applied makes slower to get the full blueprint), we only wanted the droprate was increased a llitle.
- And now the amount of cryonite droped on lower system is low.
I think there's more points but those are the main point for most players to leave the game, many players post topics about these points, and talked with GM's, and SplitScreen goes ahead inventing new things instead of going back to what players want. I know there's an invest on new development but SplitScrreen must see what's the result of going always ahead and not discarding some change/invests = many players are tired of this things and finally leave the game.
PD. Sry if I didn't write something right, but I'm not english.

Too right mate, it was fun until it became ''grind 6 hours a day for a month''...
It's not strange that people leave. When Sirius comes out and it's still like this... 2 million for a fully fitted standard ship? With 60 cry a drop?
Hello Highway. I think the confusion is from the originally qouted post.Highway said:
The above states that the cryonite values were far too high. Either Sayyadin meant to say that the drop value of Cryonite was far too low, or that the Cryonite cost of equipment was far too high.
The proposed changes should mean less grinding time than is required right now. People may still think it's too much but that's another thread.
There's no misunderstanding...
We were originally told that the value of each drop was going up by 75% globally and an additional 50% in Draconis. When we heard that the new intention is to scale that back to 35% globally and an additional 15% in Draconis we were disappointed.
