    Hi there, Healess Parrot! It gets better, I'm already starting to really like this new stuff and finding my way around. Character teleport between outposts seems a bit awkward I must admit. I do that A LOT so it feels off to dig up that dialog. In it's current form I get the same vibe from the testbed that I got from austerity patch. Takes time to get cash to build even a shitty old trader cutter!

    lol, I feel ya! Right now the Christian is something I can easily pass; too much excruciatingly boring cash grinding to be done. I will do it after wipe on live as I absolutely have to in order to play this game but not sure if I'll find the motivation for testbed.

    Is fir listed three times to accomodate different build choices?
  4. jodgi
    Well, at least that... lion has testicles, so the painter has that going for him.

    Good stuff!

    This illustrates the conflict between sandbox needs and competitive play. This was sorted in Legends and could easily be done in OW too. When admin announced the new anti-stacking mod changes people started screaming about "cookie cutter ships". They have this expectation of being able to grind for terrible advantages and they place little value on competitive balance. They hide behind buzzwords like "experience", "customization" or "diversity", but if you follow the money, so to speak, it's all about wanting to beat the other guy with a great big ugly stick.

    It is clear: Money. Part of the point is to make crafting matter more.

    From my experience a person with skill is more likely to say "you can't make clutter look pretty. I want to do pretty not ugly."

    Ye, just look how messy it gets with exhaustive explanatory text.
  10. jodgi
    Maybe, but you get used to it. I really like the minimalistic symbolic stuff in port and ow UI.

    Don't remind me of the saddest thing on this fun day.
  13. jodgi
    I don't believe that.

    How does it make it more complicated? It seems automatic and simple to me. How can insurance cash when people fight it out and sink do any harm? If you're right... Still no harm done...or?
  15. jodgi
    I bet you only get cash

    Hmm, so "the best sandbox game in the world" has stuff like this going on? How very interesting.

    Indeed you did. That didn't stop me from using a strong expression to tease you, sorry not sorry. I just find it tiring with these appeals that "devs must take action how I see fit!", "they don't listen", "they don't care!" and "Can't tell me the ole they don't have time to read the forum stuff though, that's all lies." That's why.

    Oh, come on! Response to what?! A guide? Or your moral outrage hidden inside a topic concerning an almost satirical write-up?
  19. jodgi
    Ok, I don't know it. All I have is a vague memory from a long time ago where admin made a comment to one of the many topics concerning alt outrage. I'm sorry but I can't be assed to dig up a post that's probably 18 months old. I don't know the legaleze that separates PvP mark farming from eco/crafting, spy and fishing alts. I do enjoy the "PvP is holy and must be defended" implication, though. The pve alt problem is neither here nor there to me. That is what I meant by "I'm out...". I'm not going to join the crusade when there's no fire in my heart.

    We've been over this many times: Impossible to enforce and I even think Steam rules blocks reactions against chars on separate accounts. We can deal with AFK fishing by killing sealed bottles. Who wants to be the poster-boy of killing a PvE feature? You need to run this by the "PvE content" dudes. I'm out as I have much bigger fish to fry than this little inconsequential issue...
  21. jodgi
    I've never done this myself, but the droprate multiplies with the amount of ships you use, so if you use six ships you'll end up with six bottles after 24 hours of fishing (assuming rng isn't rng during our thought experiment) I'm sure the ratio isn't that bad. In any case I almost always meet one or more players when I play proper and go into patrol zone. I don't care how many sit in reinforcement zone or run around doing eco/crafting chores. As far as I'm concerned there is no difference between an afk-fisher or someone busy with production, hauling, trading or crafting; He is not out to fight me and that makes him useless to me. ... I just realized... I could make a SeeShell image clicker that would click the "bring in reinforcements" button but nothing else. So I could put some ship under the guns of home forts but as soon as someone tagged me they would have to deal with bots to get my bottles. See? I could provide great PvE content for those so inclined, with possible bottle loot as a reward. #providingcontent

    Watch hachi, donner, Otto... and do the exact opposite.
