What I am going to say I do not say as Forum Moderator or GM or whatever, I say this as the player OmegaFighter burning in madness.
Alrighty, I think that this change is the ultimate next step of idiocy.
Reason given by devs was that this is necessary for future development, well… yeah if it should stay profitable.
They start to throw around xenocrystals and that is nice. But it is now too many, everyone can stockpile resources, some people just click because they have all they need, so basically the grind for a brand new alien ship would be… non existent. So what we get now is brand new resources, and a limit on xenocrystals. This technically forces us to spend resources on Thar’Ga, or we pay 50 to get Tai’Kin and spend it there. Like me, and I refuse… And I get exactly this:
Destroyed. They have been destroyed, they have not been exchanged for other resources, they have not been sold, they have been terminated. My effort has been punished, it has been taken away from me. Not replaced but just eliminated from any database. Because playing is wrong. Wanting to gain resources for things I want, that is wrong. I am supposed to spend on things that they want me to spend on, not my own. I can not fulfill my own wishes because the system refuses to let me do so, and what is that? It is xxxx. To say the least. I knew they were to implement a cap, I was kind of fine with that, I expected something like 999? Around that number. What we got today was just a kick in the face to every single veteran that valued their resources and saved for things they ever wanted. Now they are forced to spend them.
In a few weeks it will probably look like that “R14 destroyers make their comeback” - For one day, get them as long as you can. Oh wait the resources you have available are not enough. Guess what, now you have to spend on bundles. Just one idea of how this could be used against us very hard, one out of many.
I do not want to say like ‘yo guys xxxx this game it’s over’ but this clearly giving me the feeling of that, all our efforts, vanish. Insulted, Diminished. That’s what they are, our efforts where thwarted. Literally fucked right through the middle. Because it was not profitable. And even if is not just for the profit. The last thing it is for is our (players) advantage. It is just to mess with us. It is not giving us anything. This is potato.
Oh but hey there is that nice bundle for 50€ to get you Tai’Kin and 90 days of license! No. It’s a damn overpriced pack that I would not even buy if it contained half-assed cookies, just for the principle. A naked ship which nodes you can not even buy because the current cap was literally given 0 thought into? A node that costs you literally 310 even tho the cap is 300. Yes this sounds like a very smart move. Not.
BUT YOU GET 1.5x RESOURCES! Yes and what for? Reaching a certain number and you will lose 1.5x more resources for nothing! It’s 1.5x more frustration, literally.
TL;DR: That 200/300 cap is xxxx, it was given no thought into and it was just made to xxxx with us. It is important for future development, in their book. But it will make it just harder for us as it is. I am a game master, a forum moderator, I have given them feedback. And you know what? I have told them that adding a cap in general is xxxx. I told it them many times, I told them that if they do it it should be at least 1000x or the shitstorm will be real. Did they listen to me? You see it now, no xxxx was given about it. My feedback was not valued, a player who gave them years over years of service, over a hundred days of time. And not to forget, the money I gave them. It was not valued, not considered. It was overriden by very primitive ideas that may eventually lead to a profit margin if we are dumb enough. But I hope we are not. Please proof that you are not. Do not support this, I certainly will not. Regardless of my position I can not take this at all. This is bullshit and should not be tolerated.
This is the nice version. Yes I use profanity in this, not to be a badass but to spice my opinion with the right words. And even this would probably be censored. Because opinions against their ideas fueled with TRUE anger are wrong. I am mad, I am not tolerating this. And I will say any word necessary for this xxxx to get removed or changed into a fair system. Thanks.
