For all the new players please watch this video about how WAS BEFORE the gameplay experience in this game. I just want to share with other people that the first and most important part of the game is what offer the game to you when you are piloting the ships and how you feel it. The others aspects of the game like how many maps have the differents game modes… is secondary. The most important is pilot the ships and all the things you can do it , that is the game. Less weapons, less modules is less FUN. (sorry for my english)
Enjoy the video and take atention about the active modules that you could use before in this game:
The game has both improved and gone down in quality.
But it wasn’t all sunshine back then either I think. Though I do miss quite a lot of the old days(loyalty mostly)
With the new loyality sytem how much time do you need to get lvl 15 in loyality playing about 2-3 hours per day? maybe 5 years hahaha…
Ok the new loyality system is not very good. A good improvement will be if you get a reward in loyality with every medal you get in battle. A exmple if you get the medal for 5 kills in a round you get 500 exp extra loyality. if you kill 10 in a round you get 1000… I think is a good idea in my opinion
The old system was amazing thats why i have lvl 12 with the empire hehe
Woah I wasnt there when that happened… a Tackler with command and ecm modules? how did they work? :o
BEfore wasn’t any modules restrictions you can equip all modules in exsitence for all ships so that way you could do your custom ship with the modules of your choice

Woah so you could equip a interceptor with engi modules? that sounds nice.
To bad that crap like that really was impossible to balance, and that Skill tree was leading to instances where veteran players with maxed out skills went back to t1 and stomp the hell out of new players, where they could not possible equip anything close to what veterans had. Oh yeah and nukes on every thing. New system is way more balanced
The old system caused many balance problems and no ship was really unique and don’t forget that there were many skills in the skill tree that unlocked equipment parts so new players were really limited in choice compared to veterans.

As opposed to now, where we have to grind 6+ months to get to R15?
Looking at that implant / skill / whatever tree makes me wanna leave right now… In fact, pretty much stopped playing since it’s the 3rd time my ship setups were kicked in the b***s and i have to find new pools of credits without having to spend GS for refitting. Screw this. Starmade and PS2 Scythes ftw. Collecting last batch of 10k loyalty later today and am off. Thought 095 was a good sign for the better. Will see how this goes till release, but if it keeps the current ‘lazy mode’ i won’t be looking back.

Totally agree with you! You make any setup for your ships and the updates kill all your ships and custom configurations. OK it’s a beta game but this things make the people leave the game. How is possible all the members of my corp stoped to play suddenly. They did bcz the update that removed the 2 slot for missiles and the 2 slot for ammunation and also the restrictions about the modules. I’m the only stupid that sometimes still playing here.
And what about the players database? yesterday 800 players online…what a joke. In 1 year they have the same players online than at the beginning of the game. Crazy!

In your opinion BALANCE is the most important part? so think about the old QUAKE 3 game… the railgun can killed you with one shoot, so it’s a not balanced game… THEY FAIL…
If you are bad in a game or it’s difficult for you… DON’T PLAY. But the easy is complain about the game is not balanced bcz veteran players kill me so easy.

The grind has changed, but I am only talking about the skill tree at the moment.
The old skill tree allowed to use end game skills in T1 vs new players, that means you got a very big boost from your skills that new players did not have.
Not to mention the unlocked items.

During the main times we have 2000-3000 players online.

There was a time when “Engineer” didn’t exist. It was just Frigate, Fighter, and Interceptor. xD

A lot of the time it is actually the veterans who bring up balance issues because they see how broken something is. Achievements are only worth something if the playing field is even, allowing skill and not items to be the determining factor in matches.
