As i mentioned in the last thread, it was a problem for me clicking like 50 nodes for each container because of rsi (Repetitive-Strain-Injury). so i was very pleased to see that you got rid of them and created a much smaller layout (because you care about the health of your players, right ? ).
Well till yesterday when i tried it again after 1-2 weeks and had to realize you went back to the click 50 - mostly empty - nodes layout to get cookie or be doomed. it lead for me to not being able to continue exploration after the 2nd site because it simply did hurt too much I don't understand why you did that, there is no way to even guess where to click to reach anything till you click it and then it's pure luck if it's a trap, a cookie or one of ~40 empty useless nodes.
Another thing i am not sure if that's intended or not is that i had to leave a hacking site after a failed hack because the structure was causing constant damage up to ~10-15km range, forcing me to leave. No NPCs to shoot and continue, so i couldn't even try hacking the remaining containers at least in my untanked scanfrig. will try again with some tank later.
Maybe that's just another barrier to get the goodies or even the price for easier and faster scanning. the loot in general looked good to me. some sites where crap as usual and then there is the random faction loot to make your day and come back tomorrow.
But i don't see bringing people together to do exploration except for DED sites where you might need help killing stuff. Exploration is what i do if there simply is nobody else around to do something else, so i get in my frig and start looking for profession sites. Forcing me to partner up even with strangers to get all the loot seems strange to me but maybe it will work out, maybe not.
Looting the stuff takes some practice but as far as i understand it works so that you click any green container, all others become yellow. if loot finished the yellow ones become green again.
- green=loot 1 of them now
- yellow=loot in progress wait till green
- white=out of range (oh no my cookies floating away, doubleclick to approach)
- blinking=container is lost in space soon(tm)
My hopes are still very high on this expansion as it looks really great so far, so keep on your good work. |
