according to your release information on the new update -
“Material requirements for all Tech I ship blueprints will be updated, and new manufacturing tiers are established, making industry progression more consistent and easier to understand”
“Allow for better compartmentalization in the manufacturing process between subcapitals, capitals, and supercapital ships”
“Positively impact capital proliferation without a significant impact on subcap markets”
how does adding more material requirements and new reactions and new parts and new blueperints for Tech1 battleships make it “easier to understand” and not have a “significant impact on subcap markets”
You just made it orders of magnitude harder for a fairly new player (like me) to even attempt to manufacture battleships let alone other smaller ships because of material requirements. I mostly play this game as a miner/industrialist. now i have learn about planetary interactions and reactions which i have no idea about just to continue making the ships i have been making. let alone at much higher input costs.
This update does the exact opposite of what your stated goals of making industry easier to understand.
“making industry progression more consistent and easier to understand” - completely false!
“Allow for better compartmentalization in the manufacturing process between subcapitals” completely false!
“without a significant impact on subcap markets” - completely false!
Please roll back this update. or at least stop lying to your users. It appears the whole purpose of this update is to make ships more costly and complex. causing higher destruction values and while fewer users are able (or willing) to make them because there is no profit or users dont have the ability to make the new required parts.
You have effectively put me out of business on producing T1 battleships and increased my costs on all ships.
You need to just speak truth when talking to your users. stop putting completely false narrative and spin on your communications with your paying customers.
