Anyone who's complaining about the quality of the gal(s) they built in should answer the following question: if your gal is really so bad that it's not worth the cost of the defenses you put in, WHY DID YOU BUILD THERE?

For the same reason this thread exists: because it was identified as a problem and we were told that the lack of T0 resources was going to be fixed. We just didn't anticipate such a half arsed and over complicated method that barely made a noticeable difference.

You have made this game into a King of the Hill rush/war at the start of each uni. The team that is on at the reset and builds first in the center wins.

2) There are vastly more than 5-6 gals worth building in this uni. You can easily 100b+ profit from over 50 galaxies.

Inb4 players start QQing about Traders exploiting dev information for emp.

this post was created with the rather complete and precise explanation of what would be done, im not sure which part you misunderstood to get your hope up that every galaxies would suddently become "worth it"

I don't buy it. You all had your entire team spaces set up well before there was ever an announcement. That means people were laying full defenses in gals they had scanned and KNEW what they were getting into.

Not got a stake in this argument, but if you want territories contested why not severely reduce the amount of wild space and make all the galaxies of high quality? so that teams are made to conquer galaxies over a need of space than whether the gal is worth it to take?

For example a big team might end up with say 5-6 galaxies now that is nowhere near enough for them to operate in. Perhaps I'm ignorant or outdated on the player politics currently in game.

Unfortunately I have no clue about the current BvB system to comment.

When every galaxy you scanned is completely devoid of T0 commods then you don't have much of a choice. What did you want us to do? Not build? So, what you will suggest is: build in a higher DF. Last time I checked only one team can own a galaxy, but if you know a secret method of operating otherwise, please let us know.

Except the issue is you cannot realistically contest territory because of the massively carebear new BvB rules.

Or you could try not using the most expensive building materials you can find, if the resources they are protecting aren't valuable enough to justify the top tier defense configuration. You are trying to have it both ways: using expensive top-tier defense configurations when the return on investment is questionable, and then complaining afterwards about the return on investment.

Last I checked, it was your team that was complaining incessantly about the ability to drop unlimited BvB kits after 24 hours. So we changed it to the current system, where you can still drop essentially unlimited BvB kits, but after 8 days and only with substantial credit and commod investment. You still get 5 BvB kits after 24 hours, which is 2.5x more BvB force than was possible before the base rebalance. Again, it seems like you want to have everything both ways.
