Finding so much Oil and Lyst since the last VU

Hey guys,

To start I did change the title of this thread, asking me what I think about something and not having a title that reflects what the actual post is about is confusing at best and calls me out at worst, so I updated the title to be more specific of the problem.

I like to think that I do communicate with you guys a lot and do reply to a lot of posts so I don't think it's necessary to have titles like that =p

Cyrene is only lyst and crude planet...strange strategic

Anyhow, like I mentioned in the bug report thread - LINK HERE for those interested - we are closely monitoring all the post Loot 2.0 effects on Cyrene as well as talking to MindArk about what options we have for adjustment outside of a Planet Partner VU.

As of this posting I don't have anything concrete to share on this subject but I will say that I've already sent out some data for MA to look over in this regard and am awaiting feedback from them.

Cheers,
Kris

I tough loot 2.0 affect only hunt, not mining or crafting.
This is not finding so much Lyst and Oil but this is finding only Lyst and Oil, this is not the same thing ;)

I hope to see all of that problem fixed for the next VU, Cyrene misses me :D

rare minerals in hunting loot coming to a vu near u? On calypso for years certain mobs looted mined things, so why not? Maybe go the other way too. Lets get level 13 crafted items dug out of the ground?

Hey guys,

Just to comment on a few of these:

Putting on my tinfoil hat, I'd expect a new mineral map soon. :bagofpopcorn:

No planned changes to where minerals are found.

It's not out of the question, I'll see what the limitations are =P

Minerals ores/enmatters in loot do not count for mining mission ;)

Do you feel they should count?

Probably not. Maybe as a temporary solution for the mining part in stage 2 of ARC Badges*, if the current situation persists much longer. But under regular circumstances, miners would feel devalued. The mission is to reward a specific activity, not the mere amount of resource brought home. Actually our mining missions already reward the size of the loot, whereas hunting missions only reward kills or at best give kill points based on maturity. In short, hunting missions reward input, mining missions reward output. It should stay that the source matters where it's collected from where there are alternatives. Just an opinion ofc, or even a "feeling" with little rational base.

* Edit: Actually I could live with that as regular condition, just for the badges. I can't say why but it doesn't seem as wrong as giving it to all mining missions.

No ! Miners and mining mission are an important part of the game, don't change anything about that ;)
Just bring back our Cyrene ores/enmatters :)

By the way, if i'm remember right, this problem was before the Loot 2.0 VU, this problem appear with PPVU.
 
I vaguely remember that when Toulan was launched, for the first day or two it was all lyst and crude, too. Then suddenly local minerals started to appear. (Secondhand knowledge though, I arrived there a bit later)

Hey guys,

We have already been talking to MindArk as well as monitoring all reports about Mining Finds.

Fix can come only with Platner Partner VU unfortunatly :(

We have to wait September i think.

Justine hits the nail on the head, this is something that will roll out in the next PP VU.

Cheers,
Kris
