couple of interesting things here---

I love how the majority of people who use latin, do it flippantly and in mostly passive aggressive projections on others. Saying the idea doesn't have merit in one's own opinion, then further illuminating that there IS a priority of programming and multiple facets of the game constantly running, that ANY change is an effort of the programmer. Thus, a concern common among players is naturally which affects the most people or hurts the most (conversely). IF only a handful have an issue or such a circumspect group of future players will be negatively impacted, then it follows to seek/pursue other improvements.

There are countless threads on here asking for anything you can imagine. In a dream world a lot of them would be pretty cool and enhance play. In our real world lives we should expect that only so many can be implemented.

Yes, there are other means to be less tasty. I have 24k cloak and soon to be well over 25k. This doesn't cover my defense , hull, etc IF you could find me. I am LSB, and i am one of the people who added items WAAAY back in order to be stronger until my production could compensate. I also did it because i liked having items and didn't want to swap things out a lot.

Some other things to consider...if you can only play from your phone, i get it, but that doesnt mean it has to alter to accomodate you. Playing xbox shooter games is better on a 50 inch tv versus 12 but xbox isnt going to have sympathy you bought the 12 inch. Also the game is meant to reward people who can devote more time. IF thats not you, no prob...BUT for those who can should benefit.

I have NEVER had a ton of time to play but ive always found time if i wanted. So consider using a softer tonation of you centric demands.

I still feel this is an easy fix and would be good for Return Player Value sure you want active players for the super-halc'd PVP system as is but I still feel this would be a good idea despite all the negative feedback from players with no idea what it's like to end up Hospitalized or in a situation where they can't access a phone or operate one due to certain circumstances.

Staying active is all good but retaining a player base from loyal players who are willing to return to a game that milks people regularly (and I make purchases on the game too) is of no significant trouble to the developer or anyone else.

I see nothing that any of you lose by this change and I consider those against it in contempt of a better community spirit that this game so desperately needs. I have nothing to hide and I'm coming back to the game regardless of whether this gets fixed or not but I think some people need better attitudes towards ideas that benefit others rather than simply basing it off what benefits them personally.

Sure I sounded desperate in the initial topic post but wouldn't you be if you were a large ship build before the small ship build change? And no I'd rather not reset my account that's the way I play thank you very much. If SSBs existed when I first played I'd probably be on that boat but unfortunately you can't roll back certain things in this game or cut out deck space which... should be a GP option in my honest opinion Another idea for another time but yeah I anticipate a lot of wingers saying it would be unfair game balance especially for all those who reset just to be a SSB in the first place. Same scenario as being LSB before SSB change. No one likes change except for those that benefit from it; although if I were someone else (which I'm not) I'd still think this idea would benefit replayability. Like a star trek episode that someone wants to re-watch which would overall improve player population in the future. Margins would be small to begin with from one single change but it's the bigger picture that matters in the end.

To all naysayers.... to the fiery pits of Sto-vo-kor with you lol. And bump. Lock if need be who cares all this will get is negative rage from people who don't understand that real life gets rough sometimes. Technology doesn't automatically integrate with people who are in hospital getting treated for whatever reason. It's different for different people.

That's my say this year at least. Hate or nay-say all you want. I for one refuse to get shot-down for something that takes less than a couple of minutes to make a big change If not for me then for someone else. I'll speak my mind even if it annoys you There we have it. Enjoy.

hey, i only started playing this game when i was laid up for 2 months facedown with a bubble in my eye thanks to a retinal detachment. long.term inactivity is NOT a sufficient rationale for justifying an interface tweak which would decrease the disadvantage to SSBs. anyone coming back from inactivity only has to repair each of their modules ONCE and then they are good to go. SSBs have to do this every time they switch up from a scan run or for a PvP run or for an NPC run or for a hacking run.


what we lose is Dan's ability to focus on interface tweaks and game content that would improve gameplay for more people than this suggestion would.

the current deck.based damage cap has been in place since july of 2010, just under 6 months after the game was released. if becoming a SSB had truly been a priority, any players at that time have had over 6 YEARS to make that happen. anyone who hasn't ... is more interested in having the flexibility of a LSB. no shame in that, but no justification for whining about SSBs either.


it's not how long the change would take to make, but the impact on the game. Dan doesn't want to make things any easier for SSBs (see the new 4k deck restrictions on the corruption missions).
