Quote:Yes, but think about the bases those already exist. Those were built according to the supply points present in 4.86. With the supply point changes, some base's supply time increased quite much. If they let the bases die and build it somewhere else, that results in even more supply grinding. And for example the mining bases, like the ones in Alberta, they have to be close to the ore source.
Well, bases that already exist should make do...or they will expire...and give way to new bases that will be easier to build/maintain. Survival of the fittest, right? Or, those players will have to expand their numbers so they don't have to grind quite as hard/long to get things done. OR.....maybe this will HELP bring actual business back to the Supply corporations in the game and create new opportunities for RP/piracy/pews/fun.
Quote:Other thing:
It was said the basic everyday commodities will be sold in several places. Robotics Hardware has 2 sell points now. Reinforced Alloy has less sell points than Basic Alloy. I could not find Hull Segments anywhere (yet). Is this subject to changes, or this will stay this way?
Your assumption that Robotics Hardware, Reinforced Alloy, and Hull Segments are basic, everyday commodities seems to be a bit off then, yes? Look around! I'm sure you'll find them somewhere.
