Like, if you start pushing the station it's gonna start sending warnings like "what are you doing", "You'd better stop",
"Enough", and then you get wanted

toxic laurel
#

oh now than i see this idea has beem already posted

#

but my solution it's diferent

spice frost
#

Walt already said he plans to indroduce a gravity anchor part which will increase weapons range and make ships immobile.

toxic laurel
#

Noooo

#

That's a tooooo gooooofy solution

spice frost
#

Why?

toxic laurel
#

imagine trying to push a station with a mega ship

spice frost
#

So what?

toxic laurel
#

Make it more realistic

#

not, anticlimatic.

spice frost
#

Black holes are tiny and you cant push those either

toxic laurel
#

Black holes are something completly different

spice frost
#

Its magic sci-fi tech

#

I dont see the issue

toxic laurel
#

I mean i know. But it's not the best solution in my opinion

#

You can blow up the anchor

stuck dirge
#

and doing so will get a wanted

toxic laurel
#

Yeeee

stuck dirge
#

but you can theoretically be unseen for just enough time to ambush before they repair

stark jetty
#

If you want to loot a station you should get wanted, the gravity anchor does that

stuck dirge
#

if you have exceptional standing, wanted will last really short if you hide or eliminate every responder

stark jetty
#

If you're going away to attack pursuit ships the station will unload and/or repair

#

Better to just kill it there and then

stuck dirge
#

alternatively, buy everything needed to repair the anchor (unless it's only basic materials)

livid cave
#

you could pull them

# toxic laurel Make it more realistic

If it was more realistic ships of that mass would just crumple like tin cans on collision. :D

I hope the gravity anchor still lets you do it, just makes it harder

toxic laurel
#

No

#

I mean it's very anticlimatic

#

Literally making stations inmobile it's kinda a bad fix

stuck dirge
#

on the other hand, support platforms not being outranged by literally an ion beam

toxic laurel
#

I prefer having the station sending you warnings about you pushing them

crisp tangle
#

That feel when you push a carcass of a dead ship or an asteroid into the station and it in turn pushes station and the station gets it wanted.
And it being a dead ship causes it to constantly spawn bounty hunters and reset.
Think of all the loot! That's even better than the sun push!
Push one station into another for the faction wars.

stuck dirge
#

manipulate stupidity of an io ship to burn a station

jolly rover
#

anchor block sounds bad but with some work it can be good

toxic laurel
#

Ya, i trust on the devs.

#

walt is wise

toxic laurel
#

Like if anything pushes the station away from it's location get the player wanted cuz it's the only one than can do it.

#

ai wont do it on purpose

crisp tangle
toxic laurel
#

It's not that common to have traders bumping with stations

#

Welp, ai it's kinda dumb

#

but improve it and kabom my idea works

crisp tangle
toxic laurel
#

I mean if ai bumps randomly on station the game it's gonna detect it as if it's your fault

#

update ai for preventing that

crisp tangle
#

yes I understand what you meant there

#

but I can see it already, beginner player peacefully mining hyperium, all of a sudden gets double wanted by 2 different factions

toxic laurel
#

xD

crisp tangle
#

well

toxic laurel
#

Hmm that would be a good idea for making career harder tho

crisp tangle
#

to be completely honest, it would make game more balanced

#

as the player would get pushed to be more proactive and agressive

#

and won't be able to just sit and mine for 20 hours

toxic laurel
#

Welp, it's player choice what to do.

crisp tangle
#

I mean, it's like, in career as soon as you get 1st tier rep with any factions their delivery quests become self rewarding

#

you can just look at the quest, buy whatever they need from the station that needs it, take quest and deliver, and you get more creds than the cost

toxic laurel
#

Oh

crisp tangle
#

pushing station into the sun is like baseline of absurd stuff you can do in career

#

like you can get a ~80k ship and go to an high zone and control snipe a 1-2mil ship and just put swap control from your ship to that one

#

doesn't even take that long

#

but you'd have some crew issues from rep limitations

#

tho those don't take as long either

#

sun pushing is more of a funny choice than an exploit, really

toxic laurel
#

sun pushing it's both

toxic laurel
#

Like, when you buy a resource from station, it's gonna be marked as "station resource"

#

And for resource missions the station wont accept the "station resource"

crisp tangle
#

careful now, with all those suggestions you might fix the broken state of the pve game

#

like, what's next, fix the mine part costs so that they don't sell for 4x their supposed price? cmon now

toxic laurel
#

Oh uh i'll try

#

but that's edging my english skills

#

The more you buy from a station, the more expensive the resource becomes?

#

Oh bruh

#

Welp in conclusion i think cosmoteer needs a economics rework

crisp tangle
# toxic laurel but that's edging my english skills

oh sorry I'm just trying to joke here a little.
My point is, yeah the pve is kinda very very broken, but there are a lot of issues outside of those particular ones.
As for mine parts, yeah they are kinda broken, the devs seemingly forgot to devide by the number of parts on there, as they did with every other ammo type, which results in mine parts costing 4 times their price, which means they are extremely profitable to make/sell.
Especially because most stations have materials that mine factory needs, and factories itself are cheap.

toxic laurel
#

Ohhh i see the issue

#

Then the solution it's just to devide the numbers of parts..

crisp tangle
#

for the mines, yes, everything else is like that already

toxic laurel
#

Welp then that's gonna get fixed anytime soon it's not very hard.

crisp tangle
#

not unless someone points it out

toxic laurel
#

Ok i'll point it out

#

or you'll do it?

crisp tangle
#

why not just wait and see when they find it out? I mean it's not a critical bug after all.

toxic laurel
#

Okay xd this it's gonna be funny

crisp tangle
#

they'll probably will read this tho ;D

toxic laurel
#

Welp it depends how much often devs read the ideas and feedback channel

crisp tangle
#

There are other games like cosmoteer, I played some of those several years ago, and then I tried cosmoteer, I could never quite shake off the feeling that if there was a game like cosmoteer mixed with one of the other games, it would be better...
But also I recognize that it's kind of wrong to tell to the developer to make his game more similar to some other game.

toxic laurel
#

Yeah cosmoteer should keep their unique style

crisp tangle
#

yeah
