discussion about industrial update

[honest dust]

While I understand there’s plenty of bugs and it will bring more not everyone is just wanting pvp there are builders farmers and pvpers and those who enjoy all of them like me but I prefer build and the industrial update would help all the builders and farmers we have been getting updates that mainly focus on the pvp side of things (weapons and monuments that are contested) a lot of people like me want the industrial update even if it brings bugs because it expands on the barren side of farming and building thank you for your time let’s keep the discussions about this update please

[old stone]

👋🏼 Welcome to the discord, sorry if I've ever killed you!

[honest dust]

I would like to add something I would also like a qol update optimizing things fixing bugs ect

[west sluice]

only good thing that came out of the update on pc was electric furnaces but it ultimately made the playerbase even more lazy which Is a bad thing

[tall harbor]

Most of the people don't have time to stay and monitor there base and the industrial fix this thing also it's fun

[haughty sleet]

Well that's the thing you don't need to monitor it if you hook up the stuff right

[tall harbor]

I mean by monitoring filling furnaces tc and sorting loot

It's much easier with industrial

[haughty sleet]

Yeah but that's the thing with the industrial system you can get that automatically done

I'm sorry I read your first message wrong

[old zealot]

Bro I only need if the pipes then I don't have to keep stocking the furnaces and that means I would be more willing to farm if I don't have to stay up 3 more hours to cook my farm

[tall harbor]

Yeah you confused me 😅

[haughty sleet]

I confused myself 😅

[old zealot]

I'm happy to farm but if I have to cook a box of sulphur and sit there making sure it's always going I just don't farm

[west sluice]

if only that's how it worked on pc on pc people left their base less not more after industrial

[old zealot]

Bro it gives me a reason to leave my base then I don't have to keep watching them and I would actually want to raid not just PvP

[west sluice]

I understand that I'm just saying people said the same thing for pc then instead of leaving the base more they stayed in their base more and even when they did leave they'd just send everything from the 1x1s connected throughout the map to pump everything back to base map wide

I just don't want a repeat of that

[old zealot]

Well seeing how everyone I talk to only wants industrial they should probably add it over anything else

[west sluice]

tbf all the people asking for it haven't experienced it already on pc there's pros and cons to it I'd be all for it if people didn't use it as a excuse to not leave base for anything

or use it to send everything back to base safely with no risk

when on the opposite side of the map

[old zealot]

And the only other thing I have heard more about is a higher Player cap

[west sluice]

that I'd like but only after bug fixes

that way there'd be less people complaining and everything would be more stable

[old zealot]

Well unless the add a only new gen version were never getting it tbh

[west sluice]

me personally only bug I encounter frequently is the ghost node bug and the ghost walls aka still being there after its gone which doesn't happen to often

[west sluice]

not true in the slightest but I don't think you'd ever do research before coming to a conclusion on the matter

[old zealot]

The only nods I get that are ghost are sulphur and a few stone and then walls

[west sluice]

if people took better care of their consoles barely any complaints would be about old gen

[old zealot]

Well seeing how it performs on PS4 pro it's not that playable

[west sluice]

idk original Xbox one worked perfectly same with the new gen series x but I have no issues with either doesn't mean others don't but majority of the ones that do have trouble tend to not take care of their consoles never dusting or cleaning

I do it every other day without fail to avoid any problems with the systems

[old zealot]

Seems to be more of a PS4 problem my Xbox One worked fine but my brothers PS4 and all his friends ones had problemz with it

[west sluice]

idk ik a couple people on ps4 in the discord that's told me they've ran rust just fine aside from occasionally getting disconnected

[old zealot]

But my Xbox had problems with less performance hungry games so idk but anyway I like farming I hate cooking since there is always something better I can be doing

[west sluice]

I've never really had a problem with cooking I'd tend to be able to cook 1-2 boxes of metal every 30 minutes

that is if I got my main done with a compound down

on average my compounds tend to fit 24-36 large furnaces

[old zealot]

There has been to many wipes were I haven't been bothered to cook my sulphur if Im Able to have more fun PvP

[west sluice]

I tend to spend about 30-45 minutes a day farming/cooking out of the 3 hours I'm on each day throughout the week rest is spent doing pvp and raiding

[old zealot]

They only time I cook my sulphur is when I need ammo or something else but I do lots of farming and so does my team

[west sluice]

I strictly play solo I spend no more than a hour farming/cooking combined per day and that's pushing it

[old zealot]

And if there is a lot of sulphur and we have enemies is when it gets cooked but if I could have it getting cooked in the background I would be doing more raids

[west sluice]

I'll just be spending my entire day tomorrow trying to decide on a design I'm going to make for wipe or if I'm going to go with the same one as this wipe

[west sluice]

not exactly a good thing on the raid side of things but that's just because majority of the playerbase quits after getting raided 1 time

[old zealot]

We don't when we get offlined we keep there base location in mind and if we don't get offlined that night we start farming to raid them

[west sluice]

till the playerbase has a change I'm mentality I'd only see that killing servers pops faster

[west sluice]

that's a good thing but majority of players nowadays on both pc and console alike quit the first time they get raided

[old zealot]

We restarted 11 times this wipe played for 15 days every time was an offline

[west sluice]

I've never had to restart this wipe but did get attempted offlined around 30 times myself they either ran when I got on opening doors/I killed them/ or they ran out of boom

[old zealot]

Nah bro your to lucky

They did it when we were asleep or at school

[west sluice]

not really most people can't drop 440+ rockets

[west sluice]

most of the times was while I was asleep which is why I said they ran out of boom

it was always 1 of 3 things

my base had 7 bunkers 3 open cores and 52 4 box lootrooms 24 spawns

[old zealot]

Well we wouldn't have a base that was to expensive until day 2 of our restart

[west sluice]

more spawns if you count inside the bunkers

[west sluice]

yeah my main took 2 days to finish

[old zealot]

We had a 3 man farm a box of rockets to raid our base but then they found out we got offlined so they just ended up with a box of rockets

[west sluice]

only got that much done in 2 days because wipeday I compounded my starter with 6 large furnaces

[old zealot]

Yea i mean were to busy PvP and Running monuments we only farm when we are ready to start the base and that's normally the end of day 1 of wipe or the restart and base isn't normally finished until end of day 2

[west sluice]

yeah I focus on pvp and raiding after my mains finished only time I pvp in between then is at monuments

or if anyone's at a airdrop

I tend to focus on getting secured first

[old zealot]

But it's funny since we could have the biggest and less amount of lot but still be the only one to get offlined in our area

[west sluice]

I tend to get hit daily they just never have enough

[old zealot]

Even when there are far better bases to raid in our spot

[west sluice]

gave my base away Saturday got on Sunday to see how the duo I gave the base to was doing and base was half decayed on 1 of the 4 tcs

[old zealot]

The only time we get Onlined on weekly but monthly is only offline

[west sluice]

they had enough farm for a full week I had leftover they just never put it in the tc

[west sluice]

I never get onlined intentionally only has happened once on console in 3 years and 3 times in 10.5 years on pc

rest were either full offlines or attempted offlines turned online

btw to everyone wanting industrial that'll only promote more offlines

[old zealot]

We got onlined well we were busy team killing and we got onlined 4 other times that weekly wipe we gave up after the fourth day as weeklys die so fast on oce there is like only one monthly that always has a qeaue

[west sluice]

due to the piping system

[old zealot]

Also promotes Bigger bases

[west sluice]

ok and my base was big lol not the biggest I've ran but top 3

[west sluice]

check dms

would've sent the picture in Clips&Pics if we still had it

[sharp cradle]

the game isn't stable enough nor in a state to have the industrial system added.

we need optimizations both client & server side, as well as stability improvements before we can see anything like this.

the electricity system rlly affected performance, so i definitely expect the industrial system would do the same if not more.

[heady siren]

As someone who can only play 2 nights a week I'm for industrial so i can build bigger bases and they can still be there when i log on because industrial allows you to feed your tc from large boxes
