Yeah this makes sense

#

Let's nerf surveillance then great

urban notch
#

Yeah you got a point.

dapper roost
#

i dint get it

#

i’m to dumb

#

just quadruple icebreaker profitstrolley

#

and make it more expensive

unkempt meteor
#

My opinion is that surveillance and hypermach chaining are too OP compared to everything else

#

Nerf those 2 together

#

The icebreaker actually has a better earning-cost ratio than similar tier ships

#

considering its expeditions

#

fuck i need to ES all my surveillance aircraft as fast as possible now

#

back to not touching grass

#

ships take to long

No great

#

IMO

#

if you make WP harder to earn people with less playing time will sink even more

#

Lk-60Ya needs a buff
not a big one, but a buff nonetheless

#

Expeditions and recon differ greatly when it comes to effort required

#

That reminds me, the upcoming Healy should also get expedition missions

jolly briar
#

i think that commiting to a 20+ hour job is a certain effort in and of itself

unkempt meteor
#

The addition of the Healy may require a rebalance of the LK too

#

We'll see

#

if the rewards increase the ship cost will also be increased

jolly briar
#

the concept of expeditions is cool, but the gameplay is effectively two boat jobs in a row
without additional rewards to encourage it it's not gonna see much use

#

Compared to the Rosenrot for example

#

Earns about 90% of what the Rosenrot does, but only costs 74%

jolly briar
#

i don't know if it's a shared feeling

#

but i think the biggest commitment with this boat isn't to get it

#

it's to actually commit to a 24 hour job

unkempt meteor
#

There will always be someone who prefers these jobs

jolly briar
#

probably

#

but i still feel like 700k for a 24 hour commitment is a little low

jolly briar

#

It's going to be tricky to balance them out... LK doesn't even seem to do research IRL

#

Speed comes into play too

#

Healyactually does research so it can have higher income at the cost of speed

jolly briar

#

Yep

jolly briar
#

maybe i'm relatively isolated, but the way i see ships being used is solely for overnight or AFKing

jolly briar
#

so i run them in such a way that when i'm available to properly play in front of my PC, the boat has finished its job

NONONONONONO

#

surveilence my beloved

jolly briar
#

that's why i don't think i'll ever do the research jobs

night scarab
#

Alright bois its time to continue the aero nautica war

jolly briar
#

the ship would run on AFK time, but then i'd have to stay "active" in front of the boat job

night scarab
jolly briar
#

for several hours

wet wagon
#

I would just buff research jobs

jolly briar
#

and then wait another ten hours for it to come back

#

in theory, the boat is balanced

unkempt meteor
#

It will be considered when the Healy is added

jolly briar
#

in practice, i feel like the commitment is the biggest challenge

hollow tree
#

i think surveillance could be nerfed by 15 to 20%

noble atlas
hollow tree
#

I think the distance between markers can be reduced from 25 max to 15 max

#

it will make the process a little bit faster

jolly briar
#

am i the only one who thinks surveillance is very good as is ?

hollow tree
#

the only minus imo is that sometimes you dont know where the waypoint is

#

so i think we need a direction marker showing the way of the waypoint

jolly briar
#

yea

#

but tbh that could apply to all job markers

#

@vagrant mesa congratulations

#

you have single handily made the entire aeronautican community hate you

soft loom
#

this whole place is fail

#

anyways we are nerfing both significantly

#

next update

#

you will only get 5000 wp from each job

#

i think thats a very fair tradeoff

vagrant mesa
#

i cant tell if thats sarcasm or being legitmate
