Edited by: EliteSlave on 21/08/2007 14:32:19 Why are most of the drone regions so barren when it comes to moon minerals?
I think our most valuable mineral is neodymium, is there a possible chance of a reseed to get things like technium, dysporium, or mercury?

I think what it comes down to is that there is a intended balance, just because they made more solar systems doesnt mean they have to make them like the rest.

while i agree that their has to be a finite balance around the Eve Universe... but there also has to come down to balancing in certain area's, and going to a 50 moon system, and 49 of them are evaporate deposits and the other being nothing... is not balanced. | | Dev's if your Ugly and you know it.. and Proud of it...

I believe it's all part of some cruel experiment.
Much like this board, only took me 3 login attempts and no less than 30 reply attempts to get this post in. CCP ****can these subpar boards already!
Oh and fix the drone regions.

IIRC there was originally supposed to be about 3x the normal amount of Rarity8/16/32 moon minerals in drone regions but thanks to who knows what it apparently turned upside down and you got about one third of what you should have gotten. [ insert fancy sig here ] |

Edited by: Lube Myholes on 21/08/2007 15:43:33 I can`t remember a whine thread from any of you drone land guys about the masses of high ends that dropped in the beginning when drone lands were released and every1 mad billions of isk by floating the market with zyd , every region has his plus and minus. We could not have every system like AZN-D2. Stop whining or leave drone land.

Edited by: Princess Jodi on 21/08/2007 15:48:03 Yeah, Drone regions got the shaft on Moon Minerals. All those crying 'balanced with other Regions' haven't got a clue. Here's a short list of the broken issues almost a year after they opened up:
1 - Poor Moon Minerals 2 - No Officer Spawns 3 - No Hauler Spawns 4 - No faction increase for ratting 5 - No loot drops - just minerals 6 - No Archeology exploration sites 7 - No Hacking exploration sites 8 - No gas clouds 9 - No static complexes 10 - Encounters have one less possible encounter that elsewhere 11 - Exploration have one less possible exploration site than elsewhere 12 - Low Mexalon ores. (8 months it took CCP to fix the asteroids to the current state.) 13 - No Agents
So in the name of 'Balance', I think we should all have Free Dreadnoughts that respawn in our hangars every day. That might even things up a bit with the other regions.

As far as I'm aware from reading a dev response to the Mex thing, each region has a deficit in a certain mineral, to promote trading and expansion.
Plus - these are drone regions. These drones are numerous and multiply quickly. They've got to get the resources somehow - that explains mineral losses.
(But yes, I agree, some sort of balance would be nice. I mean the 2D maps don't have the drone regions mapped properly, I'm guessing because no one goes out there.)

Compare this example:
"Normal" ratting
1, Kill rat, instant isk 2, Pick up loot 3, Use loot or sell it
Drone ratting
1, Kill rat 2, Fetch hauler 3, Collect loot 4, Haul to station 5, Refine if you have the skill 6, Transport though 0.0 to sell 7, Isk, maybe...
Which would you prefer for the odd 30min to 2hr session ?

I'd be persistant in checking moons, we've had a number at which the resource type has changed over time (ironically from decent to bad).
I get the idea that the original underlying plan for the drone regions once upon a time got tossed out as the design & development time for that plan required resources which had to be assigned elsewhere.
Prism X did some great work on the roid distribution and size hickups, maybe there's a moon guy to be found.

We used to think it was a plot by CCP to keep the regions broken until Bob was ready to conquer them. However, the recent events (no doubt helped by our own presence in the war) have shed doubt on Bob's continued existence, let alone an eventual Bob dominance. Therefore the Drone Regions remain broken, and will probably never be fixed.

Back when the regions were opened up, I recall there being exactly ZERO rarity-8 moons. I forget if that was ever fixed, I left the drone regions in April.

That is what annoys me most. Tbh though the isk isn't too bad apart from the fact you get it 2 weeks after you rat it, and there is absolutely no spice by that I mean faction/hauler spawn.
The miners and industrialists are having a fine time though :P

WE ARE NOT balanced with the other regions anyone that thinks otherwise TRY LIVE HERE FIRST!! then post after that.
Is it so difficult to give us
1. faction drones in belts (Officers, haulers and commander spawns.
2. Better moons.
3. A variety of scannable plexes.
4. Look at the respawn rate of belt rats please, I somtimes find more spawns on the gates than I do in the belts

Isn;t that what happens to all those minerals you get from ratting Vs. drones anyway?

Ever heard of Outposts? We build our own cos there werent any seeded like the other regions.

I have lived in Pure Blind. It was a hole. Out here, though, the type of hole is... different. The only love on the horizon I had was the compression nerf, to help bring us up ratting-wise. Now, that's doubtful.

I always assumed the drone regions would have good moons mainly because they're supposed to be an industrialists paradise.
Now, I do think drone region people complain too much about this and that. (eg. the compression nerf) but if the moons are that awful I can understand being annoyed.
