Sorry to all the hunters (not that i seen there any during all my time...). Oh wait, i saw Beki hunting there once, but that's it.
So, newly increased spawn has turned mining into nightmare. You have literally fight for every inch to drop a bomb. I'm not one of those unarmored miners, and can handle argos and cornoanterions just fine, but it's just not reasonable. I do not come to
cnd to hunt, and as a recent survey showed, majority of other
cnd visitors are coming here to mine as well. Spawn was quite acceptable just a few days ago, when it was hard, but not too hard to totally discourage mining. And now even with hof you hardly cover hunting expenses.
If it was done for events, i sincerely doubt that a few events over weekend will generate the same amount of taxes as an actively mined dome. It may be that Neverdie wants to dedicate this dome entirely to hunters, then i would understand, it's his property after all. However, this dome is one of the best for mining for mid-level players who are able to defend themselves, so I do not know what to think.
Today i just logged out in frustration, it took me 2+ hours just to cover ~18% percents of dome. To cover entire dome it would be 11+ hours at the same pace. When it normally was taking me maximum 6hours to do it before. I think numbers speak for themselves, in addition to enduring heavy hunting losses, you have to waste tons of time as well. Not to mention that mining with anything less than oa103 would be a suicide...
Anyway, i would like to hear other people's opinions on this. (Especially those who mined there before and after the spawn increased). Maybe Neverdie will read this thread as well and will clarify his reasoning behind the changes.
