Increased spawn in dome 18 is making mining insane

Of course i do understand that Neverdie can't please everyone. However i was more looking to understand the reasons behind the changes (thanks Klod). Well, let's hope it goes back to normal after CL events are over. Because (imho) from an economic viewpoint, more taxes would be generated from actively mined dome, than from the one dedicated to hunters (who are almost absent) and weekend events.

And thanks for your comments people, highly appreaciated.

3 comments from a CND Miner :

1/
If you loose 100-200 peds hunting your way to the domes while mining ... just don't hunt. My usual repair bill after 600 bombs and 600 probes trough all CND domes is around 50 peds (with Gremlin + 5B and including, extractor and fap decay). Take also into consideration that i always walk on CND so i take a lot more hits from mobs compared to a "runner".

2/
I know that dome 18 is full of nice markup ores and enmats but you can find the smae ones in other domes. If you have problems with cornos and argos eating your armor and avoiding your bullets just change dome.

3/
Intensive bombing in a single dome aiming to totally cover it may not be the best way to mine on CND

It's a tough balancing act for sure..

Perhaps I need to start announcing when the Cornoanterions Dome will be Maxed for a couple of Days so hunters can time thier visits.

Spawn in 18 will be lowered for now, but Corno's will be kept at reasonable levels...

Things will Be a lot Better When CND gets its Long awaited Stadium

It's mentioned a lot, but do you know anything about the stadium ?? Maybe together with the CryEngine update ?

Thank you for responce Neverdie

Yes, i think announcing the changes would be great idea and help to plan hunts/mining runs in advance. And thank you for lowering the spawn again, i understand that it costs a lot of money, and i really appreaciate that you react to people's requests.

And of course, good luck with the stadium, i'm very interested to see how it will turn out

Impossible to please us all, but:

This would be great! Maybe arrange for some pilots to stand by for taking hunters up to CND and miners down to planet while the dome(s) is/are with high density. And vice versa when the high-spawn time frame is over.

For me CND has really taken a turn for the worse when it comes to me being able to mine. Thus, I was glad to see this thread, since I did pm Neverdie what I thought last night anyway. I am getting tired of the maxed spawns, domes 4, 8, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 are now nearly impossible to mine without taking a shit ton of ammo or decays. The past few nights I have found myself running between the same domes (1,2,3,5,6,7). The way I see it, Neverdie really needs to consider his outlook to miners once again. Don't get me wrong, the past couple months were decent mining in almost every dome, but that has changed. I do not live up at CND to be forced to hunt, I am there to mine and I pay a good amount of the bills up there by doing so. Once again Neverdie needs to realize who generates his income, pays his rent and puts food on his table (cause here's a little hint: IT ISNT THE HUNTERS.) If this continues I will be once again forced to fly down to the planet and give my hard earned peds to another land owner. Wake up ND, I think hunting and mining can live in a decent balance, but when a miner cannot make it 3 bombs into a dome without death in any direction, something needs to be done. Domes 16, 17 and 18 have been more than fucking crazy lately. No one needs that many goddamn daspletor in the dome sitting around all week hoping one of the uber players will come kill like 5 of them, leaving the other hundred or so wasting fertalizer and my time/patience.

Sorry but i fully disagree ...
When i do a mining run on CND i never shoot a single ammo. I don't have any probems with the current high spawn. You are all blaming Neverdie but i did not saw any of you thank him for removing exa's from dome 7 !

I see a lot of miners complaining about spawn on CND but never on the planet's LAs.

There IS a way to mine through those domes YOU just have to find it. If other miners are able to do they job why not you. If you loose peds due to hunting your way through th domes JUST DONT HUNT !!!

Now i'll stop the bla bla and go back to domes 20-19-18-7-9 to find the claims you left me there ...

Have a nice day !

Okay Domes have been rebalanced again... May take awhile for some of the Spawn to be culled.

Miners may check the fertilizer Room and post here or PM me with further comments
