GC RT A miner infestation

you know what my "favorite" ship to fight is? chlor. Oh how I love being pwned by a spam off chlor. It just makes my day :)

Yeah... funny how giving a race a bunch of easily spammed ships makes them desirable.

A miner is too easy, thats why when I had the chance to switch races, I chose something more hard, I`m a guardian but still A miner is alriight if your big on making money but I`m more about have big and powerful ships.

meh, only until food gets cheap then they will find something else to do..

i predict a collective infestation :)) i saw many ppl restarting as collective, as i`ve seen many restarting as aminer in the past weeks

fAir play to the miners, they;ve been ragged on for years now

though hokos and lyths irritate me

haha, and Maraudian is right balance has been brought back,lots of colls now too

People do too much complaining...

Too few agri empires, too many mineral emps.. wah wah wah... Maybe, just maybe people need to realize the market is going to move over long periods.

yes market isnt balanced yet
but the A.miner industry is by far overly productive in minerials & thanks to one goods producer

Food does stablise but has randomly been going up & down this past 2 months maybe 3 now.

Ore is the only thing not in major production anymore

However the server is getting more rich & i think we do need another UW to reset things slightly.

Back in the old days we use to have the same market then later on all the minerial A.miner & Goods A.miner Disappeared. Part of the reason why they disappeared was new races introduced to the game, some changed races, others left the game like so many due over time. Then A.miner became later on one of the worst fighting races & along with prices being low all the time it was less productive

i find it when the minerial market doesnt sell there is an issue with A.miner giving up on a race who isnt making money anymore cause no one is on high demand of buying. So if the prices do get to low i think its a sign we might have less A.miner which we might end back up with a dry market. However the new ships for A.miner are helpful & some players now see A.miner as a better fighting race & might bite there teeth during these bad A.miner times.

no matter what A.miner heavily rely on the market for their money period
if prices are to low or to high they are hurt & if stuff doesnt sell or N/A then that is also a problem for A.miner

A.miner is a vital race to the market & the game. Losing A.miner i dont think is in our best interest. Having a dry market hurt some empires in the past & also caused the start of the black market as a fall back system to keep the game from dying.

I agree. A year ago right before the miner update minerals were scarce. There were only a few of us miners at the time. But a couple days after the update it was obvious that a lot of people were restarting as miners so it wasn`t hard to see what was coming. Thats why I went back to being a n00b viral. It took me around one week to max out my cash starting out as a mineral miner a year ago...How long does it take now? And it`s not that miner is easy to kill, it`s just that the lack of talent of the people playing the race. That really goes for any race though. It sure is nice to have a full market every day all day long:)

it`s going well now. There is no shortage of pretty much anything on the markets now-a-days so a person starting the game can get stuck right in, as opposed to last year they had to wait for hours and hours to even get teh minerals to build their first destroyer.

Thats just my observation...oh and cheap minerals FTW :P

but the market actually working in a balanced manner is a good sign that im fairly proud of , viral and collective destroyed the balance for a very long time

he market still isnt balanced to what it Should be

Aminers suck :) Easy to kill mmmm

pff after i restarted as A.Miner i saw many players doing it too, i dont know if its only my illusion, or i havent noticed it before because i didnt pay so much attention to the A.Miner race

I like it like this, cheap and affordable minerals :)

Well A.Miner is by far the easiest race to play.
:D
