CMM Composites might be the Death of the entire Trailblaizers Patch

[Einar Donarsson]

Greetings.

Now according to @Paul_Crowther, the resupply has increased but the supply is still extremely limited.

I am battling a number of Health issues which gives me a lot of (free) time to try and colonize my chosen System COL 285 SECTOR VK-K B23-5
Yet even with all that (free) Time i will not be able to get the CMM composites required to establish even the first Port.

The largest Supply i could find near me was 107 units, with over 50000 CMM Composites needed, that would be nearly FIVE HUNDRED Runs back and forth for this one single commodity (if its all there 100% of the time which it is not). Hundreds if not Thousands of Colonisation-Attempts will fail if this does not get addressed quickly.

We need a DRASTIC increase of supply and resupply on CMM Composites or The Colony Gameloop along with the entire Patch might just die very soon and with that, your profits from recently released ARX Items.

Thanks for considering and have a pleasant Day.

My Doomometer is detecting something nearby....

Yes, every legitimate concern is a Doomthread nowadays.

 

[Brecken Shackleford]

CMM Composites should be considered a rare commodity at this point.

 

[Zador]

I'm now seeing larger total numbers of CMM composites and larger regen amounts than last night, so it has improved. Of course there's likely more competition as the day goes on to counteract that but right now feels like a sweet spot I'm powering through the requirement.
[edit] well I would be but having written this I've started getting various adders stopping play

 

[Vorticity]

Adders of the black variety? That's what I'm seeing.

 

[Disemboweled Ego]

They fixed it (the lack of CMM composites) already, surprisingly fast too.

 

[Tassier]

The numbers have been increased today, here's a view of the top amounts to be found...

Commodity search | Elite:Dangerous | INARA

The companion site for Elite:Dangerous with the game database, market data, trade routes, outfitting, engineers, blueprints, crafting, Thargoid war, squadrons, logbooks, galleries, galaxy information and much more...

inara.cz

 

[Guatnao]

Still low... very low....

 

[alexzk]

Did you try to finish CG going ? It seems it will deliver CMM enough if finished. But who cares, right ?

 

[IstvaanDCIV]

You need to be a bit more clever about searching for them. Don't just rely on the Commodities search function on Inara. Most of that stuff will be gone by the time you arrive. Instead, look for Refinery surface stations in systems that are in a Boom state.

Guys, when Operation Ida repaired the Oracle (and the Pleiades), we had to source stuff from 300-400 ly away. We had special jumpacondas that sacrificed cargo space for jumprange to do the long range hauling. You can't expect to have the commodities one unengineered class C FSD away

Boom or Civil Liberty - or ideally, both.
(And pretty much any other state except Expansion, Terrorism or Drought is bad)

 

[Brrokk]

I'd guess that it's because of the sheer number of colonisations all started on the same day. Later, things will smooth out a bit.

No sorry, not a valid argument. We are not at operation IDA here. Its system colonization. A timer is running and once 28 days are over we'll loose everything. CMM composites are nowhere to be found except in some carrier in an irrelelvant quantitiy. Personally i'm going for an outpost and still i'll be lucky if i'll gather 1/3 of the required CMM composites if FDEV don't fix it urgently. No difference after they announced to have "greatly improved the spawn rate".

So...why did you start until you had full carrier of the CMM ? It's your fault.

Kind of feels like Odyssey launch, people want to invest their time, but it doesn't feel like it's worth it. Spending most of my time in solo waiting for the commodity market to refresh just to get a few materials. Can't make use of my squadrons fleet carrier because no time slots. If I eventually finish the outpost construction, I will pop by your system and help out.

 

[Jaffz]

But but there's no grind or it's supposed to be difficult or something

 

[Martind Forlon]

Starting system colonisation with building of coriolis is either very brave, or very foolish decision. Personally I do not feel to fit any of those cathegories, so simple outpost with 5k of CMM need is perfectly fine for me in the time limited 1st station build period. Further constructions should have no time limit.
