I respect your opinion a lot, Stealthie, but seriously... Only half of those apostrophes are necessary.

At least he uses punctuation. Kids nowadays don't even bother using periods. If they would just talk the way they type/text, most of them would die of from oxygen deprivation. They deny natural selection! Legislature must be passed!!!

Yep! To confirm, we're investigating the material/data drops now and will have more information soon.
Drat! And I'd just gone and dragged my pitchfork out of storage too

I type how I talk and get grief over using words like yer and ye all the time...makes me wanna do it more just to wind them up. I should probably be quiet now ^
So you were really goind to nerf material drop at lost place and increase the grind...

Thanks Will, it's good to know that this is still subject to further consideration. There are certain data types that would become EXTREMELY hard to farm if this were implemented as stated, but that's not to say that I don't also see the reason why bases are dropping too many MEFs. Perhaps the drop rate of MEF could be decreased and the drop rate of other lower data types increased?
Yes, please leave it as it is rather than the exception to the rule. There are more pressing concerns right now such as the exploitation of Wing Missions to effectively allow for massive credit transfers to non contributers, Multicrew allowing payments for non contribution and rep/ranking speed being too high and fast.
Glad they are re-thinking it. Peace.
There's nothing natural about selection any more, it seems the more detriment you are to society, the more rights you have. FML.
Circling the toilet bowl I tell ya.
Well, here is an idea from other games for you Fdev.
If you think giving 1 mat per drop is still too much, and the grind is not enough, you could introduce something like material shards.
So for example you give the player one iron shard per drop, and when he has collected 10 shards, he can convert it into one iron.
Or maybe the drops contain iron dust, and if the player collects 100 iron dust, he gets one iron.
Hope that helps, dear developer. Long live THE GRIND.

That's not really an improvement, though.
You seem like the kind of person who runs a red light, plows down some old lady, and then demands she reimburse you for the damage to your bumper. Just sayin...
that's about right, until you question that shred of value and ... join the resistance!!
MultiCrew is (*&^(( all use for anything else. A few credit transfers is hardly game breaking and rep ranking is too high?
I''s imagine the bugs are way more important? Not showing 'wanted' when entering a system you're wanted in. The message board is a mess. Combat reticule and ship triangle indicators dissappearing. Shooting at wanted ships results in bounties. All these are way more important than the above. (In my opinion)

Not really re-thinking. 3 instead of 1 was a long standing bug. What Will confirmed basically they will do a pass over spawning tables after first feedback and telemetry.
Doesn't mean it will be easier to get mats. More likely people still will loath way it is done.
