Badlands Mining Complexes needed

What is it going to take to get more mining complexes added to Badlands. Combines on the server can not grow without more. The 18 that exist are held tight by the few large combines. People are getting frustrated and the game has become a weekly routine of combine conflict, black ops Darknet and a few more events. There is no movenent or opportunity for growth on Badlands. 

If the answer is Badlands needs more players, that is likely not going to happen if people keep getting frustrated and quit the server or game. For the health of the server we need more combines to grow and be competitive. For that to happen, one of the things we need is more Mining complexes.

Having an opportunity for the smaller combines, newer players and players not able to spend big money, to band together grow a stronger combine and hold thier own on the server against the handful of existing large combines would be good for even the larger combines, it will bring more competition.

Players on the Badlands are refering to the servers as being dead, dying, stuck, dominated by a few big combines. Heck if more MC's were added and even if the big combines tried to grab them, it would spread thier defense so smaller combines could attack and take one over and add some excitement to back the game again.

I don't know if anyone else feels the same way, but this is my opinion for what its worth.

We sure do did more MC's  or at least competive challenges for the Combines. But what is there to challenge excep Depots, Repositories, which do not benifit the combine. Is Plarium ignoring the Badlands.  A friend of mine suggested that all players on Plarium Play Badlands take a couple weeks off, spend no money, ignore the game and that all members of all combine send a message to Plarium to see why their disregard for Badlands continues and what they are going to do about it.

I also agree with this post we need more mining complexes to drop on Badlands. Gee Wiz give us something to fight over. There are 18 mining complexs in badlands and over 700 in Highlands I believe. Are we Plarium Orphans or what? I want more.

It's about time. I am a small player now trying to make it on my own. I might be able to join a small combime but am too small for one of the large combines that has mining complex and are at higher level with good boosts. I feel like I am sitting on sidelines and not able to get into big game. We need more growth opportunity on Badlands for the smaller players. If you can't break into the top you are stuck. Plarium do I keep playing or do I pack it in, you tell me.

Commanders I agree that more mines are welcome. Do not worry as Devs are monitoring the games and servers frequently. My personal opinion is new mines might come in the near future so stay tuned please!!

Plarium, I totally agree with the above comments that we need more Mines in the Badlands. This issue has been ignored, bypassed, or forgotten long engough. As you can see there are several Commanders from different combines saying the same thing.  By placing more Mines within the Badlands, You (Plarium) will not only benifit but it will also give the Commanders and Combines a new challenge. It will also help create new members for you.

Although I can understand the sentiment of wanting more mining complexes, I think one needs to look at in a different way. I am sure there is a correlation between the number of active players and the number of MC's. Make no mistake that through the years Plarium has finetuned their model of earning money across all their games. Looking from their perspective, allowing too many MC's in Soldiers (or similar objects in their other games which operate on the same programming engine) automatically means less fighting over MC's which means less losing units. The business model is such that you have to lose units in order for the employees of Plarium having a paycheck. Without large fights the spending will come to an end which terminates their business. Disagree with me all you want, but please keep in mind that what is entertainment for you is the livelyhood of the company that provides said entertainment.  The excuse given by the moderator is total hogwash as adding more MC's is not a matter for developers, it is a management decision.

Whether Plarium out of greed pulls the financial legs of those who do invest money in this game is a different discussion. I myself do not spend a dime anymore as the price is a bit too stiff in comparison to large games like e.g. GTA V. Such games are way more complicated to program and require a lot better serverside hardware. Yet, in comparison, GTA V is a fraction of the price Plarium asks for their "offers".

We are constantly making analytics, Soldiers, to be aware of the situation.

New mines will be added as soon the server is ready for them.

Can you please define what you meen, " when the server is ready" please explain as everyone whould like to know why. You are a service provider and we are the customers, is it too much to ask for the reasons why ?

Regards

Madtoolz

We add mines taking into account the progress of the players on the server.

Anastasia thank you for your response. Can you be more specific as to what is meant by "progress of players on the server"?  Is that number of players at or above a certain level, number of players with cobra bases, number of players that have spent over a certain amount of money. or someting else?

If we want more mines what do we need to focus on, what is Plarium looking for?

Regards

Sorry for not being clear enough. When the analytics shows us that the players on the server are out of mines, we will add the new ones.

Some people clearly are as daft as a rock. Plarium is running a business and it is not necessarily in their interest to gift objects in the game. They'd rather see people fight over already existing objects as that means units loss which equals spending. Without the intention to defend Plarium, as I think the price levels (in case someone wants to do a little extra) are way to steep, I do get their business model. Everything is based on analytics and Plarium has had years to finetune the games to get the most out of it. They are not a philantropists who want to provide you entertainment because they feel for you. They provide entertainment as it makes their cashregister go "ka-ching". Jeff Bezos did not become a billionaire by gifting his employees an above average wage either. He squeezed the last drop of effort out of them at the lowest cost = maximum return on investments for him. It really is not rocket science, now is it?

You are point on MadToolz, the few existing mines are tightly held and as a result very little combat takes place over mines. Plarium go back and look at how poor the participation has been in any mine related event.  They have become a non event.

Not sure what "players on the server are out of mines" means, but it seems like there has been a stalemate for quite awhile. A few stronger combines hold all the mines, and not even the minimun number needed to achieve level 20, the mines had to be shared to get to where they are. The existing mines are held too tighly to be taken by smaller combimes needing to hold them in order to level up thier  headquarters. To me that sounds like the players have run out of mines on the server. But then, I have no idea what your analytics are looking at.

Grover I understand that Plarium is in business to make money and they have experience at doing just that. However, to make money on a sustainable basis they need to also give customers what they want or they will go elsewhere. Also Plarium should understand it is much easier to keep a customer than it is to go out and find a new one.

The problem is that the mines that are held now have that much defence in them that they can not be taken, because no one is going to loose billions of offence for little gain that a mine gives, So a lot more mines in Badlands would be a good thing, It would give more insentive for everyone to enjoy the game even more, the top combines need no more mines but the lower combines need something for sure.

Fire you are spot on, people have left our combine and the game because it has gotten so stale. Having more events to just click buttons is not keeping people interested in this game. I would rather stay here but I have asked people that have left, to let me know if they find a better game enviroment, at this point I would consider it.

At this point I just dare Plarium to add more mining centers, I tripple dog dare you guys to do that. I know you won't because it would screw up your little charts and graphs on how the game should unfold.

We have transferred your request to the team for further consideration, Commanders. 

Thanks for your understanding.

Any progress on getting more mining complexes on Badlands? I'm not seeing any action from Plarium.
