Crafting efficiency #672

Open ludovi71 opened 5 years ago

ludovi71 commented 5 years ago

Since it is pretty hard for new player to catch up. What if. More professions player knew, the less efficient he would be at each of them. Meaning, if he only focused on one thing, for example woodworking, he would be able to craft his products at maximum efficiency, while someone who learned both engineering and woodworking, would have his crafting efficiency smaller.

This idea could also support players who provide raw products such as vegetables, ores... because it often happens that cooks harvest their own crops, or engineers smelt their own bars, which kind of ruin the cooperative and economy part of this game.

I hope its understandable what i meant by this :)

after 0.8 where you cannot unlearn professions, this change will increase the movement between servers, so I'm against it.

ludovi71 commented 5 years ago

Why do you think ?

elfl0rd commented 5 years ago

old players with multiple specialization have too pain to learn new specialization. Easiest way - just join to populated server at late game and play.

ludovi71 commented 5 years ago

You can't just join new server late game and do the late game stuff right away, since you dont have the house and food that older player have

All i am trying to say is there are, and always will be ways for veterans to have huge advantages in game, They will always find the way to exploit the system, and this idea could make it harder for them while not affecting other players

elfl0rd commented 5 years ago

You try to "just" make game harder for players created community on server. They've earned their position, and I don't understand why they should be fined to please newcomers.

Sorry i meant to say more "Challenging" since lot of player stop playing a game when they've tried everything in it and its too easy for them
