Expedition Station is TOO BIG and UNWIELDY

[Hykril Tynyx]

Just going to repeat what some of the people are already saying/reporting/experiencing. Pal Expedition Station is TOO BIG and UNWIELDY, even when seemingly within acceptable available space. It's taking up nearly 1/3 of your total base's space and even though I've cleared quite some room to try and plop it down... It still doesn't want to be built because of some weird janky hit-box causing overlapping issues despite having seemingly enough space and free wiggle room.

P.S. And yes, I've already submitted my feedback on their site.

I had to move my Breeding Farm to another base just to fit it in my main one, lol

[MrZero]

i hear ya. i thought my base had a tumor. i placed it up in the mountains with the ore and coal base.

I have mixed feelings on the expedition station because yet it is VERY big and takes up a lot of room, but also considering what you get out of it I almost see that as a balancing factor.
Think about it this way, it's passive dungeon grinding, and some of the best stuff in game is collected from dungeons.

Doesn't give enough to warrant half your base. I'm doing the second max tier in 8 minutes and get maybe 10ish of all the rewards and only 1 on some. There is nowhere in my main base I can put it aside from high up on a platform, but it has a gigantic ass underground portion so it's taking up two levels.

Agree it is way too big.

Until they make a change, or if they don't make a change...add an additional base to your world settings options and just give it its own dedicated space.

No one is going to judge you for it.

[Bullslayer]

yup agreed, way to big, having a hard time finding a spot for it, would make more sense if it was like a map table or something you could place in a building.

Worst part of this building is that you need to build it to level up you base, at point before you get access for second base. And you can't build it outside, game don't allow it. So plan where you start building your first base accordinly, or you might get to the point, where you just need to remove half of you base just to build this.

I was cackling when I saw that. Between space and fighting wandering pals, that was frustrating.

Deleted it right after lmao.

Damn right it's too big. Not worth putting in at this point in time. Takes up room required for essentials.
The worst thing is WHEN you're required to build it. I mean, you can't use it till attack power is 25K! That won't happen until mid-game - at the very least.

[The_Outsider]

I tried putting it on the roof and the underside completely blocked the room below.

I don't have anywhere else to put it.

It's one thing for it to be big as a matter of balance for space. It's a whooooooooooole other ballgame for it to be SO big you literally can't build the damn thing because it's always on top of something. This thing is way, way, WAY too big, or at the very least restrictive on how you can build it.

You can have 10 bases instead of 3. Who cares about one of the 7 new being taken for that.

It's a requirement for base upgrading now. So while you can just build it then remove it, the problem is the thing is so massive and unwieldy just doing that is taxing.

I actually didn't know it was also required for an upgrade, since I'd luckily surpassed that stage before the new patch. This makes the situation even worse - such a costly dead weight just to progress.

Oh, well that sucks then haha yeah guess building it on a floating platform then removing it is the option. Should just be an optional building.

EDIT: Nevermind that other guy is 'tarded. Base level is shared. Literally just plot it down in any of the ton of new bases
