Silo's exploit that need to get fixed!

[[Slot currently empty]]

I was playing on Amerish this morning and did build a base in the middle of map, over Raven's Landing.

Cortium in that area is rare and you have to get down the hill for ressuplying it.

When Vanu's failed to kick me out of there, even when I was in their territories, some of them switched over an NC's character and builded silos next to all cortium nodes in my area.

We can't damage friendly silos (that would not be a solution) and can't basically do nothing against it.

Could devs find a way to fix this exploit? Maybe make cortium spawn somewhere else when silo is build over it? Make silo explode when is to close of cortium spawn?

PLEASE FIX THIS ♥♥♥♥! I can't even investigate and report them!

That is exploiting and unintended way of getting rid of an enemy base,,,,,

Edit : If you want to make my base die cause of lack of cortium do it with your faction!

Yelling to allies '' Don't build silo next to cortium spawn or it won't respawn''
Vanu answer ''It's the point''

I have a screenshot of those silos!

Also I had already think about it as strategy to kill a base! (I mean break their cortium supply)
But I would'nt had done it like they do by exploiting!

Also you would be surprised at what people could do just to kill bases!
Some of them are willing to wait as stalker 30 minutes until you leave for cortium, just to kill 1 module!

I wouldn't consider it an exploit, its not like they permanently restricted you from ever getting cortium. You can still find plenty of cortium around the map and just like everybody else, you will just have to move around those obstacles and search around. I've been in construction since day 1 and this has never even been a problem for me. Its a grind but you'll be able to find 2k cortiums around and grow from there. Take the time to move away from your base area, dont just stay restricted in the hex.

How swtching faction/character to take advantage is'nt exploiting?

I'm gonna tell it to a Huge outfit, then they will all switch faction/character and prevent enemies of finding cortium in their zone....

Let's do this!

Sounds like something that should be fixed!

why would anyone wast that much time to destroy a base? That just seems odd. Submit a ticket on tthe website. Nothing will happen to them, but maybe they'll patch cortium fields and put a small no build zone ontop of cortium sites.

I just unlocked the rank 6 loyalty bomb for constructs. That thing does good work against construction. Would take 2 people with bombs to blow up a silo I think. so 40 seconds to take down a base versus... A couple of hours if you use silos to block resources?

It did happen in a low population server (Emerald in afternoon) so I could keep the base for hours! Then about cortium bomb there is a disadvantage... they can be countered!
My base setup is build in a way to prevent easy bomb placement, some times I can even make my silo unnaccessible on foot, unless you can fly over walls!
In this case it was over a hill only accessible by long walk, air or turbo vehicule!
Have you ever tryed to place cortium bombs in a defended bases? Be ready to die as ♥♥♥♥!
