generator range booster

[Lt. William L. Calley]

They need to add back wires or make the range way bigger for generators. this effectively kills mid game with a decent sized base or creates gaps in your electrical grid where you might want to place something like in my case . They need to add a transformer or something that has its own bubble and when placed in a bubble of a generator its own bubble now is a electrical connection

EDIT:
So apparently you can't even chain together generators to increase the range because in the infinity wisdom of overpaid scammers they decided to put a generator limit per a LARGE area


I am on official i cant use mods

they use bluetooth connection its not magic...

Magic. Since when is water transported by Bluetooth?

I have always built my power stations far away from my base so I don't have to listen to those noisy generators running. Now you have to put it in the middle of each building if you want power. Ruined the game with this change.

except they dont make noise at all anymore... they are silent so i hide em under stairs or behind walldoors

whats even the point in stopping people from making big bases? if we are forced into tiny areas we run out of room.

Big bases needs to stop. Period. It causes massive stability issues, trapping spawn points, blocking caves,notes, and drops, enables pillar spamming and blocking resources. People need to play the game properly, with small to medium bases, and stop making gigantic mega structures and stop mass collecting animals like some sort of fcked up Pokemon game.

If I would be a dev, I would def limit the amount of structure a player can have, maybe depending on the tribe's size. Also limit the amount of dinos you can tame maybe you could have 20 herbivore, 20 carnivore, it should be more than enough.

Lastly, it's funny that everyone always complains that the game trailers are not accurate while no one even try to play the game as the devs intended in the trailers.

well if you used any overbreeded dinos in a:se dont forget they were breeder in those big bases so dont complain. With limit of 40 dinosaurs as you saying, its great you are no dev cuz you would never be able to do all bosses on your own. And last thing devs want people to collect all sort of dinos/creatures in the game if not they would not put event colours for people to tame them during events.

I saw somewhere that you could have up to 3 generators within each others range, effectively extending your range. The 4th one though has to be ridiculously far away, so only 3 would work for range extending.

ya thats one of the issues

the big problem with this is that it horribly punishes people for not being the server alpha. The reason for this is multifaceted but basically:

it punishes you for having a large base but we dont have cryopods so in order to actually defend all your tames you have to have not just one but several large bases leading to a really bad catch 22 if you build out in the open.

It destroys you for building out in the open in general. Your options are cave or bust because you need a defensible position where you can keep your best stuff and your tames where attacking you could be a slow process. Instead of having to spread defenses out over a very large area you can instead concentrate them since raiders will have to advance through the cave in a predictable way. 3 generators per 60 regular foundations for a cave base is a gods pleanty to set up all the defenses you could ever need realistically. For a base on the surface though. Not gonna happen. Not only are you limited by the gennie cap but you are limited by the turret cap as well and have to spread them out more making your core base more vulnerable. This is a problem because unless you are the strongest tribe on the server, you will never ba allowed to build in any artifact or pearl cave. You dont get to have a reasonably defendable base because one tribe is allowed to just own the entire map and by doing so also lock you out of boss progression as well.

I play PVE so everyone has big bases making this an issue for everyone but I can now see it being a big issue for big PVP bases and not being able to power some turrets.

without big base on PvE... there will be no breeders and no traders...
you will not get gift from ppl, you will never buy any dino, you will need spend years to get your own boss army.
and big base really isnt issue... try some ASE server with big bases... ofc, server save can make lag, but thats all. and it is because of server quality.
and ofc.. it is because of poor coding of this game

They should also add pipes back in, at least vertical pipes because now my taps just sit on the ground magically shooting water into the raised crop plots.

Not true, you don't need a big base to breed creatures.

If chose a few specific breeds then your right. Only start needing large bases if doing all kinds of dinos. Or the large ones :-) 2 brontos would need room dozens of carnos would need.

show me how you fit 150+ Wyv females in small base and how you make it comfortable for breeding
but ok.. show me at least where you put 200 Rex females in tiny base...
you never breed anything for mutations, right?

because you are not breeding one pair and wait.. you wanna get right mutation from every breeding... if you will live in tiny base and you will breed one pair to get max dmg stat... then you will finish your bloodline after 100 years... maybe

Ya one breeding pair wont cut it I agree. But depends on persons view on size though. Some think a 20 x 20 foundation base is big. I see that as a chicken coop lol My base offline was over 90 x 250 and if recall had 5 floors ABOVE water. And 3 levels below it :-) 150 is actually a lot I think. But can see 25? But more you have the easier it does become to get what you want. I raised many different animals in the real world. And I have to admit the more breeding pairs I had the better lines I could breed. And im sure in some way its same in game.

Though I did know guy who did really good breeding and once got his main lines he culled most till had like 10 or so breeding pairs in stead of the... "just a guess never counted.." 100 pairs he had before. And he still got very good out comes. So I dont know maybe can do ok with small bases and breeding. But I will agree larger the base for breeding pairs the better.
