Point is, research is too rare. Please bring back the old research.,

With every update, I play a new game and make a record of the Research discoveries.
After 1 hour of play during a 201 game, I unlocked the following in order:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1142254611
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1142255208

At this point I stopped playing because I had already tested everything I had wanted to see and discovered some interesting bugs. As for the research, it seems fine to me. I know where to go to get more augment tech and I had already spelunked to the deep caverns and so there would be plenty of research material to be found I'm sure.
Research isn't as easy as it used to be, but it's not exactly difficult either. It just requires a little more work to acquire. I have no complaints and as you can see, I can research the required tech to reach the other planets within 1 hour of play.
Be patient, work harder and you'll be fine... or take a break and wait for the devs to revise the research system.

I'm pretty sure research is completely random.. I read they are revamping research in 2.0 so you can create whatever you like.

Looks like you got lucky there buddy. On my current run I believe the only things that for some reason refuse to come out of research boxes seem to be the habitat, large shuttle, medium storage and trade platform, all which happen to be the exact 4 things that I need in order to go freely explore. I got tanks, filters, augments, batteries generators everything else. But these...

Maybe I did, but I have found so far with every new game after an update that I have always had just as much 'luck'. I usually play for as long as is necessary in order to unlock every tech and I have never had a playthrough that resulted in a missing tech. 201 is the first time I didn't bother, since I was more interested in the couple of bugs I discovered and there didn't seem to be any change to research.
