I'm not going to argue with you, I just won't believe you until someone shows me something more than just a claim. Especially because

Custom HUDs have been known for displaying the wrong metal count.
hmm, that probably was the case. i was using toonhud though. what could go wrong?

That was a lot.
I still don't see why it was changed to such a drastically lowered cost, it wasn't a problem for me, i know no one who had a problem with it.

Valve has had bugs with their creations, and they're paid professionals. What could go wrong with fan-made creations, from people who have mediocre experience with these things? No clue.:undyne:
It's supposed to be 50 metal for a teleporter for a long time now. Teleporters used to cost 125.

Eureka Effect decreases teleporter cost. It's a tiny 25 now per teleporter, and only 100 metal to upgrade, which is insane, especially on 5CP maps where the spawn is constantly moving. You just place an exit, wait for it to build, recall to the new spawn, slap down the entrance to let it build itself, then teleport out to the finished exit all in a matter of seconds.

What's better is that the construction speed penalty only applies when first building something. Relocating it is not slower than another wrench, so you can easily deal with the slow speed at first, and then move that gear up to where it's more dangerous without issue.

Just because someone gets paid does not make them better than the community. Many games have many mods which are of a much higher quality than the professionally released product. For example, every Bethesda game.

Of course. Some fans are more qualified than the devs. But for the majority-- they aren't. My point being, if even the people who are supposed to be good at making things for the game can mess up, of course anyone else can.

Good question

I bet you just time travel back to when teleporter needed 125 metal before the update

And suddenly travel back to present and put the discussion

In other words, you are a time traveler

my friend swears up and down that teleporters always cost 50 metal and i was stupid, but i KNEW that it used to cost 125 metal. i also had faint memories of people complaining that was too expensive.
