Please bring back proper EPC mining.

[IceIceBergy]

I did notice that when playing lvl 5 missions, nobody wants to be the driller, for a good reason, you cant epc mining anymore because after the nerf you will louse 90% of the material depending where the vein is ( because ore will fly arround in high speed, most of they even glithing out of the map ).

Also, driller is already an non welcome class by default if the player dont know how to play ( it seems to atract the worse type of players for some reason ), in my sessions I had to kick out from the team 6 times, all of they the noob was drillers, for diferent reasons, friendly fire, because he thinks he needs to make pipes or holes and destroy pipes other players was building etc, freazing other players by porpose, destroying other drillers holes, etc, etc, etc, its already an class that is not welcome, hurting the epc mining is just getting it worse. As it stand today, its better to have an additional gunner in the team then a driller.

I know it was discussed before, but I think devs really needs to listen to this and undo this change, roolback it into when ores just fall in one place when epc mining. If it makes the mod too op, then remove the mod, eather make it allways enabled, or replace as an overclock, just dont remove the funcionality that is fundamental to make driller an necessary add to the team.

I'll call that bs.
Stuff doesn't "glitch out of existance". It flies away and is gone from the mind of the players.

No class is really welcome if the player doesn't know how to handle it, not that driller would be particulary difficult to play.

So you kicked a few trolls and deem the class bad.

That said, i wouldn't care if the mining part (and that alone) becomes an OC.

So if something is op, make it default? Not how balancing works.

EPC mining should not be a thing in game at all. I very rarely meet with a decent EPC driller who not ruin the game for others. Mining should be MINING for all.

[Ser Pounce]

Be grateful they actually never removed it, because they could have. In two occasions.

TCF is not a mining tool, it's a weapon modification. The mining part is just a bonus and it should stay that way.

That right there, that's pretty much the definition of horse pucky, my friend. A Driller is worthless unless he's an EPC/TCF miner?

Personally, I think the whole OP story is just a ruse... to bellyache about EPC/TCF mining again.

[Kitsune Dzelda]

:( I know I have a blast when playing with my friends...

Sometimes we dont even go to the hospital afterwards.

[Scuzz MB]

I've played a long time and a lot of missions and absolutely nothing in the OP's discussion relates to any Deep Rock reality I've experienced.

[V0lcanF1re]

is still there, less effective try get used to it.

[JeanneOskoure]

TCF should never have mined minerals in the first place.

[NeloDante]

If nobody wants to play the strongest class in the game, it's on them, but don't attach the "EPC as mining tool" to the class because it simply is not true.

You're so wrong it hurts. This is what we get because the devs didn't remove it on time, some people actually thinking like OP. What a massive mistake to not remove it completely.

[King Fossil]

I thought people were over this by now.

Also just saying in advance, if any of you guys suggest removing my ability to kill volcanoes I'm going to fight you. You've been warned.

You don't "kill" something that has no life and you can still destroy it with C4.

Use your pickaxe and mine it, 4head
/s

[marcusaddamsson]

There needs to be a stat somewhere... Call it the Darwin Progression. You only get further along by finding new ways to kill yourself... jumping off cliff, pickaxing lava spout, pickaxing a lava worm, jumping "into" det/sploder... Totally undoable, but it'd be fun to see. "Wow. I've been killed by resupply pods 10 times?!?"

tbh TCF mining just shouldn't be a thing period.
The devs said "Hey the driller shouldn't be able to mine minerals with the drill because he'd be way faster and it'd mess with team dynamics!"
Then they added TCF mining, which allows drillers to mine minerals and be way faster which ultimately messes with team dynamics.

Ya'll can keep your environment damage, but it shouldn't touch minerals.
