Im so fucking tired of the devs buffering liberation progress. There are at this moment 20k people wasting their time on hellmire whos progress has remained at a stagnant >5% and dropping, while literally 690 people on Charbal 6 are inching more progress. This manual control of the numbers kills all immersion and willingness for me to play on anything but the most enjoyable planets, I didnt add to any progression the hours I spent on no visibility Erata, just wasted my time when I could have been playing anywhere else or anything else. I know I'm in the minority but the galactic war is what excited me about the game when I bought it, and the only thing that keeps me coming back after having unlocked everything I want. I dont mind the back and forth of liberation then defense then liberation then defense on the same planet, what bothers me is there is a nigger cooking the numbers, ensuring progress only occurs at a predetermined place and rate. I appreciate the idea that the galactic campaign is tied to the release of new content, but if the new content isnt ready that should not hold up the galactic war and it really feels like that last "defend 10 planets" was to buy them time. They gave us the kill 2bil bugs, an actual achievable community based challenge, the community rose to the occasion, what do we get in return? An impossible order only mathematically completable literally in the last 12 hours and every planet buffered. It seems now at least the automaton front is allowed to progress, assuming it continues bots will be pushed out of the Trigon and Ymir, perhaps even Andromeda, sectors in a day and a half. I understand that propaganda is a part of the satire, and I enjoy it quite a bit, but its not really super earth lying to me, its the people I'm buying an admittedly underpriced game from, and I would rather have no planet progression meter then one that is arbitrary and unmoving regardless of player participation.
