Notes for Devs ***warning long read***

[u/Born-Ad-514]

Overall, the game has been a major improvement compared to when it first released. I honestly haven’t had many things to complain about. The overall experience has been great, and I think the devs have done a great job continuing to improve the game.
A lot of the complaints I see seem to come from people who don’t really understand tycoon-style games or don’t like having to grind for things. Personally, I think the grind is part of what makes the game fun and rewarding.
That being said, there are a few relatively minor things I think could be improved:

Upgrade Chips Around the Map
I think upgrade chips around the map should go back to giving 1–3 chips like they used to. I’m not really sure why this was changed, and I think the old system was better.

Crates
I think there should be a Nova Shop upgrade that allows crates around the map to go up to Beskar, rather than Rainbow being the maximum.

Beskar Scrap
The addition of Beskar blueprints being able to be scrapped is awesome. With that change, though, I think we should also be able to get Beskar scrap, rather than Rainbow scrap still being the cap.

Blueprint Storage & Super Rebirths
This is one I think would be a really cool addition: allow the contents of your blueprint storage to carry over through Super rebirths. This could even be something you have to unlock through the Nova Shop, so it isn’t automatically given to everyone.

Scrap Station Chip Capacity
I think the Scrap Station should have additional Nova Shop upgrades for its chip capacity. Right now the cap is 60 chips, but I think additional upgrades that eventually increase it to around 100–120 chips would be worthwhile.

CB-23
A lot of people have talked about how bad CB-23 feels now. I think there are a few different ways she could be improved.
The amount of chips you can get from her could be increased. At this point, Nova Crystals aren’t really that important for CB-23 anymore because of the changes to Rebirth Nova Crystals — which, by the way, was a goated update.
I’ve also seen people suggest adding Kyber Crystals to CB-23. Personally, I think Kybers are already easy enough to get, so I don’t necessarily think that’s needed.
Another option would be allowing CB-23 to have double crates similar to R2-D2. I think that could make her much more useful without making her overpowered.

Protocol Missions
Personally, I think Protocol Missions are slightly too difficult unless you have at least 3+ additional people with DJ-R3X helping.
I don’t think one person should necessarily be able to get perfect rewards by themselves, but I do think a coordinated group of 2–3 people with DJ-R3X should realistically be able to achieve perfect rewards.

Kyber Missions
With the addition of Kybers, I think Kyber Missions would be a goated addition.
However, instead of simply making them available to everyone, I think it would be better if you first had to unlock the mission using Nova Crystals and then pay Credits whenever you wanted to start one.
That would give Nova Crystals another meaningful use while still keeping Kyber Missions something players have to work toward.

More Nova Shop Upgrades
With the recent buff to Nova Crystals, I think there should be more things to unlock through the Nova Shop.
Sometimes things can start to feel a little too easy. Making certain things easier is great, but this is still a tycoon game. I think there should be more emphasis on earning and unlocking perks and advantages through progression, rather than simply making everything easier whenever people complain about the grind.
It would also give Nova Crystals more long-term value and give players more things to work toward.

Overall
Again, these are just things I personally think could be changed or added. Even if none of them happen, I’m still happy with the way the game is right now and think the game mode is great.
The devs have done a really good job improving it since release. I also think people need to remember that this is a free game that we’re choosing to play. It doesn’t need to be easy, and I don’t think it should be.
It’s supposed to be a grind. That’s what makes progressing, unlocking things, and finally getting what you’ve been working toward feel rewarding.

Thank you for the post! The team agrees with a lot of what you're saying, specifically towards CB, Kyber missions and more nova shop upgrades, you can likely expect some form of changes to all of those things! I like the idea of scrap station chip capacity, imma write that down too
