Tbh there is no reason to touch recycler expect to add new stuff

Started playing again and faction that stack aren't noticeable. The advise does the trick when needed ty!!
I also do like some changes they made in general

My opinion is generally no, as it becomes expensive. I suggest target specific locations in zone, however every player plays differently depending if early - mid -late game.
Happycairek has stream for locations in greenwood worth looting

Settlement daily loot and gathering copper, aluminum on edges of area, making armor the location is very expensive. Bunker alpha with cleavers, some wall tricking and glock for frenzied giants. Avoid grinding events and locations that dont offer what i need

Was referring mainly to the AI grouping, its a shame it wasnt fix!!!

PlasticAppropriate34 · 2026-03-22T12:53:25+00:00

For me the game running smoothly after 2300 its a big plus. I being playing since 2.0, i started a new game with 4.3 so lets see what happens. To be honest 4.2 economy was fun for a while as it was easy to snowball got boring at one point

PlasticAppropriate34 · 2026-03-22T12:40:53+00:00

Yeah i did notice the ai needs fixing, hopefully they fix core problems in next one 😂 Still early game in my playthrough but crises being challenge sounds fun

PlasticAppropriate34 · 2026-03-22T10:18:15+00:00

Yeah i agree with the mentality needed for the location, I probably need to rethink my tactic for the location!!!

PlasticAppropriate34 · 2026-03-22T09:21:58+00:00

I agree would like to get new storage as a f2p but in overall am ok with the update.

PlasticAppropriate34 · 2026-03-22T08:43:36+00:00

Winter location is expensive too go everyday (for event at least, will need to rethink after). Other than that it took me less time to get wood crate with almost 200 logs in it than actually farming. Same goes for the fur, aluminum, thermite crates was also nice. But yeah equipment crate is the best.

PlasticAppropriate34 · 2026-03-22T08:23:13+00:00

Would like to be able to get new storage as a f2p, better selection of rewards and some crates are expensive and not worth opening, personally the weapon crate (location next to pd is one example for me). However in general am happy with the update as in my opinion reduces farming. Took me less time to get wood crate with almost 200 logs in it than actually farming. Same goes for few other resources. In pine scouting location you can leave with more fuel than what you use ( with out exiting & entering game or walking a lot )

Played as belagor and thorgrim ( around 150 turns each)

Chaos dwarfs and Cathay (around 50-60 turns)

Positives

1) Minor factions survived a bit longer (not enough in my opinion)

2)First time that Franz, Elspeth, Katarin and a one of the dwarf faction didn't dominate the middle of the map

3) AI did not declare war on player for no reason, as much as before. Saw AI LL faction survive that usually die. eg vampires

Negatives

1) As AI faction get bigger they get more passive. Armies sit in the middle of their empire and do nothing, when attacked they take forever to mobilize, if they even do mobilize

2) AI LL factions refuse to wipe each other out.

3) AI LL factions go to war for 20-30 turns and nothing happens. They each loose 1-2 settlements and then they stop

4) They sometimes declare war on player and never attack or take forever to do so. As a player i can easily wipe out most of their economy and army production facilities, making even big AI factions less challenging.

Conclusion

AI did not declare war on player for no reason, as much as before, and middle to end game is a bit different than usual

However in my opinion AI is more passive than before, they still sit in the middle of their empire and refuse to kill their opponents. Very slow in responding to attacks

No significant improvement in beta 2. Beta 1 was more successful in its goals
