Quicker mining...

Would TS consider an upgrade for mining to take shorter period of time?

I would like to jump on this opportunity no matter how many img it would cost... (I believe it would cost quite much, like the 1.0 multiplier adding upgrades etc.)

Anybody on for this idea?

  • Good idea, but it might come with penalties, like lesser ore. I don't mind mining at the same amount of time if we can get more, or bonus ores (like super harvests).

  • Yeah, lesser ore penalty is something that I wouldn't be into of course...
    4 seconds became a little too long to me somehow.

    Also, 2 secs without bonus gems is simply not worth getting that RSI on my right wrist :D

  • +1 for Manic Mining IV and beyond (Manic Mining III).

  • I want to be able to craft dynamite which blows up an entire rock into chunks.

  • Not sure if that works in my mind from a game balancy type perspective, WalruZ, but that really would be fun!! 

    Now where's a creeper when you need one? :D

  • I think it would be too unbalanced if you ask me.

  • No plans for faster mining. But, perhaps better: Multiminingtasking, which makes mining more like crafting (so you can eat stuff, sort bags, search, meditate, etc., while mining).

  • ...Woah...how'd you post the same thing from 2 different accounts at the same time? Also, is there any chance we could get an upgrade that let us mine a whole rock at the same speed without the multitude of clicks? I like to multi-task while playing glitch, so it would be nice to be able to screw with my playlist while mining happened, or start a video loading, or what have you. Multiminingtasking sounds good already though, I've been wanting that!

  • Mulitminingtasking almost sounds like it could be based on some kind of new tool.  The Autominer or the Quickpick.  You might need an upgrade or skill level to use it, too.

    Maybe something that would make the 4 seconds worth it would be an upgrade card that gives extra bonuses to anyone who mines with you.  I mean bonuses above and beyond what we currently get for group mining.  So, what you do is you end up grouping with other people who have the upgrade and you all win!
