1 If the storage is divided by 8 then a newbie will build 8x the storage to hold his metal and I then all his allies are also sitting on tonnes of storage capacity too now. 1 If the storage is divided by 8 then a newbie will build 8x the storage to hold his metal and I then all his allies are also sitting on tonnes of storage capacity too now.

3 No, the reason they build storage is they don't want to excess, and the reason they excess is they don't put their factories on repeat. Instead they build nothing but constructors and storages just to get their economy under control, because when their factory is only running 1/10th of the time they need 10x the buildpower to spend in a timely fashion. Whenever I tell a noob to put his factory on repeat and assist it, it completely changes how he plays because suddenly he is no longer excessing so no longer needs to do these stupid things to get his eco under control. 3 No, the reason they build storage is they don't want to excess, and the reason they excess is they don't put their factories on repeat.

5 Just putting factories on repeat by default would fix a lot of this. 5 This is also why they build large projects like mechs, fusions, and berthas: These large structures provide constant drain over a long period without them having to press the 'glaive' button 100 times.

7 Just putting factories on repeat by default would fix a lot of this. The first thing the tutorial teaches you about factories is put them on repeat! But everyone immediately forgets this on mission 2 because it's so easy to miss. But we should have done this at launch because a lot of noobs have probably learnt completely the wrong way to play.
