Staff Death Posted February 16, 2018 Staff Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 It's been much debate on whether or not to fully migrate away from physical recyclers and instead use portable recyclers as one of the VIP perks. Since we strongly feel that portable recyclers will benefit the player more, and free up a lot of our admins time we have decided to do just that. Many players have expressed their feelings about this change and some would much rather the physical recycler, and because of this, we've decided to issue $5.00 of account credit to all current VIP members to either purchase their own physical recycler or buy anything of their choice on the store. This credit has already been applied and can be used at any time. We appreciate your understanding and hope you find this new feature as exciting as we do!

SCE_Wraith Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 I appreciate this as a way to appease those who who are having significant issues with the VIP recycler change. I will happily use my credit for a physical recycler. IF I get bored, I'll probably take some time to do some comparative tests if it helps with the tuning of the pocket recycler (/REC). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Death Posted February 16, 2018 Author Staff Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 @SCE_Shadewolfe I recommend comparing now as we've just recently buffed the output. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maca Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 Hey I think this is a great idea, love the new portable recycler but sadly it yields a bit less than regular which makes me favour the regular one. I'll give some examples of the differences in yields between normal (first) and portable (second) Metal pipe: 5 scrap 1 HQM | 3 scrap 1 HQM Rope: 15 cloth | 4 cloth Sewing Kit: 10 cloth 2 rope | 3 cloth 1 rope Road sign: 5 scrap 1 HQM | 3 scrap 1 HQM Sheet metal: 8 scrap 1 HQM 100 Frags | 4 scrap 1 HQM 21 Frags Metal Spring: 10 scrap 1 HQM | 6 scrap 1 HQM Metal Blade: 2 scrap 15 Frags |2 Scrap 4 Frags Propane tank: 1 scrap 50 frags |1 scrap 11 Frags Semi Body: 15 scrap 2 HQM 75 Frags | 6 Scrap 1 HQM 16 Frags As we can see from this data the portable recycler has an extremely inferior return. nonetheless it is a great perk for early roaming or when you have a full backpack. I appreciate the $5 store credit so we can still buy our place-able recyclers! Thanks death P.s. sorry for poor formatting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Death Posted March 31, 2018 Author Staff Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 An issue identified with the latest recycler update is known to us and we're working to resolve it. Avoid tabbing out of the recycler while in use otherwise, you'll lose some resources. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
