That's NOT -like promised- 2 TIMES EASIER TO SUPPLY BUT ALMOST 2 TIMES MORE WORK!
(It's also NOT REALLY 2 TIMES EASIER to supply a base, just because it needs half amount of RA, it will also need Food, Oxygen and Water!)

Just my observation. Very, very crude measurements but they seem to indicate correctly:
Starting point was 3:58 PM local time
By 4:04 PM I had lost 38 RA
By 4:18 PM I had lost 112 RA
112 RA / 20 minutes = 5.6 RA per minute (crude measurements, remember) which is in line with 6 per minute since it eats 2 per 20 seconds. This was on a core 4.
EDIT: By crude measurements I mean occasionally looking up at an oven clock. So no seconds being accounted for.
Further crude oven time measurements this morning suggest similar data:
Lost 5474 RA over 15 hours 40 minutes.
5474/940 = 5.82 RA per min = 2 per 20 seconds correcting for my shoddy time keeping.
So if you are seeing increased consumption, something is weird with your base.
THANKS for trying to help and calculate RA-consumption, Dead Reckoning!
Controled RA-consumtion again and it turned out that nothing has changed...
Maybe it was a temporary problem (?) or a miscalculation on my side... (sorry for that!)
In this case I have to amend my first post now:
Have these changes already been made now?
! - my base (core 4) seems to need STILL THE SAME AMOUNT of Reinforced Alloy now - !
That's NOT -like promised- 2 TIMES EASIER TO SUPPLY, because RA is not the only thing a base needs!
So, what we get is:
- EXACTLY THE SAME WORK TO SUPPLY as before and in exchange
- FOUR TIMES EASIER TO GET DESTROYED
fair deal?
PLEASE POST FACTS about:
How long does it take to BUILD a core4-base with 10 people?
why does it now only take ~90 minutes for 10 people to destroy this work?
because some people like to shoot around ...???
fair deal? ...time to leave the game? ...time for new devs/admins with GOOD ideas?
---end of amended post---
---> It's just very sad that
- noone in the whole developer- and admin team was even able to tell us, if these changes are working already or not!
- STILL nobody of them writes (or even thinks) about the relation between the lots of work TO BUILD A CORE 4 BASE (in my case WITH ALL FACTORIES) and the fact, that 10 people (with BS) can destroy this whole thing in less then two hours.
cannot try if destruction-time has changed until know and after ~12 pages in this thread there is still no USEABLE INFORMATION about that.
