Why isn't this in a game yet?

Ello!

Just wondering. Why aren't we allowed to put multiple of the same item to build at the same time in foundry? Especially if we have the resources to put it. 😕

To make you want to spend plats to rush them. This is a free-to-play game. It's going to do free-to-play games things.

Not saying it's nice, just reality.

because it's meant to incentivize to log in everyday and actually do things. if you could set up a queue you would just start it, then leave and wait for it to finish.

the reasoning behind this is that DE is hoping people will feel that 'oh, well I'm already logged in, might as well play"

Isn't there a mobile app that gives you access to the foundry?

My current mobile phone is over 10 years old, so I can't use it. I didn't buy into the whole "Smartphone" craze.

But frames take like 3 days to make, would be nice if i could actually put multiple of them at the same time cooking. 😕

Why would you make multiple of the same frame at one time?

FAshion! i need more fashion. 😞 I don't enjoy changing around presets and 3 isn't enough anyway

Well i also have multiple of the same frames/weapons.  Its also for fashion and different builds. Focus farming etc.

I don't see the need for you to build say 2 saryn primes at once.  You could say build a bunch of different frames/weapons at once though.

Actually grown to prefer the only able to build 1 forma at a time thing. That way I can do fissures one day and farm like 7 forma bps and then not have to worry about farming for more of them for a week.

Really the only items I'd want this for is gear / mining stuff. If you want to make a bunch of energy pizzas or ciphers it'd be easier if you could just queue up multiples.

Holy crap I'm not the only one still using a 1999 flip phone!

Anything automated is less incentive for you to spend money to skip manual effort.

Personally i think it should be with frames too
