interactive gates for research are a mistake

Post by iwishforducks » #636393

i think research gates that require interaction are an utter mistake because you have to do these literally every round and none of them are particularly fun

dissection research = Stupid because it's just another check box you have to do at the start of the round (and yet no one seems to do it)

i think we can realize this in its purest form with the latest gas shell research gate. even if it was made easier then it doesn't really matter in my eyes, as it's another mandatory research gate. perhaps research in general is the issue, but i digress.

what are your guys thoughts?

Dissections are fine because Sci can, themselves, do it. Plus, it gives Robotics something to do while they don't have any research done and probably won't for the next 40 minutes.

I would like for research points to gain at at least double the rate and I do not care for R&D's song and dance or timegates.
