Is it just me???

Is it just me, or did this game seem a lot more fun when there was a 99 Smithore limit, desert plots, and higher driving scores?  I'm fine that crystite scales now but some of the "fixes" seem to have taken some of the fun/edge away.
Anyone else???

The desert plots were a nice addition.  The non-spoilage was a bug.  But honestly I've only played Planet MULE 3 times.  Aside from not having that much time to play, I haven't been playing because of the game synchronization problem.  It causes too many inconsistencies IMO.  And so for now my preferred version is the original emulated version with Kaillera.  An added benefit of the original is that the game can be saved, and re-joined if a problem crops up.

Desert plots I can take or leave. They were interesting but not massively impacting. However, I am GREATLY pleased that they changed the smithore game. Before, the winner simply came down to who was able to buy from the store in month 11. 4th place became 1st 80% of the time, and almost all the other games it was 3rd b/c 4th had somehow not had enough money to buy out. At least now, it is interesting and the outcome is in doubt up to the end.
