Marathon Mode : Increase Tech Multiplier

[mudcrabempire]

As per Title i would like to suggest increasing the Tech Multiplier for Marathon Mode

From x4 to x10

This is simply Compensation for the Removal of expensive Recipes bringing overall Marathon Prices ( and therefore Time spent on everything ) back to the previous Scale. Currently it's more of a Half-Marathon-Mode...

I've tested a Playthrough Marathon-Deathworld with these Settings ( plus Deathworld Settings for Gleba , currently Gleba is unaffected by Deathworld ) and was quite happy with the Experience.

And to preemptively answer those who say "Well if you want those Settings just do it" - I say if the Devs say the Mode is worth putting there then it's worth maintaining it. Or arguing in Reverse : Removing expensive Recipes (great Decision) and not having the Motivation to rebalance Prices to maintain the same Experience sounds to me a bit like better remove the Feature from Base-Game and leave it to the Modders (put all other Modes in an "Arcade" where Modders can also publish Challenges of their own?, well that would be another Thread).

I would rather have expensive recipes back for 2.1 and Space Age, be it in a official mod.

Main reason im playing 1.1 still because Marathon is just the real deal.

So what? Have you tested your proposition with at least 100 random players and control group?
I have played with many different settings and "was quite happy with the Experience", should dev now add all MY variants to presets?

Instead of just bashing the guy why don't u come up with something like I did. It's evident SOMETHING needs to happen because current 2.0 Marathon does not live up to the legacy.
