How long has it been since there been one? Was trying to get the coin machine up and running. Only coils to buy where way to expensive
14 days since the color cycling one went out. 25 and 26 days since our last T6/T7 worlds.

Ok, my usual silliness and all aside, to be serious for a minute here - it would be great to get some info here, as TBH Iām starting to genuinely worry here. Like, is everything ok there?
I would also totally, totally be on board to sponsor some exos if that were an option. 
Even if the price point were $50-100, Iād do one right now for you all if I could and be happy to do it.

from the devs standpoint ( never being one) i can completely understand why exo may be less frequent or literally no longer exist. they realized why should we invest dev time making planets, when costumers can make what they truly want. i imagine there will be an update to creatives/sovereign to add exo crops later.
imo this is not something to complain about it should be celebrated. i havent seen this kind of user freedom in any game ever.
if this is the case u need to turn every exo crop over to yield seed. starting now. ^^
Iām not sure this can happen, as it could create the situation where you have to pay to get what are currently exo crops and blocks.
What if everyone make their sovereign private, that means there are crafting ingredients (not just colours) that are not available at all without paying real money.
I think most people are OK with cosmetics costing real money (colours arguably fall into that catagory), but not OK with crafting ingredients.
If there was at least one each of blink, rift and umbris planet permanently available, then I think it would be fine to add those to sovereigns.

Exo planets and player rental planets serve two very different purposes.
Exo planets were introduced along with new items & are a large chunk of content for the game now. It allows them to experiment with special planets too, like the recent color-changing one. Several times, there have been long droughts with no Exos or no T7 Exos.
People are renting planets to have their own personal space for building, guilds, control of certain aspects, etc. Just like clubs/guilds/land/etc in any other similar game.
One type of content should not suddenly negate the other without reason/explanation.
We can only speculate as to why the drought is happening. At least once previously, it was due to other content/updates that they were working on.

T7ās used to be a feature of the game; why have they been removed and which patch did this?

They arenāt removed. They just arenāt spawning because the devs are too busy to trigger one due to working on baldurs 3 from what has been speculated
Well, update in the works, so maybe exos back soon?

It is quite a-typical to be absent for such a long period. I start to believe it is really the end of this Boundless chapter. I just canāt see why lack of dev time is a reason to stop exo-generation; I considered it an automated and quite randomized process.

I was going to post something about transparency related to this earlier, but then didnāt because I felt it wasnāt constructive. I think youāre right 100% though. We knew from day 1 that EXOās would be used as test servers essentially and the fact that we had an EXO with block changing really should have piqued a lot more interest than it did as to what might be coming in the next test update.
Who thought weād actually be getting changing blocks any time soon, until we got surprised with that exo? The lack of transparency makes for fantastic surprises but it also makes for a lot of mongering of various types. I think if weāre fans of this game at this point still, we just have to acknowledge that you need to enjoy what we have and be delighted with surprised and if things get blah then there are hundreds of other games to enjoy in the meantime until something happens to bring you back.

This type of thing is how you get developers reluctant to tell you what they are doing.

Not sure how. They are busy doing something, time can only be spent on so many things.
If they didnāt tell us they were on baldurs and nothing was spawned or there are no Halloween announcements then people would start ranting or getting worried. This way we know what they are doing.
The post merely stated facts. They are busy, then arent manually spawning the exos as a result- either that or Sovereigns broke something with the spawning system. However, if that was the case then we most likely would have been told.
Edit: personally I support the work because baldurs looks great and it also brings in some money to keep boundless afloat.
They said theyāve been working on it since 2019. Stop acting like BG is THE REASON there are no exos right now.

Care to offer a better explanation lol. Pretty sure they have also been commiting way more time to it recently due to early access. Either way theres no exos lol
