- have been adjusted to reflect the real assets, the software was taken out of the formula as it would artificially increase power by hoarding software.
- it is not based completely on hardware and assets

The change is probably sensible. Yesterday I was going more than 5 ranks up and down by downloading new and deleting old software. Just getting rid of my old log deleters and log undeleters caused a 10% power drop.

While I agree that the formula was in need of adjusting to tone down some effects of software, completely removing software from the calculation isn't a good idea IMO. Before power gave a rough idea of who could hack who, which was nice... Now... Not so much... Researching actually makes you go down in power now.
I'm looking forward to a power drop of 4000 any minute now which will keep all but three or four players from hacking me.

O.O I only posted that after I had verified it. A 5 hours of research made me drop 500. This happens because while HPD is calculated in, programs are not. Meaning when I research for 40 hours I lose 4000 HPD, but gain nothing that would benefit my power. |

Why? I did the software hoarding to prove my point that the power ranking was broken and I got it fixed because of it ;) |

Is there any chance of only getting your highest leveled program of a given type to count?...

I upgraded my firewall, which was already 0.3+ higher than any other program and it went down.
