Increase the value of the dollar (planned for v3/4)
« on: October 02, 2010, 05:52:24 AM »
Summary:In other words...make things less expensive, reduce rewards and excessively reduce the bank limit. This may cause players to fight for money more as each dollar is worth more than it is now. This may bring more action to the server and have people stay.

You see players these days with 10k in their hand, we don't see it as much money and it just doesn't seem like anyone would actually want to fight for it.

Advantages: May bring more action to the server because the money is more valuable. And the cash flow will look a lot cleaner and realistic.

Disadvantages: I guess some players will be like "OMGWTF bank limit is lowered!" but it's not a big deal if you think this because the price of the stuff you can purchase is lowered as well.

Ah, yes this idea not bad. But anyway all the players know money value- example you said 10k, so we know that sum low. If this suggestion may be accepted, then server need much updates. Like lower bank limit, lower property price, guns price and etc. If this feature can invite more ppl to lws, i'm voting for. But let's take a look, maybe in trial period. Btw, im neutral @this.
Good ideas Nightmare.

Well there is just one point on the server which makes a lot of new players leave ..

And thats the point that they dotn know how to earn good money ...

And you cant tell them to stay 1 hour on the ship before they got 90k ( yes i calculated it ;) )

There have to be a way to make weapons getable for every new player ...

I guess thats the point why there are more players on servers like GamerX

Before i was able to earn money with properties and stuff when i started i was always thinking about quiting that game and search a better one ..

Then someone gave me like 2mil cuz his bank was full and i was buying props ... it was the only thing i did when i started cuz i was rly playing only here to earn money ...

After that i just learned a bit to fight and thats it ...

Like that i guess you`ll get regulars

But dont ask me how to make the Money easier to get for the new players ...

And with that exact purpose, Miczi suggested a tutorial.

Yes, yes, yes! Nightmare I love you :)
I really miss people flaming me for killing them with 40k their pocket (now they are not even sad when I kill them with 2mills :/ )

It should be implemented, but the ship earning should not be lowered, it would get more action there.

Lets imagine Every new player is a Gigo ... So  Have Fun trying to make this guy know anything ...
its just a fact that there are some new players without any knowhow to play and they dont even speak good english ...
its just like teaching a cow to fly ...
But if you give that cow some Money she will be happy and keep playing here cuz i guess every new player can think :



is

I dont think treating new players as a cow would help the server, not everyone is gigo...
Benny, you say it would cause more db, but at least there would be some real fights, people will really start trying to stay alive.
