Imagine you read the next things in an Insider:

Dear Citizens,

We heard your calls. The last months, after the release of eRepublik Rising, a terrible Epidemy, the V2 Plague has burst out and contaminate every region in the world. No country was safe. Unfortunately this sickness lead to the death of more than hundred thousand of eHumans in the eWorld. We are terribly sorry for the ones (and we know you're a lot since we have seen all your tickets) that lost close friends. 🙁

The truth is that even for us, it was totally uncontrolable. Seeing the eWorld's Population decreasing very fast (and the payments for gold becoming rare), we began to panic. But we calmed down, sat around a table and began to think about the ultime solution. A solution that would stop all this crazy stuff.

We have been working day and night during many weeks to get this developped but now we are oh so proud to disclose the upcoming "eRepublik Advanced (V3)". We are also very happy to announce that these updates will be effective at the end of october 2010. It's not a joke ! We worked hard and we succeeded in bringing you these updates as soon as possible. 🙂

We will now describe the new features.
Note that some changes might still occur (to balance the economy and world's powers). A Beta version will be started in a week or two to track and solve eventual bugs.




In a few weeks from now, you'll type erepublik.com and...Wow, everything seem to have changed !

The new banner displays "Advanced". First, you are stunned when you see a beautiful interface, more ergonomic than today with a good balance between white and darker colours (amazing, your eyes are not burned immediatly). Well ok, let's go on to the login.

You have the following tabs on the top of the page:
"Profile", "Job", "Military", "Politics", "Media", "Market", "Settings"

Avatar:
You log on and you see a page called "Character customization".
Your reaction: wth? You see a choice balks "Eyes colour", "Hair", "Hair colour", "Nose", "Mouth", "Chin", "Background Colour". You take a few minutes to customize your character and click on "Next". You notice once again the sober and well-balanced interface and also your character's face on the left side. This is your new avatar and it is now 150x150.
Age: In the beginning, he looks young (around 13 years old) , but as your character gets old, he'll also look older from day to day ! The oldest your character can look like is around 65 years old with white hair but still strong and "awake". And that's when you're born in the early beta period. More Than A Year Players look like 35 years old.
Clothes: By default, your character wears a shirt but it can change depending on your job:
- Worker: Worker's Outfit
- Soldier: Military Outfit
- Manager: Smoking
- Doctor: Doctor Outfit
Or depending on your special status:
- Commander In Chief: Commander's Hat and Soldier's Outfit with decoration.
- President: Smoking with a "stroke" of the colours of your country on the shoulder.
Backgroun😛 You can choose your background picture (in your settings).
Other things: In the uper-left corner you see your level. In the uper-right corner you see a little flag of your citizenship. In the lower-left corner you see a small logo representing your military rank and finally in the lower-right corner you can see your special status if you have one (only for commander in chief, congress, governors, president or ministers).






Just the same as actually (but adapted to V3).







You click on "Job" and you see the page changing, you can now choose between:
Worker, Military, Manager, Doctor
Quite a few choices. Luckily you have a little description that shows up when you move your mouse over the different choices. It helps you to make your choice.



- Apply for a job:
After you clicked on "Worker" on the "Job" page, you see a list of enterprises anouncing they're searching employees. You click on one, you arrive on a page where you can see: The organisation's name, its logo, the number of employees, the linked owner(s) of the organisation, the product produced in the company (Food, Moving Ticket, Weaponry, Material).
If the company is ok for you, click on Apply [/i]

Working:
Simple, you two things to do: indicating the number of stars and clicking on "Work". The number of stars mean how hard you want to work. More stars, More money, Less Wellness. No such things anymore as annoying "hour management" or expensive "Boosters".

Quitting:
Here the things change quite a bit. Here are te 3 possible scenario's:
- If your boss tries to lower your wage, if your boss has fired you:
You may quit immediately And you'll get a "Compensation", just like in IRL. Anyway depending on your total productivity (based on experience points, wellness and number of time worked of the last 30 days), you'll get automatically money from the company.
- If you pay back to the company a part of the money you won in the last 30 days:
You may quit immediately.
- If you click on "quit" and wait 7 days:
You may quit whitout losing/winning money.



Getting Recruite😛
After you clicked on "Soldier" on the "Job" page, You see a formular to fill in and left to that, an avatar. You realise that you're about to send a message to the COMMANDER IN CHIEF of your National Army.
(Note: The Commander in Chief is appointed by the president of your country. The formular's questions are created by the president and approved by the congress.)

You fill in the formular and you see your demand pending. After a few hours, the Commander In chief has read your answers and given his approval (or not).
You notice that the character on your avatar is now wearing a military outfit (instead of a t-shirt)

Fighting as a work:
You visit your home page and see the Battle and the side in which you have to fight (Battle orders). You click on it and you fight for your country. Then, you get paid for it, immediately from the country's treasory.
(Note: The Battle is chosen by the Commander In Chief in a special page, accesible only by him).
(Note 2: The Minister of Economies indicates how much money you get for each damage point. It has to be approved by the congress)



Create/buy a company, buy Raw Materials, manage your employees, and make benefits 🙂
or
Create a Raw Company, manage your employees, produce raw materials and sell to other managers 🙂
You notice that the character on your avatar is now wearing a smoking (instead of a t-shirt).



You've chosen "Doctor" in the "Job" page, you have now the possibility to create a "Medical Workplace" whom working is similar to companies. This feature is introduced to replace the Wellness Boxes (and also to launch a new sector in the economy) and to change the hospital system.

The Medical Workplaces will sell "chirurgical operations", these are showed as normal products on the market but are with immediate use (you can't stock them). Doctors work in the hospital of you region (if there is one, otherwise you can't work. Same if it's destroyed). Your clients will only have access to the "operations" that you produce if they are located in the same region as the hospital in which you work. To produce these operations, a new Raw will be introduce😛 "Medicine".

The quality of your operations (the amount of health points they make you gain) depends of the hospital of your region. These hospitals will appear in 10 differents "quality levels". Q1, Q2, ...Q10.
Example: If you move your organisation to region "X" where a hospital Q1 is built, you will be able to create a Medical Workplace in this hospital that will produce Q1 operations sold on the market (and that will make the people buying them, gaining 10 wellness points. If the government decides to replace this hospital and invest in a Q5 (for example), you will be able to sell Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4 or Q5 operations (note: production of operations needs more raw if quality is higher).

Good to know is that you can go on the market, search the operations that suits you and click on the little button next to "Buy" which is "Favourite". Then, you can go on the battlefield and you'll see a little button next to "Fight" with a star. CLicking on it will automatically buy one operation from the Medical Workplace set in favourite and make you gain health.

Important: Maximal amount of operations for each 24h is 10.
Important2: It will be extremely important to choose well the region where you'll establish your Medical workplace in function of:
- number of inhabitants (potential clients)
- quality of hospital built there









For you, the page will be similar to the actual page, but we will remove the expensive boosters.



For you, it will be slightly different: you can also train but you'll win 10% more strenght than civils).
Under this you will also see a chatboxfor all professional soldiers of your country.
All above (top of the page), you see also a message (max 300 characters) that can be edited by the Commander In chief and only him (it can be precisions on the battle orders of the day).
Finally you also have a button to quit the army.


We already announced to you some new real exiting features. All this is still in developpement but should be online at the end of October, 2010. In the next Invader we will present to you the New War Module that will be full of improvement.

Last thing, we have 5 new awesome guys in the administration team. They will work hard to reintroduce the Contracts in the game but with a new interface and new way of working.

Stay Tuned !

Kind regards,
Your eRoflblik Team


Note to Serbians: Why do I post this article here? Because it couldn't be posted in France (my home country), because people there hate english articles, because I love Serbia and finally because you're the most populated wountry in the eWorld.
Note to Admins: You may... No, you SHOULD take inspiration of the description below, according to me 🙂 Believe me, eRepublik would become the most popular browsergame on the web ! Please don't delete this article.
