Join the new world

No... I didn't have a dream title, i had a brainstorm. Though 'I had a dream' sounds a lot more civil rightsey so okay, we'll go with that. Now, the fact is that ERepublik has been accused of going a bit stale recently, as you may ormay not know. Of course, some people put this down to lack of new players, and those who do play are shoved aside on the grounds of calling the game 'boring' so ihad a few idea on how to fix that or at least make the game at least 2% more interesting, so lets get started, shall we?

Number 1: Activity Bonus

Now, before you talk about the whole 'Work and Train' Nonsense, i mean somethign slightly different to this, and its not so mucha bonus as a raffle. Now, how this works is that when you successfully work, train, mur- AHEM. do required stuff, you are placed into a weekly lottery for prizes of mass amounts Gold or money or something to that extent. Now, how this can be improved horizontally and vertically, is having tiers for levels, to help scale it so the 100+ level pros don't end up with some useless Q1 food and the 500/1000 people in the first 10 levels, for example, have a prize for every 100, to help the country as a whole and scale the winnings to be even throughout.

Also, you could offer tiers in the shape of 1st, 2nd, 3rd and so on, which would liven it up, but its all ideas. Unfortunately i have yet to figure out how the picture system works, so here is a random smiley thing as filler.

Number 2: More to Dominate!

Let's face it, ERepublik has a lot of missing areas which lay behind a curtain of white, and we could be taking that shit, but nope. I'd love to see all extra areas open up at some point, regardless if people actually play in those areas, because, lets face it, the UK isn't taking over Europe anytime soon. It would help make a few new Empires in the world and there will be more to contest if Africa alone opens up to us, and it could very well help some weak, forgotten nation to become a force people don't just scoff at... So... can we have it? Pleassssseeee? 🙂

Number 3: Empire Threshold

Simple one, change the threshold to 3500. Might not make anyone else an Empire right now, but still.

Number 4: More HoC Desisions

The House Of Commons desisions, according to the wiki, are rather malnourished as far as things to do go, and while this may not be the case, i had a few ideas to add to the pile.

1: National Focus

If you've ever played Europa Universalis, you may well be familiar with this term. What this is, is that a natural resource that a country has, it can pay a sum of Cash to Double the bonus from it, or maybe have it scale. Any region in the country with the national focus resource gains a defensive bonus addition to its name and people in the region of that resource also get a production and strength bonus. How does that sound?

2: EELDM: ERepublikan Extremely Large Defensive Mechasnism

Got the name for this from a telescope in Chile called the European Extremely Large Telescope. No, I'm not kidding, look it up. Now, this is a gun which, for a set amount of time, can stop ANY invasion for a week and it costs double to apply in none home country regions. Simple enough.

3. State Production Buildings

The title says it all really. Notably costly buildings which contribute to the General public and give them free/Paid stuff in their time of need. This could also add Weapon and Food storages to the State of a Country to be done with as a country needs it, and it could, for example, help facilitate the NHS or something like that.

4. Actual State Newspapers

For the Prime Minister to write and the house of Commons to approve, and maybe edit where needed. Not complicated, though some can argue unessesary. But it might make it easier when new Prime Ministers get into power.

Number 5: Rogue Players/Colonists

An idea with potential. Players can 'Become Rogue' and can explore the Sea and potentially find a new Island. They can then Colonise this and the island is added to the game either under a Free Government or Under an existing one. It might now be Geographically accurate, but it could very well be a idea for the internationally tarnished in terms of reputation. BigAnt could vanish into Ant Valley and never come back. The islands are severely ahrd to take over and when they do, the Island may well vanish if the battle takes too long or a WoMD is used.

Number 6: Go Into Space

You go into space and make colonies on other worlds, like Empire Universe. 'Nuff said.

Number 7: Shake Up The Prestige Bonuses

Do I even need to explain this one? Maybe add a few more bonus templates and switch between them every week? Most of the early stuff is pointless and I'm not yet ready to break out my nonnexistent wallet for some Energy bars. So you ain't getting money from me... Yet.
