Whats wrong with the economy?Problems,possible solutions
Nezu Chuuko
According to forums and player articles erepublik's economy not functioning as it should since years. In this article I will attempt to reveal the reasons and possible solutions fixing economy if there any at all.
Let me begin with the obvious statement: Economy is all about supply and demand. The same thing is true about erepublik's economy.
1,Supply
- Almost every player in erepublik company owner therefore contributes to supply
- Every player allowed to work as a manager
- Free handout of a food company for new players
2,Demand
- Minimal since most of company owners can self supply easily, but here is the catch since almost all players
company owners almost everybody self supply!
- Due to minimal demand ever increasing inflation
There is two way to deal with the problems: limiting supply or/and increasing demand.
How to increase demand:
1,
Fix the inequality between Food and Weapon products
- Weapon affects quality of your hit(only q7 has market,everything else useless) while food doesnt affect your quality of energy recover(therefore useless beyond saving place in your storage)
For example a q7 food should recover 20 health like it did,but it would also recover another 20 health which not counted to your energy recover limit.
There food has demand now!
2,
Decrease the durability of Weapons
-Every weapons durability should be set to 1,or even better make q7 weapons 1 durability, q1 10 durability,in short poor could afford a weapon,but the richest would only look for the exlusive q7!
3,(this is only a short term solution)
Increase the energy recovery/6 minutes
Make the 20// minutes,also weekly missions should grant really high energy recover prizes.
High energy recover limit---> more demand for food and weapons--> better economy
How to decrease supply:
Its clear the biggest troublemaker here working as a manager.
Now this is a tricky one but I believe there is a way to fix it.
Introduce roles to erepublik gameplay!
Every player could choose a class after certain time passe😛
1,
Soldier
Advantage:
+10% more strenght gain(with full train:99 str/day instead of 90 str/day)
Disadvantages:
-Cant work as a manager/it cant hire workers/in short cannot use companies
strength is the most valued number in erepublik,therefore players who in top str would choose this role. Also usually those players who has highest demand towards supply but can supply themselves...It might look underpowered but str really the single most important prize in events/challanges etc
2,
Business
Advantage:
Can work as a manager and use company as before
This role would fit for players who focus on economy
3,
All rounder
Advantage:
+ 10% military rank gain
- Can hire workers(but cant work as manager)
- 5 free travel/day(perfect for gaining profit from mercenary and freedom fighter medals)
+ 1 damage in guerilla fight
+ publish article in any country
Disadvantage:
Cant work as a manager(but still can hire workers and use company)
This role would be perfect for average players

There used to be a day when you could not work in your own companies, and that change did indeed bring about the collapse of economies. There also used to be a job skill, which was tied to the industry you worked in and was much like strength. Working managers are by far the biggest obstacle in the economy. I own 76 companies and vastly produce more than I need every day and an far from unique in that way.
As I suspected,thats why proposed the idea introducing classes to game,which would reduce players who can use working as manager.

I actually like the fact that I can play the full game on equal conditions with everybody. There are other ways to fix the economy without making me have to choose a module over another and by doing that become a cash cow for people that choose to focus only in the economy.
The only thing the game really need is a limit to the pay to win features and a market were we have an assured sell at a pre-set minimum price and where we can buy products at a pre-set maximum price.
And, of course. Some sort of fix that makes the game attractive to new players.
What do you mean by pay to win features? Also How does pay to win features affects the economy? Also after removed reasons to buy gold,how do you plan to make a game profitable to owners?Because as you know not enough profit game site closes down.
Another question what other ways you mean?Because as I pointed out there is a problem supply and demand.
But if you meant planned economy I dont think that would work,if you set the minimum selling price too low nobody will buy anything from market but a balck market will fourish,if no way for black market exist then nobody will buy anything but instead produce themselves what they need.
Remember everyone manager with unlimited supply potential,even if not unlimited more than enough than they need
As you see fixed price solves nothing.
I meant too high the minimum sales prices
