Fellow eRepublicans,
Funny how rl money is so important here eventough in my long inactivity not much has been added to this game. I guess the creators have had some nice trips to the mall 🙂
kind regards,
Dutchys
P.s.

There is one element that money can not buy and that is Strength.
And strength actually is the most important parameter except for the number of Energy Bars you put into a fight.
So there still is some slight hope for free players to matter.
Haven't you seen the awesome new red plasma tanks on the battle field? Surely that must have cost them time. 🙂
It actually is great that the game itself stays partly preserved. It would be really strange if they changed so much to the game that it didn't stay recognisable if you skipped playing a few months.
And part of the income they get is of course also spent on keeping the servers running, and fixing the code.
if i stopped playing in 2008 and rejoined now i wouldn't recognize the game.
It definitely used to be a lot different when I started. So you're definitely right that over the years a lot has changed. But short-term there's less changes. The main thing seems to be these events which last for a week and surprise us every time...
You still can train much more with gold in your pockets. The fighting system is basicly the same (dependend on your production, which you can increase with gold). Only good thing that changed is that the Netherlands are free again!
Once your training facilities are upgraded, the training pays for it self. Most people are training at the max of 90 per day. I have gold, but I can not buy any extra strength as 90 + the 2 bonus a day is the max, even if I had 1000 gold in my pockets. I can not change this with a visa card 90 + 2 is the max.
A good visa card can however accelerate the upgrading of your facilities by 6 to 8 months.
cash allows you to fight more and this increases your rank points more, so your damage per hit will increase slightly. But other than that, 'strength' is not affected by visa.
gold can buy you 17,5 strenght each day..
