Solution to the cost of moving.
Majester
There is a new outcry about the cost of moving. Its complicated.
With moving tied to currency, its affordability is closely tied to the exchange rate. If they pegged it to Gold you would think it cheap right now. The solution is quite simple really.
Introduce an item people can use to move. Items are directly tied to the economy and thus change in value as demand and production dictates. Perhaps call them Movement Tokens or something.
Jokes aside -- Moving Tickets technically still exist in the game code. The idea solution is to have a currency and gold price for moving as well as a consumable item, MT. This pegs the outer limits of the cost of moving and allows people to move even if the local market has no stock.
But how do you create moving tickets. Oil was removed as a resource and we don't need to go to the trouble of reintroducing it. There are two solutions:
1. Make moving tickets cost 10wrm + 10 frm per quality level.
2. Make moving tickets cost 1q1 weapon + 1q1 food per quality level (airline food and fuel).
This adds more demand for resources and another sink for a1-q5 weapons. And another company type to spend our gold on. Not entirely sure what a Q6 or Q7 company would produce, but here is an idea:
In fact, you could do
Q1: 1 zone
Q2: 2 zones
Q3: 3 zones
Q4: 4 zones
Q5: 5 zones
Q6: 5 zones + 50 Health
Q7: 5 zones + 100 Health
Just saying,

First denied. Nice troll mate ROFL!@
I agree
.........you made me read the whole article.
just looks at the pictures!
lol 😃
haha xD Voted.
Beautiful.
And how about if just changing it for 5 cc per zone?
Or repair the economic module, but hope is lost.
5 per zone might be doable, though I'd probably make it even lower (and it's not just the cost of moving).
Of course this proposal would only solve the problem with being able to afford moving, RWs, RMs (3 for each at least) and MPPs would still remain too expensive.
Why did admin ever get rid of MTs....
You're naughty 😛
It'd be a good idea, though I've been put on a "No Flight" list due to Terrorism.
Who knew that if you throw a bottle of rum at an airport security guard, you'd be deemed a terrorist??
🙁
Just make moving free, end of problem and the best solution
just make moving free if you are a gold buyer lol
no thanks
May I suggest the implementation of FUs. Flying Unicorns.
1 pint of blood = 1 zone.
2 pints of blood = 2 zones
3 pints of blood = 3 zones
4 pints of blood = 4 zones
1 schooner of shit = 5 zones
I stopped at 4 pints of blood cos I don't know how much we can give away and still survive. I decided on the cost of zone 5 moving to help you guys. Since you're all full of it a schooner of shit shouldn't be hard to come by.
I humbly await your comments and improvements.
Get back in that sheep.
Meh you guys are all not thinking clear. What Plato really wants is this:
1 Week of you real life paycheck = 1 Zone
2 Weeks of you real life paycheck = 2 Zone
3 Weeks of you real life paycheck = 3 Zone
4 Weeks of you real life paycheck = 4 Zone
Donate 1 liver, your left testicle and a kidney = 5 Zone +
Careful, you might give him ideas.
What i can not understand is when i look at those real life meetups. You always see like 15+ programmers working for eRep. And the fact that they are so slow into rejuvenating and enhancing this game is beyond belief.
This game is starting to look like it was developed by EA. Just look how SimCity 2013 turned out, people got fired over it. Unless they are making some new game we do not know about, there should be no excuse why they can not listen to the public who PAY their salaries and implement something new every 2-3 months at least!
Looking through latest updates they are releasing something new quite a bit more often than that.
Pity much of it isn't really worth doing.
Start your own comment thread. This one is meant to be about my FU idea bitches.
Carl haha yea but you did say
"I humbly await your comments and improvements."
😃
And super, i do not consider adding a coma a update lol.......
Gotta lower your standards down to plato's.
