Changes Coming?
Lady Silver
Good Day!
According to eRepublik forum we will see some changes in the following two months. Here is the information:
Dear Citizens,
Over the next 2 months we plan to roll out a series of changes in order to put more emphasis on the strategy part of the game and address several of eRepublik’s issues as voiced by the Community.
We are presenting a sketch roadmap of the things we are currently working on so you can both have an overview of the things to come and have your say on it.
A new Industry together with its correspondent New Resources will be added to the eRepublik Economy. Countries will be able to fight for the New Resources as part of a fresh Resource Wars event, starting in the following weeks. This remake of the 2014 Resource Wars will bring different rules to the table and a greater focus on strategy and balancing.
The new Industry will significantly change the way the battles are fought and allow new users to matter from their first days, without impacting the fun of the loyal players base.
Once the Resources are allocated and the event is over, bonus productivities of the regions will change, the rare resources regions will have better bonuses than the common ones.
Players’ Companies will no longer travel with them. Companies will be established on firm ground and benefit from the bonuses of the Region/Country they are based in. Taxes will be calculated accordingly and Companies will be subject to trade embargos once again. Players will get to decide where to base their current Companies.
Region specific taxes will follow enabling a higher taxation of occupied territories as spoils of war. As a next step we will be looking at the introduction of Regional Governments with elected officials.
Increased revenue for Country accounts by extending taxation to all the revenue base (Combat Orders and Currency medals), enabling governments to better fund Military Campaigns among other things.
Travel will suffer changes too, and will no longer be based on arbitrary zones but on Real World distances.
Players that fight in closely contested rounds will get more Prestige Points.

I am especially interested in ' the introduction of Regional Governments with elected officials.'
🙂
Also what are 'Currency Medals'?
the medals that no longer pay in gold, such as TP
Thought as much, so now the 'Meta Government' will be able to steal...cough, cough tax my BH medals?
CO's anyway. we should see a lot more baronies emerge due to that.
time to crawl back into the chrysalis and evolve again..

Fun times ahead. One of the few change announcement I really like.

Can't wait for some change 😉
Apply for citizenship in Serbia is all I read.
We may yet see a democratic resurgence promoted by Game Mechanics. Regional governments indeed, 🙂.
Beta had regional governments. I was elected mayor twice.
Well, that is very interesting. Thanks for keeping us informed.
