ECONOMY
Whisky Warrior
Admins...
do something with economy!
This current system DOESN't work!
Weapons industries
q1-q6 weapons? What do we need them for? What's their purpose?
q7 weapons is the only usable quality. Even with that, with high salaries, and low bonuses, even that industry doesn't bring profit all of the time!
Why should we invest loads of gold (you discontinued company upgrades, and even with that discounts it is not so profitable) to get back few gold/month?
Food industries
q1-q7 food...
everything ok... but
loads of space in storage... i really don't need to save in q7 form just because of storage!
House industries
q1-q5 houses... ok, i find this only industry that has it's purpose... but, when you compare this wellness increase with house from blitzkrieg pack... you will easily find out this:
to increase your wellness for 580 well (q1-q5 house)
you will need around 23500 cc WEEKLY! So, in one month you need almost 100k cc to keep your houses active.
That would be great, but there is one +2000 well house you get from blitzkrig pack... and it costs around 150k cc or 15€(pack price). 4 times more wellness for only 50% more cc you need for it.
q6 and q7 houses? Still waiting... over 2 years.. no comment.
Aircraft industries
only q1... price per hit 27-28cc... for medal you need approx 80k dmg... that's around 8k wellness in my case... if i shoot with weapons i will make 100k dmg. and it will cost me 800*27=21600 cc for the weapons... while reward for it is 30g/around 13500 cc...
really no need to use them... and when they introduce bigger quality weapons, we will get the same situation like on ground. noone will use anything but highest quality. And you can wipe your ass with q1 aircraft missiles!
in my oppinion, there should be only one Q of this weapons... and it has to be Q1, q7, q10 or whatever you want to call it. And it has to give more than 20% difference... i propose 100... shoot with weapons - you get 100% more dmg.
...
conclusion...
I would do DELETE economy part of the game and change it completely.
If i was owner... i would demolish every company, disolve whole server, return invested money (full ammount) to players... and re-do economy from scratch. You will have whales that have money for new economy, and it would be enough of products for whole e-world
I would have:
only one q of ground weapons
only one q of air weapons
only one q of food
but more q of weapons factories. for example:
q1 food company would produce 1 food
q2 food company would produce 2 food
q3 food company would produce 4 food
q4 food company would produce 8 food
q5 food company would produce 16 food
q6 food company would produce 32 food
q7 food company would produce 64 food
everything goes the same for weapons factories...
HOuse industries would be changed only for wellness houses increase
Did i say i would completely throw away RAW companies? Guys, this is the game. start acting like it is a game... give us to create stuff from nothing 🙂
We don't need raw companies, because this is not a real life, but a game!
It is far from what they said 9 years ago:
nothing from this statements are right... maybe they were right once, but they are not now...
I would add moving tickets companies, DAB companies etc.. and... MOVE THE ORGS FROM THE GAME COMPLETELY! Or give us all chance to create and use them!
I would re-introduce work skill...
How would that work? Nice 😛
if deafult for newbie is 1... than more skilled workers would have 1,5, 2 or 3... so one skilled worker would be worthj more than low skill one...
think about it... search for that workers, msgs, friendships you make while doing it... 😃
And PROFIT!
there are so many possibilites... only you have to decide in what direction should we go, and cooperate with players to make erepublik great again... 😃
you have to do something... this golden hen is about to die.

I agree. For two years the game was held by strings, but now it is really notice that the game is falling quickly.
I have difficulty making a profit from sales, I have a hard time getting employees, there are no regular COs like last year. It is falling fast this begginning of year.
And this withdrawal from Croatia is speeding up the process. If there is one more big country to give up and they can close the server ...
Buying all the packs to survive in the game is not an option!
Vvv.
Something has to be done. TBH I think they are preparing a new game and they doing some tests with this one... maybe they will introduce something to test.

"only one q of ground weapons
only one q of air weapons
only one q of food"
Stupid idea.
Do you use q1 or q4 weapons? Or you use q7 or you don't use it at all? Does it matter if you use q1 food or q7 food? Result is the same, isn't it?
Remove Q7 and make other Q usefull, not delete them.
Same with food.
in V1 food Q had sense. just copy it and you are done.
Weapons? I've bought lower Qs for rockets/boosters in the times divisions made sense and you did not get 1000 boosters per day.
Remove number of uses from weapon to make 1 use per every Q and they make sense.
Make regen work off 'you can eat X food' rather than X hp and you have it fixed as well.
Making different Q companies power creep over other ones makes all low tier companies useless anyway.
TL😃R
Current version is shitty.
Change make it tad less shity but still shitty.
If the changes from the article were implemented I'd rage about stupid changes that dont aim at the root of the problem.
well, what's stupid for you isn't for everybody else..
if you have better suggestion, write it down. I'm trying to make it simple, not complicated. Why to use that q1-q6 weapons for materials for booosters/rockets when you could make rocket/booster factory. Whole economy is to get rid off and start from the scratch again. Small improvements are just not right and is useless...
You know that rocket/booster factory uses WQ1-WQ5 (IIRC without WQ6) as a fuel to create rockets/boosters?
Long time ago rockets were pretty good (and boosters even better!), and it driven low quality weapon prices up.
There even was an idea of creating EB factory that would consume FQ1-FQ5, that IMO was pretty interesting one.
"if you have better suggestion, write it down"
IMO waste of breath. A lot of people did, but Admins were and always will be deaf, especially if you tell them that they should mechanize something that so far people have been buying with RL money (or that were created by player earlier, but then they monetized it - look at IK/Maveric - total bullshit - they didn't knew what they were doing, then they knew so they shamelessly monetized it etc.).
Even if I had good idea that would not mess entire world (like V2 did), admins are still too lazy to implement it if it doesnt suck off the whales.

if all people will be posible to make cc and gold enough from economy then admins will have no possibility to ern money from packs - as less and les will by them...
not true... 😃 People spend their RL money to finance companies... listen, nobody says companies have to have prices like they do now... but only thing players want is to have profitable companies... And energy brs factory should never happen.. that's something you have to buy from pluto,, 😛
Good ol times when MUs werent a thing, but people created MUs and financed MU companies to have (any!) weapon to fight using their RL money - as a group.

I totally agree.

The problem starts at 2012 then they nerf the bazooka and create rocket,missiles and nukes.Before 2012 anyone could take a battle medal even campaing medal with every 2-3 months before the division mechanic and q4 trainings and all this without using real money.Personally I believe the first version of the game was the best version of the game with the health cap and 30 mins max per day but anyone who used real money in the game was crying about that cause anyone could write history and that has to changed for the benefit of those who pays real money.
The rest I am reading now is only details of the outcome...
I really liked old division system (5k exp D1), as they worked basically as kindergarten, not like a proper way to play the game.
Without IK/Maveric new players were able to hunt BH using rockets - even DAY1 (!!! - I've done it few times - day1BH!).
Q4 Trainings IMO weren't that bad either. IMO this moment of the game along with some kind of str rubber banding mechanic that would work a little like V1 str did, or some kind of weekly quests that gave you 1% of the strength of the strongest player in erep etc. that would keep everyone competitive.
New div -> IK -> Maveric was the biggest downhill to me (and I did a lot of new player shenanigans before IK / new div were a thing. From that it was just constant downhill.
I agree that certain parts of the V1 were good and I'd like to see them put back in the game (or put back in meaningful way, not like token-mechanics).
PS:
Bazooka nerf?

Using q4 weapons in tp battles is better for a lots of player, including me.
