Game Bank

[Colton]

Well I was just thinking about the upcoming updates to the main server and all the people that are worried about losing investments and all that. Well what if there was a new bank put in where you could get refunds for things that get removed/updated. The resources could be aloud to stay in there for as long as you want without being able to lose it until withdrawing. You would not be able to deposit anything in this bank nor lose anything in it.

An example could be the possible lowered cost of MS capacities, make a simple calculation in the programming that refunds you for whatever extra you put into your MS and funnel it all into the "Game Bank".


Hope you had fun reading, if you did at all Please leave your comments ^_^

I don't mean to sound harsh (honestly I really don't), but I think that people that have invested heavily in their MS will have to just put up and shut up. They chose to invest in their MS and it was their decision alone, and there's nothing wrong with that, but things change, costs get lowered, this happens also in RL, why should it be any different ingame?

Take for example your PC or laptop, whatever it is you use to play this game. Over the years the value drops, and when you look back you are astonished at how much it cost you then and how much it costs people now... but do you demand a refund on difference in costs..... no!

This game is supposed to be challenging. It's not meant to be here to give hand outs. This is exactly what it would be.... a hand out.

People have got to accept the fact that changes are being made and roll with them.

At the same point lowering the costs and difficulty to get things is a hand out to all those who don't have a large MS or a large Ascended account... Take the fact that MS's don't get removed when you ascend now... all those people who ascended and lost their MS's lost something.... those who spent loads on their ascended accounts could now start again and get their at a fraction of the initial costs...

Being seletive on who the hand outs are given too just causes animosity amongst the players...

I like this idea... the money deposited into this say from your MS would only be allowed to be spent on your account e.g. technologies/ Fleets/MS/Covert/AC levels

Also say once you do something like this you get 1 week to spend it or else its lost forever...

Thank you for feedback ^_^

Clarkey perhaps there could be some sort of a time setting sort of a thing so that if you invested alot into your mothership in say the month or so before the update comes out you could get refunded for extra costs in that month, although this may be a little harder to program.

I just really don't feel like wasting a ton of investments in stuff when I've only been playing 2 or 3 months >_< Prices on computers don't change from full price to half price in a month as far as I know

No - clarkey's spot on!

You buy a new car and the second you drive it off the forecourt it loses £1,000+ of it's value - so if you were to trade it in the next day, you wouldnt get full value back.

Every few weeks somebody moans about how it's not fair that a change has 'spoilt their investment'.....

MAN-UP! The game is a damn sight easier to play/grow/rebuild than it once was.
