I think this would only work in certain cases. The people who really really burn through AT's are the people who have the millions of MSN contacts who can simply, at will, put it in their MSN name for a tonne of AT's. This would slow the problem, I certainly agree. But it wouldn't work too well. I could be wrong.

The AT sellers will take those 10k AT's, turn around and sell them. The people who use AT's, will still simply use them. I think this would be a temporary stimulus, for I'm not even sure if it would be a month. Once again, I could be wrong.

Just my thoughts, sadly, I have no constructive criticsm myself. All pessimism here. =P

~HellFire



THe heart of the problem, as it always has been since along time, there are just TO many ATs.


If the ats are limited, how is that going to drop their prices? That's going to make them get even more expensive...

Re: Stargatewars needs to have a recession

I say no on recession.

I for one use the game as a way to calm down from real life and if I see a recession in the game, it'll just be a reminder of what the hell is happening out here. And I don't want reminders.

I personally like the prices of the attachs. Makes UU cheaper. So I can buy more. Since I sell attack turns, limit the turns then so I can make more. I'll buy even more UU.

ok think about it though hellfire, majority of trades occur on the main forum market and majority that happen from ingame contacts and friends from my experience those players actually sell for lower as either they want to get rid of quickley or they are not aware of current rates.

to answear some of the other questions, no there isnt too many attack turns, no we shouldnt limit them we just need to keep it at a reasonable price and keep it under control, like any free market mfc there are still rules and regulations.

That's a good question, considering the checks were like $15. :lol:

Sorry BrDavs but the $$ spenders would not like that... Only a select few of us havent spent a dime on this game... I personally wouldn't like a reset, cause I like the game how it is at the moment. Next update I might be right behind you on it...

Only a select few? I can think of at least 10 people on my msn right now that regularly complain about people who spend $$. I can also think of only a handful in EPA that actually spend any $$.

if even that, i don't think there are people in EPA who spend $$, one or two may spend like $20 here and there but no big spenders.

2 common misconceptions

1. more people spend $$ then play for free.

2. this game can or would survive without $$ players.
