Ascending Bank Idea

Since the last update prevents overbanking, it will make ascention nearly imposssible for most people that dont have 200 bil bank space which is kinda required to make a good new start.

My idea is to add a special ascention bank to store naq. You can only deposit, and not withdraw. Naq there would only be for ascending. It would then be taken out and given to the player at ascention. Its a simple idea, could just be another input box in the bank page titled "ascention bank" or something, and a button "deposit". It could be unlimited or have a limit at around 200 bil or something around there.

Those of us that don't have huge massive armies with huge bank spaces would really appreciate some update like this. I dont wanna waste months rebuilding or beg friends to hold my naq for weeks.

I agree there wouldn't be any risk involved, but at the moment I cant see myself ascending for a LONG time and most people will have the same problem to. This is not a problem for those that are allready ascended many times or have big bank sizes, but imagine what to do if you dont have that.

200bill? I could fill that up in under a day. :? And it wouldn't cover my ascension costs either. God forbid we have risk when ascending.

But on the suggestion, why not base it upon normal bank size. Make it triple the size of a normal bank. Makes more sense to me.

1) good alliances can help
2) there is something called a ppt

a good alliance can hold naq for you ............a good alliance can then send that naq back when u have ascended and happen to be on ppt

you can do everything you used to do with limitless bank space

you just have to actually think some..........GOD FORBID you have to do that ....geez
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil,
is good men do nothing.

sounds weird ... well, i know of some players that just buy weps and "store" teh naq in weps .... and if you just have at least ONE friend with ss ... just broker him the stuffs and after ascension he rejets ... not a great deal i guess ...

Thats a good idea for when you want to ascend.
But what happens when you want to ascend for the first time how would you store naq if your bank limit is not so big.

How about when you get into the G&R piont range you get the bank but once you ascend it is there for ever.


Thanks

would you actually believe that the first 3 months of the ascended server didnt have overbanking or broker? we did manage just fine through

for all it matters build up your UP get a larger army size train more miners which just so happens to increase your bank size and then ascend may cost more than the minimum but hey theres a good start to the ascended server too ..... strategy is the aim of the game not cheap tactics and minor cheats
