Possible end to "free" PPT :)

http://herebegames.com/StarGateWars/vie ... 057#837057

As I stated there (I could also have misread it wrong so don't go biting my head off) so if that system where to be put in place I am just wondering what people would think of it, if PPT where to be replaced by that system..

Me personally I would like it.. But what does everyone else think?

I think it wouldn't be all too good.

It will benefit farmers the most. people will go there, and just get farmed, not good for people who need PPTs in order to get a bit further in game.

i like both, but you can only do one kind of one a week, so no PPT for 4 days and "space" for 3 days. space should be the same length as PPT but for slightly less(so the Noob's can buy it)

Well I wouldn't mind if PPT was reduced to one a week

Or 3 days out of the week

Or 1 day a week..

I don't mind giving it a try, but I would rather keep PPT.

Simply put I use PPT to take time off from the game and build up some Naq.

Even if you cannot be massed on the "space" you can still be attacked and loose not only naq, but troops, and MS resources. (If I read the original post correctly...)

I agree...

Just leave the PPT system as it is...cause if this gets impleded, next time u'll look, no PPT or "space", only PPT u can buy with 10$....I hate this :wink:

PPT is needed in this game untill something ALOT better can be made, this simple isnt the answer, the idea isnt good enought.

But could be worked on.

Maybe i should change the title to possible end to FREE ppt. As the one for cash would remain

Anyway admin suggested it not me and i may have misread it.. Anyway whats the point of playing a game if for 50% of the time your not actually goign to play it?

I mean if Massa pulled over in the F1 race yesterday with more then 50% of the race remaining and he still won you wouldn't think that was fair..

The idea I think behind space is to make people play the game rather then just have a huge account leave it for a few days and login and some people prehaps profit off of it..

I play the game, and I do utilize PPTs around my personal life to their full potentional.. Maybe even a slight ajustment to the costs of PPT like say 10 times the resources and the alternative is this new space..

Also at the end of the day if Admin ever decided to change the system you would either like it or lump it. I know many would complain but your actually lucky to have "free" PPT's most games you either have to pay $10 or go on vacation mode for a break..

Why fix it if it aint broke? I seriously don`t get it...

To increase the cost would only screw the smaller players and to allow naq hits kinda defeats the purpose... An I mean what skin is it of admins bone if ppl go on ppt :? plenty of time ppl are on ppt and still around... Traiding, chating etc. etc. Lack of activity? heck we have the biggest war in history going on atm, what more do you want? Seems to me that the more you "force" ppl the more you loose them. Just look at the ascended server. If updates were ment to stimulate play up there... I cant say I see a positive result there. More like a negative one.

Bad idea imho... leave us our care free weekends for gods sake! we have RL too hehe
