The goal of the thread, was to make un-ascended accounts, be competitive. Not give newbies a walk-in-the-park. But someone that is say 300m in size and not ascended, be on a similar playing ground as someone whom is say 200-250m and a LG+1

Sorry but thats EXACTLY what your saying. Actually read what you wrote mate.

You want an unascended 300mill man account to be on even footing with a 250 mill man account thats a LG+1. There is only 50 mill difference and all that means is a few bill in income.

So all those ascentions and all those sacrifises are meaningless and worthless and without having done them the same account would be beyond the plague limit.

-Each Upgrade requires 1k GnR points to purchase
-Unique Tech
--Every unique tech level upgrade, requires 1k GR points to unlock it before purchasing
--Each level requires and additional 1k GR
---First Upgrade, 1k GR, 2nd upgrade 2k GR, 3rd upgrade 3k GR and so forth.
--The max amount of upgrades one can acquire is the same as the max number of ascensions.

TacticalCommander wrote:-Possible time limit between upgrade (at least unique tech) purchases
--At least 1 day, to prevent one from switching and fully upgrading between techs quickly
--Perhaps even make this 1 week, or even 2 weeks to match current ascension waiting.

About the only thing I can think of that would be good is a bank space increase. Yes I know we can use market turns but I'd consider making the starting bank a default 1trillion and leave it at that. Minimum bank size 1t, no matter how big or small your account.

Lore wrote:well if thats what your wanting then good luck.

We been asking for a way to play just 1 server instead of being forced to play two and admin has shut us down EVERY time without fail.

If you make it so, then I better get refunded all my ascention sacrifises because i never wanted to play ascended and still dont. Its crap, always has been crap, and more then likely will go out as crap.

I no longer have time for this 1 server of main yet alone 2 crappy games.
