Any other time and the repair/planet loss just don't weigh up to the DMU gained. And like I said, this always happens when I'm offline. So I have no chance at decent farming, and as an added bonus, I get farmed myself. I really love this superweapon. Now can we please get rid of it?

Also, if it was 'delivered upon next login', 65-80% of the dmu would never even be distributed probably :?


AFAIK, the DMU is only distributed among ACTIVE players. Not sure what active means but I'm pretty sure most of the DMU would be collected.


Hmm... perhaps the superweapon could be replaced by a tax of some sorts, kind of like the chaos tax, mabye 5% that is distributed to all active players.. worked out somehow so you get it on loggon once a week or something, definately help everyone get set up and 5% or even 10% isnt a huge amount for most players..

The times like 7 am for me... bit of a pain in the ass, think its worth the dmu though... hmmm :S, either the time needs to change or be delivered on logon... or perhaps have a bank system (Not an actual bank... but more when we had the bank overflow, so that it seeps out at like 5% to 20% per turn but can be unbanked... still can't bank dmu as such though.

sleipner, i also have to disagree with you, i built a 20 bill strike in preparation for yesterday, got on an HOUR after the SW was sold and still farmed 80 bill. now to beat the rank mod, sell you strike weps before the turn changes and just rebuy after the turn, you almost always get 130% when attacking up

Like I said, this ASW DMU always seems to come when I'm asleep, so getting on an hour after it's sold is also not an option. And as for beating the rank mod like that, it would cost me some 2B to do that. It'd take a bunch of good targets to make up for that alone if you calculate in repair costs.

2bill? Sorry, it costs me about 40bill to do that. But yet, I still made plenty of profit. The time that your on is just you personally. The game can't be changed because one person is in a different time zone.
