ok, this has probably been suggested already, but not in the past few pages, so here goes:
everyturn only a few k of mercs is put into the merc market, and in minutes their all gone, so I suggest; every turn instead of 20ish k, put 50ish k.

thoughts? I KNOW someone will have a problem with this lol.

Well even if more are put, it'll be a run to get them as fast as possible xD your 50k mercs will go away as fast as the 20ks, so I don,t see a difference..

Yeah, cuz I know that they'll go away quick, but even still, the higher the number of avaliable mercs there are, then the more people can get.

or the more those ppl who buy them can get. it doesn't solve the problem...it only gives those rich few more to buy leaving slow ppl with nothing still.

well, actually, the reason why I posted this was cuz when ever I try to buy mercs, my computor has trouble conecting to sgw cuz so many others are buying them at once lol

until very recently it was only 3k mercs per turn - so count yourself lucky. As the universe has more 'factions' then it is more likely that mercs will be harder to get.

i would agree, we must have more mercs added to the market. the inavaliability of them on the market are getting insane. within minuts it is gone.

well, I have a fairly fast connection and I have seen mercs appear and then saw 10k UU disappear at once, think about it, you buy in 999 increments meaning you would buy 9990 mercs if you were to have 10 people do it at once, this leads me to believe that people are buying mercs with a tamper since it was an even 10k vanishing. opinions?

Why not just make mercs unlimited on the market.

I mean, What does it matter really? Do they need to be so rare that you have to click a million times just to get a few k? NO. Make them unlimited that way the big guys cant steal anything and the newbies can have a chance at getting some.

ahh maybe we could have mercs more avalable to players baised on rank such as the top % of players have only a certin number to buy, but as you go down in rank they become more accessable for players to buy, this would allow the smaller players to get mercs without being beaten out by the biger ones.
it could also be baised apon the number of UU that you have.

no one has any uu these days it all gets raided

anyway your rank is not your penis size

any high ranked player can sell 1 stat to make rank go down
