Plague losses

just a question about the Plague, as it says in the message & updates
(see below), when does the amount you lose decrease ,because i am
losing 6 or 7 extra per turn & this has not changed since i went over
the 100mil mark & i have gone past the 100k per day or 2000 per turn
loss.

quote the message you get in game

(Due to the extreme overpopulation within your realm, your population
has developed some type of plague. You know that 50,000,000 population
can easily exist within your borders.
You also know that double that seems to be safe and sanitary, if not
comfortable for the residents. Your medics estimate that if you do not
take action, you will lose close to 100,000 population per day (of the
population over the sanitary limit. Those under are safe)! This time,
2,104 of your population - from all walks of life - have died, and been
burned for sanitary reasons, also slowing the spread of the disease.)

quote game Game update

(Plauge
Plague still happens above 2x the natural limit of 50,000,000 units per
below. It now, though, kills a set number of units per turn (currently
just over 2000) so effectively reduces your net UP while above 100Mil
units...You CAN still grow over this limit, it is just a bit harder ..)

it is still increasing latest amount is Plague!! 2,817 reported dead.

Just go a little under the limit and sell for cash, Jason doesnt want people to grow so n00bs can get up there in a few years.

well it reached Plague!! 3,228 reported dead. per turn & stopped increasing, but then i tried increasing my UP, guess what, yep you got it, dead stat increasing again.

so there is a CAP on how much you can grow by above the CAP (100 mill)
:roll:

CAP on the CAP

well it looks like its back to selling naq for $$

yep M8 (Tok`ra) you were right. :D

well i went by what it said in the rules/up-dates/messages ingame & changed my whole stratigy, well that was a waste of time. appears the above dosn't apply, must have been changed without telling anyone, but that dosn't help me :roll: NOW does it after i have done it. not like i can undo it :wink:

that does suck

I don't like any un-announced update that involves a change in the game code

that changes any formula including the plague formula even if it does not affect me, I would like to see text explaining reason for any update and the new formula etc.........

that goes for anything NOX, plague, raid, whatever if he is going to change stuff he needs to tell people

We been complaining about this for some time now. It always sucks to commit to a stratigy just to find out its useless because someone didnt bother to tell everyone something changed, or only chose to tell a select few.

Maybe some one can work this out, but i think there is more of a problem.

like i said the amount of dead stopped increasing at this figure ( Plague!! 3,228 reported dead.)

But then i increased two planets up by 999 on each, then the death rate started to increase by 6 extra per turn it is now as of this post time still increasing a this rate & is at Plague!! 3,374 reported dead. ( so an increase of 146 extra per turn thats 7008 extra per day so far.

I tryed to work out how much my up increased by. by doing single upgrade on the up & seeing what it changed by. I did it again to confirm the amount but this time nothing changed. so i tryed again this time it did change but not by the smae amount as the first time. so yet agin i did another single upgrade, this time no change, tryed agin no change & again & again but this time it did change but only the same as the second amount i recorded.

so i don't know exactly what the amount should be but i am sure its not 7000. In this case by me upgrading my up, I am decresing my growth from the first level i reported the death rate had stopped increasing at.

This makes no sence at all. :roll:

Just save up a LOT and get your UP over 500k thru raw and planets.

Hell, push for 1mil total, see how bad it screws up then.

I say you should do that, lol, see if it makes the game crash.

That'd be funny.


If nothing else, you'd awlays have UU to sell then.

And if you wana donate your extra UU feel free to broker me :D :p

Is there anyone from admin/ Mods reading this, the loses are now Plague!! 3,487 reported dead. & still increasing. so that works out the daily loss has increased by 12,432.

so my increasing my UP by (what i have been told is about 3000) causes me to lose 12,432 & increasing

b4 anyone says have i contacted admin, yes, mark got back to me, its not in his job.

yes i have e-mailed urgent, no responce

as you can see there are quite a few issues/bugs here (from all my posts)

It would just be nice for someone to say yes we are looking at it.

Better yet, so he cant be accused of funding one side over the other, he takes that over 95mil ammount, and splits it between the two of us.
