Economy Upgrades

[sgtsammac]

Alright guys, how would you like economy upgrades to be done?

• As they currently are.
  
• As they currently are but with a few changes to cost and what you get from it.
  
• As they were prior to the reset but at 5% rather than 10%.
  
• As they were prior to the reset.
  
• Or....

I think it should be something of a drop every time, like the first 10k gets you 10%, next is 8%, 6%, etc... just an idea.

I don't really care which system we use, but, if we keep the current system, eliminate the total income cap part. We are already capped by the tier system and how many countries we control. If we go back to the old system, then the income cap should be more fluid. Possible equation:

Income = Number of countries/10 x 5000000.

Also, the original price you give the country (for example 5.5k) sticks with it throughout all upgrades. It shouldn't be that way because you can always fix up a country from bad economy to good economy, no matter what.

Also, people who start in locations full of low paying countries will always be lesser in power than one that starts in an area of first world high payers.

Maybe, we shouldn't go with numbers so low as 5.5k but set all prices between 6.5k-7.5k so that it didn't matter where you start/what you conquer and so that final economy tier of the country was relatively equal to other countries, no matter if third world or first.

This would also bump all existing 6.5k-prices to 6.5k, if we go through with this. I personally think this would equal out opportunities for many (aka rodrig in Africa could be equal to Icy or me without owning many more countries.)

I say no more changes. It'd be nice, if like prok said, we could equalize all countries at the top. Then again, this system encourages more conquest, which I think is what mal was going for.

Wait... I'm guessing my suggestion was taken or something?

[sgtsammac]

No.. Its just that no action has been taken yet.

[ProkAdama]

So are we using current method or what?

[sgtsammac]

"No.. Its just that no action has been taken yet."

That implies that NOTHING HAS BEEN CHANGED YET.

Try some common sense, at this time we are still using the old method.

[Sgtsammac]

Prok has a point actually, I'm ok with bumping countries up to 6.5k. First world countries and those with high potential can be 7.5k. It'll take effect in the next income as a boost in the global economy, so it's not like you'll get back pay or something.

While I do want more conquest, it'll be hard for a low worth area nation to expand on an unusually small budget.

So as Prok said "So are we using current method or what?"
Sorry for the late post (I've been wondering about this.)

Economies will be improved as follows.

Tier 0: Base Income
Tier 1: $100,000 ~ imparts a 50% increase in territory income.
Tier 2: $200,000 ~ imparts a 50% increase in territory income.
Tier 3: $400,000 ~ imparts a 100% increase in territory income.
Tier 4: $800,000 ~ imparts a 100% increase in territory income.
Tier 5: $1,600,000 ~ imparts a 100% increase in territory income.
