Economic Issues !

[Nhezin]

Hello,

Would I like to leave a record on the economy in space.

It is very easy to make money by buying items at a station and selling others.

I believe this destabilizes a little game as you can in two days have almost every item in the game, see everything.

Of course the game for me is pure interpretation, very good.

I think that could regulate to be the most difficult acquisition of money.

Thank you all !

See everything in two days???? I've flown in Mercenary for 5 years and still haven't seen everything!
(You do know that only a fraction of the systems are shown on your map right?)

All items in game???? We don't even know what items is in the game. Some can't even be bought!

(I assume that you talk about Legacy)

Hi,

I'm talking about Mercenary, at least the items mentioned in the manual.

Being the espaceships, cannons, terrainwalker, bulid cronstuction, mantis, theses, megaton etc ... i see and buy alls.

In a few days.

Now talking about the universe I believe yes that is great and is impossible see all.

In Mercenary, some random ecomonic events will happen mentioned in the News section. Prices may drop or increase in consequence. In EL, the economy is more complex.

If you want it more difficult:
Because it's too easy to keep high cash amounts that are never at risk, then decide to only keep little cash and invest the remaining in some goods. They will be subject to fluctuations making your activities more uncertain, if that's what you want

Mercenary has ridiculously easy money making via some specific trade routes and items; it is possible to make a billion (1 000 000 000) credits in a three hour session - quite therapeutic but it makes money irrelevant in the game.

Vice has worked extremely hard to remove as many gameplay 'spoilers' as possible in the new game ... Legacy; finding 'stuff' and making a living is much more of a challenge and more central to gameplay.

Of course, in Mercenary you can always choose to do things the hard way and not take advantage of the spoiler shortcuts.

Since the Evoverse (Legends - Mercenary - Legends) is a sandbox there are lots of other things to do as well (after you make your fortune, create (and store) your dream military ship, civ fighter, trader ship, explorer ship) - there's a list of 30+ suggested things to do here: http://www.starwraith.com/forum/viewtop ... 5&p=187530 - look at the eighth post from the top - about two screens down
