Server Economy Completely Broken

Hunter Evans 11 years ago updated by Jan Babor 11 years ago 5
I think the servers economy is just completely broken. Broken enough for a wipe of money I would definately say.


I think the lottery has ruined the server economy. People who win the lotto, will then spend the money they won on the lotto, and win more, and more, and more. Now we have these moguls on the server with hundreds of millions of dollars.

Until a good lotto can be implemented i think it should be taken out until it can be properly fixed.

I also think the vehicle prices for vehicles like the blackhawk, pavehawk, ghosthawk, mv22, and several others, should be lowered by a good amount. It is currently only lotto winners who can win these helicopters, and the fact that a 6.5 minigun ghosthawk costs 3x more than a venom with missiles and dual 7.62s that can be controlled by the pilot makes NO sense. I really think vehicle prices on these types of vehicles should be toned down a bit to make it availiable for people who dont grind the lotto to buy. It is just way too frustrating to save up all that money to get a vehicle like this, and you may not even get it with the very common blow up on spawn glitch. And staff wont even comp if you have sufficent proof, which is ridiculous.

Basically if you want HALF the vehicles in the server you have to know someone who is rich, or you can spend hours grinding military bases and selling guns for a chance to win at the lotto.

Does anyone else not see a huge issue with this?

I understand your frustration, we are working on all issues and configurations. It's a very big game for only two persons who do this on our spare time to fix all issues, I ask of you to have patience we are trying to balance the game, it takes some time to go through 800 different vehicle classes. I'm working on some other issues at the moment but will encounter the lottery afterwards. I'm on vacation so it might take some days.
Are you maybe just asking for a wipe, because you lost all your money to exploding vehicles? I'm not exactly rich and only ever won 250k in the lottery. My friends who won money gave me some of their poptabs. I don't think a wipe would be good.
I think the lottery needs a fix so people don't win so much money (50m etc..). The prices need some fixing but i wouldn't lower any of them.

The EU2 server will get a full wipe tonight and EU1 and EU3 are on hold until further notice.
Are on hold as in they're going to be down?
+1
On hold until we can afford to put it online again. This is a high priority case so hopefully not that long.

We just decided to establish a kickstarter to try to fund a server in north america and a new one in europe. We'll keep you updated on the facebook page.
