Title: Black Holes
Post by: NightShadow on January 21, 2008, 01:47:10 AM
Well I'm complaining cause the BH reward for turns has been reduced,considering that there are so many out there. I don't think that is true I rarely find BH's anymore and I bet you could ask a couple of the top 30 guys and they would agree with me also, If so happen by the grace of god find one they give me a max of 100 turns some times,see as i said some times, even for the high bills, 0o yes even the high bills.It's messing up the balance of the game since ppl can still donate for turns.I mean either make more BH's or put back the 450 turn reward plz..   :)

By the way I didn't know where to put this so...

The reason for dwarfing them untill u would reach higher power level was cause there were supposed to be very many of them; but there are almost none to be had; I'd say if the game is to remain balanced either remove bholes and turns donations altogether or make them the way they were before this round.

I think it makes it more fair, as for those who aren't online as much as others...

And the reward hasn't changed since last round...

Just devide the fleet power by 35.000.000

Which means you would get the max reward of 450 turns at a fleet power of: 15.750.000.000

It was the same like this last round, eventhough there are less black holes, there are way more other encounters, so stop whining if you ask me...

More encounters in total -> less Black Holes, as you need less to travel for the same amount of encounters to find...
I might disagree with Sir Emi from time to time, but with this I think he did it the right way, to still keep it at same level...

Just remember, last rounds you needed to look at every quadrant to find 1 or 2 encounters, I don't know about you guys, but I'm almost finding 1 or 2 encounters at every planet at the moment, so you need less turns to travel / search for them...

Just sharing my opinion :)

I'll take a look at the black hole rarity to see if it can balanced some more...

Thank you.

well i don't know whats going on with this, i found a black hole yesterday, found one earlier today, and thats about it. not good at all. a fair amount of other encounters and NO black holes. and very few turn items too.

Everything that has to do with turns has a rarity value, this includes black hole encounters & turns items. Please post feedback here on what the amount of black hole encounters should be, e.g. 1/100, 2/100 and I'll try to balance them some more.

Thank you.

What is the current rate Emi that would help us make a reasonable suggestion.

The average for me this round has been between 0 and 3 bholes/ day, just like it's been for most people ; the higher the top players the more bholes should be in the mid ranks
