Title: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: SirEmi on February 24, 2008, 06:00:18 PM This update is on SO Wars only.
- Stash amount in secret base now distracts your workers, they won't be able to steal your stash from the vaults however they have their eyes on the interest coming in. As long as you keep your stash amount below your workers amount, you wouldn't be affected in any way. - Once stash amount gets over the workers in the secret base this is what happens: Workers start to steal interest, depending on how much stash you have over the workers, e.g. 100 mil workers and 150 mil stash, then 150 / 100 => 50% of the interest is stolen. If you have 2% interest, you get 1%. You reach 0% interest whenever the stash is more then double the workers value. So fore each % the stash is over the workers amount, the more % of the interest is stolen. - No change to the interest or max interest amounts or how it is given Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: Mordecai on February 24, 2008, 06:16:50 PM Ok so to avoid this i just keep the amount of money in my stash below the amount of workers i have. Ok, when i first saw this today i was like "what!?" i didnt really get it but ok i do now
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: SirEmi on February 24, 2008, 06:26:48 PM Yes you have to keep the stash below the workers but if you go away for some time, it's no problem if the stash accumulates as longs as it's not over double the workers value you gain interest. E.g. you have 1.2 stash for each worker, only 20% of the interest is lost.

Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: SirEmi on February 24, 2008, 06:35:24 PM k nice change lost 70% of my income but i render planets will make that up so when are they coming out :wow: Yes that's correct planets should make up for the additional income, and this gives me time to work on the planets project and not change anything to the secret base. Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: jessiedog on February 24, 2008, 09:46:46 PM great update emi
cant say how much this will change things for the better. cant wait for planets :wow: Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: basill on February 24, 2008, 10:25:22 PM I want my money back for my gold account one of the main reasons I went gold was to get more interest.
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: Mordecai on February 24, 2008, 10:27:12 PM And you will basill but keep your workers above the creds in your stash
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: SirEmi on February 24, 2008, 10:27:20 PM I want my money back for my gold account one of the main reasons I went gold was to get more interest. You still get double interest if you are Gold. If it doesn't help, you could transfer your Gold to another server that doesn't have the change. Thank you. Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: Mordecai on February 24, 2008, 10:28:33 PM You mean transfer like give your gold account to your pro on another server so that pro doesnt have it or make it to where both have it. Because i joined PvE and i dont really want to buy gold account again but i still want gold on WARS
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: SirEmi on February 24, 2008, 10:30:49 PM You mean transfer like give your gold account to your pro on another server so that pro doesnt have it or make it to where both have it. Because i joined PvE and i dont really want to buy gold account again but i still want gold on WARS I'm making a feature in the account room, you will have to option once a month to transfer all remaining days of Gold to another account on the same server or another server. E.g. you have 60 days and decide to leave or switch server, you can take the Gold days with you or give it to someone else. Also for Gold account in accont room, option to change username once a month. User id remains the same. Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: Mordecai on February 24, 2008, 10:34:31 PM when will that be in affect
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: basill on February 24, 2008, 10:40:55 PM Yeah thats real useful if i have several trill in stash and several bil in workers I lose one hell of a lot of interest even if I take enough out to be below my workers.
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: Amagnon on February 25, 2008, 12:39:19 AM Yeah thats real useful if i have several trill in stash and several bil in workers I lose one hell of a lot of interest even if I take enough out to be below my workers. Everyone is going to be effected by this cap Basil - some players might not be effected right away as you have been though. The up side is that the AI guys economies arent running out of control anymore - meaning they arent going to cap out the game soon, and everyone else has some chance to hit the high ground now. Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: basill on February 25, 2008, 10:22:13 PM Nobody else has a chance now they can't support the workers to grow and if the get the segs to do that they will be attacked and zeroed before they can get the creds to protect it.
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: jessiedog on February 25, 2008, 10:34:55 PM you seem to be doing alright :12:
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: Silence444 on February 26, 2008, 12:24:28 AM any chance we could see a tech to reduce the % stolen? the greedy lil buggers r taking half my interest and im busy with school. i dont have the time to get my workers up right now and its kinda eating into my growth
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: Mordecai on February 26, 2008, 02:34:45 AM Just take your creds out enough so their less and you can continue getting intreast
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: basill on February 27, 2008, 02:14:32 AM Yeah jessie im doing ok but my growth was before the nerf and now even at my rank I have no chance to move up.

The up side is that the AI guys economies arent running out of control anymore - meaning they arent going to cap out the game soon, and everyone else has some chance to hit the high ground now. really? they don't have 10 times the workers we do? they aren't still making 10 times the money? this may be the only practical option , but that doesn't mean we have to like it, or believe its fair. cause it ain't. some people are way more affected than others. but thats what we get for falling behind or starting late. well, don't even this latest trick is going to stop me, i will find a way. :spider2: Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: Mordecai on February 27, 2008, 09:33:00 AM My friend basically hates this new rule. He's in the low rankings so he dont get much creds and he doesnt do missions so he dont get worker items and he hardly invests on workers because of the 2 cred per worker thing while he has lots of creds in his stash for his ships trying to get some intreast whlie he waits and with this new rule its all going away from him
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: jessiedog on February 27, 2008, 02:49:10 PM he should just spend a little bit on workers every day. it wont disrupt his current economy too much but will eventually make him much stronger and richer
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: the broken on February 27, 2008, 08:20:24 PM but if he does no missions he will max workers, this will really slow the top players growth down though, it will take a long time to max or even get my old econoy back but it will give new players chance to catch up and a better chance for the mid ranged players
Title: Re: Stash interest new mechanic - SO WARS Post by: jessiedog on February 27, 2008, 10:44:36 PM basically it just evens things out a bit :)
