BUILDING PRICES & BUILD TIMES
Taking into account the shorter round times and smaller family sizes then do you think:
A: Some of the building price should be lowered slightly.
B: Some of the build times should be lowered slightly:
C: That some of the effects should be increased slightly.
My thinking is that in the “Old Days” a family could have 4 or 5 bankers pouring money into the family, meaning you could afford to do things like building laser traps / big population jumps / huge fleet jumps. Now however with less players and less round time you don’t have the funds for those things, especially not if your family only has one banker.
Years ago with 4 bankers in a family you could afford to build laser traps.
Now with maybe 1 banker in a family you can’t.
Taking into account there are not 3,4,5 bankers in a family any more then wouldn’t it make sense to lower some of the building costs or change their effects slightly.
For example make CF’s produce a little more per tick.
Reduce the build cost of lasers to make them a little more accessible.
Reduce the cost or build time on TO maybe.
With shorter rounds and less players the weight is all on 1 banker to make the money, that 1 banker needs to replace 3 or 4 bankers from the old days, so it seems to make sense to lower their building costs / building times / building outputs.
The same applies for things like OCT / END both of which get super expensive to build.
Maybe I’m talking rubbish? But perhaps lowering some of the building prices or increasing their effects would allow a smaller number of players to have bigger games again, you know.
Bigger fleets / bigger wars / bigger NW / bigger population, just because certain things are cheaper to build, faster to build, produce more.
Maybe rather than making 1 Iron a tick a MF could make 2.
Maybe rather than making 1 Oct per tick we could make 2.
As stated this allows a bigger level of game play but with a smaller number of players.
Do you as a player think any of the building costs / times / outputs need changing?
If you could change any of the above features what would you change?
Thanks.
