Fix the eco modul

Hi,

This article is a call for admins to add normal functioning, sophisticated economic module in the game.
Many players have left, not playing this game because it's missing here.

Many small countries do not have the opportunity to become a military superpower.
Allow us to become an economic superpower. Fix the economic module.

What do you mean "fix the economic module"? They can't fix something when it's not broken. Economic module in this game represents RL economy in every sense. You have great corporations which are in RL funded by banks and in game by buying gold. You have supply and demand. If there is a demand, the price goes up. If you control resources, you can afford cheaper products. If you have more citizens, you have more consumers. Just like in RL. Those who can adapt will live and those who don't will die. Economic module is not broken but the only thing they can do in order to improve players experience in that field is to abolish economic module and make players buy weapons and equipment from the game and not from other players. Just like in guerilla fight. You'll get stable prices and no market fluctuations but then the players wont be able to run their own businesses. The only thing left which looks like economy would be monetary market. And then they'll have to abolish organizations and erase all of them from game so citizens can have equal opportunity on the market.

The bottom line is the economy module is not broken. It has a system error and the only way to fix it is to start from scratch.

From what I know, different countries have their own currencies in real life. This is one of the things that are different between the RL economy and ingame economy.

Dimitrij lvanov Day 2,020, 00:35

Yes. Tell that to Germany, France, Greece, Spain, Italy and other Euro countries ; )

Boy Pick Up Day 2,020, 00:36

Then they could use their old currencies... It's just the simplest way to adapt.

Vincenzo Roque Day 2,020, 00:51

Yes, and what's happening to Europe these days. Last I heard, they are having problems in their economy

Dimitrij lvanov Day 2,020, 01:00

Last I heard erep is having problems in their economy too ; )

Vincenzo Roque Day 2,020, 02:01

Isn't that the point? erep is having problems with economy which is what admin should fix

the Dentist Day 2,020, 04:57

you are fckin kidding right? you should go outside in the RL.

OneJuan Day 2,020, 07:22

How about make it easier for the none VISA MASTERCARD AMEX players!!! it is really hard for a small country to fight agains european CreditCard players... plus every day you need more and more gold for less currency!!!! thats a start then we can get into more details!!!

Dimitrij lvanov Day 2,020, 07:40

Dudes you gotta chill out. I didn't say it's fair. I just said it's not broken.

@OneJuan
"It's really hard for a small country to fight against European Credit card players." What's the strongest country in erep? Serbia. In RL Serbia is like a third world country compared to France or Italy. And yet it conquered them despite the fact that Serbs buy very little amounts of gold and "westerners" are in position to buy much more. But Serbia responded in the only way poor countries can. Just go out and find some new players. make a baby boom and keep those newcomers interested in game like Serbs did.

@ Vincenzo
Erep is having problems with economy not because the module is broken but because that's the way the things are. It never worked perfectly. Three years ago all company owners worked without any profit and were preparing for one major battle to sell their stocks. You can't ask for something to be repaired just because you're not good at it and want to change it so it suits you.

OK gentlemen, let's say I agree with you and economy module really has to be repaired. What exactly do we want to repair? Let's say we have the power to change economy module. What would we do? How would it look like after those changes?

Gavra Munja Day 2,020, 01:38

First do tell what's wrong with the economic module, offer a solution and maybe admins will listen to u. This is just an article to get subs, but without giveaways or (half)naked girls...

the Dentist Day 2,020, 05:04

whats wrong? seriously? if i start telling you whats right i will have less work than telling you whats wrong

Gavra Munja Day 2,020, 05:39

Then tell me how would u fix it? Otherwise, it's just empty talk...

the Dentist Day 2,020, 05:52

as i said in comment below, cou CAN`T fix what does not exist

Dimitrij lvanov Day 2,020, 07:42

Well if you can't fix it why are we making this conversation? Gavro, nije što si Srbin ali apsolutno si u pravu. Ovi likovi samo navikli da kukaju na admine i to bez ikakvog razloga. Samo da bi skupili glasove i pretplate.

Economic module should be revive

ArmY1948 Day 2,020, 03:08

My 2 cents:

1. Implement lending and borrowing contracts:
- 2 players agree on sum of money, interest rate, payback period and collateral provided by the borrower
- lender obtains collateral up to the point when borrower pays the money back. if not the collateral stays in possession of the lender
Simple and easy to implement from technical point of view.

2. Free market for bazooka parts
3. Adding few diggits to raw material prices and exchange rates to eliminate frictions (instead of 0.02 or 0.03 we might just have price of 0.023 without doing unnecessary donate operations with friends and wasting our time)

I have few more ideas but these are the basic ones (and easiest to implement). It is so simple even I can write the code.

Nerzhu1 Day 2,020, 03:13

Currently, the economy module rely too much on war module. Smaller and weaker countries can't afford to survive and make babyboom of their own because of the current economy module only benefits the veteran and rich players instead of the newbie and poor players.

From my opinion, the economy module deserve to be fix to support all nations equally, not to be biased towards the larger and stronger nations.

the Dentist Day 2,020, 04:57

you can´t fix what does NOT exist. make the fckin game strategic again, add more company types ( and i am not speaking about fcking Q😎. and with strategic i dont speak about your one time "same bullshit" fighting missions. ECONOMY is the word, not clicking FIGHT !
