Whatever happened to the @ $2000 per minerals that would post in market. It would be nice if there were always a ready supply.,.,. or is it the case that big empires simply bought all that 2K up for their galactic savings & loan corporations? Sure would be nice for NEW players to have minerals so they can play Galactic CONQUEST. |

My 25 cents -- inflation is a pain |

99+ day(s) ago | I have max cash and max minerals. I cannot post more minerals because I am max cash. Simple as that. I have to build fleets nd use turns for weeks at 100+ mil PR to start having to need to post minerals. |

99+ day(s) ago | Yea and u would. Make alot of $ |

99+ day(s) ago | Security is a more valid reason than scumbags imo, point taken. Still say it`s worth finding a way to funnel some players out of facebook somehow. Simple awareness would be enough to snag quite a few new players into the mix. |

99+ day(s) ago | No, facebook is a giant cesspit full of vulnerabilities and security loop holes. It`s basically a giant ` please hack me ` sign. Oh and then add in the scumbags. |
Sateda
99+ day(s) ago | You have scumbags regardless of where you draw your crowd from. But you also have potential good players sitting in a thus far untapped mass of people. Good and bad abounds in every scenario. |
Raistilin
99+ day(s) ago | Yes, having a bunch of facebook scumbags would just be lovely. |
Sateda
99+ day(s) ago | Well, as much as I hate to admit it, Facebook has quite a following of people that play turn based games on it, seems the logical step for a game like Gc to make. The player base would be pretty large then I`d imagine. |
Raistilin
99+ day(s) ago | Re do the game? i`m cool with. Making it part of facebook trash? not cool with. |
Ragnarok
99+ day(s) ago | Indeed, it`s easier to simply make a clone of the game and move on. How hard would it be to recreate this entire game in a facebook app if you had the money for servers and stuff? =/ |
Yoshi
99+ day(s) ago | I believe G`s and A`s offered him many times to help him re-do the codes for easier manipulating after but he just refuse. |
Squaks
99+ day(s) ago | Hard Coded means he has no idea what to do anymore... |
LordTumbles
99+ day(s) ago | What I do not get about this... What does "Hard Coded" Mean? does he not have access to his own flippin code?
If anything that just shows this game needs a complete programming update... Granted I know this will never happen.
You know what will get more people to stay around? More fantastic events like we just had (<3 deus) If that happened once a month or so I bet we`d see more people stickin around. |

I think it would be nice to know what options you actually have now.
Can you change market price limits so that minerals could cost 2000?
- Nope requires Stephen
Can you change the mineral capacity?
- Already tried to get Stephen to drop the mineral cap to 200mil for all minerals more times then i can count since late 2008 working with Maraudian.
Can you change the race income modifiers?
- Did get Stephen to do this once or twice but it also had some unexpected outcomes when he did them... (Like deleting all race stats before the refresh on accident and me having to help him fix it..)
Can you change the mineral cost and ship price of a ship?
- Mineral cost yes, Ship cost no.. Not even Stephen can change ship cost it`s auto calced by the server
