  Rt Server Reset  

What is everyones feelings on a server reset where everyone starts at ground 0 at the same time? Don`t just flame me now saying I am just a simple newbie. I have been playing this game for several years and my current account has 227 mining research into it. The reason I propose this is because since everyone is making so much our market is suffering.

People making so much per turn makes it so they max their credits much sooner. In order for them not to go over the cap they have to spend their money on minerals thus why the mineral`s are always extremly low after someone blows up the universe.

If the server was Reset i would QUIT , i spent over 10 months researching all my infrastructure levels I am not willing to do that again .
Resetting the server would only punish the long time players and benefit the newer ones . Besides that within 8 -12 months the game would be right back where it is now and then u would have the same situation.
The minerals are extremely low after the UW because 90% of them have been wiped out . The market needs to be fixed for sure but resetting everyone isnt the way to do it .
Perhaps there should be a permanent market so there is always minerals available this would encourage others to post up theirs at a cheaper rate .

the server reset is a bad idea. some of us make a lot of money. some of us want to keep our 10mil per turn income.

EvilAbadayos, are you saying I don`t play this game much? Just becasue I am not one of the many botters in this game thus not having full reseach doesn`t mean I don`t play. Yes a lot of people play more then me and good for them the reason I suggest this isn`t to set everyone off at an even foot but more as a way to fix the markets, I do realize this would only be a temp fix "for what would you guys say 1-2 years?" but at least it would hbe a fix until stephen gets around to an update "nt for UC which is the "Practice tester" " but for us to fix all this at least this would make the game interesting again.

I hate myself for saying this but mabey we can implement something from UC. Have an option that allows a player to steal a certain percentage of an opponent`s cash and minerals if sucessful. This would not only keep the server fresh by preventing complacency among the old empires, but also eliminate the need for Dineros.

funny how the people that actually play the game more and know about how it works more dont want such a silly idea.

funny eh?

Yes micro ifthat happened people would care wether a UW goes off or not. As it stands most people really don`t care when the bot sends it off except for new players who can`t get enough minerals to fight.

the UW should be harder to activate and make people lose a certain percantage of planets and infra...that would eventually even things out

People work for their stuuf, the admins have no right to take it away. I understand the point, but that is like robbing.

Maybe a decay funtion would help.
Food gets bad after time, ore is lost, ...
Just add a decay of 0.001 per turn and the huge numerbs will go down.

"the mineral problem will be solved soon without the help of the kalzul mineral bot. "

Hasn`t the mineral problem going to be solved soon for a very long time now?

I think UW taking 20% research is much better than having a full server reset. Full server reset would be horrible, all that time wasted, I would just quit.

RT should get a full reset every 2 years, its geting older more and more people geting to max research too much cash too many artis too much everything, either that or UW takes away 20% research =D

I agree with AC and EA that we already have this. It is called the DeathMatch. It might be interesting to try an extended death match. Perhaps even a week or month long. No cash prizes, just the glory of victory.

DarkRune, I think there should be a sixth server that has the RT turns and such, and yes UWs, but around each year it resets, they set a date and by the time that happens resets all empires, it really is a good challenge to some of us, but to others i can see it being bad. So that is why there are many pros and cons that I can`t list since i dont know them all XD
