Dear Citizens,

We’re making a couple of changes to eRepublik with the intent to address some mechanics which have become obsolete over time and to better emulate the real world.


Cost of Travel

Starting Day 4,605 [00:00], the cost of traveling will no longer be based on travel zones, but on the actual distance (in km) between cities.

The base travel cost will be 10 units of currency per 100 kilometers. When traveling with currency, a minimum cost of 20 currency will be deducted, even if the distance is shorter than 200km.

Travel tickets will allow distances based on their quality, each quality providing 1000km of travel range. Multiple tickets will be used if necessary.

In order for the citizens to adapt their economic strategy to this change, all ticket offers have been withdrawn from the market and the tickets have been returned to the citizens’ inventories.

Travel range of tickets:
Q1 Tickets: 1000 km
Q2 Tickets: 2000 km
Q3 Tickets: 3000 km
Q4 Tickets: 4000 km
Q5 Tickets: 5000 km

Example: Traveling from Lombardy to Kirde-Eesti: 2,001 Km
2x Q1 Travel Tickets OR
1x Q2 Travel Tickets OR
1x Q3 Travel Tickets OR
1x Q4 Travel Tickets OR
1x Q5 Travel Tickets OR
200 currency

The other mechanics related to travel will remain unchanged.


Resistance wars

Starting day 4,606 [00:00], Resistance Wars will be added to the battle queue of the region once the number of supporters is gathered, and it will start unless the region returns to the original owner.

Citizens will now be able to support a Resistance War in any region if at least 24 hours have passed since the original owner has lost control over it.

Example:
Region X of country A is under occupation by country B.
The resistance force of country A gathers the required supporters.
The resistance force will be added to the queue.

Scenario 1:
Country B has an ongoing battle with Country C in Region X.
After the battle between B and C is finished, a new battle will start opposing the resistance force and the winner of the previous battle.

Scenario 2
Country B has an ongoing battle with Country A, the original owner in Region X.
If Country B wins the battle, a new battle will start between the resistance force and Country B.
If Country A wins the battle the resistance force will disband and the resistance war will close.

The other mechanics related to Resistance Wars remain unchanged.

Well 200cc to go and 200cc come back to your resident are to much. You must bring back the ticket companies admins.

Why now and not a year ago? Ah, yes, money. Fair play is for the paying.

Ahhhh ... where did the diplomacy go? How did you only now realized that this will not work in your game? Very strange .... don't you think?

 

And Ticket Companies are a mandatory now. Or you must change the Weekly Challenge rewards and add many more tickets from all of the qualities.

 

So, in short - the admins are admitting again that they start dancing when CODE start whistling and they(the admins) are inserting more confusion in their game instead of trying to fix it ...

 

Nice! Grate choices! Keep up the good work!

[Krapis]

I welcome greater complexity.

 

But does the current economic situation support these changes without other additional changes? As a new player starting out cc was hard to come by and travel to fight was often necessary.

 

I think the earlier suggestion to change weekly challenge rewards to add more tickets of all qualities sounds like a great response to this.

[Thedillpickl]

So House and Residence is obsolete because of travel cost? Maybe you will make a pack for travelers? 9.9€ to reduce cost or provide tickets? Me thinks you want people pay to play.

[EBM]

Garbage

[agust84]

Player with holding?????????????????????????????

[agust84]

When will you make a map with new regions and shuffle the deck of the incredibly un-fair resources? eUSA has 19 high resources and 51 regions, so many other countries have no, zero, zip, nada high resources and like 5 regions.

 

And hey, introduce naval battles asap. There are so many Air Commodores now that newbies need something where they can start a career.

[KIPPERS OF THE MUD]

Hello, where are:

Q6/Q7 Houses?

Q2/Q3/Q4/Q5/Q6/Q7 Aircraft?

Perception training?

Cities + Mayors Update?

 

Literally hundreds of millions of not billions of currency LOCKED in cities and UNABLE to be used.

 

How long has this been? 3 years? 4 years? What the hell is happening?

[Hob Dobson]

I would recommend against forcing players to automatically use Q5 travel tickets "worth" 500cc on 20cc travel.

 

Then again, I might recommend against jacking up travel costs after companies have been purchased and moved into holding companies.  As it is, expect raw materials prices to skyrocket and nation incomes to drop as people stop work-as-manager until the price covers travel expenses.

[Makaveli The DON]

Bring back the CO so we can earn the cc for traveling.
Make it possible for the countries to use the locked cc in the cities as you definitely don't know what to do with it.

Edited by Makaveli The DON, 28 June 2020 - 06:31 AM.

[Vlad Gordin]

We need

- free relocation for holdings

- make CO again

- tickets company

- return fun to the game

[Flecher]

No, si parece que se quieren cargar el juego, y lo van a conseguir, cada vez menos jugadores, si quieren que acabe, seguid así, lo lograreis.

10 units of currency per 100 kilometers...   

Come on Plato, why not 100cc units of currency per 100 kilometers?   

 

Why stop there, since you obviously want to stop people from producing via WAM, why not make it 1000cc units of currency per 100 kilometers? heck... 10kcc per 1 km seems reasonable right? Since we cannot work, we cannot move to fight, why don't go all the way? Just make it so we insert our credit card info when we log in and get it over with...  

 

You don't want to lose this steady but low profit, yet every change you make feels like milking the last drop until you pull the plug... At least be honest to yourself, it's obvious you cannot increase your profit with these cheap tricks and you don't care enough to come up with a viable long-lasting business plan so it's time to choose: 0 euros or the small amount you're getting now:   

- if you don't change anything you'll get what a steady decline in profits,

- if you'll continue pushing this "you need to sell your kidneys to play this game" strategy you're racing to that 0 mark.

 

Tic, toc, time's running out, we've given up hope on your honesty towards the player base ages ago, it's just a matter of time until the remaining of us are done giving you endless chances and bail out of this "abusive relationship" ...    

 

Tic, toc, time to chose!   

[N e v a n d e r]

We need
- free relocation for holdings
- make CO again
- tickets company

I agree with: "free relocation for holdings"

Please.
