With the new 50 gold per level that punishes us non-buyers for the games birthday and high weapon and item energy usage, I think that energy cap should be increased. I'm a level 28 with a Gemini Fusion Storm, and I will run out of energy FAST. You don't see the high levels that don't buy energy refilling every 5-10 minutes. I think that everybodies energy cap should be increased, at level 25, by 2000. Only level 25 though, since that is when it really starts costing e fast. Your prolly gonna say this that and the other thing about how this would totally ruin the economy, and the Mods will post some excuse when you really know that the game wants your money. I'm not looking for this, and I'd VERY much like it if you people wouldn't post these replies without actually reading the entire article. Instead of a 50-150e cap boost at level 25, you got a 2000 energy boost. That would help quite alot. I really am starting to think this is one of those games where the mods will defend the company when it comes to money, and that even though this game is free it's not really if you want to be effective. Now think of this and post changes, not bad reasons as why it shouldn't be added.

Lol good to know the person who usually dissagrees is agreeing XD
I disagree on that.
And i still disagree that someone disagreed that i agreed, but then someone disagreed over that i agreed in general.

I agree with the idea, though I don't agree with Slithid saying "Now think of this and post changes, not bad reasons as why it shouldn't be added". That sounds like someone saying you can only agree with me. Also, it would destroy the economy. Remember, this game is 'free', but the labor, maintenance, and monitoring is not.

more e per level up is required. sorry to say this, but it is too low sometimes. maybe if its either 100 or 150 e per level up. NEVER 50.

Now really slithid, you are not at SOL for to see how the high rank players are filling up e constantly.
Do you really think that the high levels has more e than the low?
First of all the e amount and cap increases when you gain rank, for the second High rank players has HIGH rank ships what consumes HIGH amounts of E.

Have you actually been at Earth to follow the high rank players how often they fill up?
No you haven't, but you has seen us, me included high rank player with Vega or Antares ship and BOUGHT E and not filling up the whole time, also the lower rank ships we are using at the planets where you are allowed to be does NOT consume the E what our rank ships does.

I think you should stop comparing High rank players issues with lower rank ones, you have really no clue nor can u comment on something you have never been able to follow what happens.


This below is for all lower rank players who think they know more than us!

I am so peed off with low rank players commenting their ideas here comparing and disrespecting even the higher rank players comments who really know what they are talking about, so much bad attitudes and other attitudes as if they know already everything in this game.
Some even behave like they have all the knowledge from this game even more than oldies.

Gosh could you just comment on issues what you actually know something about and not pretend to know?

Actually, I mean I want you to post ideas on how it could be better or something, but I'm tired of the "it would ruin something in the game" stuff

If a suggested feature would, in fact, ruin something in the game, we should hear it.

This may sound rediculous, but I play games for fun(GASP)

Me spending 10 minutes gathering enegry is not fun. So I have a couple suggestions

-Raise bonus to 100-150 per level
-Increase the ammount of E obtained from E balls
-Shorten the cooldown for power collectors


Anye one of those would be a GREAT help, and if this game really wants to make money, I'd be happy to fill out of sheet of features/items i would pay for, or payment methods that I could use

Lower ranks use much more E with shooting:

If you are rank 12 and you have the rank 12 blaster
E use of blaster: 8 E/shot
Energy max: 1300
Then you can shoot 162 times

If you are rank 28 and you have a rank 28 blaster
E use of blaster: 17 E/shot
Energy max: 2900 E max
Then you can shoot 170 times

If you are rank 55 and you have a rank 55 blaster
E use of blaster: 30 E/shot
Energy max: 5650 E max
Then you can shoot 188 times

lets look at the repair droid:
Rank 12
E use: 30
max: 1300
you can repair 43 times

Rank 28
E use: 66
max: 2900 E
you can repair 43 times

Rank 55
E use: 120
max: 5650
you can repair 47 times

again higher ranks use less E,

As i am a high rank it strange that we use more E, maybe because mantis are much stronger. But the numbers say this.

To put it simply, I like your idea... but I have some reserves.

Support:
1) It's a small increase. Won't mess up the E-conomy provided that we players don't ask for any past this.
2) Some players actually leave due to the *shoot for 10 seconds, collect for 2 minutes* thing.


That being said:
Think of the E fields bro! If everyone were at them collecting longer...
Heck, I don't think a drop of E would remain! xD Point?

And as a Result of the above:
We can't ask for a respawn-rate increase for energy balls... that would mess up the E-conomy a bit.
So if you went to an LZ, and it was drained dry...
Food for thought. The system does run as it does for a reason. ^w^
Player ramifications are in there as well. Having an extra 2k E to fill might mean that the LZ get's stormed due to longer collecting coupled with a far greater concentration of players maxing the ol' E tank. MEEP!

:) I don't say this to be unsupportive... but just honest. By the way, your restraint in asking for a mere 2000 E impresses me. I've seen too many threads asking for a far more radical alteration to the E cap, some of which called for its total removal. But we all know that that's just not feasible.

Wolfie - has put forth his two cents.

Don't, they will probably have a blow out and leak for months thus sending the price up XD
