REMOVE ENERGY CAP!!!!!

[sergeantlewis]

Why do we need a energy cap the is absolutly no reason at all so if u agree with me vot yes and if u dont vote no.

 

[CapnSanta]

Yeah, hi sarge! I already started a thread about this very topic but not with a poll. Maybe a GM can join them together? I think they would compliment each other.

 

[defacto]

It should atleast be increased with 4 times on the llater levels...

 

[Dark_Lord]

Why would someone buy membership if there is no e cap.
So better make it 2-3 times more than removing it.We dont want the game to fail

Do you want to go collect e 45 minutes long? 8 times a day?

The membership is really a poor case. I have tried to explain why I think the E cap ought to be removed but it seems to fall on deaf ears. The membership advantage only needs to be an ENERGY GENERATOR with NO cap! Plus any other bonuses like buddies and clans etc whatever....

If there is NO cap then players who have NO membership STILL MUST SPEND LOTS OF TIME collecting the energy! Do you understand this?? TIME MUST BE SPENT COLLECTING IT! TIME TIME TIME!! GET IT??!!

What the membership OUGHT to be doing is ADDING ENERGY to your pilot WITHOUT YOU SPENDING THE TIME COLLECTING IT! How more SIMPLE can I put it???

The advantage of BUYING E DIRECTLY means you can put ANY AMOUNT INSTANTLY into your pilot! Depending on how much you want to spend!

So we have THREE levels;

1) Collect the stuff for HOURS,

2) Membership which adds it automatically according to a FAIR formula (fair to the cost of the membership), and

3) Instant boosts of E.

All these should require NO LIMIT!!

That is my argument for the removal of the E cap. It is NOT required!

i think the pros outweigh the cons, people who dont have membrship will be more inclined to play the game if there is no e cap, they can just spend hours collecting e and thatll do them for ages ^^

 

[ZeribreX]

But the cons will come back, being no pilot will buy gold for their membership, lowering the income for SS

 

[TheUndertaker]

they shud increase the energy cap with 10000

but wat i am saying is y did they ever bother having a e cap its the pilots choice if he wants to waste his time collecting energy.

 

[retro]

i think they should do a special membership for the players that want to buy it that gives you unlimted e and charge 70,000 gold or something along them lines

The cap needs adjustment, Today i landed on moliker with 4650E Killed 1para., 1 harvy started 2nd harvy and ran out of E.. I mean out like 3 E left had to leave. No unneeded shots were used. So for about 5 mins of play now i got to go get 15mins of E..... There a better way for SS to make money E is not the way. I beleave SS knows the best way to make cash is E so dont think any of this will matter. Other games have ships to buy @ all Ranks that are prems. but then SS would have to spend a little money...

Some more creative membership ideas aside from creating acute artificial frustrations and charging exorbitantly to alleviate them, would probably do wonders to help this game.. but of course, that requires a fair amount of effort.

 

[X4-JET]

I totaly agree. Get rid of the e cap like Santa said if people want to spend hours colecting the stuff then ok. But if people want to use gold to get it instantly the SS will make money off that. Lastly SS can make money off memberships because of all the extras on the membership like e generator, buddy list and clan # increase and don't forget the awsome ship glow from all the memberships ^^. But all joking aside the e cap makes us normal pilot only able to fight for 5 mins then fill for 15 mins and that just dosnt stand well for the people who don't want to spent money on this game.

 

[Keshi]

The last time I heard, the generator generates at an utterly pointless rate of 3e per minute for the first level. You'd have to sit around idling for 11 HOURS to get 2k e, enough for 1 or 2 missions in Antares, and only if you're already rank 60 (fastest rate due to rank)! Of course, you won't catch any rank 60 pilots doing missions in Antares... they would need to sit around a LOT longer to do their rank appropriate missions.
You'd have to sit around idling for half an hour to fire a SINGLE extinctor rocket!

 

[Rocco]

If you remove the e cap the only time that would be saved is going to and from the e field s thats it on a planitary level .. or if you one a low level planet the time it takes to go from a planet to a higher planet and back or the difference in the timings of just collecting it there.
i wounder why no gms posted here yet

 

[Ahsoka]

The Energy cap is there to control the amount of energy for each player. This I was told by a GM when Gamigo was in the game to.

 

[CapnSanta]

Which is not really necessary... As has been explained many times before.

And it IS interesting that NO official has made ANY comment on this topic! It is because there is no reason for it except to annoy us into buying improvements! But as I have pointed out removing the cap wouldn't affect the shop use at all! Only that the membership would have to improved!

 

[godman]

I agree as many have said that they should put some more speciall things if you buy member ship then higher energy cap and more buddy space

 

[sergeantlewis]

Sorry guys this poll is not making much difference the GM's are not going to do anything about this
