[[NP]Monte Montague]

I'd like to know your concerns and opinions regarding the Economy.

Some may say: "What economy?", and I do not blame them for saying this.
 

 What do you think should be done about the Economy.

What affects it?

Let's discuss.

Well, too many  lottos. That unballance the economy . They should make only 1 LOTTO only 1 TIME . : P

The economy got destroyed with the release of the vehicle update.  There is no economy now, money means nothing on Argonath anymore - it's easy to burn and easy to get back.

True fact,

We used to save cash to buy expensive cars, and have fun with unique vehicles with meant not the cash you paid but how much you worked and maybe your experience...

I'd vote for putting sports cars' value up to 700k+...

As the people lost lots of millions with the vehicle system, it got balanced with the new property System. You can sell properties for the same price you sold a car back "old days", where in the "old days" you couldn't sell a "standard" house for no more than 50000.

Whats the point of paying 700k for a vehicle you can't sell to others lyrical? Exactly, None as it would increase the hunger on the powerhungry people, they will just say "HAHAHAHA i have an infernus and you don't, i am better than you!". If newbies would have to pay 700k for an sport car, the day they buy it one, they will no longer be a newbie, but an old veteran (Unless they just got luck with three lottos, events, etc); Most of the newbies simply don't have the patience or don't like to waste 8 Months of their life getting virtual money for a virtual car, which gives them absolutely nothing in real life; They will simply leave. The prices of the cars now is perfect, it is still hard to get 100000 but if you want, you can even get more than that in a few weeks. If they want an infernus, they don't have to waste 8 months of their life, for getting nothing basically.

I would suggest to keep this system, but instead raise the prices of the vehicles. By another 20%.
Lotto should be done one occasions, and paydays once a day, 10,000.

We are talking about something abstract here, assemble a team of trustful men who can gather economic plan in San Andreas.

By paying 700k, I mean, paying expensive... Therefore, hard to get. How you get? By working, you understading?
You can easily earn 100.000 in an event and buy a house, then a car, and later on a business, once you get everything why do you play?
If you get access to everything...
Property are becoming pretty useless nowadays as they're used for nothing but load/store.
What I mean is, reasons to keep playing, mission, objective? To roleplay? Surely, we do that everytime...
But in order to make the game a lil'bit more interesting, we should have "special" stuff which are hard to get... That's what makes the game funnier. IMO.

I think you got it now :p

[Drastic]

Suggestion:
1.Leave the house/bizz values as they were
2.Raise the sport car value by 10%
3.Give 1 payday per day

I don't agree.
RP should be practiced more then getting " expensive things" that can make you happy for a day, then they'll look the same.
We need to endorse RP not stats.

And that doesn't necesarilly haves to mean making things hard for newbies and other players by increasing the price of everything.
 There are lots of things that can make the game a bit interesting, such awards (JUST an example), <insert lots of things there>, and even the infinite roleplay scenarios that can be made.

I meant it for new players...
Objects/things are nothing, we play for fun and for the roleplay...But I still thinking that some new players at their first time, they try to earn cash by all means...
I believe making "expensive" stuff was cool, because they had something to go after for....
Let me try to examplify :razz:

A guy wants to buy a sport car which costs 700.000.
He looks for a job (RP) > Earns some cash > Go to events (meet people and friends) > He sells stuff such as drugs in order to make cash(RP)...
I believe all those things are "healthy"...
I might be wrong though.

When I was a newbie I wanted to buy a nice house near the beach and a buffalo, now you can buy a buffalo for 70k it's not that unique now, but I love the new scripts.
