Higher Taxi Fee

[Lara Croft]

I'm a taxi driver in the game.I'm usually fast and soft service.I want to have higher fee.Like : 80 $ or 100 $ maybe 150 $ :=) :banana:

[Senate]

This fee is for every 10 meters or something, a trip across the Algonquin Bridge at this rate would be like $2000.

New players only start out with $10k. Sounds like you want to take advantage of them again like you did with the ambulance fee. :money:

I dont support this.

For me it should be like that. Let's the driver is in Broker for example:

Dukes/Charge Island - $50
Bohan - $100
Algonquin/Colony Island - $150
Alderney - $200


But it is dependable in which side of the borough are you. It would be good if a counter is integrated in all taxis.

[Senate]

There is a counter for every 10-50 meters (approximately, not sure exact distance). Whatever fee is gets charged in these intervals.

Meaning the $200 trip to Alderny you suggest, would be $5000 at a rate of $150.

I dont like any of fees, medic gets 600$ doh...If i would heal myself everytime I lose HP i would already go in minus.

50$ fee is more than enough. Thats very big money for doing nothing really. I have worked as taxi driver aswell and must say that 50$ fee is very very high. I would never drive with taxi that has 50$ fee. Thats just too much. I do not support this atall. 150$ for driving few meters ..... Newcomers dont even know how the taxi fee works and how the paying actaully works. Sure u enter the cab and it shows "Ur driver is Player and the fee is 50$. But it doesnt inform that 50$ per 100 meter. They might think the 50$ is the whole trip. Maybe they dont even notice how the money is ticking off their account and then later when they discover the /invent command and know that they had 10k at first, start screaming in main chat "Where the fu*k is my money".  I dont support higher fee. 50$ is high enough.

[hAWK.]

Really I didn't know that there are already counters. Those prices I suggested were total. In that case 100m should be equal to $10 or something.

The Prices for Now Are Great Its the start If we higher the Price None will consider Taxi at this moment and as stated Before Try do long trips with your passanger and you will earn Better its all on you how to earn money ! dont Blame low fees 

[Lara Croft]

Maybe it can be like that : Every 20 seconds or every 100 meters we (taxi drivers) get 100 $ or 80 $ maybe..That could be nice...Thanks for suggestion and replies

Two things:
  1) It is not needed to post with a bigger font size;
  2) it is not needed to post in a color.

As for your "tweaked idea"; it's still too much in my opinion..

I totally agree. Even tho you can /setfee up to 50$, most drivers wont do it. Why? Cause its too much for passengers. You have to think about getting customers too. Fee is too high = less or no passengers. Means you wont get any money at all. Dont just think about yourself  :roll:

Higher fees Not needed
