Construction research

Post by Guest » 04.11.2008, 03:43

This could very well be suggested before but i'll jot it down anyway...
I'd like to see researching construction added to the mine and well RC. Every point researched would make you gain 0.4% of the time needed to complete a buildingupgrade. This way at level 10 your upgrades would finish 4% earlier.

What you gain is time and only time, not that you would need less stone, wood and steel. One could even argue it requires more resources and or more money. Although you'd have already paid for the research, i don't know how the idea balances out in game.

i think this is a good idea... But it has to be limited... just like max 10% or 15% faster... :) but i think like such ideas would not be used in either realm1 or realm2... i think they pick up a selection of all ideas and use them in a future realm3... Big question: when will realm3 come, and will they use your idea... :) ???

10% should be the max cause you know that there would be people that only research that and then get it up to 100% so they buy a building get enough money and expand it up to 32000 in 0 seconds and then they sell

I know that is what i would do :oops:

I like the idea and don't think it should be extremely restricted. If you do the math, you find that it would take almost 2 years to expand a mine to its full extent. If you have, say, 25% of your buildings in expansion at any time, that's about 7 years just to build out your fixed assets. That's TOO LONG, even for a persistent browser game. I like the idea of researching construction and *significantly* reducing build out time.

just to let you know, if you got it up to 100%, then it would take half the time to expand buildings, not 0 seconds :wink:
