Today, we have released a small update to the game. Read through this announcement to learn what has changed.
Quoting Changelog:
- Work CAPTCHA removed from VIP players.
- Added "Next Job" link to the work completion page.
- Doubled NPC buying rates of food and medicine.
- Renamed Energy Drink to Boost Drink, to avoid confusion as it doesn't affect energy levels at all.
- Messages added to loan applications, rejections and construction contract rejections.
- Proper hovers for achievements.
- Various other tweaks and bugfixes.
More updates to follow in the near future!
Feedback, ideas and complaints are welcome as usual!
Just a little feedback on the current NPC retail shoppers:
A little more randomization would be great, currently they favor price and location a little bit too much (if you undercut someone by a few cents it makes a big difference).
It should act within certain price ranges, for example:
Lowest (with >1 available) + 0-10% (equal chance)
Lowest (with >1 available) + 10-20% (25% less chance) etc.
Don't make the exact %'s public to make it a little more interesting ;)
IF possible, have advertising to NPC and Players make a difference as-well! :)
- Advertisement to NPC (wouldn't be shown on the webpage as anyone should be able to advertise at the same time) could be though an offered price / visitor (not always a buyer!) where the price should make a bit of a difference :)
Other than that, maybe rather than increasing the 'amount' NPC's buy (based on population) increase the frequency to make the game a little more dynamic.
Got some more ideas about how to improve retail (and hosuing) i'll type out soon :)
Regarding achievements, it would be more engaging to know what your current count is, there is no indicator as to how many jobs you will need to work to reach the next level.
Disregard - read the updated statement from the bank and understand now..
Yeap, cancelled (paid back) all deposits due to a lack of game updates, can't sustain paying interest when there is a lack of 'real' players needing loans and basically zero other ways of making money currently.
