so i have 0/15 bp?

thanks cz!

yo Trout, I found something weird about this new BP values. Yesterday one could go and bust 5 real moneys on your site for a new character, but today I’d have to at least burn 10 of them, for two characters, because 45BP for 5dlls and 50BP for a character.

I’m unsure of how to feel about this.

I absolutely do not want our game to become one of those Zynga pieces of **** where people just buy their way to the top.

While I agree completely with this sentiment, I’d also like to point out how very, very satisfying it is to be able to destroy one of those kind of players when you personally haven’t spent a single dime on the game.

”Oh, you’ve spent $1000 on Mafia Wars? Here, have a complimentary bum kicking while I burn down your Mega Casinos! Just think of it as the mint on the pillow in your $1000/Night hotel suite…”

you changed the VALUE of BP, then fluxed the MARKETS down to match. While this seems like a good selling point to drive down prices, you have effectively cheapened 1 BP to one/fifteenth of its original value. This could even be considered inflation.

For now it looks good, but when people get used to the mbumive BP transfers taking place for minimal gains, even if the EFFORT to obtain those BP was minimal compared to before, any way you swing it you have made your economy look like a 3rd world African country compared to a modern nation where a “buck is a buck.”

I hope you see my point, Trout, and i think this is huge mistake in the long run

then maybe that would have been a better idea instead of all these strange ratios.

Add another currency is better (cents) and leave BP as a BP

if you could debate my argument point for point instead of trolling it, then would be better for me to do so, Johnny Mac

brownie points and cookiepoints?

hey maybe we could have 1.6 brownie points instead of having 24

i mean its not like it looks better

or makes things easier

or means that you can do more things with bp

or that the game can give you small amounts of bp

no it cant do any of those things

they should have left 1 BP the min, fluxed down the markets to match, and changed the IRL amounts to get the packages instead of creating this to begin with.

having cents in the forumwarz “market” makes no sense at all. it’s harder to type amounts with . between them that a simple number. CZ made none of their buyable features more expensive compared with what they used to cost in real money, but they made several cheaper (again, in real dollars). You still can buy the exact same amount of things, if not more, with the same amount of REAL LIFE DOLLARS.

You can only exchange BPs for dlls. If someone happens to live in a country that has ****ed up dollar to national currency convertion, that has nothing to do with CZ and more to do with real economy being ****ed up blablablbalblablablbalabllaba

TLDR you have no argument.

actually jesus i cba to argue with people who dont get economics

e: read my post again then look at the old costs you cant fluxx it all

and also read trouts point on game bp
