Not sure if it's been suggested before but just putting my $.02

Rather than directly boosting e, the company could provide a meal ticket/coupon with a 24 hr validity from the time we receive it (similar to cashier's cheques at the bank).

BUT, it should not auto fill our e once the validity runs out to keep things from becoming too OP and of course it wouldn't be tradeable.

Thoughts?

As an added reason for this, the current mechanism vastly favors those who are already strong and very wealthy who no long have motivation to fly. Those still working on building up their wealth/stats are hit the hardest when the bonus hits just after they leave for SA.

the current MCS design allows players who are active and in torn to have a small advantage over players who are not active or don't spend a lot of time in torn,

however, unlike EVL if you are offline, or travelling, you will still benefit from MCS, just not as much as a player who is active and in torn.

considering that you gain from MCS regardless of how you play, and active players benefit more from it, there is no need to update it

It's fine the way it is - while you might miss out on some energy regen there's no difference between being on a plane and being offline (or even stacked) when the boost happens and that is also fine imo.

p.s. you might think that players who aren't item running overseas somehow get the full 300e most (or even all) of the time, but you couldn't be more mistaken - I personally come back to find a boost has come within an hour or two of my last log in and thus I've missed a few hours of energy regen probably 90% of the time.

I'm fine with how it is. I rarely get it when I am online and in the city but hey-ho it's still nice to receive a boost.

I don't think it would be OP if it auto refilled after the validity ran out regardless, doesn't make sense that it would be magically OP. Other than that, a good idea.

Even if someone went inactive in an attempt to stack this up, it would be mostly ineffective anyway.

Absolute worst case;

Go to bed with zero E, hit MCS boost soon after. Log in with 300e

Still 150e more than you wouldve otherwise had. Trying to fix a problem that doesn't exist here breh
AshleyT [1432316]

It still is kinda a problem. Not as much as the expire-able stuff but it's still a problem.

Just because it's not a problem for you, or a lot of other players, doesn't make it not a problem, just saying. If it's a problem for a small group, or even a single player, it's still a problem by definition, but in this case, this problem is across a fairly large group although the ratio of those who tolerate it and those who want it change is debate-able.

Your networth is 3b... Highly doubt you have a stockblock worth 1.8b



Thats the problem with this game... Already you're getting 150-300 FREE energy for a stock block that has historically been rising steady. Everyone thinks they need more free shit.
