Warehouse

[Kutolah]

I'm sure that you guys over here at FAF know about the warehouse feature. This is a feature from another promi Medieval Empires. I would just like to propose the idea of maybe making the warehouse a feature in BFR. If you have already been through this, forgive me. I didn't know. I would just like the admin of the game to take this into consideration.

I wouldn't mind seeing the warehouse, actually. However, instead of MEs pay to upgrade system, I'd rather see something based soley on net.

In addition, for BFR, it should have pretty major capacity - approximately the equivilent of what you can store on the market, at current. The whole point of BFR is to store up for the end, so, storing should be possible.

We know. We have the warehouse code. Thing is... We aren't going to use it. When summer rolls around, the warehouse is gonna be the troop reserve. ME code is FAF code. Turocks just done an awesome job coding since the guys been off.

The warehouse is a good idea but I think it needs more limiting factors to it. As it is now it can unbalance a game. Maybe if it was added to BFR and played a few rounds we could establish a good set of limits to balance it out better.

Like I said. Troop Reserve. Reducing the size of your warehouse might be more effective. I don't know how it works though. Haven't seen code (As if that would help) or heard much about it, so sorry. D:

As to that, Lets not poke BFR now that its going. I'd be more in favor of sticking in the no-limit server and testing it. I'm pretty sure we can get a good feel for whats a good limit. Then throw it in BFR. If anything, I'd like the warehouse to be emptied if you get below 500land. That way it makes you harder to kill.

You only think its unbalanced due to my 109bil net...

My suggestion is limit it to 1 withdraw or deposit per hour, basically what it was before, though in that one action, you could deposit all you want, no 70% limit. Would stop people from dropping, attack, then withdraw. Once you deposit, you can't do another action for an hour so might help a bit.

[Kutolah]

I personally think it should be deposit as much as you want anytime. Only that you can only withdraw once an hour.

[Arthus]

Well that wouldn't solve the problem at all then...

[Slasher]

Make them cost workers, time, money, and food to feed the workers... kind of like a hero costs, but not the troops. Also limit them to one withdrawal per hour or something.

[Freenhult]

Uh. Make it so you have to pay 1/2 upkeep on all stored troops. That will discourage mass storing.

I disagree, at least for BFR. On BFR we want people to be able to store up for the end of the set. Since there really isn't any way to store resources, at least not solo, the Market/Warehouse is all they'll have.

However, on WOA, the point is continuing power, not massed end of set net. So a 1/2 cost would be good. Maybe only 1/4 or 1/3, but something like that.

If you remember Rudder, we aren't getting the warehouse in WoA anyway. That was gonna be the troop reserve thing. But yeah. I agree that you shouldn't be in BFR.
