Topic: Field Terminal NPC Plasma Buy Orders.
So here the Idea:
Field Terminals would have a NPC buy order for plasma.
I have 3 concepts to this:
The first one is the concept of plasma in itself. The buy orders for plasma would be adjusted so if you sold in a NPC MAIN terminal you would always make more money. But the Field terminals would allow for a quick dump or plasma to the terminal. So if I was on alpha 1 and I killed a mob went to the Field terminal to sell it, I could get 200 Nic per piece but 250 Nic in the NPC MAIN terminal. On Beta you get 250 at field terminal and 300 in the npc terminal.
2 ways this could be implemented:
1. A "Market Lite" option added to the field terminal that sells basic essentials(cans, charges, and incubators) at a little extra convenience fee like 10 to 20% more than the terminal. In the market Lite could have the buy orders for the plasma could be there.
2. A scalable mission at each level that buys plasma (you would need a minimal amount of plasma for this: So Level 0 would only buy 1000 plasma for X nic, Level 1 would buy 10,000 plasma for X nic and so on, for 0 relationship gain too.)
This would cut down on the OMFG: ratting on Beta is so hard WTFBBQ, and would mean players could do more things on an island without being logged in a terminal.
Thoughts?
