Topic: Insurance

Oh perhaps we could maybe increase the insurance payout a weee bit on the bigger mechs or perhaps at least extend the insurance cover. 2.5m or whatever for 15 days without the waisted ep is awesome tongue. So a 30 day would be 2.5m cost for a 15 day insurance. So you get 7.5m back if you lose it within 15 days to cover not even half the cost of a heavy mech hehe....just saying is all. And I wonder why everyone says insuring bots is bullshiiittt

Re: Insurance

Insurance will not be changed. You can make a robot far cheaper than you could buy it. (In some cases but not all).
Insurance will never be touched because it's a massive NIC seed when used right.
Don't use what you can't afford to purchase.

exactly. Perhaps at least increase the insurance duration however, 15 days seems really short, I would think 30 days would be a standard on all mechs - skills in insurance.

Re: Insurance

15 days is only the base length and it can be extended with the Long-term insurance extension, by 3 days per level.

That's a total of 30 days it can be increased to. Level 5 makes it 30 days..

Seems to be balanced to me. You can make a heavy mech cheaper than the market price as long as you input more time to it but then you suffer the opportunity cost.

The Game

Re: Insurance

If you intend to play this game for longer, the EP 'wasted' on long term insurance is nothing compared to the NIC and thus time safed. Since I hardly play but like the game much, time saved on insurance fee is very valuable for me. I just wish I had discovered the skill(s) MUCH EARLIER than when it(they) was(were) actually changed. Would have saved me many NIC!
