Topic: Finance and Relation needs more options.
Alright, some people might think this is weird, but for Perpetuum, I decided to try a different approach and play the market only without any combats specs.
Been fun so far, if not very challenging, but I wish there would be more options for players like me. So far, the Finance extensions are quite unimportant. It's easy enough to make money that insurance isn't "that" needed and also, it only benefits people who put themselves in harms way with changes of losing their Mech, in which case it shouldn't even be in the Finance extensions.
And besides that, there is only the buy/sell extension that is worth getting up to a certain point at which having more space isn't necessary.
I was thinking of trying to find a few options that could be implanted for players who wish to specialize into that domain and I have a few.
- With a very deep, and I mean very deep like you need to spend EP in Finance to a very high level, you get to be able use the market of different terminals without being there physical and without having the item you want to sell there physically either. Kind of like a long distance provider, you can move your goods more, at a faster rate. I know some of you might think it would be too good, but I'm talking here like 50k+ EP to get that kind of extension, very difficult.
- Another option, would be that, again with alot of EP involved, you get notified when you get outbidded on items. So that it's easier to track and that you can react accordingly. And again, it might sound a bit too good, but I'm also talking about a very hard extension to get.
That's all I have for now but I'll try to get a few more ideas. Also, making the Relation extension better would be great too. There should be an extra benefit at having good relation with all Corp. and not just a few specific ones.
