what if you could open a referral account in the bank?

making a maximum 5000$ welcome package to someone you refer to the game making it an easier start.

when you refer someone, they appear in your bank link, and you can choose wether you want to give them a cash to start out with or not. maybe a nice way to draft more players

I was gonna start a new thread topic for this but found this old one during a pre-search.

Stock market is a good idea. Make it a real volatile one. The money isn't real anyway and it could be fun.


How 'bout a credit market instead? ????

I love money.

yeah, I would be amused by a stock market, it would be rather difficult if it wasn't just a preset graph for each stock though, like what would price be based on?

The base price(s) for each type of share(s) would have to be pre-set at the start (by Zen) and then fluctuate based on factors such as supply,demand, and players' disposable income.

Although very basic, our economy already contains several markets, including:

-pharmaceutical (stims, protien bars, hospital)
-weapons/armor
-the travel industry
-real estate
-banking
-entertainment (casino, lotteries)
-education/training
-(credits/donations?) maybe....

The amount of player activity/purchasing in each market could determine the demand; but the supply factor (which is obviously unlimited because this game isn't real) would need to be adjusted over time by "market forces" (Zen, again) that cannot be easily determined by investors.

Some markets in this game will always have a high demand (like pharmacerticals & travel) while the demand for others will change slowly (real estate).

I'll shut up now.

yeah, that could work.
