Money and Currency

[5murg111 Profile]

This morning I've been thinking about how I'm going to earn money when the server is reset. And I thought maybe we could have no money, and have currency like gold or diamonds. Just a suggestion... maybe you'll like it maybe you won't...

I think having no money would be fine. or have a 0 sum system where all you can generate is what we are given when we start.

Iron and gold are out because you can make grinders. Diamonds aren't good either because 1 diamond would need to buy 35 stacks of cobble. Plus people with fortune picks have a large advantage. I think the current system works. Sure some people will gain a lot of money, but that's from hard work they put into the game.

We'll probably keep the current economic system in the new map. Coins will continue to be the de facto currency, however, TWiTMart sell signs won't be static.

Dynamic pricing will make it more difficult to amass hundreds of thousands of coins in a matter of weeks and use that stockpile to manipulate the market price of any individual items.

I talked to Rage a bit today about the zero-sum system he had in mind and I think it's something worth exploring. Perhaps he could write a reply detailing it?

I'll do that.... just not right now. Soon.... tm Blizzard
