Hey, everyone. I thought it would be fun to keep a public record of correspondences with W3C where you presented a problem or suggestion that they responded well to - or even asked for clarification and they provided a good, detailed answer.

This is NOT a thread to bash on game decisions or the makers. It is merely a public record of the dialogue between creators and players, and it will hopefully become a reference tool for the direction of the game or issues that are muddy in other documents.

I'll start in with a new post :)

Cheers,
Søren

Me to gamemaster
show details Nov 4 (6 days ago)
Dear Gamemaster,

I want to bring 2 problems to you: The end quality of C3 corps and the excessive difficulty involved in starting a new CEO.

1. C3 corps produce 185Q goods without using quality upgrades or higher Q supplies. I understand this is to protect C3 corps and help make the market stable, but this also hurts players for two reasons:

-First, this gives C3 corps an unfair advantage in volatile markets, as they essentially get free cash from the magical upgrade. This makes it difficult for a player to gain market-share in a certain area by forcing C3 corps out of business and replacing them with his/her own corps. Such competition is important in the real world and should be as well in the game: Players competing with players for economic superiority, not players vs. C3.

-Second, if one wants to buy a C3 corp, one buys a corp with an inflated price
