'The High Profitess Corp' on LU

Unlike last update I was not one of those affected, but this time I am being hit pretty hard. If you can find an explanation.

I'm buying Shares which is negligible, and a full booster of supplies every few months or so, but they get pumped back into my corps and cash flow back to enterprise.

My CEO consistently makes between 900-1.1T every game month. But my cash has been on a serious decline despite the profits shown.


Cash Position

Monthly Profit

as you can see in the last 6 months or so, the cash discrepancy begins

Since the update CEO income in countries are way down I'm talking about 30-200b empire wide. Now we where promised higher profits but I only see a decline. You can say its just a phase every CEO goes through. But when profits never went back up there has to be a problem. Ignore me like u always do but I've run the same econ since I've started. Always been making good money but I've been making a lot less since the changes. You said profits would go up. You lied to me and everyone else. Yes I'm angry. I'm sure other people are too. You wonder why people leave the game its Cuz your attitude towards your customers. You don't like it then leave. That's what I get from some of the comments I see. Prove me wrong. We don't wanna see space wars. We wanna see u fix the problems with the game 1st. But what we think and what you think are complete opposites. War feature needs to be fixed,econ needs to be looked at,and a few others

Yes, they have made lots of promises, like eliminating population shrinkage, I have not seen any of them come to pass, well except for limiting what we can buy where, and adding Space (That was a big loser so far)

somethings wrong with the pay outs. i IPO'd some shuttle corps, they were paying out, but the share holders weren't getting any money. I've been meaning to message the GM about it, but i've got a couple other issues with shuttle corps, and usually they only respond to one issue per mail

I must also add the fact I just put 5 garrisons. Just a test. Supply units @250Q and weapons/ammo @250Q for garrisons. Result is garrison is @100Q. Something has to be done about that. I would have lost trillions in assets over this if I didn't test 1st.

Both my countries and enterprise on KB are down on their profits, especially my main country, which has dropped into deficit.
My enterprise is surviving thanks to good profits from new corps- thats it.

I'm having to e-mail the GM almost on a daily basis regarding problems.

Leave space alone and fix the main game first.

Tom, have you noticed a diference between the profitability of new corps built after the update and older ones from before?

Up until a few weeks ago the default production for electric power corps was 24K units per month. That was reduced to 23K and currently stands at 21.5K.

It looks like profits are being cut as the GC exchange rate tumbles.

I've been closing five century old military service corps that were losing 10B a year. That makes me sad. :(

And the time it took me to close only twenty of those corps makes me furious!

@GothamlokI
Haven't been building much in my CEO very much, but I'll look out.
My Country has not been profitable at all, but that may be because an earthquake has knocked down my welfare.

i've always felt that was the case... i mean you tell a player they are making 300B profit, but the cash on hand increase doesn't really keep up with the cost of registration...

i've kinda wondered what the whole point to CEO's are. i mean i get that they make countries more profitable. but you have this thing that is their, to ONLY make money... kinda defeats the purpose of even charging a player to have one. I mean, if you set them up so they don't reach paying registration, their isn't much point for a player to have one, other than levels, and improving their countries. if you make it so they can make more... then it kinda defeats the purpose of even charging for them.

I have also been feeling for a while that the worst enemy in this game isn't huge warlords, but the GM's themselves. I know they have to make ( real ) money too, but we shouldn't be tricked into thinking we make more money than we do.
These errors/tricks that you have pointed out make my feelings much stronger.
Thank you!

Me goes to my countries and build massive disaster relief supplies!

Happy Birthday Smokes!
No earthquake in my countries, but all my medium level managers and medium level workers, which are really there, disappear when I try to build hospitals!

So I closed 3 companies, and released all my disaster relief presonnel, did workers exchanges and transfers,and still can't build a single hospital.

What the hell !

Found that somebody had requested to build an ammo upgrade corp in my country. After literally being forced to turn him down, everything is cool again. Trying to reach level 9!
