Comment on Building deterioration: How it works by LuisMH

“think of it as the equipment aging and just not working as well as it used to”

I agree to that…
but… if a NEW factory has everything inside it NEW, the “machines” will work BETTER after some use, and then start deteriorating…
You can compare it to a car (the engine)

well, it could be complicated to implement something like this in the game…
anyway, i like that new “building deterioration” thing

Comment on Tycoon Online: A fun business game for everyone by Erabyss

I have been playing TO for about a week now. I have to say I am uber impressed.

Forums are active, friendly, helpful, and fast. You can hardly refresh b4 having your questions answered.

Staff here are great. It is hard to believe they are not getting paid. So for I have seen only 1 problem come up. But they were on it like flies to a corps. Plus, they actually listen to players, unlike some games I have played. They dont seem to have the “Its our game, if you dont like it, dont play.” mentality that I have seen kill some other good mmorpgs.

The game is very addictive. I find myself waking every couple of hours just to check my company. I dont need to do this, my staff are all great, but I still do.

TO has to be the most comprehensive tycoon sim online today. I should know I do google searches for new ones nearly every month. With the consistent user input and the continuous updating, TO can only get better.

In short, THANK YOU, I love this game. All of the people behind the screen are doin a great job.

Thank you for the new changes! It sounds great and I can’t wait. I like that you can send your employees to training. And the tax option is perfect! Looking forward to it!

A more simplified and equivalent equation:

base efficiency * (1 - 0.0002*((age^2+age)/2)))

base efficiency * (1 - (age * (age + 1))/ 10000)

Awesome! Every break, I’ve wished I’d had the forethought/motivation to do this. Thanks Robby.

i’m curious to see how this will affect people upgrading… traditionally, it hasn’t been cost effective to start upgrading until you are finished building, but if we’ll be rebuilding so much more, will upgrading still be a viable option?

Yes exciting changes especially the detoriation of buildnings which really imho can have an impact on strategy. Reduced buildingtime makes it easier TO make drastic changes in the company and the training facility contributes TO this.

I guess I will be here for this round TOo.
