Dramatic changes to skyblock economy

Do I have to say it more than once for people to see it?

No island reset will happen. There will be multiple prices for multiple difficulty levels. Not everyone will have to pay huge amounts for everything. How much do I need to say it for people to listen? You aren't all going to be taking a huge hit ... in fact the game might become EASIER for some of you.

Maybe this will catch everyone's attention that wasn't looking earlier:
What the f*** did you just f***ing say about me, you little b****? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the f*** out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my f***ing words. You think you can get away with saying that s*** to me over the Internet? Think again, f***er. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re f***ing dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable a** off the face of the continent, you little s***. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your f***ing tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will s*** fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re f***ing dead, kiddo.

 

LOL

 

I'll have you know I did listen And I don't believe you because you used angry red font.

 

ummm we won didnt we? island no reset XD what you talking about this gets us nowhere ahahahaha

 

What I meant was the immediate talk of leaving and stuff like that. That really does get no one anywhere ._. Instead of just saying all the bad things it helps to offer criticisms (constructively), ideas, solutions and other such information that can actually help them make their decisions as nuny has said.

 

I thought nuny was Japanesse

 

Yes, I am part Japanese.

 

It's actually a reference to some ridiculous youtube comment, and I was just joking when I put it there. It's really big so I thought people would see it, and yes I do know that you have read my stuff.

 

I know about the quote Lots of facebook pages quote it every 3 days or so. And big? Try blinding.

 

k

 

Try beautiful

 

Suuuuure "beautiful"

 

oh god, that smiley

 

Is it not the best smiley in the whole wide world?

 

How are nunyabz and noobkilla mods? I am incredibly dissapointed in the way the "moderators" on this server act.

 

How about just raising the prices slightly and leave the rest alone?
Of course, mob farm prices should be lowered dramatically, or just outright removing selling mob materials.
Most of the stuff isn't necessary for a farm, the shop should only contain buy prices with a separate pawn shop for the pumpkins, wheat and whatever you make.

As for the iron, diamonds and other stuff, I typically buy them off of auctions. But 300 for an iron ingot, when you just start off dying in the void with your starting materials, is kind of way too high.
I did see the notice about different prices for different difficulties but that's a crock. It wouldn't be possible since some people can just decide to be jerks, pick a lower difficulty and nuke the economy. Plus, how would you even do that without a reset? (other than duplicating the shop and having different prices at different difficulty shops for different /money levels, even allows the creation of a donor area but should be separate command since they might want to play like the proletariat)

It seems like the problem is people at the end stage of their builds care too much about their own island to make a new one (like every other game) yet think their island is too easy. Sure, if you prioritized a mob grinder, you'd make bank. But what if you decided to go conan on the mobs instead? No mob grinder = no crazy money. As for slimes, I thought they only loaded on certain chunks because I almost finished making my 10000 block floor and haven't seen a single slime. The slimes should be taken out of the shop since its such an unfair advantage.


My proposed solution to people having no release is... PVP arena! Forget that mob arena, PVP is so much better and it'll give you a reason to buy all that expensive stuff over and over again. It'll create the hole in which people will have to continuously work for their money to stuff. Or a tax system: every week, 10% goes to the server's government. Some way to get people to spend their money that allows for high disposable income would benefit all.

If you're happy with everything in your 2.5 million block cubed area, then a little pvp might be awesome. Also, we should be able to sell our islands. Like having a duel, with a pink slip. Instead of a car, it'll be an island.

 

Hey, just to let you all know. I have been following this thread since the beginning. I am happy with the agreement to keep the islands but make the prices harsher. Just keep the islands, that is all I want. Have a good Christmas! Bye.

Lol nice colors

 

Like I said, we're probably going to be relying less on trade. The buy prices will be designed for people to be self sufficient, and sell prices will be the same for everyone. If people want to cheat, they can cheat, I don't care. But the point of having multiple difficulties is so that people will get the opportunity to challenge themselves. The reason why I set it up in that manner is because it will allow people to pretty much choose their game style freely. Trust me, there is a lot of work going into this, and we're taking into account exploits. Donors would simply have an advantage and nice things. I believe there is potential for us to make donor items purchasable by normal users, but just at a massive price (I think there will be one shop dedicated to this, so that those special items are always of the same difficulty).
